R o y a l Family And Statesmen T u r n , F r o m Momentous Task Planning For Christmas Holidays.

LONDON, Dec. 15——(CP-Havas)— Few signs were in evidence in Lon- don tonight of the protracted crisis which culminated in Edward VIlYs abdication and his brother's accos- s’on to the Throne as George VI.

Both the Royal Family and the statesmen who wore their nerves almost to the breaking point during the emergency turned their eyes with relief toward the impending Christmas holidays.

Prime Minister Baldwin prepared to leave London after tomorrow af- ternoon's cabinet meeting for a tour-day stay at Chequers, his country estate. He will return to Downﬁig Street next Monday to pass two days in routine business, and then will go to his home in Worcestershire for a well-earned rest until after the New Year.

UNITS DWARFED

(Continued from page 1)

The new militia is reduced from 36 cavalry regiments to 20, of which four are armored car units.

The 135 infantry regiments are whittled to 91. These are made up of 59 riﬂe battalions, 26 machine gun battalions and six tank batta- 'ions. "

Artillery is increased by 52 new units. Field artillery batteries will henceforth number 110, an increase of 411, medium batteries are in-

l creased from 25 to 3i. The heavy

batteries remain us at presenLtwo, while the coast brigades are unal- tered at two. However, anti-air- craft units are increased from one, plus two sections, to six, plus two sections, an increase of ﬁve.

i Miivrsnsivs STATEMENT

In his statement announcing the reorganization, the Minister said:

"In effecting reorganization of the Non-Permanent Active Militia the following principles were fol. lowed:

"1. Reduction .of the establish- neni: to dimensions consistent with what could be mobilized and main- tained, having regard to popping- ion and ﬁnancial ability.

"2. Adoption of forms of organi- zation appropriate to modern me- chanized equipment.

"3. Distribution of units (as to strength and. character of service) in proportion to density of popu- lation and the dominant occupat- ional characteristics in the various areas.

"4. Desirubility of limiting to a, minimum the disturbance of exist- ing units. efficient units surplus to future requirements being permit- ted to convert to other and neces- sary types.

"5. Preservation in new and am- algumated units of the battle hon- ors, traditions, and, part at least, of the names of former units.

"B. Full consultation with the military districts and local militia officers."

The statement contained an ac- count of the following steps lend- ing up to the reorganization and iin analysis of the changes effect- ed,

POST WAR STRENGTH

Immediately after the war, est- ablishment of the Canadian militia was set at 11 divisions and four cavalry divisions.

In i931 an international disarm- ament conference was summoned to meet at Geneva on I-‘cb. 8, 1932. Canada notified the secretariat that in future her land forces would be limited to six divisions. one cavalry division, and certain fortress and ancillary troops.

Although this decision was made by the Government in 193i, no in- structions to put it into effect were issued up to the time when the present Minister took office on Oct 3S, 1935.

0n Dec. 4, i995. a report wulaid before the Minister, containing a suggested scheme for reorganizat- ion. The Minister thereupon gave instructions to proceed.

The reorganization is now com- pleted. A few inactive units have been disbanded. ‘Thirty-six cavalry regiments have been reduced to 16 cavalry regiments, and four armor- ed car regiments.

A total of 135 infantry and ma- chine gun battalions have been re- duced to 59 riﬂe battalions, 26 ma- chine gun battalions, and six tank battalions.

By conversion of cavalry and in- fantry units and by formation of new units, the Royal Canadian!“- tiilery has been increased by 4 field batteries. six medium batter- ice, and ﬂve anti-aircraft batteries.

some new batteries have not yet been organized. These will beset up only as conditions in the districts require them.

Authority has been given for es- tablishment of the Royal Canadian Engineers to 20 additional compan-

iLS. Peace Projectl Met With Approval‘

(A.P. by Guardian's Special Wire)

BUEONOS AIRES, Dec. 15 — A revised United States project to co- ordinate ﬂve existing agreements into a workable plan to keep peace in the western hemisphere moved tonight toward approval by the Inter-American Peace Conference tomorrow. .

The formula, based on a propo- sal by Cordell Hull, United States Secretary of State, won advance approval of 15 of the 21 delega- tions at the parley after being somewhat altered to suit Argen- tine.

Its advocate expressed hope the ‘ would have the unanimous ship accorded three prev- ious puns roi- joint consultation in i the event of American or foreigni war. non-intervention by a single nation in mother's affairs and ra- tiﬁcation by all the American re- publics of the existing inter-Amer- ican peace pacts.

The conference was to meet in plenary session tomorrow to con- sider projccts which had passed through committees; and sponsors of the revised United States pro- posai voiced hope it would be ready for that session.

When he captured the Nan- king Generalissimi) and his chief lieutenants at Sian-Fu he broad- cast demands for immediate hos- tilities agaiizst Japan, recovery of Manchoukuo for Ciiiiza and re- cognition of Communism.

Doubt Held

(Because Marshal Chang's broad- cast runairied the only authority for new: of the Sian-Fu assassin- ations some doubt remained of its , veracity, in view or the possibility that the "Young Marshal" might have made his shocking statement . to intensify China's paiii: for his own purposes. Tiiroughcu: China and Japan, however, his story was generally credited.

TOKYO, Dec. l5—Thc foreign office continued‘ today to study evidences of Communist instig- ation of Marshal Chang Hsueh- Liangﬂ; revolt in China, while feeling grew in Tokyo that Japan may have to intervene in her neigh- bor's crisis, especially if it de- velops that Soviet Ru sia i. in- volved. ' .

Officials expressed fears: that fl. general war llli'_, t resuitif Iiussia supported the rebellion in Sliensi. Convinced of the death of the leader of the Nanking regime, Gen- eral Chiang Kai-slick, Japanese leaders igresaw grave troubles for the Chinese nation.

(Many hours before Chang l-Luch-Liazig diamatiealiy announced that General Chiang and many of his ranking gener- als had been slain at Sviti-Fu, the I Japanese f< reign mini; Hacliiro Arita, told a cabinet session he be- i lieved General Chiang was dead.)

“Chang Hsueh-Liang has dem- onstrated to us in person the nec- easity of‘ the German-Japanese agreement," a. foreign officci spokesman said.

Admiral Nobumasa Suctsugu, . former COlllITlfilldC'l'-ill-Cili0i' of l Japan's sea forces, said if Russia should intervene the whole of , China might be plunged into civil war. Japan, he said, might be for- ced to become an unwilling parti- ‘ clpant to protect its nationals in’ China.

Far more complications than these faced Chiang and its Central Government. The Generalissimo

was a conquering hero in 1923 when he captured Peking and re- named the old capital Peiping. He was inslalied as chairman of the National Government in October of that year. '

But great areas eluded his con- trol, though he proved his mettle as a military commander and as a slireivd politician. He bought vic- tories with Government money. "Silver bullets" they called his cash.

A population of 41,000,000 was alienated by the independence of Manclioukuo, Outer Mongolia, Sin- kiang and Tibet and thousands of "quare miles of thinly-populated territory was unavailable for im- migration from crowded parts of China.

Japanese Inﬂuence

In' addition, "autonomy," with Japanese backing, was claimed for the five northern provinces of l-fopei. Chahar, Suiyuan, Siiansi and Slinritung, seriousy impairing Nankings authority in these five provinces with an area of 390,000 square miles and a population of 90,000,000.

After the meeting the German representative left for Berlin to, consult his government.

Three methods to halt. at: traffic ‘ with the Spanish belligerents were suggested:

, i. International mpervision of and bee: in every European country.

2. Establishment of’ likening posts at 37-mile intervals along the entire Spanish coast and frdiltiers. l

3. Supervision of all possible. landing ﬂelds in Spain.

Germany's refusal and Portugal's reluctance to permit installation of international control bodies on their territories prompted the call- ing of tonight's meeting in an ef- fort to formulate further schemes.

The experts recognized the ex- treme difficuity of applying either the second or the third proposal. The German representative was particularly firm in the conviction it could not be done.

In the House of Commons this afternoon, Eden apprised themem- bers of recent negotiations regard- ing the Spanish situation.

"As has already been made pub- lie," he said, "His Majesty's Gov- ernment and the French Govern- ment huvo nocmtly exchanged views on the affiliation created by the prolongation of die oivil war in Spain and the dangers for Eur- opean peace involved thereby.
