JAPANESE in FAVOR
OF RESTRICTION
OF ARMAMENTS
(By The Associated Negro Press)

(By The Associated Negro Press)
Toxic, Japan, July 14.-Okio Ozaki,
former minister of justice, on the
conclusion of 10000 mile campaign
of the empire in behalf of limitation
of ornaments, campaign unparal-
leled in Japan's political history, de-
clared his conviction today that if the
United States government proposed
conference on limitation of arma-
ments it would meet with an eager
response throughout Japan
M. Ozaki, whose achievements have
made him the foremost Japanese lib
eral added:
Il should like to convey this mes
sage to the people of the United
States. If the American government
proposed an international conference
to discuss restriction of armaments
it will surely be the beginning of
solution of all the diplomatic ques-
tions between Japan and the United

the clearly unnecessary wasteful nav
al competition, how can we expect
to solve other irritable and more COM
plicated questions between our coun-
tries? The latter easily will adjust
thmeselves when the former has
been settled"
M. Ozaki explained he spoke in al
most all the important cities and
towns from Kyushu, in the farthest
south, to Hokkaido, in the farthest
north, addressing 100000 persons at
100 meetings, at which postcards were
distributed so his hearers could vote
freely on disarmament. The final re-
suit on the returns from these cards,
Ozaki asserted, showed that "a per
cent favored limitation.

Sunday night, at about $3.50 o'clock,

his past history Acting Coroner

er the body and a verdict was rem
dered by the jury to the effect that

MINISTER SPEAKS
OF JACK DEMPSEY
in SUNDAY SERMON
(By The Associated Negro Press)

(By The Associated Negro Press)
Richmond, Va, July 14.-Discussing
the Dempsey Carpenter bout in his
morning sermon, last Sunday, Rev.
Riddick Laughton, pastor of the fash
ional Laurel Street Methodist church,
and himself a veteran of the world
war, suggested that Dempsey might
atone in a measure at least for his
alleged slackerism of war days by
turning over the 100000 which he
made in 12 minutes to a fund for the
relief work of disabled soldiers. Mr..
Laughton denounced both fighters as
human brutes referring to Dempsey
as a half yellow American" and to
Carpenter as a "ruffian," whose re-
deeming feature-was his war record.
He deplored the attendance of 5000
women at the bout, whose presence
"countenanced the degrading spec
tacle,' and indicated the decay of
our national ideals.

EXPERT PREDICTS
SMALLEST CROP OF
COTTON THIS YEAR
(Ry The Asaoeiated Negro preasl


New York, July 14-Cotton pro
duction this year promises to be the
smallest crop of the last quarter of a
century, a recent forecast by the de.
partment of agriculture placing it at
S,4S3,OOO bales, or nearly five million
bales smaller than last years crop
and nearly eight million bales below
the record of 1914. This years acre.
age is 2S.4 per cent smaller than last
years
The acreage this year is the small
est since 1900 and never before, the
department of agriculture said, has
there been so great a change from
one year to another in acreage as
there has been from last year to this
year. The condition of the growing
has not in 20 years been so low on
June 25 as it was this year All
sections of the cotton belt have been
affected. II is due, according to
government experts. to an adversely
late, wet spring and to the presence
OF the boil weevil in large numbers.
Owing to the unfavorable conditions
of April and May and to other dis
couraging factors. shortage of fer
tilizer and unsatisfactory price, aban-
donment of planted cotton acreage
has been greater than usual east of
the Mississippi river, ranging from S
per cent in North Carolina and Miss.
issippi to as high as 10 per cent in
Georgia. West of the Mississippi
abandonment has been slight. The
condition of the crop on May 25 this
year was Sc per cent OF a normal.
The production last year was 1885,
754, equivalent 5OO.pound bales; the
revised area in cultivation a year
ago, was 37O43, 900 acres and the con-
dition of the crop June 25 last year
was 7077 per cent of a normal In
1919 the crop was 11,420,763 equival-
ent 500-pound bales.

URGES DEMOCRATS
To GET together
(By The Associated Negro Preas)

(By The Associated Negro Press)
New York, Julp 14.-United States
Senator David !. Walsh of Mass, told
the Tammany society in its Fourteen.
tn street headquarters on the Fourth
of July the fortunes of the Democratic
party have seldom been at such a
low ebb as they appear today. He
said it was time for plain speaking
and demanded that democrats face
facts Senator Walsh spoke at the
Tammany independence Day celebra-
ton.
The vote in November was the ans
wer to an acceptance of a campaign
in which foreign issues rose above
domestic issues. The result, declared
the Massachusetts, senator, was stag
gering defeat.
Now We stand rejected at home
and abroad" he added, "in the most
lamentable of all predicaments, that
of the political party inherently pos
sessed with high principles, but hear
ing the penalty for having forsaken
them"
Refusing to accept the explanation
of many democrats, that defeat was
the result of a narrow, selfish, un-
American decision, Senator Walsh in
sisted that if democrats adopted a
new program, the position of the party
was not altogether hopeless.
