Efforts at Truce Slowed by Rumors Of Quo’s Quitting fTlireateiHMl Resignation of Nanking Delegate Hurts y Sino-Japanese Parley By MORRIS J. HARRIS < Associated Pre»» Staff Correspondent) SHANGHAI, April 4— (AP) — The Japanese and Chinese truce negotiations got a little closer to rlay but their progress was dis turbed by an announcement that Quo Tai-Chi, Chinese vice-minister for foreign affairs, intended to re sign as chief delegate of the Nan king government. Last Saturday Quo’s automobile Was stopped by a group of mem bers of a Chinese patriotic organi sation who demanded an unyield ing attitude be taken against Japan. They told the vice-minister China must insist on the surrender by the Japanese of Woosung and Kiangwan, where fighting was heaviest during the recent conflict. Quo informed these Chinese they should make their represen tations through "proper channels" and he never would be u party to any agreement detrimental to China. During today's armistice con ference the Japanese made some concessions, but a Chinese spokes man described them as "unimpor tant." These concessions concern ed the schedule of Japanese troop withdrawals. The Chinese remained adamant in their demand that the Japanese fix a date for complete evacua tion into the International settle ment, while the Japanese were willing only to set a time for the beginning for the withdrawal. Complete evacuation, they said, must depend on circumstances. The conference will be resumed Thursday.

HALL fS Frank Harris believes that in another hundred years Bernard Shaw will never be heard of. Well, Shaw and I are in the same boat, only I have a little edge on him in that I have no reputation to dwindle away into nothingness. I have never been a Fabian nor is it said that I am a party to com munism. I don’t suppose anyone cares. I am going to write a column. 11 have written columns before, but, then, I was known as “The Emer ald.” This time I have no dis guise. Here, there will be no controver sies, no ill feelings aired, and above all, no attempt at humor. It must be made clear that this is not a humor column. Damn humor columns! I am no Aristo phenes or W. S. Gilbert and few others are. Most of them are little Walter Winchells, the only differ ence being that he draws down a salary of $25,000 for radio an nouncing. Without controversy or humor little remains but talk. And I suppose that this column will be that, mostly. There are lots of things to talk about. Michael, Lord of Montaigne found them and filled three volumes. Considering even the looming apathy, I might encourage myself to believe that more students on this campus will read this column than have read Montaigne. I justify this theory on the grounds that their eyes will be led to it daily by the bits of tasty news that will appear on this page. So, I hereby fall in line with the staff of the 1932 Emerald and pass as a daily contributor. Young Professor At Pittsburgh U.

Dr. King explained at length he had concentrated the vitamin from lemon juice. Vitamin C is plentiful in lemons, orunges, tomatoes, po tatoes, and certain other veget ables and fruits.

"We cannot remedy the situation without legislation,” he said. Mr. Hoover also repeated past recommendations for regulation of shipping rates and advocated for this rate regulation a new organi zation comprised of present mem bers of the shipping board, term ing their experience “most valu able.” * President Hoover tempered his remarks about the shipping board by explaining he did not intend to criticize it but was criticizing “an impossible and expensive form of organization and divided responsi bility.” DK.

After several contrary re ports had been investigated it was believed they were returning here, a trip which would require several hours by automobile during the heavy early evening traffic. “A night police bulletin said any information concerning the colo nel’s trip must come from him.” Sensational conjectures sprang from the fact that Lindbergh and Breckinridge carried a suitcase and a blanket when they entered the colonel's plane at Newark. The latest trip of the colonel's made it even more evident that he was determined to do personally whatever might be necessary to restore his son. GLASGOW, SCOTLAND, Apr. 4. —(AP)—Major Charles H.
