FORMER JAP PREMIER
IS REGAINlNG GRIP
ON NATIONS AFFAIRS
CBy Associated Press)

TOXIC, Sept. 26.-F'riends OF Taxa
shi Hara, Japan's Prime Minister, says
that far from being overthrown by his
political oppopents. he seems every
week to be getting a stronger grip
upon the Empire, and now stands forth
a powerful dominating figure, like
Clemenceau and later BRAND in France
and Lloyd George in England.
Hara, the imperturbable, some one
has styled him. His smooth-shaven,
smiling face seems crowned too young
with pure white hair. He never loses
his calm even when others of his
official family depart for a moment
from traditional oriental impassive-
ness when some such event as, for
example. the American suggestion to
discuss farEastern policies. comes un-
expected. and. perhaps, undesired.
At the cabinet councils he is said
to impose his will like a Napoleon,
end like Napoleon he sleeps but five
hours a day. II is a common opinion
among Japanese that he is the man
who decides almost all important is
sues coming before the cabinet, other
ministers merely serving as his secre-
taries, so autocratic is he in the handl-
ing of the government affairs. Jap
anese attribute his domination of his
cabinet TO his indomitable will power
end political sagacity or cleverness.
Complex Character
There is saying that TO under
stand Japan's foreign and domestic
policies one needs TO understand Ia.
kashi Hara's character: but Mr.. Hara
is not a personality to be understood
Ixrox lroAne VoIa IN
himself and very few of his ministers
or close associates know anything
about his intended move until the last
moment 1t is believed that it was
Mr.. Hara and not the home minister
who recommended that drastic steps
be taken to handle the labor situation
in Kobe when the issue was brought
up for final decision of the cabinet,
and his word became law, whether
good or had
Reporters find Hara hard man to
interview. He is gracious enough, but
his flashes of humor disturb them
Some of them tried to get him to talk
about the Washington conference the
other day. He spared for a while
and then added: Now. let's stop talk
ing shop. | don't like to talk every
day about such dry subjects. feel

native city of mine This was a ref
erence to Morioka. where he was Wis
iting.
How about my health? It's fine,
If only get five hours sleep, which
IS hard enough to get these days Mrs.
Hara? She has recovered-may be
because she has stopped smoking"

PENNSY DENIES.
BOARDS RIGHT.
To INTERFERE
Representatives of Road Pre-
sent Letter Opposing Privii-
lege of Entering Realm of
Management
DEADLOCK REMAINS
fRy Associated Press


CHICAGO, Sept. 26-Representa-
ives of the Pennsylvania railroad
presented letter to the United States
railroad labor board today denying
the right of the board "to enter the
realm of management" and stating
that lin view of the fact it could not
discuss any of three points the board
allowed it to discuss" it would not
present oral argument
The board accepted the letter and
announced it would give a decision
at later date
The action leaves the decision of
the board calling for a new election
of members of shopcraft committee
to arrange rules and working condi-
tions still in force but with the rail-
road company denying the right Of
the board to make such an order, or to
enter into any other phase of differ
ences between the carriers and the
men, except the hearing Of and ad-
judication of disputes.
Pennsy Application
The Pennsylvania in it's application
for a hearing asked that the board
hear 1t upon the issue of law and facts
as to the right of the board to make
rulings upon elections.
The reply of the board allowed the
company to present facts concerning
what employees not in the active serv-
ice of the carrier such as men laid
off. furloughed. or absent on leave,
shall participate in the election of
committees, and how the representa-
tive capacity of spokesmen of unor-
ganized employees shall be ascer-
tanned"
The carrier also was permitted to
offer evidence of the adoption or rati-
fication of its shopcraft rules by rep
resentatives of the crafts, fairly
elected by majority of that class:
Rea Asserts Right.
Samuel Rea, president of the rail-
road, in a letter to the board, made
public last night, asserted the right
of the carrier to deal with It's own
employees without the intervention of
individuals or organizations whose
manifest object is the denial of the
fundamental right of employer and
employees to deal in the first instance
directly with each other respecting e
wages and working conditions in which
they alone are directly interested"
The company on Aug "a asked the
board to set aside its decision calling
for a new election of shop crafts COM
mittees to negotiate with the carrier
The board granted the company's re-
quest but limited the hearing to GER
tain points.

TUBERCULOSIS

State Authority Says Smith

Urges Protection of Public
Health.
TO BENEFITS

Few institutions in or outside of In
diana have better place for tuber-
culosis hospital than has Wayne coun-
ty,' said Murray A. Auerbach, exc
cutive secretary of the Indiana Tuber-
culosis association, following a visit to
Smithfield, Wayne county's proposed
site. Saturday afternoon
Mr.. Auerbach went over the site
very thoroughly Saturday after hav-
ing discussed the erection of a hos
pltal with number of interested local
citizens, Saturday morning. He was
pleased with the lay of the land and
said there should be no hesitancy
about building hospital upon the
site available south of Richmond.
Il realize the difficulty confronting
the county commissioners" Mr.. Auer-
bach said They do not wish to raise
the tax rate of the county, but | hope
they will not lose sight of bigger
things in trying to hold down the rate.
The health of a community must be
considered of prime importance.
SmithfieId is Ideal.
The Smithfield location is an ideal
one. The farm and hospital grounds
are separate, and | believe enough
ldTUl
to practically supply the patients with
much of the needed foods
Mr. Auerbach suggested that light
farming be followed upon the farm so
that patients able to do light work
could take part in helping to produce
the necessities.
tuberculosis hospitals are general
ly considered as a gloomy place That
Is wrong. AS an institution they are
OF oenent to a community. 1t is proved
by hospitals now in operation that the
land about hospital always increases
in value.
Never are tuberculosis hospitals
detrimental to the community in
winch they are placed. 1t also has
peen found that there is much less
Danger of contracting the disease
ABOUT the hospital than there is from
the public streets"
Relates State Situation.
speaking of the situation in tba
state, Mr.. Auerbach said:
While Indiana ranks second amony
tne states of the middle western groun
as regards freedom from tuberculosie
there is still much to do before the
state may be proud of its work against
tne disease.
Thanks to the work of the health
authorities, the vigilance of the doe
TORS and the educational program of
the tuberculosis association. the
oeath rate in Indiana is steadily de-
creaslng 1t was lower last wear
than IN 1919, and in fact, has shown
a constant improvement, all things
consloered, since 1915.
Each year the people of Indiana
Guy more literally of the penny seals,
and the money they spend spreads the
propaganda against the disease. This
helps cut down the death rate. but
indiana must do more than she has
done. We must aim not merely to
equal the Michigan record of IS
deaths per 100000 population, but we
must try to make the state as safe
from tuberculosis as Kansas, where
the death rate is only 81, or Utah.
where 1t is 45 per 100000.
1ndiana's death rate from tuber.
culosis for the year 1919 was 11O.29
