the Japanese delegation, has not
decided when to leave London.
The japanese have tea appoint
ment with the Americans for
Monday.
One of the purposes Of this
afternoons session was to draft
a reply to Admiral Nagano's with.
drawal announcement. This was
expected to be a joint statement
expressing views Of the remaining
conferees.
Treaty naval rations were
finally buried in statements by
Admiral Nagano and notes de-

and Anthony Eden, official chair.
man, by the Japanese last night,
after the Nipponese thesis OF
equality was rejected.
Cannot Agree, Says MaganO
Admiral Magano set forth for
the last time Japan'S demand for
a top limit of total naval tonnages
common to all nations, elimina'
ton or limitation by type and
tonnage of what Japan considers
offensive" vessels - big battle.
ships and cruisers and aircraft
carriers.
Admiral Magano said:
1--WE cannot agree to the pro-
pOsals submitted by the other
delegations, as they do not meet
with our fundamental thesis
Of hquidating our position
Of inferiority under existing
treaties and Of providing for
minimum forces required for
the safety of national defense.
Notwithstanding our with
drawal, we desire to declare
most emphatically that, far
from entertaining the slightest
wish to embark upon an arma-
ment race, we are firmly de-
termined as heretofore to pro-
mote the cause Of world peace.
1.-THE ALLEGATION of an in
ferior ratio, so detrimental to
our national prestige, is bound
to produce serious repercus-
sions in our country, and be
the source Of profound diScOn'
tent among our people.
REJECTED BY DAVIS
Norman H. Davis rejected the
japanese demands for the
United States, differing with
Japan's definition of offensive
craft, arguing that the present
treaties provide a state Of mon
menace" and that the japanese
plan asks equality without tax
ing into account the varying
needs of the countries concerned"
for security.
Viscount Monsell, who is Brit
ish first lord of the admiralty,
gave the chief arguments against
the japanese plan.
Naval strength, he said, "can'
not be measured solely in terms
of the number of fighting ships,
but is dependent on such factors
as remoteness of bases and
sources of supply and the vulner-
ability of long communications"

LONDON, Jan. 16 >I.N.S0.
AbySsinian forces have recaptured
the holy city of Aksum, following
a fierce battle, according to un-
official reports at Adds Ababa
cabled by Central News today.
Aksum has been in italian hands
since the initial drive in Septem-
Der, but recently large Ethiopian
forces have been filtering through
the mountains below the town.
ROME, Jan. Is UN.S0.-Per.
sistent rumors were heard in
Rome today that Marshal Pietro
Badoglio, now commander Of the
Italian expeditionary forces, has
asked to be relieved because Of
the strain on his health in the
high attitudes of Eritrea.
The Italian Government, how.
ever, denied that he is being re-
called.
The reports suggested Gen.
Rodolfo GRAHAM, whose activities
on the southern Ethiopian front
have been increasing, and who is
reputed to be Italy'S best colonial
general, or Gen. Federico Bats
trocci, under secretary for war,
might be made Badoglio'S sue
ceSSor.

a Qualification of the attitude of the
administrative officials.
Specifically, Grady was asked to
answer the question of whether
there was any provision for bi-parti-
san representation on the commit
tee formulating the reciprocal agree
mentS
Grady replied that there was no
question of party afiliation in the
selection Of members of the inter-
departmental committee formulating
the policy.
Each was selected, he said, be-
cause Of his qualifications as an ex-
pert.
He was confident, Grady said, that
no department head or President
would debase this custom of select
ing career men for their fitness by
substituting party aff1liation as a
qualification for appointment.
The League voted to recommend
to the major political parties that

for merit as embodied in the civil
service.
In submitting the proposed policy,
Mrs. George Gellhorn, st. Louis,
chairman of the committee drafting
the policy, and a leader for many
years in the movement to obtain
proportional representation voting
for st. Louis, declared:
This is the time for the electorate
to speak, and for the politicians to
hear"
Ask Expansion of Civil Service
The Leagues plan of action was
incorporated in f1ve-point pro-
gram. Significant among the points
was the ALLEGATION of $500 of League
funds for any special expenditures
necessitated by the campaign.
The League also adopted four adj
ditional items to be emphasized in
its work during the ensuing two
years:
l. Apportionment of public funds
for adequate and scientific public
education.
2. Expansion of school districts
to lower administrative costs and
raise standards of efficiency.
8. Old age pensions, unemploy-
ment insurance, and child-help
measures.
4. Downward revision of tariffs by
reciprocal trade agreements.
Tariff Plank Debated
The first three measures were ap-
proved with a minimum of debate,
but arguments arose on the floor
when the fourth was proposed and
Mrs. Robert A. Taft, Cincinnati,
nominee for treasurer of the League,
called for expressions of opinion.
AS delegates complied with Mrs.
Taft's suggestion it became appar-
ent that large bloc was apprehen-
sive that any tampering with the
tariff might become involved with
partisan politics.
Henry F. Grady, chief of the di-
vision of trade agreements in the
Department of State, a guest at the
session following his address before
the convention, was called upon for

MAIN STREETS
PARKING PROBLEM.

Any motorist who has ever waited,
however patiently or impatiently. for a
double parked fellow driver to cease
blocking his exit, or has been one of a
string of irate humanity enclosed i'm au-
tOmobiles behind another or the same
double parking ilk while Main street
traffic was thick, will sound a fervent
Amen to the edict of the city council
that traffic regulations must be enforced
on Ell Centres principal thoroughfare.
Another loud hurrah should go up from
Main street merchants.
The fault seems to be that Ell Centre
has grown too rapidly. Too many of its
residents are used to the days when
parking was not much of a problem,
and it didn't make much difference
whether an automobile remained in a
parking place for two hours or all day.
There were other parking places. Lax
ity in one branch of motoring led to
laxity in another, and it became too easy
to double park for just minute. The
result does not fit in with today's con-
gested traffic conditions.
Who is to blame? You and me and
our neighbors. We've never had an acct
dent. We're careful drivers We don't
get tickets. But it does not seem to
amount to much when we just stop in
the street for a minute to run into the
the store. Surely, there's nothing wrong
with that? But there is. Also there is
something wrong when we park our
machines on Main street for all day. We
should get tickets-and we probably
will, now that the order has gone out.
It's up to every motorist to see that
parking regulations are observed. It's up
to the merchants to see that they and
their employees find some place other
than Main street to leave their motor
cars during the business day. 1t is to the
interest of every motorist, and to the
interest of the merchants and their en-
ployes, that an orderly, continual flow
of traffic be allowed on Main street.

ANOTHER STATE
BOARD RECOMMENDED.

A central authority to control the
entire liquor industry in California has
been recommended to a joint state as
sembly and senate Investigating COM
mittee conducting hearings at Los An
geles. The witness, City Attorney Archer
S. Bowden of San Jose, would remove
liquor control from the hands of the
state board of equalization, and place
it in the hands of another board of
commission, similar to the state railroad
commission.
The merits and drawbacks of the
plan, for the purpose of this discussion,
will not be touched upon. There may
be reason for questioning the practice
of placing liquor control in the hands.
of basically tax controlling body. The
principal objection to the new plan is
that it would make CALIFORNIA; complex
system of boards and bureaus even more
complex. It would add just one more
board to the already overburdened list
If California is to balance its budget
and such a procedure most certainly
is necessary-it must simplify govern
ment, not complicate it. 1t must merge
its boards and commissions where duties
overlap not create new ones. In short,
it must reduce expenses, not increase
them
