Japs Are Still Hopeful

1t has developed that the Japanese
government has not suggested the
invocation Of The Hague tribunal as a
means of settling the issue, hence the
conclusion is drawn here that the jap
anese do not by any means regard the
resources as having been exhausted
to the point where arbitration is the
only resort.
Press dispatches from Toxic convey
ing the opinion of high Japanese ofIic,
ials that a permanent and satisfactory
settlement of the difficulty is confident

coined in official circles here today.
This was taken to mean that the ne
gotiations are at least assured OF
peaceful and orderly progression, and
that there is little likelihood of an ev-
olution of feeling that might result in
a rupture of diplomatic relations.
Administration officials believe that
the Japanese government is not quite
well. aware of two important facts,
First, that the United States govern

Vital Statistics Passed.

The m~uCh-needed vital statistics law
is now a reality. The House and SEN
ate both passed the bill by large ma
jorities. True, several serious amend

but even at that we have probably tho
best vital statistics law Of any State
in the Union.

very largely to the matter Of getting
all the officers and machinery to run

should have as nearly perfect regis

A few other minor amendments
were adopted. but if these alterations
are found to be too serious a handicap
on the bill, some future Legislature
will doubtless remove them. In the
meantime, North Carolina has u
to be thankful for in this bill, and We
will DOR assume our place as a regis

BRIEF IN GOLDBERG CASE
GOES TO SUPREME COURT
Suit Is One Against Navy Depart
ment in Refusing to Sell
Cruiser Boston.

The Department of Justice has sub
mftted to the Supreme Court of the
United States its brief in the case: on
appeal. of A. Goldberg against the Sec
rotary of the Navy. Goldberg appeals
from the Court of Appeals of the District
of Columbia, which affirmed the judy
ment of Justice Ande son of the SUI
preme Court of the District of Column
bia, dismissing an application for writ
of mandamus to compel the then Secre-
tary of the Navy, George Won l.. Meyer.
to deliver the cruiser Boston.
1t Is claimed by Mr.. Goldberg that he
was the highest bidder for the vessel,
which had been after survey and ap-
praisennent, offered 70, sale by the Navy
Department. and that he had deposited
with the Secretary a certified check for
$4,000, the amount of the bid. which
the Secretary refused to accept, and re-
turned to him over his protest His
action is claimed to be unauthorized and
to violate the contract to sell.
The Secretary justified his action by
claiming he had the discretion to ac-
cept or eject the bid and had with
drawn the vessel from sale in order to
lend it for use by the naval militia of
the state of Oregon. The question in
volved is whether this action on the
part of the Secretary was within the
discretion conferred upon him by the
statute.
