HULL ASSURES WALSH
U. S. IS IMPARTIAL

ment officials revealed that Secretary
of State Cordell Hull, in a letter to
Senator David I. Walsh, Democrat of

The letter was written, it was un- :
derstood. after Walsh forwarded to
the State Denartment a protest from
a group of Catholic missionaries in
Japan contending this country had
“r^n-Fned" its mpartial policy.
The protest was based on the State
r Dartmflit'l recent’ action In stat
ing this country had concluded that
J -an's actions n China were in
r -e *:n‘ with her obligations under
the Nine-Power Treaty guaranteeing
the integrity of China
Officials said Hull replied to Walsh
*'- * the Vmtrd States’ stand on the
N'-n -Power Treaty did not abrogate
its policy of neutrality. Hull stated,
was said, this government could
see no reason why it should fail to
v -e objections when treaties to
w'-'rh > wss a partv, were violated.
Tr 1 iter, Hull referred to his
5-r1 «■*'■* Trent of July 16 setting
f — V- T"r:*’d States policy toward

VIEWS ON CHIN A WAR
BILLINGS. Moat.—United Stales
Senator Robert R. Reynolds. Demo
crat. North Carolina, said in an inter
v . a- here today that “Great Britain'
wants the United Stats to rake
chemats out of the fire for her” in
China.
Senator Reynolds who is grand
commander of the Legion of the Loy
al Order uf Moose, arrived to attend
the state convention of the lodge.
“Japan,” he said, “is invading
China to take something that does
not belong to her and Britain has
been expecting it for some time. The
British, with interests in China worth
more than $2,00 .000,000, are ex
tremely desirous of American protec
tion”
The senator said Japan plans to
form an Oriental empire, embracing
China and perhaps Australia. He de
ck-red that the United States “had
better stay out of the conflict and
spend money on crime prevention
within its own borders.”
COMPLAINT
The worried patient wandered into
tk-: doctor’s-office
“Doc,” he complained, “my throat
is bothering me. It’s been giving me
a great deal of trouble.”
The laedie-j reached for the wooden
tp or.
“Open your mouth and say ‘ah,’ he
ordered.
The patient did so. The doctor put
aside the spoon.
“There’s nothing wrong with your
threat,” he announced. “I don't see
hew it can be giving you trouble.
What ar^ the symptoms?”
The patient looked extremely sor
row? uL
“It keeps me broke all the time,”
he stated sadly.
‘ Hmtnm.' mused the medico. That’s
a very odd symptom. I don't pot the
connection.”
The patient sighed.
“Well,” he explained, “every time;
I pet near a saloon, my throat grows
terribly dry!”
