JAPANESE UPSET
NAVAL PACT RATIO
Fleet Being Built for Nm
chukuo Not Subject 10
Limitation, However.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

The naval ratio between the Unised
States and Japan, as agreed under the
London treaty of 1880, Is being upset by
Japan without technically violating the
pact.
According to reliable reports received
from Toxic, the japanese government Is
building q navy for the newly created
Manchukuo state.
Several cruisers, hotillas destrovers
and submarines are beins ,silt in jap
anese navy yards for M nukuo. These
ships. when ready, will fly the Nan
chukuo flag. but will be manned By
Japanese officers and sailors
Not Subject to Limitation.
In this manner, none Of the nations
which have signed the London naval
agreement will be in position TO raise
their voice because Manchukuo did not
exist at the time the agreement vas
signed. Furthermore, Manehukuo can
not be limited in its naval constructions
because. not being a naval power, II
cannot be subject to any limitation.
Japan claims the new state needs all
the means for national defense any other
nation requires, and since the Japanese
navy yards are closer to Manchukuo
than those of other countries 1t is only
natural the necessary men Of war should
be ordered from Japan, its statesmen
say.
Observers here say the sophisty of
such an argument Is fully understood in
Washington.
Yo-oS ,,az ,a,,,r ,;xal tba rafio- .ha
accepted at the London Naval Confer
ence and has been endeavoring in the
last l8 months, since the Disarmament
Conference has opened at Geneva, to
modify these ratios, which place the
Eastern empire technically In an IN
ferior position to the United States.
Inferiority Purely Nominal
OF course, this inferiority is purely
nominal, since America has never built
up to the treaty limits, while Japan and
Great Britain have done SO. Today the
Japanese Navy, while slightly inferior
to the United States in bettleships and
cruisers, is far superior to this country
in destrOyers and submarines.
The point Of view of the Japanese
government Is that Japan must not
only be equal, but superior, to the
United States In the Pacific. Since the
entire United States Fleet has been
based for the last IL months In the
Pacific, the Japanese government feels
1t needs q navy to exceed the total
forces of the United States.
At Geneva the japanese recently
have demanded parity with Great Brit
ain and America. Britain was non
committal, while the American dele
cation has been openly opposed TO 1t.
The American Government has iudi-
Gated 1t Is willing to reduce its forces,
provided the others do the same thing
and provided the established ratios are
sincerely maintained.
Since the japanese do not know
whether they will be In a position to
obtain the parity they think necessary
and do not want to be accused again
Of violating treaty, their government
has decided to adopt the policy of build
ing navy for Manchukuo, evading in
this manner the spirit of the London
Naval agreement without, however.
changing the treaty itself.

I am. therefore. assuming that you

to the urgent necessity. and my CON-
stitutional duty u to advise YOU as
to the methods for obtaining drastic
retrenchment at this time.
I am not speaking to you in gen.

The last Congress enacted legisla-

effected are small when viewed in
the light of the great deficit for the
next fiscal year. They will not meet
the pressing needs of our credit sit

saving is essential, and therefore I
am asking the Congress today for
new legislation, laying down broad
principles for the granting Of PEN
sions and other veterans benefits and
giving to the Executive the authority
to prescribe the administrative de-
tails.

We are unanimous IN upholding
the duty of the Government to care
for those who suffer in its defense
and for their widows and orphans.
The application. however, Of this
great principle to large numbers of
people involves complications so
great that it Is almost impossible to
draw legislation with sufficient fiex-
ibility to provide substantial justice
In varying situations. The proposed
legislation states the principles. and,
limited by them, permits the Execu-
tive to draw the lines Of differentia-

In accord with the same purpose
of substantial justice, request also
the enactment of legislation relating
to the salaries Of civil and military

new DEAL is
so YEARS OLD,
SURVEY SHOWS
Theodore Roosevelt Was
First President to Sug-
geSt u. S. Regulation.

BIZ Scripps-Hoodrd Neiospapsv Alliance
WASHINGTON. July 18.-How
new is the New Deals industrial re-
covery program?
It is accused Of being too lev by
half Of its ~detractors, not new
enough by the other half. The first
group says it introduces a strange
element into American life, the sec
ond says 1t is Just a rehash Of out
worn ideas" What are the facts?
The idea of federal regulation Of
business is, as a matter of fact, at
least thirty years old in American
political economy. though it never
has been tried, even during wal
times, in the way first proposed or
in the way outlined under the re-
covery act.
Theodore Roosevelt was the first
president to suggest such regulation.
In 1906 he proposed federal licensing
Of all corporations doing interstate
business, as a means Of eliminating
monopolistic and other abuses, and
during the remainder Of his term he
repeatedly asked congress to enact
such a licensing law,
Wilson Adopts Idea
The Progressive party in 1912,
with Theodore Roosevelt at it's head,
had a platform demanding strong
national regulation of interstate
corporations" and establishment of
a strong federal administrative con-
cession Of high standing which shall
maintain permanent, active super
vision over industrial corporations
engaged in interstate commerce, do
ing for them what the government
now does for national banks and
what now is done for the railroads
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission"
Woodrow Wilson in 1919 came
around to the idea of a federal
licensing Of corporations. He recon-
mended it in two messages to con-
gress, urging that the license be
issued in a way designed to secure
competitive selling and prevent
"unconscionable profits in the
method of marketing"
He pointed out t.I-.o such control
would afford a welcome opportu-
nifty to effect other much needed
reforms in the business of interstate
shipment and in the methods of
corporations which are engaged in
it."
Provisions Are Drastic
Neither of these recommendations
ever were considered seriously in
congress, probably because abuses
they were designed to curb arose
from too-great prosperity on the
part of business.
When Franklin D. Roosevelt pro-
posed his recovery program, it was
to cure the opposite malady-busi-
ness prostration due to cut-throat
competition, and it had the hearty
support of most business leaders.
Both the proposals of Theodore
Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson
were more drastic than that of the
present administration, which has
based its plan primarily on volun-
tary action by trade associations,
with the licensing power used only
as a whip for recalcitrant minori-
ties.
The two earlier plans were for
permanent operation, also, instead
of the two-year period covered by
the new deal plan.
