Tokyo:  Shinya Uchida, former Vice Minister of the Navy and a bitter opponent of the London Naval Treaty, sends a letter to the War Minister, Gen. Issei Ugaki, trying to get him involved in opposing it too. 


Madrid:  More violence by university students, this time leaving two dead, which prompts Prime Minister Damaso Berenguer to issue a statement saying his government will tolerate no more demonstrations.  Both of the dead are workers, killed by gunfire.  40 are injured, many by thrown rocks.
