and that more warships are required
to protect the empire from outside
attack
Counterbalancing this somewhat are
statements from Koki Hirota, the new
foreign minister, and Capt Gumpei
Sekine, spokesman for the naval min
istry. The former asserts that Japan
is striving for the best possible re
lations with all foreign nations, espe-
cially the United States, China and
Russia.
"The Japanese navy is defensive,
not aggressive" Sekine asserts. "The
Japanese public does not want war;
We want honorable cooperation. We
do not want to be oppressed or dis
graced No happiness comes out Of
war. But when pressed to the wall
we will fight"
He deplores propaganda assertedly
aimed at stirring up trouble between
Japan and the United States.

between America and Japan" says
Sekine. shut there are many people
who would like to see such war. I

CPEAKING to the convention Of the
Grain and Feed Dealers National
association in Chicago, Secretary of
Agriculture Wallace uttered the warn
ing that all plans for fixing prices of
agricultural products must surely fail
unless the law of supply and demand
is complied with. Farmers, he de-
clared, must control production, and,
if they do not, even imitation will not
save them. He said the production
control measures already adopted by
the government, such as the blowing
under of cotton, the curtailment of
wheat acreage, and the slaughter and
total destruction of 100000 little pigs,
will bring about a substantial rise in
agricultural prices soon after January
1, If not before.
But this Certainty" the secretary
added, had brought from the farmers
a great cry for immediate price fixing
to tide them over the ensuing three or
four months. The general tenor of his
remarks indicated that he was op
posed to taking any such action, but
that the government was standing at
the crossroads of economic policy and
might have to listen to political clamor.
After comforting with the secretary
of agriculture and the heads of the
farm and relief administrations, Pres
ident Roosevelt announced that the
government would spend $75,000,OO0
to buy surplus food products and cot
ton and give them to the needy who
are out of employment.

said they had wrecked the island and

LAW HELD PASSED
BECAUSE OF GREED
Senator Nye Says Industrial Re-

Former Practices.

By the Associated Press.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., June 28.-
Senator Gerald P Nye, independant
Republican, of North Dakota, asserted
Monday the Government has taken
steps for the drastic regulation Of in
dustry because of the greed" of indus
trialists.
The passage of the industrial re-
covery act" he told the National As
sociation of Retail Grocers in annual
convention here, "is pleasant sur
prise and means that the Government
and Congress have at least admitted
that the old order has prevailed too
long"
Senator Nye, who is member OF the
Senate Appropriations and 1nsular Al
fairs Committees, expressed the view
Government should get into the busl-
ness of banking because it (banking)

was In the main responsible for the
terrible plight we call depression"
Praising the courageous leadership
of President Roosevelt who has dared
to seek new ways of fair play to all
and end "favoritism to few" the Sen
ator also urged the association to align
itself with the Governments program
under the industrial recovery act.
The Senator severely criticized in
vestment bankers who he said unloaded
billions in worthless securities, the
manipulations of power magnates to
gain vast control and specifically in
dicted the heads Of the Bethlehem
Steel Corp.
"Such greed forced the hand of the
Government and brought the dictation
of a new policy to take place OF the one
termed the masses and workers be
damned"
In the morning, DR.. Stephen J..
Miller, New York, director Of economics
for Dunn and Bradstreet, Inc, asserted
there was likely to be strange medley
of dictators and democracy when
