and Move to Nationalize
All Church Property
MADIUDE, Oct. 14. (AP)
Manuel Azana, minister of war
In the Altai a Zamora cabinet,
was nominated by the assembly
minorities group tonight to suc
ceed President Niceto Alcala Za
mora, who resigned this after
noon. MADRID, Oct. 14. (AP) Niceto
Alcala Zamora resigned today as presi
dent of the Spanish republic, six
months to the day after he was pro
visionally elected to that office.
He is represented as opposed to the
action of the national assembly In
approving a constitutional amend
ment which would dissolve all church
orders and nationalize their property.
The president -offered 'his resigna
tion once before recently, but with
drew It when members of his cabinet
presuaded him to remain In office.1
This time, however, he said it would
be impossible to reconsider his de
cision. The repudiation of Catholicism as
the state religion of Spain was fol
lowed today by the incorporation of
an article in th new constitution
which threatens church orders with
extinction. .
In Stormy Session.
The national assembly, after: a
stormy 15-hour session, adopted by
a vote of 269 to 178 a compromise
amendment to article 24, providing
for the dissolution of those orders
recognizing a higher authority than
the state and those considered dan
gerous to the state. It also stipulates
that property may be nationalized
where It Is deemed beneficial. .
The vote was preceded by a long
drawn-out debate In which Catholic
deputies proposed 20 other amend
ments, one by one, in order to de
fend the Interests of the church, and
was followed by an outbreak of flst
flghting between Catholics and soc
ialists on the chamber floor.
Cut Age Old Union.
The Catholic church was divorced
from its age-old union with the state
with the adoption of article 8 of the
constitution by the assembly last
night, voting 267 to 41. It declared
that "No state religion exists" and
banned the church from engaging in
commercial, industrial and education
al activities.
It was followed by demonstrations
against the church in Madrid and
Ovledo, In which extra police and
civil guards were called out to pre
vent disorders.
The defection of Spain leaves Bel
glum, Italy, Bolivia. Colombia, Vene
zuela, Argentina, Peru and Paraguay
as the principal nations In which
Catholicism Is the state religion.
Countries that have separated church
and state In recent years Include
Prance, Portugal, Mexico, Chile and
Russia.

China Government Fears
Direct Conversations May
Tend to Delay Evacuation
Japanese in Manchuria
GENEVA, Oct. 14. (AP) The
league of Nations council decided to
day to Invite the United Slates to
Join in seeking a settlement of the
Manchurlan troubles between China
and Japan, but encountered Japanese
opposition.
The council thereupon agreed to
await an official statement from
Tokyo In the hope that the opposi
tion would be withdrawn, but with
the expectation in unofficial quar
ters that the council was prepared to
invite the United States to partici
pate even over the Japanese objec
tion. TOKYO, Oct. 14. (P) Prelimi
nary conversations designed to open
the way for direct negotiations be
tween Japan and China for settle
ment of their controversy over Man
churia, resulted in failure today.
For the time being, at least, there
will be no further private conversa
tions between Baron Shldehara, Jap
anese foreign minister, and Chiang
Tso-Pin, Chinese minister to Japan.
The Nanking government was rep
resented as having taken the view
that any further such talks might
be misconstrued as Indicating China's
willingness to enter Into direct nego
tiations with Japan before the latter
evacuated the occupied districts.
Insist On Withdrawal.
Vernacular reports of the conversa
tion here Monday between Chiang
Tso-Pin, and Baron Shldehara Indi
cated the Chinese envoy had Insisted
upon the withdrawal of Japanese
troops from.' Manchuria as a pre
requisite to any immediate negotia
tions. 1 The Japanese foreign minister was
represented as having taken the at
titude that since his country's prin
cipal Interest In Manchuria was the
protection of Japanese lives and
property, China would have to give
assurance of this before Japanese
soldiers could be recalled.
Appeal to League.
Instead of seeking settlement of
the question by direct negotiation
with Japan, China appealed to the
League of Nations, asking Interven
tion, Japan has contended before
the league council that the Man
churlan problem Is one requiring di
rect negotiations between the two
countries, and not a matter war
ranting action by any outside agency.
