In the face of growing war scares, President Roosevelt to-day announced that he was cutting his vacation short and will return to Washing-ion on Tuesday instead of Wednesday morning.
The President conferred this morning with Mr. Norman H. Davis and Mr, James A. Moffett, Chairman of the Board of the California-Texas Oil Company which is Standard Oil's foreign operations branch.
In summarizing his view of the Far Eastern situation Mr. Moffett said, "How long China can resist Japan is.a question of whether she can obtain the aid of other nations in replacing ammunition and warplanes. United States, Great Britain and France are the only nations able'to supply the necessary war implements."
Mr. Moffett predicted that "Japan probably ultimately will control Northern China as far south as Shanghai.'—United Press.
