JAPANESE START
IT QUEST IN
Diplomats, Merchants and
Builders Follow On Heels
of Advancing Armies
Trade Monopolies Set Up
SHANGHAI. (Correspondence of
the Associated Press) Japan hM
started the second phase of her con
quest of China the job of knitting
conquered areas Into the Rising Sun
empire.
Japanese diplomats, merchants,
builders, professional men, promo
ters and propagandists have followed
close on the heels of her advancing
armies, bent on drawing profit and
power from the vanquished territory
where 200,000.000 Chinese have been
brought under Japanese sway.
They are faced with passive resis
tance of China's millions, active re
sistance of night-riding guerilla ar
mies In the north, and pressure from
neutral powers attempting to stop
the closing of the open door to trade.
Trade Monopolies,
But the pace of political and eco
nomic penetration has quickened un
der the guidance of puppet govern
ments directed from Tokyo.
Trade monopolies have been estab
lished In north China and Inner Mon
golia, Neutral Interests have been
kept out of the Yangtse river valley
because of "military necessity." A
"Greater Shanghai" building plan it
under way which would make the
once Important International settle
ment of Shanghai a small, neutral
Island surrounded by a huge Japanese-dominated
Chinese community.
At the same time, an educational
and cultural program to paint a
Japanese complexion on the face of
conquered territories has bet-c
launched.
A new joint Chinese-Japanese mo
tion picture company, expected to
have a monopoly on importation of
films, is being formed under the
sponsorship of the Japanese, Man
choukuo. North China "provisional
and Central China "reform" govern
ments. Others Lose Out.
American and other foreign busi
ness men in Pelptng and Tientsin re
port once -profitable trade with Inner
Mongolia now is Impossible for their
firms.
The Japanese-sponsored Mongol
border government at Kalgan formed
an oil monopoly, to which It turned
over the marketing of .all petroleum
products. American and British
firms formerly had this market.
All transportation except inner
Mongolia's sole railway Is in the
hands of a similar monopoly, and
the railway is controlled by Japan's
South Manchuria Railway company.
Exports of wool, furs, hides and
skins Inner Mongolia's chief pro
ducts have been banned. They are
to be used to supply the Japanese
army.

EUGENE, Nov. 2. (AP) "Any
thing can happen here!" declared
Hugh Pruett, astronomer at the
University of Oregon, when confront
ed with the qviestion of the possi
bility of an Invasion of the earth
hy men from Mars, so vividly brought
to the American people over a radio
program Sunday nlpht.
However, while there is a very re
mote possibility such an invasion
might take place, there would be
no cause for sudden alarm, Mr.
Pruett said.
He stated that giant telescopes
would discover the departure of
space ships from the planet and
that residents of the U. S. would
have ample time In which to pre
pare to repel the Invasion. It la, he
pointed out, 24 to 34 million miles
from the earth to Mars, and It
would take hundreds and possibly
thousands of years for a space ship
to travel that far.
