found for the new party leader.

Mr. Henry headed the Con- servatives when tliey were ousted fnom office in 1934 and after the election resigned as party leader but continued as house leader. Mr. Rowe was chosen leader of the party at a convention.

Sharing defeat with the leader was George Drew, his chief rival at the convention. Col. Drew con- tested Wellington South as an In- dependent Conservative after breaking with Mr. Rowe over the lattefs stand on labor organiz- ations.

One of the major issues of the_ election was Premier Hepburlfs‘ attitude towards the Committee for Industrial Organization, head- ed by John L. Lewis. When the United Automobile Workers, a union affiliated with the C. I. O. called a strike in Oshawa Mi". Hepburn took a strong stand against what he termed the law- less methods of the organization.

Gordon Conant. the Liberal candidate, was elected in Ontario County which includes the city of Oshawa. Al. the same time the‘ two Ministers who broke with the Premier over his stand on the‘ Oshawa strike were reelected as Liberals. They were Arthur Roe-_ buck in Tomnio-Bellwoods and David Croll in Windsor-Walker- ville.

Comparaiively few close decis- ions were won in today's voting. In many cases both Conservative and Liberal members of the last House were returned with increas- ed majoritles. The Premier him- self boosted his 1934. majority of 2.700 to 5.000.

A notable exception l0 the gcn- eral rule was York East where ex-Prclnici" l-Ieilrys election was in doubt to the ‘ast minute. Even then Mr. Henry's majority was so small a recount appeared likely.

Former Chinese Am- bassador to Wash- ington Pleads For Boycott Of Japan.

(C. P. by Guardian's Special Wire) PEIPING. Oct. 6-—iThursday>— Chinese ti-oqps dug in today along the Peiping llankow railway in . anticipation of a Japanese drive. Resolved to stem the Nipponesel tide, the Chinese weie reported.‘ to have thrown all their available j resources into this area for the; approaching battle. y In the event they are foroed to retreat. they will take up strong- ly-fortified positions along the

Yellow River. The Chinese forcesl wgepggglrged the Province of 0m

have been pushed backward 100i miles and now are in Shantungl Province between the Hopeh bor-l der and the Yellow River. I

Chinese hopes were partially re- vived when General I-Ian Fu-Chu, Shantung warlord, whose stand in the Sine-Japanese conflict had b41611 dvllbtful. cast in his lot with General Chismg Kai-Shek dispatched a brigade of picked troops to the aid of the retreating North China troops, Chinese sour- - cos declared. i

SHANGHAI, Oct. '7—lThursdayJ —Chinese forces took tile offen- sive in =1 sharp - mler-ivfack t0- day, the 10th day in the present battle for Shanghai.

The Chinese surged fl"om their entrcnchmcnts all along the front from the ruined Chapel native quarter on the edge of the Inter- national Settlement north almost the whole 25 miles to Lotien.

The fighting however, remained at a stalemate.

Japan again struck from the air in a. seriesof raids on cities in central and south China. None of the air attacks achieved major damage Chinese officials declared.

CllillISC sources at Canton, southern port. said 66 Japanese plcncs participated in raids over a" large area. of Kwantung Prov- incc. on ihc sputh China coast.

Dr. Alfred Sze. former Chinese Ambassador to Washington, plead- ed for an American boycott of Japan to bolster China's defences.

"If you boycott Japan," Dr. Sze said in a broadcast to the United States, “you will have contributed to the greatest single step of pro- gress in history.
