CHINESE TEXTILE Tells Conference Foreign Governments Have Caused Evasion of Law. China's protest at the strength of foreign governments in the domestic operation of her own economy was expressed today in a speech by a representative of War Lord Chiang Kai Shek before the representatives of 27 countries attending the World Textile Conference at the Depart mental Auditorium. •'Certain unscrupulous foreign na tionalities,” remarked Zaung-Teh Ing, In explaining difficulties facing any attempt by the Chinese to enforce minimum wage and maximum hour standards for her textile industry, “have even gone so far as to smuggle their goods into China under the protection of armed force, at the connivance of their own governmental authorities, and in such enormous quantities that China has been losing in the amount of uncollected duties at a rate of more than $1,000,000 a week." Ing's speech was the third in ! two days directed at the problem of 1 trying to cope with the unregulated 1 ' competition of foreign textile pro duction and foreign management of textile factories on Chinese soil, 40 per cent of which are run by Japanese [ and 4 per cent by the British. Override Chinese Law. “I am sorry to say,” Ing declared Of this foreign factory ownership, “that there are still nationals of •everal countries who enjoy the princi pals of extraterritoriality in China and have caused the authorities in the •ettlements and concessions to evade and override the Chinese laws, pre venting them from being enforced and thereby creating an unfortunate basis of competition.” To meet the labor problems at tending the rapid growth of textile factories in China, which spread from an industry of fewer than 1,000, 000 spindles in 1915 to one of more than 5.500,000 spindles in 1936, the Nationalist government in 1929 en acted a five-point law for the protec tion of workers, Ing said, but the foreign influence renders its enforce ment not only “impracticable but Impossible.” This law provided the exclusion of i vornen and children from dangerous ' work, for compensation and pensions In the case of accident or death on ' the job, for the installation of sani tary and safety equipment in fac tories, for the prohibition of the labor of children under 14 years of age and ] for an eight-hour day and a six-day week. 11-Hour Day Common. Despite this law. Chu Hsueh-fan, Chinese workers’ delegate to the con ference, pointed out yesterday, “an 11-hour day is common and 11-hour day workers get only 60 cents, Chinese currency, or 18 American cents.” Fan, who expanded an earlier protest by Chinese Employers’ Delegate Kanyo Nieh, added: “Seventy-five per cent ot the work ers in the textile industry in China •re women and children. That means that the future mothers of the Chi nese race are working an 11-hour day and a 60-hour week. That is the intol erable condition of work in the textile factories in China today. But the vital point is that practically 46 per cent of the workers are working in foreign factories owned mostly by the j Japanese. What does this mean? It means that this unfair practice of for eign factory owners in China prevents any amelioration of the working con ditions for the Chinese workers.” i Spain (Continued From First Page.) troops to withdraw to the second range of hills on one of the two principal highways between Vitoria and Bilbao. Pine Forests Fired. The insurgents set afire pine forests to drive back the defenders. Insurgent airplanes fought off at tacks by government planes and dropped pamphlets over the Basque country containing a “last warning” to surrender. Government troops fought desper ately to break through an Insurgent ring of steel protecting the city of Cordoba, in Southern Spain. Seizure of Villaharta would place government fighters In position to cut the Cordoba-Penarroya road and break the insurgents' main line of communication. Withdrawal of troops from the Avila Province, 38 miles west of Ma drid, by Franco to reinforce other lines, enabled government troops to capture Cebreros, 18 miles southeast of the insurgent base of Avila city.

Oayda’s charges, coupled with those ct yesterday that a French general staff was taking over planning of cam paigns, were regarded in diplomatic circles as government inspired. Informed sources, however, de scribed the Italian official attitude as one of “watchful but hopeful wait ing” and insisted Italy did not Intend to take any direct action “for the moment." REFUGEES REACH HENDAYE. Boatloads Leave Bilbao as Insurgents Approach. HENDAYE, Franco-Spanlsh Bor der, April 8 (A5).—Boatloads of refu gees from Bilbao began to arrive In this frontier town today as Spanish Insurgents drove nearer to the Basque capital. Basque circles reported Juan Aguirre, president of the Basque autonomous government, has received an oiler of a *10,000 donation from supporters in the Philippine Islands. DRIVE TOWARD CORDOBA. MADRID, April 8 (&).—The eastern flank of the Spanish Government’s southern army hammered at Villa liarta today, striving, in the face of repeated counter attacks, to break the Insurgent barrier of steel pro tecting the ancient Moorish city of Cordoba. Seizure of Villaharta and a slight southerly push from that point would “bottle up" 15,000 of Gen. Francisco Franco’s troops, and open the way for a swift motorized advance over 28 miles of improved highway to the southeast against Cordoba. The decayed city, a major seat of European culture in the Middle Ages, now is one of the principal bases of Insurgent strength. Franco’s men fought desperately to dislodge Madrid’s troops from advanced positions In proximity to Vlllaharta, but were turned back seven times. Nests of insurgents cut off from the main body of Franco’s force by the drive on Vlllaharta were being cleaned out. Vlllaharta lies just north of the Cordoba - Penarroya road running north and northwest from the provin cial capital and linking Insurgent positions along a broad front extend ing as far as Penarroya, 18 miles from Villaharta. Barcelona dispatches told of fresh victories on the Northeastern Aragon front. Catalonians Advance Near Huesca. Catalonian troops were said to have made a 500-yard advance just south of Huesca, capital of the Aragon prov ince of that name, about 200 miles northeast of Madrid. There was heavy hand-to-hand combat. The government'* Avila offensive, about 38 miles west of Madrid, waa reported facilitated by Franco’* recent withdrawal of force* there to rein force other fronts.
