Residents of the Internationa
Settlement viewed the verbal and
written exchanges between the Jap-
anese and Chinese officials with
alarm. Those who had lived for
,many years in the Far East were
accustomed to revolt and occasional
disturbances within China, but
there was a different flavor to their
cocktails when Japan was handling
the shaker.
.*.
It was a disturbing fact that
Hongkew, which is the Japanese
community of Greater Shanghai, is
in the International Settlement. The
Japanese consul-general had issued
instructions for all his nationals to
evacuate Chapei. and all resideats
of Hongkew who lived lear the
Chapel border lines were urged to
remove to safer regions. Marines of
the Island empire were preparing to
use this part of the Settlement as
a base of attack, with the danger-
ous prospect that British and Amer-
ican communities would be in the
line of fire of the defending 19th
Route Army. It was variously esti-
mated that General Tsai Ting-kai's
Cantonese soldiers numbered from
10,000 to 15,000, and that they were
well equipped.
..*
On January 27, 1932, Consul-
General K. Murai delivered an ul-
timatum tg Mayor Wu, ordering
that a satisfactory reply to his five
demands be received by 6 j. m. on
the following day.
This was as good as a declara-
tion of war so far as Settlement
preparedness was concerned.
...
The Shanghai Municipal Council,
the governing body of the Interna-
tional Settlement, called a special
noon meeting four hours in advance
of the hour the Japanese ultimatum
was to expire, and declared that a
state of emergency should exist be-
ginning at 4 0'clock that afternoon.
A curfew was to be in effect t,ch
night at 9 'o'clock; and no one, 'ex-
cept those holding passes issued by
the Council, was to be allowed on
the streets after that hour.
Brigadier G. Fleming, command-
er of British forces in Shanghai,
was named commander-in-chief of
the Settlement military units. Al-
most simultaneously with the decl-
sion reached by the Settlement au-
thorities, the French Council also
declared a state of emergency in
the French Concession. All en-
trances to the Concession were bar-
ricaded and police and troops were
standing by.
Shanghai Volunteer Corps. per-
haps the most interesting military
organization in the world, were
mobilized immediately following the
proclamation of the emergency de-
cree. The S. V. C. was composed of
"Pacific Grove has always had
great charm for me and the people
here are very dear to my heart."
Her tribute to the town, the words
were voiced by Mrs. Lucie A. Chase
to a Tribune representative junt be-
fore her 92nd birthday last Decent-
ber.

Tentative plans for holding the
second annual "open house" cele-
bration the final week of June were
discussed at the regular meeting pf
the Pacific Grove chamber of coin-
merce directors last Friday noon.
Completion of the plunge at the
beach and improvement of the slope
surrounding it will afford the in-
spiration for the celebration. It is
hoped by chamber of commerce di-
rectors to illuminate the beach pro-
perty during "open house" with
Japanese lanterns and to secure a
fleet of small craft which would be
similarly lighted and give the illu-
don of a seaside festival.
Though'no definite steps were
taken at the February meeting and
no committees named to prepare
for the event general approval of
continuing the "open house" cele-
brations here was expressed by the
directors. They also announced that
they would welcome constructive
suggestions as to ways of making
it an attractive and successful af-
fair.
C. A. Borchers presented two de-
signs for a neon sign which the 10-
cal chamber of commerce intends
to erect at the intersection of the
Pacific Grove and Carmel-Monterey
roads, directing traffic to Pacific
Grove. Other plans and costs are
to be, ce»idered - by - him 41,1 this
committee and conferences with the
Del Monte Properties company with
the intention of choosing a sign
which will harmonize with the im-
prdvements contemplated by them
at the entrance to the Seventeen-
Mile Drive at that point.
The sum of $40 which was rea-
lized at the President's "birthday
ball" held in Pacific Grove is to be
administered by a committee ap-
poinfed by President Sheldon Gil-
mer of the chamber of commerce.
With Ed Simpson as its chairman.
the other members will be Dr. L.
E. Clay and Chandler Stewart and
the sum will be held in reserve for
aid of crippled children in this
community.
