Japan Stakes All
 On Manchoukuo
Success There Means Empires Success Says High
 Government Official

we are maintaining them now. We are buying a great deal of foreign material, other than Jap- anese, and we are willing to listen to as many foreign capitalists as may come to Manchoukuo with proposals for commercial develop ment.
 "In practice, however, Japan is getting the bulk of the business. The Japanese have every advan- tage in the competition for trade. We admit that Manchoukuo could not live without the support of Japanese and it is natural that, since many of us, who are of- ficials we look to the mother coun- try for what we want.
 Japan Has Advantage
 Japan, too, enjoys a great ad- vantage over any other country because of the cheapness of her products, her ability to finance commercial transactions here, and her proximity to this market.
 "It is our contention, however. that world commerce and eco monies will benefit enormously from the creation of Manchoukuo. Japan still is great importing nation and if we buy goods from Japan 1t is obvious Japan will buy more from other countries. Japan, for example, has to buy raw cotton in the United States to spin into the cloth she sells here in Manchoukuo. If we buy more Japanese cloth the Japanese will buy more American cotton"

ScOvill Official Gives Talk on Recovery
 Act
LAUDS MANUFACTURERS

John V. Montague, assistant treasurer and controller of the Scovill Manufacturing Company. at a meeting of the Bridgeport Chap ter of National Association of Cost Accountants with the Bridgeport Manufacturers' Association at the Hotel Barnum, declared that in- dustrial executives who have kept abreast of all times will experience little or no difficulty under the codes of the Industrial Recovery Act.
 He ,lauded the cooperative spirit of Connecticut Manufacturers and outlined the blanket code and ex- plained the manner in which the manufacturers would be affected. Competition will still exist, he added, and the manufacturers would only be restricted when found to be infringing on the rights of the public. Business men will be allowed to sell at a price below that of their competitors providing they do not violate ethi- cal practice.
 Politics must not be allowed to play a part in the economic rec construction program, he warned. He spoke emphatically of the im- portance of choice of leaders to administer the Recovery Act.
 The trade associations will have all the power of the Federal gov- ernment behind them in enforcing codes." he continued. "The Pres ident has 8 powerful weapon, in his power to prescribe codes for industries which fail to adopt one. Those who fail to conform with the spirit of the Recovery Act from the outset or afterwards should be subject to severe penal ties including fines and imprison- ment"

 Hsinking, Manchoukuo, (UP)- The Japanese empire will stand or fall on the success of Manchou- kuo!"
 The speaker was high official of the Manchoukuo government, and formerly in the Japanese diplomatic service. He spoke as a Japanese and not as Man. choukuo official.
 There are thousands of Japan- csc in the service of the new Manchurian independent state" and I found the attitude of this official typical of their viewpoint To these men Manchuria is more than a country-it is a symbol of the greatness of modern Japan.
 Chinese Reconcilcd
 The official went on to explain that resistance of the Chinese population to the new government is decreasing, banditry gradually is being eliminated, and public services improved. A vast plan for the building of Hsinking into a great modern capital is under way, he said, and national im- provements have been started on a great scale. A limited system of national airways, connecting the principal cities of, the state by regular air mail and passenger service, already Is in operation a number of new railway lines either already have been opened or are under construction.
 The Chinese Eastern Railway, renamed the North Manchurian railway, is in the possession of and negotiations for the formal purchase of Soviet Russia's interest in the line are going forward.
 Japan to Run Railroad
 The official admitted that Man. choukuo undoubtedly will operate the C. D. R. to suit herself re- sardless of whether Russia agrees to the purchase plan or not.
 And if Russia should attempt | to regain control of the railway | by force?" I suggested.
 "She will not" he said. "The | soviets do not want war with Japan." ..'-
 The official was equally frank about foreign insistence on ob- ,ervance of the principles of equal opportunity" and the "open 1oor." ''.'

LOAN FUND MAY
 AID STUDENTS


 Evanston, IlL-(UP)-Within a short time 100000 students with out funds may be able to return to college.
 This announcement was made following proposal by the Amer ican Alumni Council urging the establishment of a credit union, which would provide $15,000,00O to be loaned to students lacking the necessary cash for tuition this fall.
 < A survey, by a special commit tee of the council, among TOO col- leges in the country, revealed a desperate need for a loan system.
 Through a credit union, backed by students with means, and alumni and faculty, members of the council feel that the emer- gency could be met. Present loan funds, the council learned through the survey, are not adequate to meet the problem, since $40,000,- 900 will be topped from education- al budgets for the 1933-34 terms, throwing approximately 6,000 pro- fessors out of work, and prevent ing between 60,000 and 100000 students from returning to school in the fall term.

Rev Joseph Sweeney, NM, a native Of New Britain who ad- dressed the Holy Name of.

 In the province of Kwangtung in South China where he plans to open the 1eper colony, there are thousands of persons afflicted with leprosy. Due to very limited funds Father Sweeney and his aides will have to start in small way, but are hopeful of caring for many thousands of these poor people in the years to come.

''The process of modernization is not going to stop with car con- struction, improved motive power and interior improvements. It is doubtful if single grade crossing will be left in the United States a few years hence. Their elimination is no longer looked on purely as railroad duty, for the grade cross- ing is a result of highway exten- sion and even now the government is considering the task as part of the projected public works pro- gram. Here is employment for an army of men. and the right sort of employment, for the job is SO per cent labor and only 40 per cent material.
 "Pullmans. as we know them now, are going to take their place in the Smithsonian along with shaving mugs, bootjacks, horsehair furniture and other fossil remains. The red plush seats that Ruther- ford B. Hayes used to admire are scheduled for the junk pile, and the new seating arrangement will be made up of lounges, settees and big comfortable chairs. There will be no bumps or jars: every pos- sible part of a car will be mounted in live rubber. Artificial ventila- tion will eliminate dirt and noise."

Response Given to Rabbi's Appeal $1,335 Raised Last Night for Institute Play-
 grounds

Following stirring appeal by Rabbi Moses D. Sheinkopf sub- scriptions totalling S1,335 were pledged at meeting of the Water bury Hebrew Institute last night toward the purchase price of the new playground adjoining the in- stitute building. These pledges swelled the total to $2,335 as $1,00O was bequeathed in the will of the late MT Ardes of Watertown.
 Rabbi Sheinkopf in his address urged Waterbury Jews to launch what the termed a campaign for religious and spiritual recovery. He advised all to cooperate with Presi- dent Roosevelt in bringing about industrial recovery and suggested organizing an intensive campaign for another kind of recovery, spir- itual recovery.
 Committees were named to con- tinue the efforts to raise funds un- til the purchase price of the land is collected.

Saturday and Sunday
 Dancing at Quassapaug

Don't forget the Saturday and Sunday dancing at Lake Quassa- paug! Although for years Man. ager O'Connell has been beseized with requests for Sunday night dancing, it was only recently that he decided to open the pavilion on Sunday evenings. Quassapaug has an enviable reputation through out the state because of the con- servative way in which it has al- ways been conducted, and that is the reason why year after year it has been the most popular summer park in this vicinity. It Is so sit- uated that it is cool and delight full even during the warnest wealth CT and is just the place to spend a few hours on summer day. There are plenty of bath houses, which are kept in the best of con- dition and it is we'll worth the trip to the lake to take dip in the invigorating water. The lake boasts of an up to date speed boat, nu- merous motor boats, well con- structed canoes and even any num- Der of row boats for anyone, who wishes to hire them. Although many outings have booked for this weekend, Manager O'Conrfell will have plenty of assistants to take care of everybody.

WALLACE PLEADS
FOR TRADE REVIVAL
Tells Civic Forum U. S. Must
Decide Upon National or
International Policy.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 25.-Secre-
tary Wallace of the Agriculture Depart
ment last night carried his plea for
restoration of foreign purchasing power
by systematic efforts to lower tariffs and
negotiate reciprocal trade agreements to
the civic forum. group of consumers.
After a campaign in the Middle West
against the farmers holiday movement
Wallace came into historic Town Hall
here to urge "a truly scientific revision"
Of tariffs.
To get by without any reduction of
acreage at all might require the I'M
portation of nearly billion dollars
more stuff than we received in 1929"
said Wallace after lengthy exposition
OF the farm problem in which he dis
cuSsed Government acquisition of SUBJ
marginal farm land.
Must Examine Resources.
"A truly scientific readiustment of
our tariff policy would involve the care
full examination of every product pro-
duced in the United States or imported.
and the determination of just which of
our monopolistic or inefficient industries
we are willing to expose to real foreign
competition"
The problem, Wallace commented.
could not be approached from the view
point of Democrats or Republicans, but
from the standpoint of a long time ma
tional plan which the country was will
Ing to follow for at least 20 or 30 years.
He declared that the time has come
for the Nation to do some genuine
thinking on the tariff problem in a
new Way-and that the thinking should
not be done by the special interests
which have stormed Congress success
fully in the past.
The real thinking on the tariff
should be done by the consumers, and
rot by the blind, selfish, narrow mind
ed, greedy individuals who have framed
our policy in the past" he added.
Warns Against Foreign Loans.
Wallace warned against the idea of
loaning money abroad at the present
time to enable foreign nations to pur-
chase goods from the United States
when this country has no intention of
receiving anything in return. He said
he would not object to foreign loans if
this country's tariff was cut in half
and the Nation was willing to receive
quantities of goods from abroad.
The speaker, discussing the farm
strike in the West. asserted that it was
his observation that outside of the
farmers holiday group there are very
few farmers who are at present willing
to submit to the compulsory control of
marketing by the Government. even
though their prices might be substan-
tally increased"
Secretary Wallace said the great
question is where We shall find the
courage and the tenacity that will be
required to take. and to stick to. either
