Public Warned Against Gen.

Competition With the United
States Is Denied.

Toxic, March 25.--With the con-

tivess the house of peers today adopted
the budget. To the document was at
tached a resolution warning the nation
OF the general deterioration in public
discipline thru the growing difficulty
of living. due to INSTRUMENTATION by
the government.
! Assertions that the japanese naval
program was being followed for the
purpose of competing with the United
States navy. were denounced as pre-
posterous and absurd by Vice Ad-
tniral kato, Japanese minister of ma
fine, in an interview here today. He
declared Japan was not trying to COM
pete with the American navy and that
the Japanese naval program had been
formulated so that the island empire
gould be defended against any emer-
gency arising in the Far East alone.
Would Accept Naval Holiday.
: During the course of the interview
the minister emphasized the fact that
Japan's project to have a fleet of
eight battleships and eigh. battle
cruisers not over eight years old, was
not necessarily irreducible. He indi-
gated that if all the naval powers
would agree to a naval holiday, "he
you'd be willing to enter such an en-
gagement, and would not insist upon
the completion of the navy program
projected by the government" 81 re-

Constantinople, March 25.-Turkish
official reports declared that the Turk

Wednesday. 1t is said that 1900

the Greek advance. reports state, but.
being reinforced, they launched a
counter offensive. 1t was claimed in
Greek circles here yesterday that the
town of Eski-Shehr. one of the objec-
tives of the offensive, had been taken
but this rumor has not been con-
|firmed.
Turkish nationalist advices declare
the Greeks in carrying out their Of
fensiye are following the same plan
adopted eight months ago but that it
is possible Greek forces may be landed

divisions on the Smyrna front and
three before Brusa. The Greeks have
the same number of divisions but are
stronger numerically.
Reports received here from Turk
ish sources declared that 500 Greeks
had been taken prisoners and it was
said the Turks were offering obstinate
resistance. 1t was claimed in Greek
quarters here that the troops had

have planned to retreat into the in

DEATH RATE BIC
Thousand Die Every Day in
! Chinese Famine Area.
Plague Now Adds to Horrors,
Says Relief Committee.

Picking, March 24.-Famine, which
holds the provinces of Honan, Shensi
and Chikli in its sinister grasp, is
reaping a dreadful harvest, according
to reports received at the headquar-
zation in this city.
In twenty-five counties OF Honan,
the average daily death rate on March
10 was one thousand, while deaths
from famine in the six northern eoun-
ties of the province averaged 500 daily.
Sixteen counties in Shensi covered
by relief committees have suffered
terribly, 1t is shown by reports. the
most serious phase of the scourge be-
ing found, apparently near Fuping, a
small town northeast of Sian-Fu. CAPT.
tai of the province
In the sixteen counties there have
been $4,000 deaths from starvation
since the beginning of the famine, 90
900 of them occurring in Fupine
county. The county ranking next to
Fuping in the number OF deaths is
Ankang with 5000. The others range
from 5000 downward. Pneumonia
plague recently made it appearance In
twenty villages along the border be.
tween the provinces of Chilli ano
Shantung, 108 persons dying from the
malady. The epidemic was brought
under control by stopping all traffic
thru infested areas and the isolation
of all persons who had been stricken
There was a small outbreak in Shan
tung, but the same strict measures
were instituted in four villages where
the disease appeared and the plague
averted. In some counties in Honar
there was a dangerous condition aris-
! ing from an outbreak of typhus.
| Funds amounting to 3.250,ooC
gold taels (normally $4,500.00O in
GLIDING one million taels from the
American Red Cross have been ap-
portioned to all famine districts by
the advisory committee of all working
organization in the stricken regions
This committee is informed tht
American committee for the China

mont, is doing its utmost to provide
food for six million persons and as
sertion is made that there are three

gandists or mischief makers trying 60
attribute our naval program to a de-
sire to compete with the United States
navy" the minister said.
Nothing could be more preposter-
Gus and absurd than this contention.
Needless to say the japanese navy de-
sires the most cordial relations with
the United States navy
What is your attitude regarding a
conference for the discussion of the
restriction of armaments?" he was
asked.
Docs Not Want the Lead
"The japanese government" he re-
piled, Joined the League of Nations
and in doing so supported the principle
of the reduction of ornaments.
Whenever there is an International
conference on armament reduction. l
will be. only too glad to cooperate
honestly with other governments to
give effect to this principle.
"Altho there is a clamor for the re-
striction of ornaments turnout the
world, yet, taking into consideration
the real international situation and
the present status of the naval powers,
1 do not believe our relatively inferior
navy should lead the way in reducing
nor that we should curtail our estab-
lished plan. If a dependable interna-
tional agreement comes into being.
whereby all naval powers should agree
to restrict their naval forces, however,
I would be glad to join to a reasonable
extent, if a suitable rormula could be
agreed upon. Therefore, I do not in
sist on the completion of our 'so-called'
eight-eight program"
