UNITED THROUGH WHISPERS

"What has come over Nogales? Did someone
down there give those guys a shot in the arm?"
former Nogaan now residing in Tucson ask
ed the editor Of The International the above question
shortly after the Nogales motorcade Of about 100 per-
sons publczinz Frontier Nights, arrived in the Old
Pueblo Sunday $40 mile trip.
Il used to live down there and | never realized
before that a group of Nogalians, such as on this
trip could be gotten together and go out boost
ing tour, the former Nogalian added.
Now that gentleman had reason to feel that way.
He lived here for many years when petty jeaousies
and factiona feeling held back the border metropolis
Things are changing in Nogales. They began
changing after Director Clyde Zerby Of From
tier Nights reached here few weeks ago. It was
whiskers that brought about the change.
The first thing Zerby did was to draw up
get thrown out his ear if he asked this fellow and
that fellow to sign up. They were mistaken. Zerby
didn't get a single rundown.
The whisker idea quickly became infectious and
today who never even had few hairs on their
lips before have an "adornment" covering their
tire face. The whiskerinos enjoying it and
their friends.
There is every indication that the celebration op-
ening Wednesday will be financial success. We hope
it WILL but suppose it isn't Staging the show will not
have been in vain for the work and expense have
brought Nogaes out of the dumps, former warning
factions have gotten together have forgotten their
differences, and all right are popped up and CO.
operating to put Frontier Nights over with bang.
The proper community spirit prevails here at pre-
sent and let's all keep that spirit alive after the cele
bration put our shoulders to the wheel and build
city that can double in population within the next
ten years. 1T CAN BE DONE We have the climate,
the scenery we're the gateway to the great west coast
of Mexico, have rich mining district fine set

the dumps and let's that don't slide back into

MOSCOW, Feb. 81. Official
Moscow interpreted the japanese

The revolt is significant of the

suits of the election instigated the
plotters to immediate armed action.

JAPANESE ARMY
AND NAVY SEEK
SUPREME POWER
u. S. Officials Silent as
They Continue Study
of Situation.
FULL RESULTS AWAITED
Diplomats Say Extremists
Are Urging War With
America Now.
BY JOSEPH III. BAIRD
United Press STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Feb. 81
The State Department, read
ing avidly both official and
press reports from Tokyo, still
was unable today to judge
the effects on Japanese-Amer-
lean relations of the army's
revolution against civilian
government.
Reports to the State Department
told merely of the dramatic events
in Tokyo. but MADE no effort to in
terpret the situation.
Interest here centered on whether
the coup against Japan's moderate"
ministers was engineered by the
War Department or was merely the
action of small, independent
group.
U. S. vitality Interested
II the former, diplomats rea-
soned, there may be further re-
volt against the government in
Tokyo. If the latter, yesterdays as
sassinations may prove closed
chapter.
The State Department is vitality
interested in whether the Japanese
government is dominated by the
army or by liberal civilians because
the complexion of the government
in Tokyo may have a decisive bear
ing on the question of peace or war
between America and Japan.
According to diplomats, small
group in japanese army and navy
circles insist that war between the
two countries is inevitable and that
Japan should fight now before the
United States Navy becomes strong
er. That, it is readily admitted, is
an extremist point of view.
Fear War With Russia
Yet it would find reader accept
ance in a government dominated by
the army than in a regime of mod
crates. On the other hand, japanese
liberals appear ready to work out
the problems existing between
Washington and Tokyo through
diplomatic channels.
Also, control of the japanese gov
eminent by the army, it is believed
here, might precipitate a war be-
tween Japan and Russia. With
world politics as closely knitted as
they are today. the State Depart
ment is apprehensive about
breach of peace anywhere in the
world.

FORT LEAVENWORTH, Kas.,
Feb. 27.-Huge foes piled up in the
ice-gorged Missouri River in this vi
cinity today, threatening inundation
to Kickapoo Island, the Arny's air
base, and rich farming land on the
Missouri side of the river.
Already the ice damned river had
spread over lowlands in the Atchi-
son vicinity and forced dozen
families to flee with their possess
sions to higher ground. BY mid
morning, however, the gorge had
broken at Atchison and the flood
waters receded. Five families re-
turned to their homes.
So acute was the new threat in
this area that Army authorities con-
sidered sending bombing planes over
the stream to blast the ice jam.
