The delegates from Toxic, Admiral
Isoroku Yamamoto and Ambassador
Tsuneo Matsudaira, are convinced
they can dent the opposition by fur
ther conversations. As q result, they
asked new meeting with the Amer
leans.
But the Americans feel concessions
must come from the Japanese.
Norman H. Davis and Admiral Will
liam H. Standley told Matsudaira and
Yamamoto that junking Of the WASH
ington and London naval treaties
would not give Japan equality, because
the other two powers-Britain and
America-would keep ahead In build
ing.
There Is some American hope that
If the Japanese can be made to see this
viewpoint they will capitulate and
accept the principles of the Washing

Both England and the United States,

move is up to Japan and that there is
little possibility Of a compromise unless
she modifles her stand.

quarters that unless Japan makes con-

Jews CITE RECORD
IN PROTOCOL CASE
Original Basel Congress Pa.
pers Shown to Refute
World Rule Charge.
BY the Associated Press.


BERNE, Switzerland, October 30
Several Jewish leaders testified today
that the so-called protocols of the
elders of Zion" which alleged Jewry
planned to dominate the world, were
mere fabrications.
Members of the race have brought
a criminal libel suit in an attempt to
prove the documents false.
Those who testified today partici-
pated in the Basel congress of 1897 and
said no such protocols were adopted
either publicly or secretly by the con.
gress, which concentrated on the Gre
alton Of Jewish national home In
Palestine.
DR.. Markus Ehrenpreis, grand rabbi
Of Stockholm, submitted to the court
an original official record of the Basel
proceedings which was found to har-
monize with records existing in the
Berne Library.
"Calumny Of Race"
'The protocols are not only falsi-
fications of the Basel congress-" he
said, but they constitute Justification
and calumny Of all Jewish people and
their history Of 5000 years"
Theodore Fischer, defense attorney
and Swiss Nazi leader, caused laugh
ter, in which the court joined, when
DR.. Ehrenpreis said the real protocol
Of Jews is the Bible.
Produce the original Bible" Fischer
demanded.
The pamphlet, containing sum-
maries of the alleged protocols, -
which is the basis Of the trial, says
its protocols were adopted at Basel.
One Of the outstanding witnesses
for the prosecution was the white
haired ministerial colleague of Ker-
ensky, Paul Miljukow, who visited the
United States five times on lecture
tours. He assailed the protocols as
gross inventions which no historian,
no cultivated man, ever took seri-
ously."
Said Miljukow: "I believe the
protocols caused the pogroms ii
Russia and facilitated the advent OF
the Bolsheviks."
1ciO rdDTlCatIOn.
Henri Sliosberg, the Jewish legal
adviser in the Russian foreign office
in the reign Of the last Car, testi-
fled that the government asked his
opinion as to whether the protocols
were authentic and he decided that
they were fabrications designed to
bolster up the anti-Semitic movement
and justify the combat against the
growing liberal tendencies In Russia.
Only lunatics could have written
the protocols, testified David Farb-
stein, Jewish member Of the Swiss
Parliament, who was q delegate to
the Basel congress in 1897.
Fischer, burly leader Of Switzer-
lands little band of Nazis, said today
that he, and not Adolf Hitler, Is the

| DEMOCRATS Determined
| GUST SENATOR KEAN
Gov. Moore's Popularity Counted
Upon to Win Majority in
Election.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN,
Stan CORRESPONDENT of The Star.

NEWARK, N. j., october 30.-Jer-
sey, ordinarily Republican, seems bent
this year on electing its Democratic
Governor, A. Harry Moore. to the
United States Senate in place of Sem
ator Hamilton F. Kean, Republican.
But while Gov. Moore's victory a
few weeks ago looked to be easy, a
swing against the New Deal in New
Jersey and a new interest in the cam
paign on the part Of the great COM
muter vote" has changed the outlook
considerably. Whether the swing will
be sufficient to give Senator Kean a
victory Is decidedly questionable. It
has encouraged the Republicans
greatly, and made the Democrats, who
seemed to be inclined to suffer from
overconfidence, sit up and take notice.
Vote Has Proved Republican.
1t is this great commuter vote. which
includes the hundreds of thousands
of men-and women-who leave their
homes in Jersey to 60 into New York,
into Newark in the Northern section
of the State and to go into Philadel-
phia and Camden in the Southern sec
ton, for their work day, which has
made the State Republican strongly
in presidential years. In of years
1t does not as a rule. bother to 60
to the polls. The commuter vote this
year Is becoming more and more anti
New Deal, 1t Is said, and furthermore,
the wives of the commuters-who have
much to do with the political activities
in the sections they live-are sitting
up and taking notice.
If on election day these women take
their husbands and brothers and
fathers to the polls on their return
from the city, it is likely to make a
great difference. On the other hand,
II they take them home to dinner the
fortunes Of Senator Kean are likely
to be at low ebb.
Kean Strong in Opposition.
Kean has made q real anti-New
Deal campaign, stressing his opposi-
ton to the N. r. A., the A. A. A. and
the great spending program of the
Roosevelt administration The issue.
therefore, is quite closely drawn in
this senatorial contest, for Gov. Moore
is running as q thoroughgoing sup
porter Of the President. Jersey, in the
Literary Digest poll, is shown to be
pretty strongly opposed to the New
Deal. The percentages given for the
State in this poll are 6l.l4 against and
only 1886 for the New Deal Further
more. the ants, according to the latest
poll, have increased very greatly.
The Democrats are counting largely
on the personal popularity of their
senatorial candidate. Moore has twice
been elected Governor Of the State.
He is known as great vote getter.
They look upon Senator Kean as
gentleman but no rabble raiser. The
Democrats are by no means convinced
that President Roosevelt and New
Deal have stopped as much as the
