a THURSDAY, JULY Z9,1937 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TREP NEWS Of The DAY (By The Associated Press) Chiang Reported Ready To Support Nanking NANKING, July 28.-(P)-The Chi- nese central government tonight was authoritatively reported considering a break in diplomatic relations with Japan. A high official said the government. recognizing the futility of further peace efforts in North China, had ac- cepted "the issue of battle." Formal declaration of war, a for- eign office spokesman declared, is not possible since the Kellogg pact (which outlawed war as an instrument of pol- icy) but he said the Naking govern ment expected hostilities to spread to Central and South China. "It will not be the case of some Chinese soldiers in North China fight- ing the Japanese," he added. "Instead, it will be all of China against Japan." "There is no longer any hesitation in China's foreign policy. Our efforts toward peace have been exhausted. With reluctance we accept the issue to battle and once fighting begins we never surrender."

Major Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE II 11- The News Of The World As Illustrated In Associated Press Pictures 'I English Danee Recital Given Here Tonight Group Of Country Dance Offered At 7:30 P.M. By Catherine Winslow Miss Catharine Winslow of t] physical education department will present a program of English country dancing tonight at 7:30 p.m. today in Barbour Gymnasium. English country dancing is a reviv'a, of the 14th, 15th and 16th century dances which have been discovered rn old manuscripts. The dances are ti type done by the peasants and wer brought over to America by the early settlers. Traces of these dances re- main in the dancing done by the people of the Kentucky Hills and in the folk songs that accompany them. The dances are constructed on fundamental steps which have a defi- nite order and on interludes between the steps. Interesting figures arc formed by the change of movement in progressive lines to form set fig- ures. With the revival of this type of dancing societies of English country dancing have arisen in England and United States. Peiping awaits the rumored appearance of such troops as these to aid the Chinese 29th Army in the battle against a heavy Japanese offensive. Above are shown the flower of the troops of the Nanking central gov- ernment, Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's own guards, who are German-trained and well equipped. Chiang has been credited with a policy of meeting Japanese threats with diplomacy in order to get his crack war machine in readiness for battle. Waiting out a grim situation in China's frigid north country are such soldiers as these, standing guard in rude trenches and protected only with fur-lined helmets as opposed to the steel helmets which only Chiang's own guards possess. At present they fight Japan alone, unsup- ported either by the central government or by the powerful Chinese Red army, standing by to follow Chiang if he feels ready for war.

NATIONAL LEAGUE Taken By Genghis Khan, Walled City Was Capital For Tartars, Emperors The ancient walled city of Peiping, around which the armed forces of China and Japan are fighting, was the seat of the Imperial government from 1409 to 1912, and of the Republic' until 1928. It formerly was called Peking. Long before the Tartar conquest of China by the hordes of Genghis Khan, who captured the city in 1215, it was an important center. In 1264 Kublai Khan built the present Tar- tar city. The third emperor of the Ming dynasty settled there in 1409. Through the ensuing centuries it grew to a population of more than 1,- 500,000 but, after the capital was re- moved in 1928 it dwindled to consid- erably less than a million. The lat- est census gave it 924,334. Most foreign governments still maintain embassies in Peiping but al- so have offices in the new capital, Nanking. Peiping is surrounded by high walls and protected by moats, encompass- ing an area of about 25 square miles. It is located in the province of Chi- hli, now called Hopeh, and is about 70 miles southeast of the .Great Wall built to protect ancient China from invaders. The city is connected by railway with Tientsin and Mukden, giving IWhere To Go 0 rail connections with Europe by means of the great Siberian Railway. It is the largest railway center in China, three main trunk lines and two branch lines starting from there. It is divided into four parts, each rectangular in shape. The Forbidden City is in the center and was formerly ntal Crisis, ry Before1215, the residence of emperors. This cityI is surrounded by the imperial city,! which in its turn is enclosed by the Tartar city, outside and to the south of which is the Chinese city, in which are some of the oldest shops, restaur- ants and theaters in China. Famous landmarks of Peiping are the Coal Hill, North Lake Park, Temple of Heaven (in the Chinese City,) Temple of Confucius and the Lama Temple. In the south part of the Tartar city lies the legation quarter within its own walls and with its own guards. Peiping has a few local industries, chiefly intended for the tourist and art furnishing trade, such as cloi- sonne, enamel ware, carpets, brass and silverware.
