Austin, Texas.-Under ma" Fergu-
sons regime as Governor of Texas the
prohibition laws will be enforced only
so far as public sentiment demands
their enforcement. This the new Gov
ernor told the Legislature in her first
message.
Public officials are going to enforce
the law only in proportion to the popu-
lar demand for such enforcement" she
informed the lawmakers. That she
does not intend to use the Texas Rang.
ers in enforcing the law was indicated
in her address.
Ex-Governor Neff, MAS" predeces-
sor, attempted to make Texas "bone-
dry"
But MAS" levity toward prohibit
ton is Offset somewhat by her pro-
posal for impositions on tobacco. She
advocates a tax bill on all Texas
smokers, which she would use to help
pay for the education of Texas chill
dren. The new Executive proposed to
tax cigars and cigarettes. IF smokers
aren't interested in the great cause of
education" she said, call they have to
do is to cut out smoking until such
time as the desire for smoking shall
overcome opposition to education"
She suggested tax of SIS to $40 a
thousand on cigars and tax of So a
thousand on cigarettes. Estimating
that there are 100000 smokers in
Texas, she reckons this would bring
in revenue of $4,OOO,O00 all of which
she would apply to the education of
school children.
Funds derived from automobile Ii
censes, the cost of which ma" would
reduce from SIG to S., she would use
exclusively on Texas roads Her pro-
posal regarding gasoline was to raise
the tax from one cent to three cents a
gallon.
MAS" message demanded sweep
ing reduction in Texas expenses and
proposed a cut in Texas taxes, not
ably in automobile fees, which she
would reduce by more than half. AT
the same time, she would raise the
gasoline tax.
One Of MAS" bitterest enemies dur
ing her campaign for the Governorship
was a prominent member of the Ku
Klux Khan who owns chain of drug
stores. Without mentioning any names,
the Governor asked that "bootlegging
drug stores be driven out of business
The message was read and reread
with great interest throughout Texas.

New York.-Before an awe-stricken
audience of 100000 persons, the
sun, moon and the stars Saturday
staged spectacle of unequaled beauty

forever in the memory Of those who
witnessed it.

ing and recording such events, instead
of hiding from them, in terror-stricken
prayers. Gleefully they peered through
cavernous telescopes and cranked
huge cameras, while millions of other
earth-beings stared through smoked
glass, awed and silent.
One of the trysters-some said the
sun and some said the moon-was five
seconds late, reckoning by the astral
calendars of scientists. But the meet
ing lost none of its zest or glamoI
thereby, for it was the first tryst OF
sun and moon in this segment of the
heavens for ITO years, and it will be
more than two centuries before they
meet there again.
Weather conditions for observation
were described as almost generally
perfect throughout the East, where
most of the fixed observatories and
laboratories were located.
Hundreds of telescope records were
made and as many photographs taken
from land, sea and air. Scientists
felt justified in declaring that a huge
fund of information undoubtedly had
been added to their, store of general
and specific knowledge about such
mysteries as the content Of the Suns

simultaneously with a telegram re
ceived by Governor Richie from DR.
Frank j. Monaghan, Health Commits
sioner of New York city, that the me
tropolis has not banned Maryland oys'
tiers, the first order in many weeks
for shipment of oysters to Chicago
was received at Crisfield.
In his telegram to Governor Richie
DR.. Monaghan said a single shipment
of Tangier Sound oysters had beer
condemned because Of high bacteria
content. The condemnation order. he
declared, did not apply to any other
shipments of Chesapeake Bay oysters
The telegram was received by Gov
ernor Richie at Salisbury shortly be
fore he addressed members OF the
Del-Mar-Va Press Association and the
Maryland Press Association on the
oyster situation, The Governor ex
pressed pleasure that Maryland oys
tiers were not to be excluded from the
New York market.
Jubilation of the Crisfield packers
over the Chicago order was reported
by q. o. Townsend, chief inspector Of
the Conservation Commission, on his
return to Baltimore from an inspec-
ton trip. The oyster industry at
Eastern Shore centers continues to
improve, Mr.. Townsend said.
Because no embargo has been placed
against Maryland oysters by New
York it will be unnecessary to send
an inspector to Maryland, DR.. Monag-
han asserted in his telegram to the
Governor. Oysters, he said, are ex-
arnined as they are received in New
York, and if shipments are found to
be unclean they are condemned. New
York will cooperate with Maryland
in righting whatever injury has been
done to the oyster industry, he
promised.

He emphasized the necessity of ex.
aiming negroes, who, he said, are
more susceptible to tuberculosis than
white persons.
DR.. Robert H. Riley, chief of the
Bureau of Communicable Diseases,
said the department felt it had had a
good year in view of a decrease in the
total number of cases of all kinds of
diseases and particularly because of
the decrease in. typhoid fever and

Washington. "A waiting policy and
tolerant attitude toward America by
Japan based on confidence that a
sense of justice in this country will
effect satisfactory solution Of the i'm
migration problem, was advised in the
Japanese Diet at Toxic by Baron Shi-
dehara, the Foreign Minister, former
Iy Ambassador to the United States.
The address, significant because it
advises against jingoism among the
Japanese people just as hasty outcries
against the Japanese have been Off
cially discouraged in the United
States, was regarded as of enough i'm
portance to cause the Japanese EN-
bassy at Washington to issue the text
here.
The embassy gave out at the same
time an address to the Diet by Wis
count Kato, the Premier of Japan.
which declared policy of national de-
tense, announced Government pro-
gram for universal suffrage for lower
house members OF the Diet and dis
cussed the financial position Of the
Japanese Government.
Baron Shidehara REDEEMED the
Chinese policy Of the Japanese Gov
eminent and spoke Of the treaty just
signed restoring diplomatic relations
with Russia. In this connection he
took occasion to deny that Japan had
any idea of Bargaining away the rec
ognition of the Soviet Gernment in re-
turn for oil and coal concessions.
The entire address was pitched on
q note of advocacy of the furthering
of peaceful International understand
ing.
1T is evident. said Baron Shide-
hara, in turning to America relation
ships, .that the United States and
Japan should live in cordial friendship
and cooperate in the great mission of
promoting the peace and security Of
the Pacific regions and of the world.
We are confident that these views are
shared by the vast majority of the
American people.
I'VE regret the discriminatory
clause against Japanese in the immi-
grafton act of 1924. The question still
remains unsettled.
SIT should, however, be remembered
that a law cannot be modified except
by law, and that under the constitu-
tional system of the United States the
Legislature is entirely independent of
the Executive 1t is obvious that con-
tinuance of discussions between the
two governments at this time will not
IN itself serve amy useful purpose.
What is really important is that the
American people shall come to have a
correct understanding of our people
and Of our points of view.
. l5".An impetuous mood or impassioned
utterance will not -conduce to an inter-
national understanding. There is no
doubt that same love of justice that
kindled American independence still
continues to inspire the minds of the
American people. The day viii come
when this fact will be fully, demon
strated"
In concluding his address Baron
Shidehara defined the guiding prin-
ciple of Japanese foreign policy gas
one intended ito safeguard and to pro-
mote our legitimate rights and inter-
ests with due respect to those Of other
nations and to advance international
cooperation instead Of international
Rntagonism." s
