Farm Board Chairman Says
Chamber Has Failed to
Grasp Program.

Ey the Associated Press.
The attitude of the United States
Chamber of Commerce toward the
Farm Board as exemplif1ed in a recent
letter written by william d. Butter
worth, its president, was characterized
today by Chairman Legge as wanting
the Farm Board to hang its clothes on
hickory limb, but not go near the
water"
The Farm Board chairman was re-
ferring to letter from the Chamber
of Commerce head which said that the
chamber favored cooperative market
criminate against other business enter
prises." The letter transmitted a COPY
Of resolutions to that effect passed by
the board of directors of the national
chamber at meeting in Columbus,
Ohio.
They have failed to grasp the funda-
mentals Of the whole program" Legge
said.
The Farm Board chairman said there
had been no discrimination against any
one except where the agricultural mar
keting act puts such determinations
in the picture"
"I also will say that don't agree
with them about making slow progress, !"
Legge said. "They want to go forward
slowly. If their idea of the Farm
Board is the correct one a 21-year-old
boy should be made chairman, for we
men in the middle sixties would never
live to carry out any such program
Referring to conferences between the
Farm Board and commission grain
dealers in the Northwest, Legge said
that "the only fellow who has any real
concern in the matter is the one who
is dealing in pink tickets instead of in
wheat"

RISE OF HER SEX IN ATHLETICS
PLEASING TO NINE. TAKAR ABE
Says Americans Have Done
Much to Aid Conditions
in Her Country.
Wife of Delegate to Naval
ParIey Arrives Here in
Quaint Costume.
BY GRETCHEN SMITH.

Dressed in the costume of her native
Japan, Nine. Takarabe, wife of Admiral
T. Takarabe, one Of the Japanese arms
conference delegates, who arrived here
this morning, might have stepped from
out of a painting of one of the old
japanese masters.
Away from Japan for the first time
in her life, Nine. Takarahe was the
most interesting figure in the delega-
ton when they stepped from the train.
There is a saying in Japan" she
smiled, that one can count her chill
drcn as treasures; therefore, feel !
am very wealthy, indeed, with my six
sons and two daughters" One Of the
daughters Is living IN New York and
will be seen by her mother for the first
time in year.
Nine. Takarabe is an admirer of
American women. She has many
friends in the American colony in Toxic
and particularly admires the energy
and activity of the American women
she has met.
Approves Athletics for Women.
Approving of the introduction of
athletic sports among the girls and
young women of her country, Nine.
Takarabe states that she feels that
Japan owes great deal to the women
OF America 1Or nrSC aTOuSlnB lnCeTeSt
in athletics amor her Countrywomen.
Japanese women have been living
shut-up life for too many years." she
remarked, land feel that their adop-
ton of athletics and the living of a
greater life out-of-doors has helped
and improved the physical condition Of
Japanese girls"
While the japanese Admirars wife
highly approves OF the younger genera
ton of her countrywomen going forth
into other countries and learning West
ern methods, she states that she her
self, brought up in the old conservative
school of Japan, felt slightly hesitant
at making this long journey with her
husband. But now that she has come.
she is delighted with all she has seen
and Is looking forward with pleasure to
the trip to Europe.
Not in Feminist" Party.
Mime. Takarabe takes no active inter-
est in politics or the feminist" move
ment in her own country. Her entire
interest is centered in her home and
family and in public activities whose
purpose Is the betterment Of home con.
ditions among the poorer classes OF her
country
Evening star., 1929-12-16

While feeling that prohibition as
practiced in this country would be i'm
practical in Japan, where for genera
tions the Japanese have made use OF
alcoholic beverages moderately and
temperately, Nine. Takarabe at the
same time, feels that it would help
greatly to relieve the food problem of
Japan if less rice were used for the
manufacture of alcoholic drinks.
Highly interested in aeronautics,
Mime. Takarabe states that she has the
greatest admiration for the American
women who have entered into that
field. The one flight made by Nine.
Takarabe in a plane was an unfortu-
nately rough one. and, although she
few for IS minutes, she states that
she was considerably upset by the time
the plane landed, and her admiration
for woman flyers was greater than ever
after having flown in plane herself.
Nine. Takarabe will accompany her
husband to London and after the con-
clusion of the arms conference hopes
to travel extensively in Europe before
returning to Japan.

that irrespective of the truth of these
rumors France would hold out for the
right to this means Of defense.
