Japan Rejects Peace Proposals of America and European
Powers—Mellon Quits Treasury to Be
Ambassador to London.

United States and the great European

were shelled.
While the attack on the Woosung
forts was going on Admiral Montgom¬
ery M. Taylor, commander of American
Asiatic fleet, arrived in the Whang¬
poo aboard his flagship, the cruiser
Houston, from Manila, and the Ameri
con forces for the protection of our
nationals in China were reinforced
also by nearly every warship that had
been in the Philippines, together with
the Thirty-first regiment of regular in¬
fantry. Great Britain, France, Italy
and Portugal also rushed warships
and troops to the China coast.
America and England, supported by
France and Italy, proposed in Tokyo
through their ambassadors a plan for
restoring peace that embraced these
points:
1. Cessation of all acts of violence
on both sides at once on the following
terms :
2. No further mobilization or prep¬
arations whatever for further hostil¬
ities.
3. Withdrawal of both Japanese and
Chinese combatants from all points of
mutual contact in the Shanghai area.
4. Protection of the international
settlement by the establishment of
neutral zones, these zones to be po¬
liced by neutral nations and arrange¬
ments to be set up by consular au¬
thorities on the spot,
5. Upon acceptance of these condi¬
tions a prompt advance to be made
by negotiations to settle all outstand¬
ing controversies between the two par¬
ties in the spirit of the treaty of Paris
and the resolution of the League of
Nations of December 9, without prior
demand or reservation and with the
aid of neutral observers or partici¬
pants.
After the emperor had been consult¬
ed the government announced that it
rejected the second and fifth proposals
and accepted the others conditionally.
rMMEDIATE reason for the protests
1 of the powers against Japanese ag¬
gression in Shanghai was found in the
persistent violations of the neutrality
of the international
settlement by the Jap¬
anese. They took pos¬
session of the Hong
kevv section and made
it the base of their
operations against
Chapei, the native
quarter, where
Chinese were still
putting up a strong
resistence and driving
their foes back by
force of numbers. Ed¬
win S. Cunningham,
American consul
eral and head of the consular body
there, was in the thick of things con¬
tinuously, striving not only to curb
the Japanese but also to bring about
a cessation of hostilities. Once or
twice he and his colleagues did ar¬
range truces, but these were prompt¬
ly violated and the fighting began ail
over again. For the details of that
fighting there is no room in these col¬
umns.
China’s government offices were re¬
moved from Nanking to Honanfu, 500
miles in the interior, in anticipation
of an attack on the capital, and that
attack soon followed. Two cruisers
and a destroyer shelled the Nanking
forts and parts of the city. As usual
the Japanese had their excuse ready,
asserting that the Chinese fired the
first shots. However, correspondents
aver that neither the forts nor the
two old Chinese warships there re¬
plied to the Japanese fire. The popula¬
tion of the city was panic stricken
and fled to the open country. Soon
after the shelling the evacuation of
the American citizens there was be¬
gun, although the firing had not been
resumed.
Members of the League of Nations
council held a special session in Ge¬
neva and were told b.v J, H. Thomas,
British secretary for dominions, about
the peace proposals put forward b.v
the powers. There was a report there
that Japan was planning to announce
her withdrawal from the nine-power
Pacific pact and also from the Wash¬
ington naval agreement of 1922.
D ETIRING from the position of
•A secretary of the treasury, which
he has held since 1921, Andrew W.
Mellon becomes the American ambas¬
sador to Great Britain. This was an¬
nounced by President Hoover in a
j statement in which he gracefully
i called Mr. Mellon “one of our wisest
less warfare on China.
Developments came
swiftly and continu¬
ously and as the week
drew toward its close
the situation was be¬
coming more and more
critical. Attacks on
Shanghai by land, sea
and air were renewed
twice within 48 hours;
the Woosung forts at
the mouth of the
Whangpoo were bom
barded; Nanking and

and most experienced public servants.”
The new ambassador is seventy-sev¬
en years old and his health of late
has been so poor that Undersecretary
Ogden L. Mills has been doing most
of his work. Mr. Mills was named by
the President to succeed Mr, Mellon
as secretary of the treasury.
ATURALLY the opening of the !n
ternational disarmament confer¬
ence in Geneva was clouded by the
discouraging situation in the Orient.
.
Arthur
Henderson
ing what the meeting should accom¬
plish.
“I refuse to contemplate even the
possibility of failure,” Mr. Henderson
said. “If we fail no one can foretell
the evil consequences that might en¬
sue."
With regard to the Chino-Japanese
conflict, he said:
“We feel bound to refer to the
tragic fact that at the very moment
this conference, whose purpose is to
promote peace, begins its work, we
are confronted with such a situation
of extreme gravity as that which now
exists in the Far East.
“It is imperative that all signa¬
tories of the covenant of the League
of Nations and the Briand-Kellogg
pact make it their business to insure
strict observance of these two great
safeguards against acts of violence
and war.”
After the preliminaries and the
organization of the conference the
thousand or so delegates adjourned
until the following week to prepare
for the long drawn out sessions and
protracted discussions. The most
prominent statesmen were not ex¬
pected before February 8. When Sec¬
retary of State Stimsgn, head of the
American delegation, would arrive
was uncertain.
jnOV. LX a leading FRANKLIN aspirant D. for ROOSEVELT, the Demo¬
cratic Presidential nomination, has de¬
clared himself opposed to American
membership in the League of Nations
in an address before the New York
state grange. In this he follows the
lead of Newton D. Baker, also a Pres¬
idential possibility, who recently said
that while he still believed in the
league, he would not have the United
States join in while popular opinion
was against it.
Governor Roosevelt said he had no
apology for having worked and spokc-n
in behalf of American participation in
the league when he was the Democrat¬
ic Vice Presidential candidate twelve
years ago. He added: “The league
is not the league conceived by Wood
row Wilson. Rather, it is a mere
meeting place for the political discus¬
sion of strictly European difficulties.”
Other pronouncements by Roosevelt
were that Europe’s debts to America
should not be canceled, and that an
international trade conference should
be called to level tariff barriers.
^ CUCCESS crowned the efforts of the
railway presidents and represent¬
atives of rail labor unions in their
sessions in A formal
pact was signed
which the unions ac¬
cepted a wage reduc¬
tion of 10 per cent
for one year, begin¬
ning February 1. The
deduction is made
from each pay check
on every pay day, bur
the basic or legal
wage is not disturbed
and the full rates will
be restored on Janu¬
ary 31, 1933.
A separate agree¬
ment, in which the
railroads made certain concessions
along the lines of a program proposed
by labor for the betterment of work¬
ing conditions and the relief of unem¬
ployment, was signed simultaneously
with the wage pact.
Leaders in the negotiations were
David Brown Robertson, chairman ot
the Railway Labor Executives’ asso¬
ciation, and Daniel Willard, president
of the Baltimore & Ohio railway.
LTEADS of the leading civic organiz
* ■* ations of the country met in
Washington on Saturday, summoned
by President Hoover to dismiss and
form a national organization for the
purpose of conducting a campaign
against depression and bringing out
hoarded money. According to figures
given by the President, a total of
more than $1,300,000,000 of American
money ha.i been hoarded during the

JESUS THE GOOD SHEPHERD
LESSON TEXT—John 10 : 1 - 30 .
GOLDEN TEXT—The Lord is my
shepherd; I shall not want.
PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus Our Good
Shepherd. Good
JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus Our
Shepherd.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP¬
IC—Following the Good Shepherd.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP¬
IC—Jesus the Good Shepherd.
The occasion for the parable of the
Good Shepherd was the excommunica¬
tion by the Pharisees of the Wind man
-who had been healed b.v Christ.
I. The Good Shepherd (vv. 1-18).
1. Jesus is tlie true shepherd (vv.
I- 0). He came by the divinely ap¬
pointed way. John the Baptist and
others of the prophets had performed
the function of the porter and opened
the door to the sheepfold (vv. 2, 3).
The power exercised by the Pharisees
in casting out this man was not ob¬
tained by lawful means. It was stolen
by them and exercised in the hold
spirit of robbers. The reason the man
suffered excommunication was that
he recognized Jesus as the true shep¬
herd and turned from the Pharisees,
not only as strangers, but as thieves
and robbers. Despite the deceit, au¬
dacity, theft, and robbery of these
Pharisees, those who were Christ’s
sheep were declared to be forming a
new flock and following him as the
true shepherd (v. 4).
2. Jesus is the door of the sheep (vv.
7-10). The way to fellowship with
God is through Christ. He is not only
a door, but the only door (Acts 4:12).
There is absolutely no way into the
fold of tlie redeemed but by and
through him. All who attempt to
gain, access to God except through
Jesus Christ are thieves and rob¬
bers (v. 8.) Those who become
members of the flock of God through
Jesus Christ enjoy marvelous priv¬
ileges and gifts (vv. 9, 10).
a. Salvation—“shall he saved" (v.
9). They not only enjoyed present
salvation, but are eternally saved (vv.
27, 28).
b. Liberty—“shall go in and out” (v.
9). Only those who accept salvation
in Christ know what freedom is.
c. Contentment—“shall go in and
out and find pasture” (v. 9.) The one
who really enters the fold by Christ,
the door, receives that which is all
satisfying to the soul.
3. Jesus is tlie good shepherd (vv.
II- 18).
a. He giveth his life for the sheep
(vv. 11-13). The hireling abandons
his sheep in time of danger. The
hireling, represented by the Pharisee,
takes up his work and continues it for
his own sake, for the profit that is in
it. Jesus was so devoted to his sheep
that he willingly laid down his life for
them.
V>. He has perfect knowledge of his
sheep and they know him (vv. 14, 15).
Knowing his sheep so well, he looks
after their welfare. He enjoys such
personal intimacy with his sheep that
he knows them by name, goes before
them to lead the way and defend them
from every danger.
c. His sympathy is world wide (v.
1C). He declared, “Other sheep have
I which are not of this fold.” This
suggests that the Gentiles have a
place in his fold.
d. He enjoys the love of the heav¬
enly Father (vv. 17, IS).
II. The Sheep (vv. 19-30).
1. Unbelievers are not Christ’s sheep
(vv. 19-2G). Christ’s assertion that tie
was the good shepherd caused a di¬
vision among the people. Some ac¬
cused him of being mad, others that
he had a devil. To their request that
he would tell them plainly if he were
tlie Christ, he responded by referring
them to tlie testimony of his works,
declaring that the secret of their in
ahility to recognize him was their un¬
belief.
2. His sheep recognize his voice (v.
27.) There are ninny voices in tlie
world: the voice of tlie hireling, the
voice of tlie thief, and the voice of
the stranger; but none of these v ill
the sheep hear. Tlie voice of the true
shepherd is recognized by his sheep
even amidst the babble of voices in
the world today.
3. He knows his sheep (v. 27). Re¬
gardless of how helpless and ignorant
the sheep may he, he knows every
one and he looks after them.
4. His sheep follow him (v. 27).
This is the proof that they are his.
The true sheep will flee from stran¬
gers (v. 5). This should he a solemn
warning to ail such as are following
strangers.
5. His sheep are eternally secure
(vv. 28, 29). The sheep nre entirely
dependent upon the shepherd, rt is
the shepherd’s business to look after
and care for the sheep.

CHILD need
REGULATING?
CASTORIA WILL
DO ITI
When your child needs regulating,
remember this: the organs of babies
and children are delicate. Little
bowels must be gently urged—never
forced. That’s why Castoria is used
by so many doctors and mothers. It
is specially made for children’s ail¬
ments; contains no harsh, harmful
drugs, no narcotics. You can safely
give it to young infants for colic
pains. Yet it is an equally effective
regulator for older children. The next
time your child has a little cold or
fever, or a digestive upset, give him
the help of Castoria, the children’3
own remedy. Genuine Castoria al¬
ways has thp name:

Swedes Enjoy Long Life
A Swedish record for longevity
seems to litjie l^e held by tlie inhabitants
of the parish of Kisa, in cen¬
tral Sweden. The latest figures
showed that out of a population of
4,000, 92 persoons were over eighty,
and of these, ten were over ninety.
Some years ago Kisa had Sweden’s
oldest inhabitant, the farmer Sven
Eriksson, who died at one hundred
and five and a half years
The orator who deals largely in
quotations speaks volumes.

California had the biggest number
of bears in national forests in 1930,
having 8,984 black bears and a num¬
ber of grizzly bears reported. This
is as near to a definite census of
hears as can be reached in this coun¬

ADVISES HEAT OF
RED PEPPERS FOR
RHEUMATISM
Brings Almost Instant Relief
When the intolerable pains of rheu¬
matism or aches or neuritis or lumbago
drive you nearly mad ... don’t forget
the marvelous heat Nature put into red
peppers. For it is this penetrating beat
that relieves all pain as it soothes and
gets down under the skin, seeming to
clear up inflammation instantly. It is
this genuine red pepper's beat that is
now contained in an ointment called
Rowles Red Pepper Rub. As you rub
it in you can feel relief come. There’s
nothing better for breaking up a danger¬
ous chest cold, either. All druggists
sell Rowles Red Pepper Rub in
convenient jars.
