Born near Pendleton in 1912. Amos
Pond, one of the best known Indians
of the reservation, has some early i'm
pressions that are of interest. How
many miles. Willamette was one OF
the first phrases he ever heard white
men use and in the long ago he heard
that question asked frequently by
wearied immigrants passing through
this section bound for the Willamette
valley, Amos did not know then how
far II was to the Willamette and he
doesn't know now but he does know
that times have changed considerably
in the last 70 years.

p ON

Representatives of the Japanese government
have expressed themselves as favorable to a
tcint agreement for the limitation OF naval
armament. What do the Japanese people mink
about it?
Perhaps Yukio Ozaki, former minister OF
Justice, knows as much about that as any hVlhs
man. He recently completed a speaking tour
OF japan, in the course of which he spoke IN
almost all of the important cities and towns
addressing more than 100000 representative
Jananese in more than one hundred meetings.
At every meeting he distributed postcards ask
ing his hearers to express their views on dis
armament. The final count showed that ninety
four per cent. of them favored limitation.
So much for the people. Blu suppose the
government is bluffing. and does not choose 10
do what the people want?' it may be asked
Japan is no longer an absolute monarchy
neither is it an oligarchy, though the elder

statesmen would like to make it such. japan
today is obliged to do what the people want
to almost as great a degree as western coun-
tries with the same parliamentary system or
government, and its trend toward democracy
is increasing all the time.
Mr.. ozaki has this message for the people
of the United States:
IT the American government proposes an
International conference to discuss restriction
