Japanese Aims

Japanese Foreigner Minister Uchida
is quoted in an interview given to the
press at Toxic that Japan is pleased to
find in the proposed disarmament con-
ference to be held in Washington an
opportunity Of frank expression of
The aims OF the Japanese government
in the Pacific and Far East.
Assurance is given that Japan is
much interested in an understanding
which will promote world peace, but
Minister Uchida urges the Importance
of fixing the subjects which will be
discussed at the conference, although
| it is admitted that "a proper under
standing is beginning to be secured"
through diplomatic representations of
the washington government.
It will be recalled that Japan waF
first disposed to have discussion of the
Pacific and Far East problems omit
ted from the disarmament conference,
but the insistence of President Hard
ing that consideration be given to
these issues appears to have brought
the Japanese government to a deci-
sion to join in seeking to reach an
understanding.
unlike the recent peace conference"
Minister Uohida said in concluding his
statement, ''the Washington confer
ence is of such vital Importance 10
Japan that the nation should pay the
greatest attention to it's development
and assume a prudent attitude"
One thing seems reasonably certain
as far as the United States is con-
cerned-Japan will not be asked to
make any surrender in the Pacific and
Far East Of anything that can be NOR
ally claimed by that nation. In view
of the professions which Japan has
made regarding her interest in world
peace, that government dare not ask
for anything that does not advance
peace.
Japan, of course, realizes the impor-
lance of giving frank expression of her
attitude toward China, especially as to
what she expects in the way of COM
pensation from China for wrestling
from Germany the concessions secured
from China. A number of other ma
tions are interested in knowing if ia
pan intends to keep the pledge to
deal fairly with China The forthcom-
ing conference should develop the at
titude of Japan.-St. Petersburg Times.

An Appeal for the Jobless Man.

An Appeal for the JobIess Man.
Editor Journal:
The time has come in Pensacola
when something has got to be done
for the jobless man. Now, today,
there are from 1000 to 1900 idle men
in this city, and quite a number of
these and their families are not having
enough to eat. This is. condition
and not theory My business brings
me in direct contact with this class OF
people, and know I am speaking the
truth when I say there are hundre is
of people here who are now and soon
will be suffering for the necessa- les
of life. Winter is approaching and
this condition muse be faced. The
way to avoid calamity is to prepare
for it in advance. The city has so:d
bonds to build docks and belt lsne
them. Now Of all times is the time t.
open UP way ior at least a part Of
these people who are idle, and who
will soon be a menace and a charge
upon the city u get their bread.
Now is the time for our county COM
missioners to get busy and put these
idle people to work. The time is here
when politics and selfish gain should
be laid aside by everybody, and all go
to work to help the jobless man.
In conclusion 1 will say if there is
anyone who may read this that does
not believe that conditions are as
state If they viii call on me I will go
with them and prove all and more
than l have said. My phone number is
445.

Send Them Back

In one of our large cities feud has
broken out in the foreign quarter and
is raging with relentless fury Already
eight murders, probably ten others,
and the police have been unable to OBJ
tain even single clue to the perpetra-
tors. Until few days since. The for
eigners simply shrug their shoulders
and refuse to answer.
This leads a police captain to rec
ommend the enactment of a law which
would enable the deportation of any
foreigner who SO refuses to divulge
such information as may be in his
possession.
II would be a good law and it would
be even better If it were rightly en-
forced.
Our loose immigration laws allow
these assassins to come into our
midst and disgrace the better class Of
residents from their country.
The man who withholds knowledge
of a murder is guilty himself in the
eyes Of the law. He should be punish
ed. and then deported.
We have not invited such people to
come to US. and we win not weep If
they leave US.
If they win not leave of their own
accord. they should be helped along
by the governmental Washing
ton Verdict.

Hard Times

Across the editorial desk from some
unremembered source came a little bit
of French allegory.
A portrait painter sat in his favor
tie cafe slipping his wine. His first
small bottle finished, he was about to
order more, when his eye fell on a
headline in the Figaro, Hard Times
Are Coming" so instead of ordering
his usual second bottle he called for
his check.
rs there anything wrong with the
wine?'' asked the landlord.
'tThe wine is good, but did not or
der a second bottle because hard times
are coming and we must economic, /"
explained the artist.
Hard times" said the landlord.
Then my wife must not order the silk
dress we planned but must take one Of
Cotton"
Hard times" repeated the Dress
maker when the order was cancelled.
"This is no time to expand. must not
make the improvements I had planned
in the place"
Hard times, chr" said the builder
when the dressmalxer cancelled the
building plans. Then l cannot have
my wife's portrait painted"
So he wrote to the artist and cam
celled his order.
After receiving the letter the artist
went again to his favorite cafe and or
dered a small bottle of zine to soothe
him. On a nearby chair was the paper
in which he had read of hard times
two days before. He picked it up to
read more closely and found it was two
years old!--Gainesville News.

A COMMENTED PEOPLE

country without an army, with
out a navy, without a national debt
and without an income tax; where the
romance of the South Seas still lives,
and where every male reaching the
age Of is years must own eight and
one-quarter acres OF land to sustain
his own family-a statute obligation
which is fulfilled by a magnanimous
government granting him the land
gratis.
Such is Tonga, the last remaining
native kingdom in the Pacific ocean.
according othe description furnished
by TUT Vakanao, premier of the island
Premier Vakanoa said that the peo-
pie OF Tonga are very contented. They
have their own monarch, ministry,
flag, and parliament of seven members
elected by the people and an equal
number chosen by the mobiles or hered-
itary chiefs.
At the end Of last March Premier
Vanakoa said the kingdom had a sur
plus of more than 100. 900 pounds rev.
enue over its expenditures after pay
ing for all public works.
Males reaching the age OF 1s are
granted their land and must plant
enough cocoanuts, yams and other food
to sustain their families and pay their
educational tax, which practically
completes their civic duties, he said.
The premier has an attractive per-
sonality. His English Is excellent, al
though he confesses to slight tirnia-
ity because al his education was OBJ
tanned in Tongan school. He has
been premier since 1912.

Means a Great Step Forward

One OF the most important items Of
news appearing in the daily presk in
many years is that which tells of the
efforts of the cattle raisers Of Florida
to secure the passage by the state feg
islature of a statewide cattle lick
eradication measure. Heretofore the
cattle men have, as a rule, BEEN OPP
posed to cattle dipping, but changed
conditions have brought a new view
point and they are quick to realize
and admit that the interests of Florida
can best be served by banishing for
ever the pest which has caused the ban
to be placed on Florida cattle every
where throughout the United States
The minute the federal authorities said
Florida was barred, that minute spell
ed the doom of the cattle industry I'M

due the cattle men for their acton

years the cattle men of Florida viii
