BIuege Safe at Short.

60 FEEBLE did Larry become at the
plate that finally he had to ster
aside for a veteran who had beer
sbenched since the beginning of last
season to make room for a recruit
third baSeman They dragged Bluegt
out of virtual retirement to take ovel
Lary's job, ard as shortstop anc
confirmed sideliner.
It is not likely that Strange will
do more than sit in at the Washing
ton games the way Bluege is carrying
on these days. Although a corkine
fielder ever since he came up to the
Browns at the outset of the last cam
paign. Alan still lacks the proficiency
afield that marks Ossie as one of the
best defensive shortstops in the busi-
ness. And for his 48 games with the
Browns this season Strange shows a
batting mark of .223. That is 10
points less than he hit last year.
There is no good reason to believe
that Strange. hitting as he has, will
supplant Bluege, who at last record
ing was batting .279. Not in the near
future, anyway.
Harris has cutie a liking for the
lad brought ever from the Browns,
however. He entertains a high re-
gard for the fielding ability Alan has
revealed in short term as a big
Lacquer. Bucky realizes Strange,s
shortcomings as a batter, but he has
observed at times that Alan should
be more frequent hitter.
Strange Was Marvel on Coast.
THIS new National, who bats as well
- as throws from the right side,
certainly was impressive in attack in
1888, his last year in the minors
With the Hollywood club that season
Strange batttd 1924, driving in 81
runs and scoring SO. He flelded $50.
These brilliant efforts won him a
spot on the Pacific Coast Leagues
au-star team and brought him to
the attention OF big league scouts.
Base ball is not the only athletic
pastime that has interested the born
and-bred Philadelphian. Strange has
played some soccer and took a turn
at foot ball in his former home town.
He now makes his residence in Los
Angeles. Alan is not so tall-he is S
feet 9-but he weighs above 100.
And he can make those feet of his
move with speed.
The swap of Larry for Strange is
the third transaction since the close
of last season between the Washing
ton and st. Louis clubs, barterers with
one another for years. Last Winter
the Nationals turned over to the
Browns $4,000 and Catcher Luke
Sewell for Pitcher Irving Hadley.
Last month they announced the pur-
chase Of Pitcher Newsom for $4,000.
Last Chance for Larry.
TT LOOKS as if the berth with the
Browns will afford Larry his last
chance to remain in major league base
ball. Widely heralded as a brilliant
player when brought up from Oakland
of the Coast League to the Yankees,
in 1929, Lyn enjoyed three fourishing
seasons. He skidded in 1882 then
occupied the bench the greater part of
a campaign and last year was sold
to the Red Sox. Although he fielded
well, he failed to hit for the Boston
club.
At the Washington camp this year
Eary was not particularly impressive in
his work and before the season opened
was censured by Manager Harris for
disregard of training rules. Lyn then
buckled to his task seriously, but never
succeeded in making himself espe-
ciaIly helpful to his club.

CAPITAL PLEASES
JAPANESE PARTY
Good Will Business Group
on Good will Sales Tour
OF World.

Ten smiling little Japanese sour
ried around Washington today on
their mission as good will representa-
tives of their nations business men.
Although the cherry blossoms are
not in bloom, the party's eight men
and two women felt at home.
THE heat" remarked Otoichi Kin
oshits, leader of the group, lis just
like in Japan"
He said 1t again in Japanese for
Mrs. Kaoru Mona and Mrs. Suzuko
Iwamoto, who speak no English. The
grinning ladies, cool in their fiowered
kimonos, tapped their fans and nod
ded assent.
The kimono," explained Mr.. Kin
oshita, lis ventilation itself"
Beer Investigated"
The men Of the party were some
what dismayed because the custom
of their American hosts doesn't
reconcile change from business
suits to kimonoS when the days
work is done. But they attacked
this problem by converging on the
Washington Hotel bar and investigat-
ing the cooling qualities Of beer.
The group comprises the sixth an
nual Nippon business mems party
and its members are here on their
way around the world. Some had
never been in the Western Hemisphere
before. They left Japan July 18,
landed In Seattle and toured across
the United States and part Of Canada
in airplanes and air-cooled trains, the
latter q novelty. They arrived here
yesterday and expected to confer with
Secretary of State Hull and Secretary
Of Commerce Roper as well as visit
the Japanese Embassy. They leave
for Philadelphia today and will be
back in Japan October 20.
Naval races, Manchuria and Vanity
Fair notwithstanding. most Japanese
never doubt that the relationships
between our two countries will always
be peaceful" Mr.. Kinoshita, the
groups spokesman, said.
Nine hundred and ninety-nine out
Evening star., 1935-08-15

OF q thousand never conceive Of q
war with you at any time" he added.
Mr.. Kinoshita said Japanese busi-
ness men were actively opposed to the
present efforts of the militarist ele-
ment to increase and continue huge
budgets for armaments, although they
condone the Manchurian episode Is
having been forced upon u.s.
The Vanity Fair cartoon of Emperor
Hirohito drawing a cart bearing the
scroll of the Nobel Peace Prize, which
precipitated diplomatic exchanges, was
an unfortunate occasion" and pro-
voked much i'll will among Japanese
unqualified 20 understand that this
Government has no control over the
free press, Mr.. Kinoshita told his in
terviewer.
AN artist with culture and good
taste would have chosen q better sub
ject," he said. mo Catholic nation
would make a joke on the Pope-it's
the same thing. II they had wanted
to cartoon the Japanese premier, that
would have been all right"
Travel as Tutor.
Mr.. Kinoshita talked for some time
on the theme, Travel Teaches Every
thing" He said many Japanese who
once regarded Americans as arrogant"
had discarded this view after visiting
the United States and Learning 10
appreciate your frankness and kind
ness"
As for business In Japan, the stock
brokers, merchants and manufacturers
represented in the group regard it as
pretty good" Not as good, perhaps,
as when Mr.. Kinoshita was q young
newspaper man covering the Washing
ton Naval Conference for q japanese
paper in San Francisco, but nearly
back to normalcy" The only class
which isn't experiencing the returning
prosperity is the farmers. Mr.. Kinoshita
said. He explained that, contrary to
the current United States practice, the
japanese national policy was to keep
commodity prices reasonably low, so
that purchasing power might be
strong.
The group hopes to attract American
buyers to take more japanese goods
so that the present Ulfavorable bal
ance of Japanese trade with the United
States will be corrected.

been submitted upon which any reve-
nue. measure may appropriately be
based.
"(d) There Is a demand for speed
yet no revenues conceivably can re-
suit during the calendar year 1886
nor in appreciable amounts before the
fiscal year 1888.
"(2) hTe proposed bill violates
every sound principle of taxation.
"t3 The majority party, both in
the House and as represented by the
Senate Finance Committee, evidence
an utter disregard for obvious in
equities and patent absurdities."
The report then criticized separate
provisions of the pending act, start
ing with the proposed high rates on
surtaxes. In this connection, the re-
port says, it is probable that Presi-
dent Roosevelt hopes that his pro-
posed taxes, in 1886 and subsequent
years, will hit few of them (the
very rich) who may have dared incur
his personal diSpleasure"
The graduated tax on corporation
incomes was opposed on five grounds,
among them that it disregards abil-
ity to pay and discriminates against
the small investor in a large cor
poration as opposed to the large in
vestor in a small corporation.
English Law Is Cited.
Increases in the capital stock and
excess profits taxes were opposed as
unfair and in connection with the
latter 1t was recommended that per-
mission be given to corporations TO
carry forward their losses over a
two-year period. England allows such
practice over a six-year period, 1t
was pointed out.
No justification exists for multiple
taxation" such as is imposed by
levy on intercompany dividends. the
report says, other than the expressed
wish of the President.
In his castigation of the emasure
the Michigan Republican called upon
all his well known ability to apply
colorful phraseology as he termed the
pending bill "a tin-foil measure which
snipes inconclusively at wealth" and
which finally will be drafted in q con-
ference between House and Senate, "a
conference which either will deadlock
over incompatible views or which will
melt under the August sun into an
agreement born of dictation, despera-
ton and exhaustion"
Senator Copeland next took I'D the
cause to charge there IS no Senator
in this chamber who can stand on
his feet and say that this is a we'll
worked out, well considered and wise
bill"
In his attack, Senator Hasting de-
clared:
This particular bill was conceived
in political intrigue. 1t is a cross be-
tween a spendthrift and a social revo-
lutionist. 1t has for its principal
object the presidential election of
1885. 1t intends to drive out the
Democratic party whatever Is left of
the wealthy class. 1t is bid for the
votes Of those who have but little. 1t
makes a pretense of meeting the de-
mands Of those who believe the saliva
ton of the country is in the Share
the wealth proposal. 1t will not raise
sufficient money to pay the deficit for
20 days.
vii Not Delay i'll.
II do not propose to try to delay
the passage of the pending DILL. I do
not propose to try to amend it. Iwant |.

velt accomplishments. ! want those
who agree with him to put their stamp
of approval upon it. If Mr.. Roosevelt
thinks he has made political capital
for himself and his party, let him
make the most of it."
Senator Steiwer, in conclusion, de-
clared:
The tax bill, without definite plan,
brings burdens without benefit. 1t is
a sort of expression of futility without
any compensating net gain to our
people. There is nothing at all before
us at this moment save a frenzied
effort to dispose of q poorly drawn
piece of legislation"

oy the Associated Press.
A congressional investigation Of the
effects Of moving pictures on public
morals, salaries paid film executives
and actors and possible monopolies in
the industry was proposed yesterday
by Representative Sirovich, Democrat,
Of New York.
He introduced resolution propos-
ing that the House create seven-man
committee to make the inquiry.
The resolution recited allegations of
illegal control, restraint Of trade, di
version of assets, fraudulent issuance
Of securities and harmful speculation
In securities and litigation inaugu-
rated to place control of many COM
panies in banking houses and affili-
ates.
The resolution said that many
church and religious organizations are
making serious charges of immortality
and lewdness in moving pictures, to-
gether with advertisement and glorifi-
cation of crime, immortality and GRIM
inals to the detriment of public
morals"
1T seems" the measure said, "es-
sential for protection Of the public
welfare that there be made a thor
ough investigation of financial actions
and affairs of persons and companies
engaged in all branches of the in

1t proposed, in addition, that it
would be we'll to go into compensa-
tons paid officials, players, writer's,
operators and others within and out
side the industry with view to cor
rection Of any and all alleged abuses
