Tho American Merchant was bo
Inn tossed about by heavy seas when

Merchant turned her bow and fouuht
her way to the Kxetcr City, 15 miles
away. It took three hours.
The American Merchant was put

A wave cailtfht It and smashed It
OKnlnst the side. A second boat wns
lowered and pulled along the lino
to the Exeter Cltv. Finally, ono by
one, tho crew of the Exeter City slid

One 'of the beasts wns shot when
lle attempted to attack members of
the safari while the other hud o be
prodded with a .stick to make him
stand up so that Wright might shout
him.
The liens were shot to death less
than 200 feel from the cage from
which they were released yester
day. Apparently not knrwing what
was exnectcd of them, they refused
to leave the camp and enter the
underbrush of the 190-acra Island.
. Wright emerged from tho barbed
wire stockade around the camp to
day nnd with several members of
the party attempted to drive the
lions away from the entrance of the
camp. When one of the lions snarled
and started toward the party Wright
fired.
His aim was poor and hc succeed
ed only in wounding tho beast. Ho
fired again as members of tho party
started for nearby trees. A news
paper man succeeded in gaining the
mtt mice of the lion cage and clos
ins tho dror.
As tho animal lay breathing its
Inst, Wright's 14-year-old son,
Charles, administered the coup do
grace with n final shot Into the
lion's head. Meanwhile the second
lion rsfused to move from a pile of
brush where he wns resting.
A native known in tho party enly
as "Indian Joe", secured a long pole
and gently prodded the beast. Lazily
and entirely peaceful, tho lion rose
to his feet. From n distance of HO
feet Wright poured a volley of lend
into his body.

ROBBINS CASE

prohibition bureau's nationwide
rcorch for the nursing Raymond J
bobbins, prohibitum lender, was
criticized caustically at hearings be
fore the house appropriations com
mittee, records made public todny
disclosed.
Bobbins, friend nf President Hoov
'; "' KsnPPwrcd Inst September while
I on "ls w,,y lo 11 White Hcuse lunch-
j co"- ,He w',s discovered after the No
vembor election In the mountains of
North Carolina. Doctors diagnosed
his case as amnesia.
Director of Prohibition Amos W.
W. Woodcock defended the search
conducted bv his bureau when ques
tioned bv Representative Tinkhum.
repn., Mass., an anti-prohibitionist
at hearings on the justice depart
ment's stipply bill.
Tinkhnm suggested that by pur
suing tho course it had in tho Rob
bins case the prohibition bureau
might easily became a "bureau for
the discovery cf disappearing pro
hibitionists''. Woodcock argued that the senrch
wns justified because it had been
reported that Robbins had been kid
nnoncd by bootleggers.
"Is there any authority nt law
which gives you the ripht to expend
money when n prohibitionist dis
appears?" Tinkham demanded.
"No, sir; not at all," Woodcock
answered. "A search for Robbins
could bo justified only ns on n bnsis
of ferreting out violations of tho na
tional prohibition act."
"Suppose Bishop Cannon should
disappear? Would you feel that vou
could spend public funds to find
him?"
"Oh, no, not nt nil. This won n
enmolaint bv n citizen stating that
her husband had been kidnnped bv
violators of the national prohibition
lnw."
Very little wns Spent, he added, In
tho senrch nnd it flnnlly produced
tho correct cine which led to Rob

MACDONALD TO

Problem
AWAIT FORMAL BID
British Markets Cheerful
As Result of American
Announcement
i
I Loudon. Jan. 21. CJ5) The Brit-
J. Iiamu-y MacDonald, well inform
ed political quarters believed today.
While the next step In the war
debte quest.on depended upon the
conU.nt-s of the American note, not
ycl nvived by the government,
there was an air of optimism and
plea.su re in government offices. Offi
cial comment was withheld pmdinq
receipt of the note.
MacDonald is credited with per
sonally achieving the settlement
reached at the Lnusannc reparations
conference, and is expected to lead
efforts to finish "the other half of I
the job.
The prime minister regards the
lebt question as the outstanding
problem of Britain. He wants to
if ivc nis wrsonni aiieoiion. as mum
as possible, to efforts to reach a debt
settlement
Tlie !tock exchange opening was
cheorf ul in view of the United States
.willingness to discuss war debts.
I'Tradintf was limited due to the
(week - end lull. British pilt-edtfed
ftrrnrities opened from 116 to 18
hit'her.
Chancellor of the Exchequer Ne-
ville Chamberlain was expected to 1
budget in March and Anril. The
funding agreement wilh the United
r (States. Politicians believed he would
lx left out, however, because his
inclusion would be certain to start
a controversy here.
Pending receipt of Secretary of i
State Stimson's formal invitation, no j
official action will be taken. Well
informed circle: said, however, that
j the government was disappointed
,that six weeks must elapse before
the British and American represen
tative, can begin work.' and that the
Bntains had hoped to use this time
tn lay a thorough groundwork for
the negotiations.
The government was said still to
j hope preliminary negotiations could
be carried out through diplomatic
channels, before the change in Am
erican administrations.
The British reply to the American
invitation was expect od to be draft
ed at a cabinet meeting Monday.
MacDonald was spending the week
end at Chequers, his country resi
dence. He was informed of devel
opments, but made no comment for
publication.
Chamberlain was at his home in
Birmingham.

OREGON TO USE
SPECIAL FUNDS
Interest Centers in Fin
ancial Struggles. ;.
, Salem, Ore, Jan. 21. (IP) The j
state of Oregon started to borrow
money today from the state bonus
and highwav commissions to run its
v,..,' ti7i.:i i;,i.
business. While legislatures arc on
their way home following adjourn-
ment for the week-end, state officials
are combine the financial bushes for
funds to keep the state off a warrant
basis until new loans can be nego
tiated. The first "touch" will be made on
the veteran's commissicn. which
State Treasurer Holman said Friday
would lend the state $150,000. Furth
er transfers will be made from time
to time as needed from the highway
commission's funds. j
Oregon's financial difficulties have
eclipsed the accomplishments of the
week just closing, which saw Gover
nor Meier issue four special mes
saccs, saw scores of big and little
bills introduced, and was topesd off
with a continuous barrage of state
ments as the Meier-Holman feud of
last July flared up again.
The governor's four messages will
be pondered next week when the
legislature re-convens. He has rec
ommended abolition of the veterans
state aid commission, legislative
curbs to prevent utility crashes, re
staining of the teleDhone monoply,
and has reiterated his plea for the
state to aporopriate $500,000 to spend
on unemployement relief.
Legislators are dubious about vot
ing that $500,000 when Orcton is
'broke" and has p. deficit of almost
$4,000,000. First action probably will
be to raise money to keep the state
off a warrant basis.
One of the Droblems to be weighed
Monday is the bill introduced by
Senator Joe E. Dunne which would
I hBl. o11 highway construction and
realignment projects in the state fcr
1933-34. It is marked lor special
consideration Monday afternoon.

CHINA MUST STAY OUT
Tokio. Jan. 21. (IP) China was
warned by the Japanese government
today to stay out of Jehol province,
scene of impending conflict between
Japanese and Chinese armies, which
Japan regards as an integral part of
the new state of Manchoukuo.
Outlining the government's pol
icies before the imperial Japanese
diet. Foreign Minister Count Uchida
said Japan could not look upon
Chinese military activity ' "without
the omvpt nrtnrphpn.inn". Hp de
clared the "constructive force of
Japan" to be the mainstay of peaca
in the far east. -
Won't Change Policy
Count Uchida made it clear that-
Japanese policy in Alaucnuria would
not be changed, despite mternation-
al efforts to end the Japanese-Chl
uese dispute.
I Count Uchida said Chinese troops
L, on the borde
f Manchoukuo and that "some of
them havs invaded the province of
I Jehol . (China regards Jehol as Chi-
tiese territory: tho troops were con
centrated along the Manchoukuoan '
border after the Japanese penetrated
Shanhaikwan, below the great wall.)
"The Japanese government cannot
look upon such a state of affairs in
China without the gravest appre
hension," he said. "We are compelled
to warn the government and the
people of China against the unfor
tunate eventualties that may arise
from the situation and to invite them
to think seriously before proceeding
further in that direction."
Own "Monroe Doctrine".
Count Uchida advanced for the
orient a doctrine similar to the Mon
roe doctrine.
"It is needless to say that the fun'r
damental principle of Japan's foreign
policy is to secure the peace of the
orient and, as corollary, that of the
world," he said.
"It is imperative to respect those
real forces which are actually rend
ering peace possible in various parts
of the world .... In this sense our
government believes that any plan
for erecting the edifice of peace in
the far east should be based upon
recognition that tho constructive
force of Japan is the mainstay of
tranquility in this part of the world."
He ireiterated previous declara
tions that Japan will continue "to
protect Manchoukuo both internally
and externally".
The foreign minister said the "so
called Jehol question" was purely a
domestic affair of Manchoukuo, but
that Japan was bound by protocol to
join forces with Manchoukuo to
maintain peace and order.
Count Uchida noted the import
ance of harmony between Japan,
Manchoukuo. and soviet Russia. He
said it was not for him to pass judg
ment on tears that restoration of
diplomatic relations between China
and Russia "might add vigor to
communist propoganda throughout
the orient". ,
