WASHINGTON, Juno 1-(Al1=)— Japan is violating United States rights in China. by refusing to evac- uate American properties and allow their owners to return t0 them. state secretary Hull told the Tokyo Government today in a strongly- woxded note.

The Government at Washington expressed its. “increasing concern" at. Japan's refusal to let American ‘suincss men and missionaries re- turn to the posts in coastal and in- land cities urley formerly occupied. M1‘. Hull regarded as flimsy Japans excuse that "peace and or- der have not been sufficiently re- stored."

He questioned it b calling Jap- an's attention to “t e fact that Japanese civilians are freely per- milted to go into and reside in such areas-ms. fo example. at Naming where some 00 Japanese nationals. including a silizotontial nuntbcr of women and children. are reported to be in residence."

Hope Virtually Aban- doned For Five-year Old Jimmy Cash.

PRINCETON. Fla" June 1—-(AP) A thousand grim-faced men. many bearing arms. vainly combed pai- metto thickets and citrus groves for a trace of kidnapped Jimmy Cash tonight.

As the hunt for the five-ycar-old boy spread through the thinly p01)- ulated territory bordering the Ever- kladles. federal agents in Miami. 25 miles northeast of here. questioned one man regarding the case and two youths picked up by possemen were dispatched there in custody also for questioning.

The parents of the childsnatch- ed from his bed Saturday night. virtually gave up hope he would be returned alive although his father delivered the $10000 ransom de- »manded at a. country road rendez- vous yesterday.

Youths Arrested

The two youths arrested were about 16 years of age. They were brought in handcuffed together. Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation left at once with them for Miami.

Preston Bird. former mayor of Homestead who was in charge of

amilznments for the 28 posses. said »

one posse brought in a sheet of

brown wrapping paper similar to’

those on which the notes demand- ing $10,000 ransom had been writ- ten. This discovery sent a. group of federal nEenls speeding by auto- mobile to the spot on the fringe of the Everglades wfrlere it was found;

The man questioned at Miami

was M. F. Braxron. 50-year-old un- em oyed carpenter. He was ar- resed 100 yards from the Cash home in the midst of the forming searching parties today and sped to the Federal Bureau of Investiga- tion oflice by automobile.

Bears Likeness

At Huntington. N. Y.. meanwhile. a wallet containing a picture of a boy stronrzlv resembling the miss- ing Cash bov was found on a rail- road platform by a freight clerk. The picture was in an envelope on which was written: “Boy held by gunmen and woman. I escaped in the Everglades l6 miles from Princeton across the railroad tracks."

Inspector E. J. Connsllev of the Washington FEB 1.. who organized the hunt today. personally directed the search at the spot where James Bailey Cosh. Sr. tossed a slrorcbox containing thr- $10000 ransom for his son at a parked car early Tues- day morning.
