Honduras - Nicaragua Mediation P a r i e y J eopardized.

(By The Associated Press)

TEGUCIGALPA. Honduras. Nov. 1—Rellab1e reports tonight stated that Nicaraguan troops had been sent to thc Honduras-Nicaragua frontier virtually on the eve oi a mediation conference to settle the "postage-stamp" border dispute.

These reports said that 5.000 fully equipped troops already had been dispatched to the border.

Honduran sources said such a troop movement was in violation of the Sept. '7 agreement in which the two nations promised not to send military forces to their mut- ual boundary.

The border dispute came into prominence when Nicaragua issued an airmail stamp which Hondur- ans said showed a section of Hon-

duras tvithlu Nicoraguas fron- tier. . When feeling between the two

Central American nations mount- ed thc United States. Venezuela and Costa Rica offered their "good offices" to mediate the dispute, an ofier that ivas accepted.

The first mediation meeting is scheduled in San Joe, Costa Rica. Wednesday.

Tho spokesman asserted the Japanese were repulsed in Shang- hai's western suburbs by Chinese armed only with trench mortars machine guns and rifles in the face of Japanese artillery.

SHANGHAI, Nov. 2—-(Tucsday)— The Japanese drive to force a pass- ase of Soochow Creek and seize the western suburbs of Shanghai con- tinued with intensified fury today.

Chinese fought back desperately against the advance of Japanese units which late Monday gained a foot ng on Soochow Creek's south. ern bank at heavy cost to both sides.

The fighting along the Interna- tional Settlements northern and western fringes. which already had caused friction with the British de- fence force, lcd to a dispute wlzh United States marines.

The junk, with several others. eveutualy became part oi an im- provised bricigo by which the Jap- anese forced a passage of the crock.

EDMONTON, Nov. 1--The Pro. vincial Guaranteed Securities In- . tciat Act, reducing" interest pgy- "Wm-l 50 per cent on government Eunrllllltled blinds. vias ruled utra vlres the Alberta Leg slature today by Mt". Justice A. F. Ewing who also declared invalid the piovincially Guaranteed Securities Proceedings Act insofar as it affected the case before the court.

_Hls Lordship gave judgment for $0.430 to the plaintiffs, the Inde- pendent Order of Foresters of To- ronto. against the defendants, the Lethbridge Northern Irrigation Dis- Wcl- H11 also gave the Foresters authority for a writ of execution to enforce payment of a previous sim- ilar Judgment for the same amount‘ I allowedby Mr. Justice W. C. Ives.

Th0 Judgment was on an action heard Oct. 13 last in the Alberta. Supreme Court and tested validity of two or three acts passed in April. 1937, to substitute for the or- iginal interest-cutting legislation of l August, 1936, which had been de- l caret‘. ultra vres by Mr. Justice

Ives _

Through the judgment declaring the ncts ultra vircs, Mr, Justice Ew- ing removed the authority of o1:- ‘gauizatious. whose bonds are guar- anteed by the government, to pay inc reduced rates and opened the tvuy for legal action by bondholders if thc full rates are not ' paid. Whether an appeal will be made has not vet been indicated.

Stating the two acts were parirot the original act. which Mr. Justice Ives declared-ultra vires in Febru- ary, 1937, Mr. Justice Ew ng said the Provincially Guaranteed m- curiilcs Proceedings Act if upheld would have nullified the division "of powers between the Dominion and provinces as ix ovided in the Brit- ish North America Act by prevent- ing the courts from mlng on con- stitutionality of legislation.

Dealing with the provincial guar- anteed securities interest act, Mr. Justice Ewing found it similar to ports of the original act ruled ultra vircs by Mr. Just ce Ives and he ruictl the new act ultra vires for the same reason-interference with Federal right. of dealing with inter- est rates by contract.
