north China campaigns were unt-
standing developments today as
conflict continued savagely over
most of the 2000-mile Chinese war
front.
' The Japanese reported they had
plunged further into Shansi pro
vince, bombed its capital, broken
Chinese armies south of Peiping,
threatened to smash China's cen
tral Hopeh defense lines.
On the Shanghai front the Chi
nese asserted they had recaptured
Lotlen. Cholera became a graver
peril to Shanghai's millions. .
Japanese warships and planes
continued to hairy the sooth
China coasts, but the Chinese
claimed ; without independent
confirmationtheir airforce had
struck back with punishing effect,
sinking one enemy cruiser and
damaging other vessels. Japanese
planes bombed Canton's airport
According to Japanese, General
- Count Julchi Terauchi's command
extended' its advance south, and
southwest of Peiping, where the
capture of Kuanhsien Wednesday
split the Chinese lines.
Calvalry, :i tanks ' and infantry
from Kuanhsien, 30 miles south
of Peiping', was approaching Cho

railway, 40 miles below Peiping
Capture of Chochow would make
the railway useless to the Chinese
north of Paotingf u, their main
base 80 miles southwest of Peip

jective of this Japanese drive.
-Sixty thuosand Japanese were
engaged in this operation against
eight Chinese divisions, about
100,000 men. Commanding the re
treating - Chinese was General
Wan Fu-Lin. .
Japanese army spokesmen said
still larger battles were in pros
pect, with domination of all Ho
pen province at stake.
Military observers believed the
Japanese., unless checked, would
extend their advance west of the
Peiping-Hankow railway toward
the borders of Shansi, into which.

column has penetrated from the

PORTLAND, Sept. 10 .-(fl5)-
W. K. Patrick of the Oregon
Workers' Alliance today charged
relief agencies are responsible for
children staying home from school
because they have ho shoes.
The charges, made before the
city council, will be relayed to
state' and county agencies which
are in charge of relief funds, the
council said.
Patrick alleged relief agencies
refused to act when shown the
need of shoes for school children.
He also asserted some children are

na's appeal to the League of
Nations to halt Japan's inva
sions today was turned over to
the league's resurrected far
eastern advisory committee, of
which the United States waa only
a consultative memoer.
It was decided to send invita
tions soon to Washington and
capitals of 22 other nations
which held places on the original
committee to reconvene to con-
slder the latest oriental crisis,
Hence the question of the Ameri-

matter in Geneva.

Sacredness Is
Borah's Theme
Theory Security Cannot
Coincide With Liberty
Assailed by Senator
- (Continued from page 1)
some great effort those in control
of the political forces of the na
tion have looked down upon the
Bill of Rights as an obstacle to
their aims, the court has proved
ot be as James Madison expressed
the hope and belief it would prove
'an impenetrable bulwark against
every assumption of power in the
legislative or the executive, and
has furthermore resisted 'every
encroachment upon the rights'
which the people had stipulated
in the constitution should never
be disregarded or surrendered."
In behalf of the theory that
"personal liberty has become in
compatible with economic securi
ty," it is argued, he said, that:
"The things to be done are so
big, so vast, that they must be
done by the government and the
citizens must yield up all discre
tion, all judgment, together with
most of his ancient privileges and
his personal liberty.
If. that is true," Borah con
tinued, "we began wrong 150
years ago. If that is true, Wash
ington and Jefferson were wrong
and Mussolini and Hitler are right.
Thia theory would write 'lie'
across the face of the declaration
of independence and 'obsolete-
across the federal constitution
But the theory itself is false,
and has been proven to be false
by all human experience. Personal
liberty, the discretion and Judg
ment of the citizens, are not in
compatible with, but are essential
factors in economic security;
In those countries where the
people have been induced to give
up their rights as free men and
free women under the promise of
economic security, they have lost
both ....
Rights of People
Declared Sacred
"Will those who contend that
the constitution I not sacred go
so far as to say that the right of
the people to determine the form
of government under which they
live is not sacred, that liberty is
not sacred, that to be free from
arbitrary arrests ahd the torture
chamber is not sacred, that the
right to live your faith and wor-
ship your God unmolested is not
sacred?
"If they will not go so far as
to say these things are not sacred.
then let us remember that upon
tne exclusive power of the people
to make their constitution and to
keep it as they make it, or amend
it, as they choose, all these sacred
things depend. When the neonle
lose control of their constitution.
tney nave already lost control of
their government! It is an old
story that when the people lose
power, they lose liberty.
"I may have the wrong concep
tion of the word sacred. But I feel
that an instrument of government.

the president "seeks the power
to Influence the decision of the
supreme court by appointing to
it a majority of puppets of his

Fish's veiled attack on other
members of congress was made
in a statement in which he said
responsibility for Black's ap

the president."
He suggested that "if Klan

to find out the status of the
speaker of the house (Rep

hails from Alabama."
Charles E. Cropley, clerk of

"My stomach was so gassy and
upset that everything I ate dis
agreed with me," said Mrs. Sie

of all, and my meals wouldn't di

ly and I kept losing strength until
I felt worn-out all the time. My
kidneys were sluggish, causing
such a misery all through my
back and around my kidneys that
I can hardly even describe it. The
sharp pains were something aw
ful. I was so stiff and sore in my
back that I could hardly take
step without flinching, and when
I tried to stoop over, the pains
would almost stifle me! My
bowels were sluggish and I had
to take strong physics and this
sluggishness finally filled my
