Lindbergh had had the investiga­tion made himself, and that CoL Lindbergh still believed the infor­mation fron* Virginia? $o have, no "specific stgnlfleance/v. - *

POPULATION OF SHANGHAI DROPS

1, March 25 UP) — The Shanghai public safety bureau in statistics made public today esti­mated that the population of the city had decreased 820.000 since the outbreak of Sino Japanese hostili­ties.

The normal population of Shang­hai is nearly 2,000,000. •

Meanwhile an epidemic of measles which swept into the city some six weeks ago, has shown no abatement Surgeons have been busy with mastoid cases in the wake of measles and influenza, i . viW asiEgBesssasssaaeg&^B

Shanghai, March 25 UP).—Sino-Japanese peace negotiations lagged perceptibly today, while armies of the two nations engaged in snip­ing and skirmishing a few miles outside Shanghai.

Each blamed tbe other for a clash between outposts near Ha­ling, and neither had an official explanation of sniping between troops in the vicinity of Chla-wangmiao, incidents which added to the general uneasiness.

Chinese Cling To Outposts The Chinese defied the 12% mile

ultimatum limit set by the Japanese when they occupied Chiawangmaio recently, and have shown no dis­position to retreat across Soochow Creek as the Japanese have de­manded as late as Wednesday.

The delegates—Chinese, Japanese and neutrals alike—emerged from a three hour session of peace nego­tiations, their forces showing signs of weariness, although the official communique noted, as usual, "some progress was made."

Attempt To Bomb Soong The Chinese insisted there was

no advance in negotiations. Japanese military authorities

said they "hoped positive measures would not have to be taken" at Chi awangmlao, and announced the con­tinued movement of troops of the 11th Division toward Tokyo.

Another disconcerting occurrence was*an attempt on the life of T. V. Soong, finance minister of the Nanking government, the second Ho recent months.

A bomb exploded in the garden of his former home and a daughter of his gardener there was seriously injured. The planters of tbe bomb apparently were unaware that their quarry had departed.

Gloversville Man and Woman Jailed; Girl, 7, Burned

With Hot Poker f * f c s.

Gloversville, March 25 UP). — A man and a woman were in Jail here today accused of brutally mistreat­ing the man's seven-year-old daugh­ter.

The child is Barbara Marie Trow­bridge. The district attorney said she was a mass of bruises, that she had been burned on the soles of her feet and on her hands with a hot poker and that she was almost starved, weighing only 37 pounds.

Her father, Alvin Trowbridge, 28, and her mother are separated. Trowbridge ,the district attorney said, lived with Mrs. Anna Smith, 28. separated from her husband. The pair are charged with second degree assault.

The child's condition was discov­ered when she could not sit in school because of a beating she said she had received.

Await Grand Jury Action -Trowbridge and Mrs. Smith were

arraigned before Police Judge F. Law Comstock here today and were remanded to jail at Johns­town to await action by the grand jury. Both pleaded not guilty to assault charges. Detective Harry Hart was the complainant against the two. The little girl is being cared for in a private home at Gloversville.

According to tho story Barbara told officers she was mistreated to "cure" her of remaining in bed. A stove lifter, heated, was applied to the soles of her feet, the child said, and she also was beaten with it.

Mrs. Smith answered she was only trying to frighten the child with the hot stove lifter. The wo­man said she threatened to burn her if Barbara did not stop those "childish action." The child pushed her foot against the lifter and was burned accldently, Mrs. Smith de­clared.

BY BYRON PRICE

Washington, Mar. 25. (IP).—While tbe political headlines busily rec­ord the steady growth of delegate support behind Herbert Hoover and Franklin D. Roosevelt, events elsewhere also are writing import­ant history in both political par­ties.

For the Democrats, and particu­lar y for the presidential aspirations of Speaker John N. Garner, the tax battle in the House has taken on political aspect.! of extraordinary significance. Among the Hepubli cans, a major uuder-surface agita­tion centers about new demands from both sides with respect to prohibition.

Garner Embarrased Garner's supporters have pre­

sented the record of his Houso leadership as outstanding proof or his availability for the presidency. Now his espousal of the sales tax has been accompanied by at least temporary loss of control, and by political reverberations far exceed­ing expectations.

What will be the ultimate effect on his chances among the voters?

The speaker's friends assert he will not suffer greately In the long run, although thoy plainly are con­cerned at the embarrassments that have clustered about him just at this stage of the campaign. The making of a tax bill Is a long pro­cess. It still is possible the Garner leadership may regain, by some sudden stroke, much of the pres­tige it unquestionably has lost dur­ing the past week.

TORNADO DAMAGE UNDERESTIMATED

Property Loss Placed As High As Five Mil­

lion Dollars Birmingham, Ala.. March 25 (IP).

—The gravity of the South's torna­do aftermath became more appar­ent today as field workers for re­lief forces discovered additional dead, injured and homeless.

C. H. MacFarland, American Red Cross field director for North Alabama, said the devastation brought about by storms In five Southern states early this week had been "vastly under-estimated" and announced establishment of central relief headquarters here.

The net set • up, he explained, will handle relief and rehabilita­tion operations in thirteen Ala­bama counties, ten In Georgia and six in Tennessee, the states hard­est hit. Maurice Reddy, assistant director of disaster relief for the Red Cross, has boen called here from Washington to direct the work.

Known Dead 362 Today the total known dead

stood at 362, divided between Ala­bama with 299, Georgia with 40, Tennessee with 18, South Carolina with 8 and Kentucky with 2.

Unofficial estimates placed the number of Injured above 3,000 and the homeless at 8,500. Proper­ty damage estimates ranged from $3,000,000 to $5,000,000. Numbers of relief workers sent In reports that conditions had been found to be far worse than was realised at first.

Most of the dead have been re-moved from the wreckage and burled and the relief agencies now are concentrating on hospitalisa­tion of the injured, housing the homeless, supplying the wants of the needy and working out a re­habilitation program for the rural and urban centers which suffered most heavily.

Congressman LaGuardia

L'GUARDIA DEFENDS HIS FIBRTTAGTIG8 Must .Be Spectacular To At­

tract Attention, Says N. Y. Congressman

Washington, Mar. 25. UP).— The sales tax was beaten but there was no relaxation for Representative Fiorello H. LaGuardia, of New York, who led tho fight against it.

Snapping his fingers impatiently outside the House ofrice building, he hailed a taxicab and rushed to tbe American Federation of Labor and a meeting to devise ways of beating the proposal for cutting the wages of government employ­es.

LaGuardia listened to sugges­tions and outlined a plan of cam­paign, his voice rising and threat­ening to break into the falsetto that comes when he is profoundly moved.

Brewed Beer In His Office In a few minutes he was outside

again, his hand held up, his fing­ers snapping impatiently for an* other taxicab.

"You think I am spectacular?" he questioned as he settled back in the taxi and started home. "Well, I am. You've got to be to call the attention of the people to the things you believe In. The average man has too much to do to bother with issues unless you dramatize them. Then he'll say:

"Why, I'm for that or against it as the case may be."

There is no doubt that LaGuardia does spectacular things. He made home brew in his office once. He went out on the street another time to "waive immunity" for an attack on Martin J. Insull, power magnate. Those are only two of a long series of Incidents that have attracted at­tention to blm since he first came to Congress in 1917.

Long before that, as consul at Flume In 1904, he drew the atten­tion or his superiors for his refusal to accede to the wish of a Haps-burgh duchess.

ed, pounding his knee until the star­tled taxi-driver cast an apprenhen-slve eye backward.

LaGuardia smoothed his black-hair and settled back again. "You get In the habit of making speeches." he grinned.

After the executive meeting to­day. Crisp said:

"I have no spleen of bitterness but I want to try to get something to raise this enormous amount of rovenue heeded to balance the bud­get. I hope by Monday the sub­committee will have a concrete plan to submit to the full committee.
