Japan is already preparing for
war with the United States, and
the time is past when the white
race can consider itself superior
to the yellow, according to Vice.
Admiral Nobumasa Suetsugu, COM
mander-in chief of the imperial
combined fleets of Japan.
Vice Admiral Seutsugu, noted
submarine expert and authority
on naval strategy, whose follow
ers include the strong Japanese
group opposed to the London ma.
val treaty, is qualified for selec.
ton as Navy Minister in the event
of war, and is the man with
whom the fate of the Empire is
likely to be entrusted in the event
of emergency.
He Changes Scheme
In an interview appearing In
the publication Gendai, SuetSugu
not only drew a pessimistic pic
ture of the future of world peace,
but also charged that resumption
of diplomatic relations between
the United States and Soviet Rus
sia involved a military scheme to
surround Japan. He said:
"A frontal clash between the
two great Pacific fleets would
seriously damage both sides.
"It is likely that the United
States would use every means
to surround Japan. We must
prepare for it, and in fact we
are already preparing for 1t.

Brown Accused of Imposing
Rules Favoring Big
Aviation Firms
BY International News Service

Charges that the Mellon indus
trial dynasty "chiselled" it's way
into domination of a company
awarded air mail contracts and
drove a passenger line into bank
ruptcy were hurled at the Senate
air mail committee hearing today.
The alleged Vaccinations of the
Mellon family of Pittsburgh, at a
time when Andrew w. Mellon was
Secretary of the Treasury. were
outlined by Theodore Tawney,
former head of Pittsburgh Air
ways.
Company Bankrupted
Tawney's company went bank
rupt in February, 1881, after vain
efforts to compete with a parallel
line to which Postmaster General
Walter F.. Brown awarded a mail
contract in 1880.
The whole affair resulted, Taw-
ney charged, in Mellon-con-
trolled company dominating one
Of the three companies awarded
transcontinental air mail con-
tracts.
Under questioning by Senator
Black CD of Alabama, Commit
tee chairman, Tawney asserted
the Delta Air Service never bid on
q mail contract, although it was
the pioneer over the present South
Srn transcontinental air mail
route from Atlanta to Fort
Worth. He said:
even before the Postmaster
General ruled that bidding
companies had to have six
months flying service, he de-
clared that bidders must be
ready to give Immediately serv-
ice with 1O-passenger planes
plus extra large space for mail.
"ThiS meant all independent
companies had to be equipped
with Ford or FOkker trimO-
tOred planes.
'Tn the resulting COMPETE
tiOn for large planes, the re-
sources Of most Independents
were not large enough to get
the number of planes in time
for bidding.

pr Thomas !. Condon, superln. |. tendent of schools, was the com. mencement speaker last night at the graduation of 296 Crosby sem iors, the largest class In the hiss tory of the school, held at the Wilby auditorium. Judge Harry J. Beardsley of the board of educa- ton, presented the diplomas. pr CorEion, introduced by Prin- cipal Louis ]. Thibodeau, told graduates of the importance of cd ucation in this country. where ut the present time more than half of the young people of high school age are in high school, and pres dicted that as time goes on therer will be an ever increasing attend ance at secondary schools.
 Education Essential No other country in the world, Dr Condon said, provides so gen. erously for the education of It's people. This policy, he continued, was absolutely essential to contir- ued advancement along scientific and social limos. Tho youth of to- day must be prepared to meet new and more difficult problems than were faced by the preceding gen. eration.
 An addition to the list of prize awards was announced by pr Con- don, who said that beginning next year Judge Beardsley would offer n prize for the best public speaker selected in n competition of the three high schools.
 Timothy A. Luddy, president of the class, introduced the class speakers. They were Lois Cham. berlain, valedictorlan; Paul Bar ton, and Jay Weisclberg, saluta. torians,

He said that 1t was to be expected that jobs would be hard to find, and hat i've should try to do ev. erything possible to mkae 1t q lit' tie easier for next years grad. uates to find positions.
 Jay Weiselberg spoke on "Pcr- sonal Evaluations,' and declared that of two major philosophles in life, that of striving for money, and that of contentment with the simpler things, the latter was the more satisfying. Tho discharge of daily work in a creditable manner and the enjoyment to be found in good books and music, he said, wero the worthwhile things in life and those which really make for happiness.
 Valedictory
 An essay called "Thc Glass Mot to-" was delivered by Lois Cham berlain. Let Us Strive for Better Things" Is the motto chosen by the class, which furnished MhD' Chamberlain with her subject, and in connection with which sho stressed the importance Of seeking improvement. Had the great men of the world been content with earlier achievements we might have been deprived of some of the greatest inventions in history, she said. The young people of the pa- ton will soon have to face ccndi. tons In which there is room for q great deal of Improvement, and much work is needed along politi- cai and social lines.
