defendants in liquor conspiracy cases

Leahy charged that the indictment

The Government seeks to take the

TSURUM| PREDICTS
TRADE STRUGGLES
Again Speaks of "Grave Con-

With immigration Law.

WILLAMSTOWN, Mass, August
3o-The phrase. grave conse-
quences," was used again by a Japa-
nese in relation to the immigration
restriction act Of the United States
when DR.. Yusuke Tsurumi said yes
terday in the last of his lectures at
the Institute of Politics that it is
likely that diplomatic incidents con-
nected with the struggle for markets
will come thicker and faster"
Although asserting that he was not
criticizing the action of the United
States, DR.. Tsurumi said that the
immigration bill had tended to con-
vince Japanese Nationalists that
Japan need expect no more CO.
operation from America" He as
serted that the Consequences" would
have far greater effect on Japan
than upon America.
Knotty Problems to Solve.
Referring to the fight for world
markets, DR.. Tsurumi said:
This means that Japan and Amer
lea will have more knotty problems
to solve in the future than in the
old days when Japan had nothing
but raw materials to sell and was a
customer and not a competitor. 1t
10 iHeoHCelSdUle tIldC any OIL CneSe
problems will be worth a harsh
word. but in international affairs, it
frequently happens that the real
cause of a dispute is utterly un-
known to the majority who quarrel
violently about some supposed issue.
The grave consequences flow from
the fact that it is now impossible
for any Japanese Liberal to convince
the conVersatives and the National
lists that the process by which the
immigration bill was passed was not
intended to serve notice on Japan
that she need expect no more CO.
operation from America, and that the
ruthless pursuit of national interests
without respect for the feelings of
others is not high and noble quail
ity of patriotism. '. - 49,
In saying this / am making no
criticism of America. The grave con-
sequences to which 1 refer will affect
the social development Of Japan far
more than the destiny of America"
DR.. Tsurumi denied that Japan
ever violated or evaded any of the
terms Of the "gentlemen's agree
ment."
