a short right nppercut to the

Britain - Hopes to Fix
Quarrels np With
; Germany, Japan '
Settlement " at Tientsin,
Nazi Naval Treaty
Aim of England
(By The Associated Press)
Great Britain moved Wednes
day to settle problems she has on
two sides of the world; she an
nounced that Japan had agreed to
submit the Tientsin quarrel to a
conference in Tokyo and she dis
closed an offer to negotiate a new
naval agreement with Germany.
But the road did not appear
smooth on either front. Whereas
Prime Minister Chamberlain an
nounced that negotiations would
start Immediately ln Tokyo "to
effect a aettlement on various con
ditions relating to Tientsin, Jan-
anese leaders indicated that not
merely the Tientsin Issues, but the
entire question of British "coop
eration in Japan's program for a
"new order ln east Asia" would be
on the agenda.
Old Pact's Fate
Is Pointedly Recalled
And in offering to negotiate a
new naval agreement with Berlin,
replacing that which Chancellor
Hitler scrapped April 28. Britain
pointedly asked what assurances
Germany could give that a new
pact would not meet the aame fate
as the old.
The naval agreement offer was
contained in a note in which the
British government wrote a de
fense of Its new policy of lining
up Europe s smaller .nations ln a
front which the British call an
anti-aggression" bloc and which
the Germans attack as an "en
circlement?, camp.
Concern over Germany's course
made news in several other quar
ters. . Winston Churchill, veteran
untisn leader, predicted a sum
mer of tension, "a period of dan
ger more acute and nor laden
with ugly facts than any which
we have known in the hard, dis
turbed period through which we
have lived our lives." He named
July, August and September as
the crisis months, and he advised
Hitler to "consider well before
yon take the plunge into the ter
rible unknown." .
There was anxiety in Paris.
where Foreign Minister Georges
Bonnet conferred ln quick succes
sion with united SUtes Ambassa
dor William C Bullitt and British
Ambassador Sir Erie Phlpps. He
was said' to have given Informa
tion on German moves in Danzig
which foreign office circles said
might become critical in a short
time.' These circles have ahown
concern over reports that German
officers and soldiers were moving
into Danzig disguised aa tourists
and athletes. They fear a . coup
to regain the free city for Ger
many, an avowed nasi aim. ?
In Warsaw reports were heard
that soldiers of the Danzig free
corps had been drilling all da
long. Poles declared they were
ready to defend themselves . at
"the drop of a bat" and their
declaration waa given ueanlnr by
disclosure that a German, coastal
patrol plane had been turned back
from a prohibited area at the
month of Danzig harbor by Polish
anu-aircrait guns.
In Shanghai United States Con
sul-General Clarence E. Gauss
firmly rejected a Japanese warn
lng for al' foreign Teasels to leave
the ports of Wenchow and Foo-
chow by noon Thursday (11 p. m
Wednesday, EST). He . notified
Japanese officials that Japan
would be held responsible for any
damage to American i terests ln
the two ports, which Japan - de
clared her Intention to occupy.

WASHINGTON, Juno 1 S-tfV
A "compromise' limiting the
neutrality law -embargo to "le

posed today by R p. Barton
(R-NY) during house debate on
the administration's measure to

tion of the noon deadline act by
Japanese for closing of the ports
with "dangerous objects."
Foreign war vessels also were
believed to have moved outside to
escape the possibility of being bot
tied up. Jspanese dispatches said
a British , destroyer had been
trapped inside the Foochow har
bor entrance by Japanese closiag
operations, but British naval offi
cers here stated lt was extremely
unlikely.
Twenty-seven foreigners, includ

to be remaining at Wenchow, oth

Most foreigners declined to leave
