CHINESE PLAN CHANGES
CHUNGKING, China, Dec. 28 (UP)
The Chinese government partly
with the aid of United States and
British loans i3 undertaking an al
most unprecedented mass transfer of
industrial resources into the unex
ploited provinces of western China.
Millions of dollars worth of machin
ery and equipment, hundreds of
thousands of laborers, many hun
dreds of skilled technicians and engi
neers are moving westward as Jap
anese bayonets cut off China's great
coastal commercial areas.
The movement may be one of the
most significant developments of the
far eastern struggle which recently
resulted in mounting Japanese re
sentment against the United States
and Great Britain because of finan
cial aid to China for purchase of
agriculture and industrial machinery.

capital, Barcelona and it was design
ed to cut Catalonia into halves.
The northern wing of the insur
gent army of 300,000 swept across
the Montsech mountain range south
east of'Tremp. The southern wing
was reported only 30 miles from Tar
ragona on the Mediterranean coast
54 miles south of Barcelona. In
surgent communiques said hundreds
of loyalist soldiers were being cap
tured daily along with huge stores of
usable equipment and munitions.

Co Attorneys
for Changes in
Parole System
Would Base Action on Probability
of Reformation of the Persons
Making Such Requests
LINCOLN, Dec. 28 (UP) Justice
Fred W. Messmorc of the Supreme
Court predicted in an address last
night that semi-Judicial administra

control at least of the integrated Ne
braska State Bar association.
He spoke at a dinner which con
fluded the annual convention of the
Nebraska County Attorneys' associa
tion. Judge Messmore said control of
administrative agencies would regu
larize procedure in boards similar to
the National Labor Relations board.
He indicated it might be achieved
hy a licensing system and by requir
ing that at least one member be a
practicing attorney.
Maynard M. Groshans of York
va3 presented as the new president
of the county attorneys, succeeding
County Attorney Wilfoer S. Aten, of
Holdrege. Norris Chadderdon of

ciation. Other officers of the two groups

Plattsmouth, vice president; Robin
Reid, Lincoln, re-elected secretary.
The county attorneys urged re
form of Nebraska's parole system,
including a system of classification of
inmates on the basis of segregation
according to the probability of re
formation, with trained treatment of
each inmate.

Somaliland ports by Italians.
