Thomas J. Walsh of Montana, who had Just resigned as senator to become the new attorney general. passed away on an Atlantic Coast line train near Wilson. N. C., as he was on his way from Flor Ida to Washington. His death was | sudden and was a great shook to his Official associates and his multitude of friends. He was married only a few days before in Havana. Cuba, to Senora Nievea Chaumont de Truffin. a wealthy widow, and she was with him at the time of his demise. Senator Walsh, who was seventythree years old. was horn In Two ltiv ers. Wis. When he resigned he was serving his fourth term in the senate, in which body he served his country ably and faithfully He was consld ered one of the lending authorities on the Constitution. Walsh was permn nent chairman of the I?enio<*ratic na tional conventions of 11124 and 1032. MOST Immediate of the problems before Secretary of State Cordell Hull is the Sino-Japsmese einbroglio. which now is really a war.

The Critish openly hoped that the United States would join in the embargo policy, but there Is strong opposition to this among the members of congress. Senator .lames Hamilton Lewis of Illinois voiced This opposition in a speech in the senate, warning the nation that application of an embargo tgsinst China and Japan or against Japan alone might Involve us in another disastrous foreign war. He told his colleagues that 'T.ritaln already has sold all the arms to both nations they can pay for. and In ad dition has sold them the machinery with which munitions can be manu factored."
