Bat new Year It Ominout
With Perils of Blajoir . j;
War in Evidence
By J. C. -STARK :", -
LONDON, Jan. 1- ( Sunday) -(AVEurope
turned Its back on a
trouble -crowded year whleh
brought lt near war and greeted
1939 today with hopes that peace
would survive new perils already
evident. . .
.For the old world it was an
ominous new year which may set
tle the Ideological conflict between
democracies and dictators. .
Whether that settlement could
be achieved without war was a
question which troubled millions
the world over. ...
. There seemed to be general
agreement among European chan
celleries that new perils lay ahead
and 1939 might - prove decisive.
One British official In predict
ing another critical year said: i
"If we can get through 1939
without war, I think the danger
will be over for several years,"
Omens Are Mixed '. '
. Reichsf uehrer Adolf Hitler,
whose 1938 triumphs were respon
sible for Enrope'i major crises,
gave one hopeful and one disturb-'
ing pointer at the old year's end:
. "We have only one wish that
we may succeed also in the com
ing year to contribute to general
appeasement of the world."
i Bat' less reassuring was Ger
many's surprise notice to Great
Britain that she would take ad
vantage of an escape ' clause in
the 1 1935 Anglo-German natal
agreement to build a submarine
fleet equal to Britain's as a com
plement to her powerful army and
air forces. Under the treaty she
had undertaken a 45-100 sub
marine tonnage ratio.
' In Italy, Germany's axis ally,

paign In which new territorial de
mands In the Mediterranean anf

Many Trouble Zones
The end ot 19IS saw also these
disturbing factors In a troubled
world:
Wars still raged In China and
6paln, with signs lacking of an
early truce in either.
Germany's relations with both
the United States and Britain were
strained severely.
Palestine was suffering from a
bitter Arab-Jewish conflict.
Several . hundred thousands of
Jews In Germany feared 'further
persecution by the nails while
other nations sought to relieve
their plight.
Germany's economic and politi
cal penetration In southeastern
Europe spurred discontent which
signified to some a nasi push to
ward Rumania and the Polish
and soviet Russian Ukralnes.
Hitler dominated European af
fairs in 1938 and . was expected
to do so in 1939.
. But some observers believed the
"aggressive nations" would try to
reduce the risks involved in their
enansion.vBollcles.
P. They based this belief on two
things Chamberlain's pledge
that the British were prepared
"to discharge our obligations to
our allies, the empire and our
Lt as .
sures," ana rearmament and a
more active foreign policy in i the
united states.

Foreign Relations

US Takes Stubborn Stand
Against Japan's Acts .
' as 1938 Closes
WASHINGTON. Dec. 31.-WV-
A point blank , refusal to recog
nise Japan's effort to establish
special privileges tor herself tn
war-devastated China brought to
close today one of the most
hectic years tn the history of
United States foreign affairs.
Standing firmly upon the 40-
year-old principle of the "open
door" in China, this government
took the lead in opposing Jap
anese plans to include China in a
to-called "new order" program In
east Asia, through single-handed
treaty abrogation.
In Its forthright rejection of
the Japanese contention that Ideas
and principles ot the past no
longer were applicable to China,
the state department served no
tice that It "reserves aU rights
of the United States as they, exist
and does not give assent to any
impairment of any of those rights"
in China,
Future Action
This reservation ot rights is
possibly a preliminary to future
action, the nature ot which only
time and the further development
of United States foreign policy
can telL This might even envis
age eventual protection of Ameri
can Interests in China by force,
although there was no belligerent
tone in today's note. . ,

country. U the similar ease ot

NEWPORT, Dec. 31.-flP)ilt was

Seagull- thought he saw a cozy
nook with protection from the
weather.
So he nosed over Into a gentle
glide, banked into the wind,
stalled and eased himself down
inside a, smokestack.
Witnesses 'saw him try unsuc
cessfully to get out. They called
the fire department. The gull,
very sooty, very scared, looking
very silly, was extricated and
carted away by Cliff Davidson,
who tied a tiny bell around Its
neck and turned it loose, i
Newport had a belled gull for.
years but It was found dead, the
other day. This one became Its
successor.
