SSmT1 NIPPONS DEMANDS I FO
Bfi m hope basis xgN
By H. H. UAUKHAUB
(Copyrtcht, 1937, by the North Amer
ican Newspaper Alliance, Inc.) .
WASHINGTON. July 23. When
Vice-President Garner took off his
cent and went to work: at his repair
Job on the administration's senato
. rial machinery, he made it plain that
he wasn't signing up for an all
cummer Job.
The first thing he did was to state
his views privately to the effect that.
If he had his way, he'd close up shop
and let everybody go home and tell
the folks how prosperous they had
become under the New Deal.
He agreed, however, after an Inti
mate conference with administration
leaders, to attempt one chore first.
, It was to try to push through a
plan which he had suggested and
which the administration liked any
way, according to those who are In a
position to speak with assurance on
the administration's preferences. But,
for t very delicate reason. It had not
been feasible to Insist oil- this par
ticular proposal while Senator Robin
son was alive.
The plan, It can be authortattvely
stated, was e, bill the y Ice -president
felt might be Jammed through the
senate with Immediate adjournment
tbereaiter( or at least a recess) as
the price.
It would create an eleven-man
court, an associate Justice for each of
the ten Judicial circuits, with the
chief Justice over all.
A constitutional amendment would
then be offered setting the retirement
age of Justices at 70.
This la the point that worried Mr.
Robinson's friends:
It was considered probable that an
effort would be made to provide that
all appointments to the uupreme
bench thereafter be regional. The
candidate would have to come from
the geographical area within the Cir
cuit made vacant. That would have
eliminated Senator Robinson. As
sociate Justice Butler presides over
tn eighth circuit which Includes not
only his native state of Minnesota
but Arkansas as .well.

Invaders Considered With
drawn Division Anti-Japanese
12,000 Fresh
Troops to North China
PEIPINQ, July 23. (AP) Japanese
army officers tonight announced the
withdrawal of the Chinese 37th divis
ion southward from the Pel ping area
had been completed. This constituted
Chinese compliance with the Japan
ese demand most vital to immediate
restoration of peace In North China.
The final units of the division,
which belongs to the 29th army un
der General Sung Cheh-Yuan, left
the Petplng area at 6 p. m. today (5
a. m.. E-S.T), the Japanese said.
Spokesmen for the Japanese mili
tary said they considered the 37tb
division "anti-Japanese, for which
reason It was impossible for It to re
main In Pelplng."
. (The 37th division, commanded b
General Feng Chih-an, contains many
officers who formerly served against
Japanese In Manchuria and are un
reconciled to Japan's conquests).
Japanese officers said that tbe
heavy reinforcements of their forces
In North China In the last two weeks
wan "for the sole purpose of safe
guarding Japanese lives and property
and also supervising Chinese execu
tion of the recent agreements."
(Most reliable reports Indicate that
Japan has sent about 12.000 fresh
troops Into North China to reinforce
the garrison of 7.000. Various Chinese
reports of Japanese preparations to
land 36,000 men northeast of Tient
sin or of actual arrivals of Japanese
troop ships at Tslngtao have not been
confirmed.- -.
(The Japanese assert the cessation
of fighting around Pelplng Is based
on an agreement reached July 19 at
an undisclosed place between their
officers end General Sung Chen
Yuan, who. In addition to command
ing the 29th army. Is chairman of
the Hopeb-Cbahar political council)
Some Chinese still feared that a
major Japanese drive was Impending
against North China.
