WAR ON JAPAN BY CHINESE BREWING San Francisco (LP) China will unite eventually for a war of ag gression against Japan, believes Dr. Y. Y.

Dr. Tsu, who is professor of so ciology at Saint John's unverslty, Shanghai, member of the staff of the Union Medical college at Pet ping and oirector of the Pan-Pa-elfic union, came to the United States for the Institute of Interna tional Relations. As regards the present conflict between the Canton and Nanking governments, Dr. Tsu says: "The situation Is much akin to that in the United States Just be fore the Civil war, with the two southern provinces of China mov ing to war and Gen.. Chiang Kai shek, head of the Narking govern ment, trying to hold them together. "The south will not consolidate ' for two reasons Canton is the home of the revolutionists, and sec ondly, the two provinces are de manding Immediate aggression against Japan, whereas Chiang feels that China must play a waiting game. But the eventual aim of all China Is the same namely, aggression, Dr. Tsu Insists. "8ad as it may seen," he says, the time has come when force must be met with force. Japan has left China no other course. England now has special trains which carry nothing I.Jt green peas.

(Asso ciated PrtM Photo) AID IS ASKED FOR FORGOTTEN FISH Honolulu (IP) Federal aid has been asked on behalf of the "for gotten fish" of Hawaiian waters and incidentally the fish with the long est fish name In the world. It Is the humuhumunukunukua pausa. While big game angling and deep sea commercial fishing In Hawaiian waters are all to the good, it has been discovered that things are not going so well for the humuhumu etc. This species, together with oth er smaller fish who remain near the shore, are disappearing. The presumption Is that the feeding grounds are not as good as formerly. As a consequence, Frank H. Lo cey, chairman of the board of agri culture and forestry for the Terri tory of Hawaii, has asked for a fed eral appropriation to permit a sur vey of the living conditions among the smaller fry of Hawaiian fish, including the humuhumunukunuku apausa. It Is hoped to establish a New Deal to rehabilitate the "forgotten fish." Expense Accounts of Early Days Dug Up A travelling expense account made out more than 70 years ago by Col onel C. A.
