AOKI SCOUTS
RECALL STORY,
TALKS FREELY
Declares There Is No
Situation Between
United States and
Japan.

The japanese ambassador, VIscount
Aoid. today. for the first time. talked
freely regarding the relations between
the United States and Japan, Incl
dentally expressing disbelief in the
rumOrs that he is 70 be recalled.
There is no situation he said,
between Japan and the United States.
The best Of relations exist. and there
IS nothing OF a diplomatic character un-
Ger consideration II IS very distressing
that There should be agitation over
trihes which are purely OF local inn
port, II import at all
rs the progressive party strong
enough 70 secure your recalg' he was
asked.
Does Not Credit Recall Story.
II do not credit the story Of my re-
call" he replied. THE progressives do
not have majority in the national
legislature. I do not know what their
strength really is. but ! think not very
great. It is bad that a few excitabIe
persons should cause the impression 70
80 out that Japan is atiame with indig-
nation over alleged. perhaps ina ginary,
results OF course, the government
could stop such talk. but TO do so might
seem to give more Importance 10 il thar
would be justified. Some of our people
are very. sensitive, and also impulsive.
'It is a mistake. however, 20 imagine
that Japan is anxious for trouble. We
want no trouble. We have a population
of about so 100. 600. and your country has,
perhaps. more than SGOO0 COO. with much
more wealth than Japan. The con-
quests we seek are those of peace. We
have entered on a constructive era. AS
far as the status of my countrymen in
the United States is concerned, Il is
possible that they are not well under
stood, but I see no reason why, when
they become used TO the ways Of the
country, they could not assimilate with
the people here
Intermarriage and Naturalization.
Would you advocate their intermar-
riage and naturalization"
Yes" replied Viscount Aoki. Il think
it proper. if they individually see ft.. to
marry here. I would leave 1t 20 them.
AS for naturalization. japanese become
subjects OF other countries, and Eu-
ropeans in many eases have become sub
iects of Japan. I have seen it stated
IN the press that they would not be
likely TO renounce their allegiance to
their own country, but that idea is ex-
aggerated. The Japanese are not so
patriotic. II they go to another cOun-
ministration OF governmental affairs
there-they are Japanese no longer
Their interests are all with the COM
munity where they have their homes -
The ambassador declared that 1t was
fallacy TO suppose that an country
could ever dominate the Pacific. 1T is
too big" he declared. land there are
too many countries bordering on ii. The
interests of all must be conserved. And
ii is idle to suppose that Japan can ever
hope to control such a vast commerce
as even the Asiatic countries will
furnish"

PICNIC PLANNED FOR
CHILDREN OF THE POOR

There is nothing that the average
boy or girl enjoys more than a pic
mic in the woods, and no matter how
warm the day is it is an easy matter
TO collect crowd of young folks for
an outing in the woods The Rev
and Mrs. r. W. Childs, approaching
the keen pleasure of such outings
for the youngsters who have little
opportunity for enjoying them have
made 1t an annual practice to take
out three or four hundred children
every year, and with the assistance
'of the people who take an interest in
their charity work have always
made great success of this feature.
This year will be no exception 10 tho
general rule, and the picnic will be
given August 6. AS the weather is
warm. and soliciting is a hard task,
Mrs. Chiles, who attends TO this
feature of the work. has requested
The Sun 10 ask all those who viii!
dorate something for the picnic to
telephone her or Mr. Chiles at the

Mayors Revocation of License

Writ of Prohibition for Police
Judge.
Is RESTRAINED TWENTY DAYS

Attorneys for Hugh Boyle saloon
keeper at Fourth ard Kentucky ave
nue, whose injunction to restrain
Mayor Yeiser from revoking his Ii
cense. was dissolved this morning by
Judge Reed, in the circuit court. are
making a desperate effort TO save his
license for him, and prevent his pros
Iecution for retailing liquor without a
license. warrants, charging him with
which, have been sworn out by Chief
OF Police Collins.
a writ of prohibition directed to
Judge Cross, to prevent his hearing
the case of selling without a license
and an appeal to the court of ap-
peals from Judge Reeds decision in
the Injunction proceedings. are both
being sued out today, and mean
while Judge Reed is continuing the
Temporary restraining order 20 days
to allow counsel time to get the APP
peal before one of the justices of the
court of appeals at chambers.
Accepting as true Mayor Yeiser's
affidavit and answer that he revoked
|Boyle's license 60 seconds after his
conviction in police court of Sunday
selling, Judge Reed said he could
not well restrain the mayor from do
ing something he had already done,
since the appeal was not perfected
and the temporary restraining order
issued until an hour after the revo-
Ication. Judge Reed held valid the
ordinance. authorizing the mayor to
revoke saloon licenses and denied the
petitioners contention that service
.of notice Of intention to apply for an
Injunction was sufficient to restrain
the mayor under the circumstances
All these points will be brought be-
fore the court of appeals at the hear
ing. Attorneys Hal Corbett and Eu-
yene Graves, for Boyle, say they are
certain to establish the unconstitu-
tonality of the ordinance, authoriz-
ing the mayor to revoke saloon IL
censes.
AS soon as Judge Reed announced
his decision they prayed an appeal
and asked for continuance of the
restraining order for 90 days which
was granted. The writ of prohibition
will be sued out IN the circuit court.
