ODonnell greeted the work of
the I. L. D. and the Communist
Party for their organizing of the
mass movement that forced the Of
ficials to release him. He said, MY
first thought on leaving the Jail is
a deep sense of gratitude to the
many workers and farmers organi-
cations that carried on the fight
for my release and helped with
money. I want to thank the I. L.
D. of which I was section organizer
when arrested for conducting the

Japan Cites
Imperialist
Aims of US

TOKYO, Dec. Charging Amer
lean imperialism with establish
ing an overwhelmingly superior navy
both in the Atlantic and the Pacific
for the subjugation of the world"
a Foreign Office spokesman today
expressed the determination of Jap
anese imperialism to compete with
the unprecedented war program of
the Roosevelt administration. The
Washington Treaty would be term
mated, he declared, on the date set
by the japanese delegation at the
now crumbled naval conference in
London-Dec. 10.
The spokesman answered yester-
days London speech of Norman H,
Davis, when he warned that if the
japanese abrogated the old treaties
so favorable to the industrialists of
the United States, it could only
mean terrific ornaments race.
He declared, I'VE already knew
Mr.. Davis advocated maintenance
of the present treaties, and his
speech contains nothing new. We
are not seeking a naval race. 1t is
Mr.. Vinson (Carl Vinson. the chief
agent in the United States Congress
for the vast war schedule of Amer
lean industrialists) who declares the
United States will build five ships
to Japan's three"
LONDON, Dec. Tn analyzing
Norman Davis speech, Vice Admiral
Isoroku Yamamoto declared that be-
hind Japan's desire for the revision
of the Washington Treaty was not
only the attempt to retain control
over Manchuria but to prepare for
war against the Soviet Union and
for attack against the Soviets Of
China.
IT do not consider" Admiral YAM
smoto said, that Manchukuo was
the immediate reason for Japan's
demand for revision of the treaties.
However, as sponsor % for Man
chukuo, we feel the responsibility
for protecting Manchukuo from pcs
sible Russian and Chinese encroach-
Iments."

NEW YORK, March 9.-stocks
were unable to move far in either di-
rection today. Metals and a number
of specialties were firm, but scattered
selling occurred in aircrafts and some
industrials. Irregularity prevailed

or so higher. American Telephone

Canadian Pacific Rises.
Shares of CanaGian Pacific drew a
sizable following with gain of more

lively, but virtually unchanged. United

program would not be forced on those
who could not afford it. opinion was
mixed as to near-future price trends.
Some market commentators con-
tinued to point out that various blue

counted much of the bright economic
news that is now appearing and that
quotations, in several instances. seem
to be out of lipe with earnings. both
present and potential.
