Wood, Republican, Indiana, declared
today in the House in proposing that
enforcement be transferred from the
Bureau of Internal Revenue to the
Department of Justice. His proposal
met with instant objection from
Chairman Nolstead of the Judiciary
committee, and heated debate en-
sued.
Representative Eolstead said it was
true that enforcement was "a failure
in some localities but he was of
the opinion that prohibition could be
enforced if ten states which have

Mr.. Lamont recently returned from

1T isn't so much what we do on
the immigration question AS the way
be able to devise formula that
I would meet the views of California

the japanese.
"SpeakinS in general, We American
people have not n very. intelligent
understanding of our relations with
Japan. We are apt TO be either
strongly pro-Japanese or strongly an
ti-Japanese. We arc apt. because the
military party is powerful. to criti-
cize the japanese as a whole as be
ing a militaristic nation, whereas in
my judgement. they are nation
loving peace and DESTROYS of peace
with the United States.
I'VE criticize them for burdening
their. people with taxes for n large
army and navy. and at the same time
we fail to look at our own govern
ment estimates. If we are to solve
our outstanding questions with ia
pan we must forget that now and
then we have beam in our own

United States as an old-time friend
and helper. There is every reason
why tn two nations should be on
