Every time japanese Ambassador
/ Debuchi comes to the State Depart
ment now, our diplomats hide.
Debuchi is Ambassador to Cuba a.
well as Washington. He can be very
annoying in nice way about the Gu
ban situation. He inquiries about our
progress down there in most naive
tone.
The fact is the japanese really
rant us to intervene They haze
an idea it uould justify uhat they
did in Mdnchurid. The matter has
become such Joke that there has
been tacetious speculation about
Japan protesting against American
violation of the Kellogg peace pact.
The popular thing to say here now
Is that imitation is coming, but that it
will not help much.
That is what Agriculture Secretary
Wallace has said. It Is also supposed
to be the private view OF Bernard
Baruch, now on his way back from
true.
Talk Does Much Good.
The point Is that imitation talk prob
ably does as much or more good than
imitation. It keeps buying up, even in
the face OF increased prices People
believe prices are going still higher.
They are glad to get goods even at ex-
isting increases.
That explains the astounding way
retail sales kept going during the past
three weeks.
The Ford side of the code story Is
not being told. but there is one.
The Ford Side.
The following comes from an influ-
entail Detroit citizen in q position to
know:
If Ford's factories in Detroit alone
were organized and the union dues
were 81 per month. it would mean
s50,000 a month for the union. The
money would not come from him His

already are IS good or better than the

His scale since 1913 or 1914 has gen.
