TOKYO, Sept. 2O.-The three
most eminent Japanese with
American ''pasts" are Korekiyo
Takahashi, former minister of FL
rance; Count Kentaro Kaneko,
privy councillor, and Yosuke
Mstsucka, chief defender of Jap
ans Manchurian activities before
TIE League of Nations in 1928.
Takahashi is 80 years old, with
the American chapter of his life
65 years behind him. When ii, he
served as an indentured worker in
California, chatting at his lot and
such tasks as driving the cows
home for milking.
When he was 10, he and another
boy were chosen by the elders Of
their clan to go to the United
States to learn the language and
customs of the strange "barbar-
ians" then knocking at Japan's
door.
They were bound for three
years in California under a form
of term-labor contract then much
used in that state. But Taskahashi
was such an unruly servant that
his employer was glad to release
him after nine months.
Returning to Japan, Takahashi
taught school. got into government
service and rose to be minister Of
finance, which post he held in six
cabinets. In 1922 he was
prime minister.
Count KanekO, now 81 and one
of the seniors Of the privy coun-
Gil. was graduated in law from
Harvard in 1873. At Cambridge
he began a close, friendly relation
with America and Americans that
survived half a century, making
him an interpreter to his country
men of the United States and its
ideals.
Admired Roosevelt
At the close of the Russo
japanese war in 1905, after he
had held two cabinet posts.
Kaneko was appointed to the dele
CATION that negotiated peace with
Russia at Portsmouth. During
that stay in America. he formed
an attachment with, and vast ad-
miration for, President Theodore
Roosevelt. Back in Japan, he
wrote frequently of his talks with
AZ. r. and insisted that the Presi-
dent then (1905-07) approved

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2O.-A
diminutive, unassuming man who
worked as a child in the wooden
mills of England stands out as the
principal figure in what may be
the nations greatest strike.
Francis J. German was thrust
into the national limelight by the
vote Of the United Textile Work
ers giving him supreme command
of the general textile walkout.
He was a messenger in wooden
mill in Bradford, Yorkshire. Eng
land, when his family in 1903 de-
cided to seek the greater oppor-
tunities they heard existed in
America, but for German it meant
merely another textile mill.
Skilled Wool Sorter
He became a skilled wool sort
er in Providence, r. l., and Law
renee, Mass, and within a few
years became president of the
Rhode Island wool sorters union.
He gained prominence in textile
union circles in famous strike in
Pawtucket, and in 1924 left the
textile looms to become a paid Of

Congressional Election Campaign
Now Gets Under Way In Earnest
Republicans Are Said To
Be Laying High Hopes
For Gains In Coming
Contests
By HERBERT PLUMMER
Inv Aasoelafed preaal

WASHINGTON. Sept. 20
There is a noticeable improve
ment in the esprit de corps among
republicans as the congressional
slsetion campaigns get under way
In earnest.
Even abe most pessimistie of
shs party admit things are looking
uP. They declare prospects Of a
coed showing in the November
elections are much better.
Some Of those who three months
ago shook their heads sadly when
the subject was mentioned now
speak confidently of picking up
40 or so seats in the house this
fall and holding what they have
In the senate.
The reason for the change in
sentiment is due to several diff
ferent factors.
The resentment reported in the
west among farmers toward the
AAA-aggravated by the drought
lis one.
Unmistakable signs of a re-
vival Of party spirit is another.
New Deal Criticism
Then there is what they describe
as the increasing criticism of the
''new deal" especially MIRA,
among business men who hereto
fore have been willing to stay in
line.
A feeling of unrest about what
ultimately will be done with the
easrrency is reported. And there's
uneasiness In some quarters over
the final outcome of some Of the
gigantic enterprises launched un-
der the "new deal"
The democrats are not unmind-
ful Of this new feeling of en-
enlargement among the republi-
cans. They are doing and will
continue To do everything within
their power 10 offset it.
All signs point to an increase
tn briskness and rOughness in the
efforts of both parties as the cam
paigns continue.
Eager For The Fray
Although the time for with
holding Or tempering criticism of
the "new deal" on the part Of the
republicans seems near an end,
the democrats continue to advance
~ one Of their main arguments
that the welfare of the country
should come before politics.
They want to cling as long as
they can to the old argument that
Il Is unpatriotic To criticize the
"new deal" An example of this
Is "a be had in recent speech de-
tivercd by Senator j. Hamilton
Lewis of Illinois, chairman of the
democratic senatorial campaign
committee. entitled Conspiracy
Of Politics and Its Assault Upon
America.
However II turns out. it can be
put down as a certainty the con
gFessional elections campaign
from now on will be fought out
bitterly on both sides, Republicans
are eager for the fray, democrats
are overlooking nothing.
