tion In Europe today may be said TO
be even more alarming than 1t was
20 years ago, prior 10 the Great War.
1T is all the more incumbent upon
us to exert every effort to restore
international relations to their nor
NAL condition and to secure perma-
nent peace"
Concerning China, our near
est neighbor, we are watching de-
velopments there with the utmost
concern because they affect imme-
diately and with the highest impor-
tance the situation in Eastern Asia.
I'VE believe it is Japan's high mis-
sion to contribute to the maintenance
Of peace and order and the cultural
advancement in Eastern Asia.
Soviet Relations Considered.
"The Japanese people, fully realiz-
ing their great responsibilities in this
regard, are striving to fulfill them.
The matter of readjustment of re-
lations between Japan and Soviet
Russia is being given careful consid-
Grafton.
Concerning difIicultieS regarding
trade which Japan recently en-
countered in various quarters Of the
globe, believe they can be settled
through mutual concession and con-
Citation.
We are rapidly advancing nation.
whose aspiration, however, is to
achieve progress while ever maintain

II am confident" Premier Okada
said in conclusion, that when the
powers fully appreciate. as hope
they will. Japans real position and
her role as a major stabilizing force
in Eastern Asia, it will not after all
be so hard TO solve all problems re-
lating TO this region, and naval prob

q better position TO contribute to the
furtherance of the peace and welfare
Of mankind"

GEORGIA LABOR FIRM
IN ATTACK ON STATE
Leader Declares Federation Is
Completely in Line With
President.
BY the Associated Press.

ATLANTA, July 3l.-The Georgia
Federation OF Labor stands firmly on
the issue that between Gov. Talmadge
and President Roosevelt I'VE are un-
equivocally and irrevocably behind
the Presidents program Of recon-
struction and recovery" J. Sid Tiller,
president Of the State Federation,
said today in q statement.
Tiller's statement was in reply to
one issued by the Governor yesterday
after a resolution adopted by the Ex-
ecutive Board of the States major
union labor organization condemning
Talmadge's stand for lower wages
had been made public.
The Governor declared "the State
Of Georgia cannot afford to pay for
unsdlled labor higher wages than the
average taxpayer himself can earn. +"
The Governor said further he had no
quarrel with labor and labor had none
with him.
"In adopting the resolution con-
demning Gov. Talmadge and the State
Highway Board for their efforts to
impose conditions Of virtual peonage
upon the workers of Georgia" Tiller
said today, "the Executive Board acted
with reluctance. because several mem
berS Of the board are personal friends
Of the Governor, but friendship does
not deter trade unionists from adher-
ing to a fundamental principle"

The Government machine was al
ready vast and intricate before the
advent of the new deal, but, with new
commissions and administrations be-
ing set up almost every day-there
have been between 30 and 40 new
ones--it is impossible 10 keep printed
directories up TO date, and. without
some central clearing house OF in
formation, it would be q hopeless task
to try to run down the habitat Of some
Of the fiedgling creations. For days
certain of them we're unhoused and
went about hunting for a home. In
these circumstances the Information
Service itself has to do a lot Of
scouting to keep up with the process
SION and be able to justify itself.
Letters From All Over World.
Although so per cent Of the appeals
for help come from the Government
departments, Senators and Repre-
sentativeS also dump troublesome in
quiries from constituents on the bu-
reau, and letters pour in not only
from all over the United States, but
from all parts OF the world. Letters
have come from Siam and from
China. Great curiosity about the
working Of the various plans put into
effect here is manifested in all for
eign countries.
II department receiues a letter
concerning q matter iUhich is not
under its jurisdiction it sends it to
the Information Service to be routed
to the correct destination. The
part Of the public tUhich has gained
knowledge of the Serpice seems to
regard tt as omnipotent and ON
ntScent and veTy soon it probably
t0iu be called upon to solUe do
HeSttc difficulties.
One writer asked that the bureau
furnish a formula which will ex-
tract paint and sizing glue from shade
cloth without injuring the muslin. u
From the deep South came the Mace
donian cry, send me a bulletin on
termites, boring beetles and other
insects"
Besides answering questions about
the Government and the operation OF
new laws, the service, as a side line,
is almost a missing persons bureau.
When the post Office. telegraph or
telephone companies are unable to
find a person at a given address they
usually turn to the U S. I. S.
Report From Davis.
Since his return from Europe, Am
bassador at Large Norman Davis has
several times publicly expressed his
belief that there was no immediate
danger Of war in Europe, but the
reasons for this conviction only be-
came known on his visit here.
Mr.. Davis reported that there is
deep social unrest in all countries,
but, so far from this making inter-
national conflict probable, it is just
the other way around. The dis
gruntled and disaffected peoples are
not angry with their neighbors and
have no wish to fight them.
They seem to realize that they
and their retohborS are all in the
same boat and that their troubles
are economic, not political or racial.
Hence, the anger that is in them
is directed dgdinSt their oton ooU-
erHmentS and not against the
foreigner.
Another check on war moves is the
fact that the various governments are
quite aware of this feeling among the
people. They know the masses have
no stomach for war and, if one were
undertaken, they could not be sure
the people would not change the di-
rection of it.

Code.
BY the Associated Press.
The Institute of American Meat
Packers has formally notified Hugh S.
johnson that packers ARE not in
volved" in the Chicago stock yards
strike.
William Whitfield Woods, president,
telegraphed the N. r. A administrator
yesterday in reply to Johnson's tele-
gram to Blue Eagle headquarters that
he would impose a code on the pack
ers If necessary to help solve the
strike.
Woods telegram said, in part:
Referring to your reported telegram
published yesterday regarding the
stock yard strike, we should like to
say the packers are not involved in
any way in the strike at the stock
yards. Incidentally, there Is no con-
gestion at the yards.
The packing industry has CO.
operated vigorously with your admin
istration and has observed very well
the agreement made with the Presi-
dent, including particularly the part
covering section IA.
I'VE should like to point out some
what specifically that the packing
industry in all its divisions has given
you unusual cooperation. It's index
of employment and pay rolls, as you
know, has been consistently and re-
markably maintained and advanced.
Figures just issued by the Bureau
Of Labor Statistics show an employ
ment index for this industry of more
than Is per cent above the average
index Of employment for all manufac-
turing industries and more than 20
per cent above the index of employ
ment in the packing industry year
earlier"

laid. the move Of that organization
from its old home at Eighteenth and
Pennsylvania avenue Is being delayed
indefinitely, Harold A. Candland,
chief OF the Division Of Government

ice. Interior Department. said today.
The move Of the Home Owners Loan
Corporation into the 81 ,000, 900 Acacia

asserted.
After some perplexity because the
corporation is an independent group,
the Interior Department has decided
that it has jurisdiction over the
Acacia Building and is placing Fed
ersI Building guards in 1t and will
operate and maintain the structure.
Starts From Mather.
The move tomorrow will start from
the Mather at Ninth and O streets
and Is expected to consume three or
four days.
Several new corporations have
grown up under the new deal and for
time the Interior Department was
puzzled on how to handle leases and
outright purchases OF buildings, but
Mr.. Candland explained today that
the decision is that these groups are
agents for the functioning of the
Government itself. The Acacia Build
ing Is the first case involving the pur-
chase Of an entire building by one
Of the corporations to come before
the department.
The Offices in the new Government
Auditorium Building-which adioinS
the new Interstate Commerce Build
ing on Constitution avenue, and into
which some units Of the Interstate

layed, officials said.
New Occupants Seen.
When the old Interstate Commerce
Commission Building is vacated, the
Federal Trade Commission and the
new Securities and Exchange Com
mission will occupy it.
Today, said Mr.. Candland, the Gov
eminent Is finishing up moving out

CLAIM UNSUPPORTED.
Officials Here FAN to Sustain United
States Increase Assertion.


Official records here fail to support
yesterdays assertion by Stanley Bald
win in the House of Commons that
military air services of the United
States have been increased In the
past four years by the addition Of
240 airplanes.
The records show that at no time
have the Army or Navy air forces
exceeded the maximum strength au-
thorized by Congress in the so-called
five year" programs which we're
adopted in 1926. The Navy attained
its program strength in 1890, accord
ing to the records, and since that
time routine requirements of obsolete
or wrecked airplanes has not increased
the total above the authorized
strength of 1000 airplanes. The pres
ent Army strength is about 1,475
airplanes of all types, including 100
allotted to the National Guard and
several hundred of training types.
Both services are planning in
creased al ,,iane building activities In
the imme late future. The Army Is
expected 20 add 400 planes to its
strength during the present fiscal
year, which ends next June 30. This
total includes 81 bombardment planes
already purchased from a $500, ,00O
public works allotment and now being
delivered, and 80 attack planes, to be
paid for from P. w. A. funds. An ap-
preparation of $11,000.0 900 will finance
purchase of the remainder of the 4oC
planes, Of various types. These 4oC
airplanes, however, will serve merely
as requirements for obsolete types
and will not increase the authorized
strength.
Building Of the Army Air Corps
strength up to a total Of 2,300 air
planes was recommended by the spe-
cial board headed by former Secre-
tary of War Newton D. Baker, which
was created by Secretary Of War Dern
to study the situation Of the All
Corps.

As result Of recognizing the COM

covery Administration, approximately
90 clerks and Stenographers have been

1t became known. however, when
Col. Lynch yesterday ordered. In an
once memorandum. that no new en-
ployes be added to the rolls, and that
all vacancies be filled by transfers
within N r. A.
Some time ago such a move was
forecast by Gen. Johnson, who said
the personnel would have TO be re-
duced when codihcation Of industry
was completed and N. r. A. began
the administrative phases Of its work.
He said at the time. however, that
there was no immediate plan for
wholesale reductions

Death Stalks the Highway

Since January first 81 people have been killed in
Montana In highway accidents. Practically all OF them
could have been prevented. What a price to pay for
careles5ness and responsibility
The fact is as the record proves. We are more
careless of the lives and property of others In this year
1894 than we were in the same corresponding elapsed
period OF 1888.
None Of us want to be that. Yet the record speaks
for Itself. There is only one answer. 1t is to be more
careful than ever. Hazards increase as traffic increases.
Various factors enter into the situation There Is
the condition OF the car driven, the fact that much
highway maintenance has Of necessity been abandoned,
the capacity and physical condition Of the driver as to
eyesight and alertness in applying controls.
It Is a grave responsibility to drive an automobile.
Every driver considers himself safe. Every driver should
check up on himself and his car to establish the fact
beyond doubt
And the drunken and irresponsible driver should
have no more leniency from courts or juries.
Montana must cut Its toll OF motor car fatalities
The fact that 1t is increasing at a time when less than
ths average number OF cars are are on the streets and
highways il alarming evidence Of a condition that can.
not be tolerated.
