JAPS SPURN
SETTLEMENT
MISSION
TOKYO. Dec. IS (/Pi—Disregard
ing friendly advice of its old ally,
Great Britian, Japan instructed its
delegation at Geneva today to re
ject the proposal that an interna
tional conciliation commission be
created to attempt a settlement of
the 8irto-Japanese controversy over
Manchuria.
Market Breaks
Financial quarters considered the
British manner of approach in mak
ing this proposal to Japan (before
the league had taken definite ac
tion i as a diplomatic reverse for
Japan and there were sharp declines
in the stock market.
Resumption of diplomatic rela
tions between China and Russia, an
nounced yesterday at Geneva, also
contributed to the market decline.
A government spokesman said this
action by what he described as the
nations “mo6t disturbing to the
peac* of the world” was "indirectly
threatening” japan.
It was learned Great Britian had
acted alone in proposing that Japan
accept the commission concilation
scheme and that other powers were
not associated with Its suggestion.
Great Britian pointed out that if
Japan refused conciliation efforts
under paragraph 3 of article 15 of
the league covenant, it probably
would be unavoidable that the lea
gue would proceed with application
of paragraph 4. (Paragraph 3 pro
vides that the league council en
deavor to effect a settlement of dis
putes Paragraph 4 provides that if
this fails, the council by majority
vote shall publish a report of the
facts and recommendations "in re
gard thereto.”! Great Britian hoped
auch action would be unnecessary.
Threatening Japan?
Commenting on resumption of
Sino-Japanese relations, a govern
ment spokesman said the possibi
lity of completion of a Russo-Japa
nese non-aggression pact flow was
greatly diminished.
He challenged the statement of
Maxim Litvinoff. Russian foreign
commissar, that lack of diplomatic
relations between "some nations"
bordering on the Pacific were to
blame for present troubles In Man
churia.
"Evidently meaning the United
States and Russia could have check
ed Japan’s course In the continent
of Asia. M. Litvmoff, it appears, is
angling for American recocrtition
and r 1 m ultaneously indirectly
threatening Japan." the spokesman
said
"If this is Russia’s frame of mind,
thinking of possible alignments of
power against Japan, what is the
use of a non-aggression pact.’
General Held
Meanwhile Japanese officials con
s'dered the information that Gen.
S'.j Ping-Wen. defeated Chinese
Manchurian leader, was being de
tained at Tomsk. Siberia, was an
indirect compliance by Russia with
Jaoaense demands
The information from Moscow was
that he was detained about 2.000
miles west of the point where ha
fled across thp Manchurian bord r
because of lack of funds to continue
a Journey to Europe The general
was reported planning to present his
case against Japan to the league and
Japan demanded his extradition
This was refused bv the Russian
government

NEW YORK. Dec. 13—</P>—Fred
Krause was arrested today for dis
orderly conduct.
There is no glamor, ordinarily,
in disorderly conduct. It has such
a page-nine-in-among-the - adver

however, was no ordinary disorder
ly. As disorderly conduct goes—and

In has day, Fred has been a
trolleycar motorman. He could ring
the bell with the best of them. The
trolley business began to go slight- '
ly blah, and Fred was given his
walking papers—neat enough as a
figure of speech, but undesirable
economically.
Mr. Krause decided last night
he would go for a stroll with his
girl. In happier circumstances h e
might have suggested the theatre
with sandwich and coffee after
ward; but last night it was to be
iust a stroll.* •
Their way led past the carbarns.
Once a trolleycar motorman. al
ways a trolleycar motorman. Krause
was possessed of an overwhelming
urge to see once more the bams—
the dear, old barns—from which
he had been wont to send trolley,
cars rocking forth on their merry
way.
Sure enough, there were the
cars—numbers* 257. 971 and the
rest. Fred sighed and glanced at
his companion. She sighed, too.
She understood how an ex-motor
man feels about a trolleycar.
“Baby," said Krause suddenly.
"I'm going to take you for a ride"
The young lady looked up.
startled, but already she was be
ing propelled toward a car that
stood lighted and ready, on the
track Its motorman had stepped
out for a moment, leaving the
control handle in position.
In a trice she was seated. Fred
took his position at the control
box. One hand rested on the con
trol handle authorit-vely. He
glanced expertly ahead. He gave
the bell two resounding clangs.
The car moved out of the barns
J into the night.
Harry Feeney, the motorman
whose car was being taken, ran |
after it shouting: "Hey! Stop her!"
"What for?" Tnquired Krause,
giving the rocky car full power
ahead. “I don’t see any red light.”
Feeney hailed a cab and took
up pursuit. After several blocks
the streetcar came to a sudden
halt as the traffic light turned
red.
’ That's me all over." said Krause
to the girl Tr end. "Never let it be
said that a Krause ran a red
I light."
About that t!-ne. Feeney and |
some police officers recruited en
route took charge of the situation.
The young lady was advised to go
home on acocunt of some conver
sation they intended to have with
Mr. Krause which they feared
mteht prove annoyine to her. She
went. Now. fellow." sa d an o!- I
fleer to Krause. "Whassaeyedeeyun?
Wh •> 'saevedeeyuh ?"
"The idna,” responded Krause !
"was Just to see how It felt to be
a m-torman again. Besides, l
wanted to give the little lady a
ride."
Hmmoph!" grunted the officer.
And when an officer "hnvnnohs"
i’ means jailhouse in any language.
ASK PERMIT
FOR CAUSEWAY
Application for a permit to
construct an earth fill causeway
across the Laguna Madrc connect
ing the mainland of Port Isabel
with Brazos Island has been filed
with District U. S. Army Engineer
Major Milo p. Fox bv Col. Sam A.
Robertson, owner of Del Mar.
Any objection to the proposed
causeway must be filed with the
war department before Dec. 27. and
a decis on In the permit is ex
pected soon after that time.
A permit for construction of a
timber trestle automobile or;d?e at
approximately the same location
was granted to Col. Rebertson in
1927. but expired in 1929.
The present earth fill causeway
would be connected across the |
ship channel by a barge, arranged
to be moved either by hand or
elect ric.ty, which would carry
automobiles across the channel.
Schools Here Receive
$1.50 Apportionment
The last $1.50 apportionment from
the state for 31-32 has been re
ceived for the common school dis
tricts. The apportionment for the
common schools amounted to $2,844
Independent school districts receive
their apportionment directly where
as those for the common district
are handled through the county
superintendents office.

HIDALGO TRUCK
CASE NEAR END
rSpecial to The Herald)
EDINBURG. Dec 13— Hidalgo
county’s automobile license case suit,
which sought to determine wheth
er or not trucks used for the express
purpose of transporting water to
growing crops or orchards were
subject to license taxation, appears
to be nearing its final stages.
The suit, brought by attorneys
for J. C. Engelman, Inc., Valley de
velopment firm, has been in litiga
tion since March, 1931, has made
one trip to the supreme court and
another appeal is expected to be fil
ed in the .high tribunal within a
short time.
A few days ago, the Fourth court
of Civil appeals in San Antonio
overruled a motion for the state of
Texas in which a rehearing of the
case was sought. This action came
as affirmation of the perpetuation
by the 82nd District court of Hi
dalgo countv of a temporary injunc
tion preventing county and state of
ficials from arresting drivers for
the Engelman on charges of operat
ing motor vehicles without licenses.
The injunction further prevents the
filing of criminal charges against
the men.
T. S. Christopher, assistant attor
ney-general of Austin, stated short- i
ly after the appellate court mad I
known its decision that if the de- j
cision stood, a special session of the
legislature would be required im
mediately to revise the motor regis
tration law so the state could re
tain its right to control traffic on
the highways.
Kennedy Smith of Edinbunr, |
counsel for Encelman. declared that
•'by no stretch of the imagination
could it be considered that com
plete revision of the motor vehicle
registration statutes would become i
necessary.” Smith declared the suit !
sought solely to obtain an interpre
tation of that particular statute re
garding particular trucks and that '
fanners, operating trucks under
identical circumstances naturallv
could operate their vehicles in ac
cordance with the interpretation.

IMPERIAL VALLEY
GETS SNOW BLANKET
LOS ANGELES. Dec. 13 t/P —
In a strange spectacle king winter
invaded an alien kingdom today I
and spread his white robe of snow i
over the great American desert—
where the sun is a scorching tyrant
in the summer, and winter rarely I
comes at all.
In the first measurable quantity I
on record, snow fell throughout I
southern California's Imperial
Vblley, at Yuma. Ariz. and at
Blythe and Need'es, Calif., t \ ig
the northern reaches of the desert
country.
These names are almost synon- !
ymous with heat, ranging from 100
to 120 degrees in summertime.
In the desert country, winter is I
usually only a snappy interlude
between long months of hot
weather, and drv.
Light rains in Imperial Valley
Changed -mo snow beiore last mid
night and left an inch deep man
tle on the ground.
Even more fell at Yuma. North
of there, Mohave county, Arizona,
received its heaviest snow since
1885. Snow was genera! in Arizona.
A depth of four and five feet
was reached in the resort areas of
the San Bernardino mountains,
some 75 miles from Los Angeles,
where subnormal temperatures
prevailed.
Road crews last night finally
opened the highway on the Mo
have desert side of Big Bear Val
ley and liberated dozens of week
end outing visitors, marooned since
Sunday. •
San Gorgonio Pass saw a storm
of almost blizzard proportions and
traffic was halted between Beau
mont and Redlands while city and
state police removed and fed wo
men and children in automobiles
stalled in two feet of snow.
The storm seemed to have moved
from northern California, scene of
an unprecedented winter visitation
the last few days, and gone to the
American desert area, after a lib
eral stop-over in the southern
California mountains.
