Election Within 5 Months
Powerful Opposition Party

WASHINGTON, Feb. % (By The AS
sociated Press).-The Japanese Diet
has been dissolved by imperial decree
as result of profound difference Of
OPINION between the Cabinet and the
majority parties in the Diet regarding
the extension Of the franchise.
Ihls action was taken by the EN-
Peror last Thursday at the request of
Premier Hara, according to cable ad-
wees received here day from Toxic.
II followed the recent violent scenes in
farliament over TIE suffrage question.
Under the constitution a. new cleo
ton must be held within five months
The Parliament just dissolved was
about two and a half years old. There
were lew sessions during the war, and
"nen the present Parliament convened
on Christmas Day it was practically
for its first business session. One Of
the first measures brought forward re-
lated to tho extension Of the franchise.
About two years ago the government
mad consented to tha passage of legis-
latlon which extended the right of the
people OF Japan to vote to those whose
direct tax exceeded three ven. This.

Defends Course in War
Calls for Adoption of

Secretary Of War Baker made an
argent plea yesterday for adoption of
the league of nations covenant without
reservations. He defended every phase
of the Administrations prosecution of
the war and poined to the fact that no
Investigating committee had succeeded
in unearthing evidence of real graft
His remarks. which were made in the
course of an address at the MONTHLY
luncheon of the Brooklyn Chamber of
Commerce, included significant state
ment concerning his tenure of Office.
1t was taken by his hearers to silence
the numerous reports that he was plan
ming to resign from the Cabinet be-
cause of Che Lansing resignation.
"On March a, 1921, I expect to he
inaugurated--into private life" he
said, permitting sufficient pause to
give his hearers opportunity to Won
der what was to follow.

this war would say to US now, if asked
what we ought to do to make certain

they fought?' said the Secretary. ~

Mush Causes "Red'' Revolt

Radicals detained at Ellis Island

vocatlng the overthrow Of the Ameri
can government by force, and *here-
fore facing deportation proceedings, do
not like the kind of cereal Uncle Sam
serves them for breakfast. They unani-
mously refused to eat it yesterday
morning when it was served them g.
part of their morning meal. They
called it "mush," and threatened to 20
on hunger strike unless the bill of
fare is materially altered.
Both Byron H. Uhl, Acting Commits
sioner Of # Immigration, and superin-
tendept Baker denied the "Reds" were
contemplating a hunger strike to force
either their release or immediate de-
portation. Mr.: Uhl added that SO far
AS the fare offered to the radicals is
concerned, they are getting food of un-
doubted fresh and nourishing quality.
and they will either eat it or leave It
alone, without their action in any way
affecting the attitude and conduct Of
the authorities.

No effort will be made by the For

any way. Seator Lodge, chairman Of
the committee, said to -day it is planne /
to have the committee /report Mr
Ooioy's nomination to the Senate
without recommendation" By such a
move the Republican leaders hope to
avold the appearance of launching n
nght against confirming the appoint

free to act as it wishes.

and Civil War days weren't 50 far

tor 10000 volunteers the Secretary
of War sent word to him that he
was so busy with other affairs of his
department. he never would be able to
spare the time to drill any such num-
ber of men. So the Secretary of tho
treasury was summoned to the White
House and asked if he would see to

Mr.. Baker said that. when the repu-
tations of civilians who had faithfully
served the public durin gthe war were
assaulted in these Congressional re-
ports, he hoped that the sense Of
gratitude Of the publ lie would be such
as to insure proper and effective
