ing of resentment is arising. Many
Americans will now refuse to use an
article stamped, "Made in Japan. !"
All that is needed to create an effec-
tive boycott in this country is an or
ganized propaganda.
Here is weapon which, we believe,
might be effectively used in the cause
Of peace. American peace societies
that concern themselves over ROTC
training in colleges and urge disarm-
ament in our nation in the face of
warlike world might serve the cause
of peace much more effectively if they
would direct some attention to the job
of mastering public opinion against
the practices of aggressor nations
which cause war. An organized prop
uganda in America against everything
made in Japan as protest against
the barbar0us and inhuman tactics en-
ployed by Nipponese fighters might
quickly bring that aggressive and
dangerous little nation to its senses.
Japan needs export markets in or
der to take of its enormous population
of industrial workers. A serious de-
preston in Japanese industry would
quickly create such unrest in Japan
that the military classes would lose
prestige and following among their
own people.
Let the peace societies of our coun-
try and the entire world use the weap-
on they have at hand, an aroused
public opinion directed in protest
against barbarism more savage than
anything known since the time OF
Genghis Kahn. This might prove te
dangerous and aggressive nations that
unprovoked and savage warfare does
not pay.

IN THE CAUSE OF PEACE

It is less than a century since Com
modore Perry opened Japan to the
Western world. For centuries it was
isolated island kingdom, medieval in
it's social and economic structure,
quaint, picturesque, and backward.
But during the latter part of the
nineteenth century Japan began to
emulate the development of the rest
of the world. 1t was always said of
the japanese that they are great i'm
itators. This ability to adopt the dis
coveries and industrial methods of adj
vanced nations quickly placed Japan
among the worlds great powers. It
is all an amazing national accomplish
nent. Today japanese goods are sold
on almost every counter in the entire
world Her industrial machinery is
efficient, her business policies are ef-
tective.
But astute as the Japanese are,
they have failed to realize the impor-
lance of public opinion and world
wide good will. The barbarous practic-
es pursued by the japanese military
ElisHA$ors in China are already pro-
dncina an effect. In England nation
wide movement is under way to boy
colt Japanese goods as a protest
against the indiscdminate slaughter of
women and children in the war

visor of public accounts; and when the heirs went to war against Noe, Long ran for leutenant- governor. Noe was defeated for the goVer- norship by Richard Webster Leche, and Long became lieutenant- gov ernor; 1t Is now conceded, inci- dentally, that he will be the Long machines next candidate for gov ernor.
 Dr. vldrlne Resigns With that election, the Long ring was in full control. 1mme. diately, strongely enough, some of the men who had been closest to Huey Long began to be eased out.
 One of them was Dr. Arthur A.. Vidrine, noted Louisiana surgeon, who was rushed to Baton Rouge from New Orleans to operate on Senator Long after the assaSsina- ton. pr. Vierine had been one of Huey'S first appointees, as super intendent of Charity hospital, New Orleans; he was also dean of the S3,000,000 Louisiana State University medical center. The heirs gently nlaneuvered him out of both of these lucrative jobs, sugar coating the moves as "resig- nations"
 Another to go was Alfred D. DanSiger, New Orleans attorney who took 1t on the chin" for HueY Long In many Q legal rough house and who had been rewarded with the post of executive coun- Sellor to the mayor Of New Or leans. In short time he, too, vanished from the picture,
 Many other similar cases fol- lowed. And the upshot was that . small group emerged In complete control of the state of Louisiana and of New Orleans, Dixie's great est city.
 Orchids and Champagne
 Huey Long had Ghrottled New orleans-which had rebelled against him-by the simple expedient of cutting of It's income. After all city employees went on party pay or no pay ct oil for months, the New Or leans ring"-as Huey called tho poll ticians who had controlled the city surrendered meekly. Mayor T. Sem- mes Walmsley, titular head of the ring" who was now general without an army, clung to his job for Q while, but finally resigned with two years of his term still to be served.
 Then came an extraordinary po- litical maneuVer by which Robert Sidney MaeStri, rich New Orleans realtor and one of Huey's earliest financial packers, was named mayor of New orleans.
 The mayors term of office was heightened from four to six years, and the Huey Long laws shutting off New Orleans income were im- mediately repealed. Mayor Maestri had the funds to inaugurate a campaign of civic Improvements, and not long ago the first anni- vcrsary of his arrival In office was celebrated with orchids and cham pagne.
 Build New Homes
 Huey Longs heirs were riding high, wide ana handsome now, Some of them began building luxurious country homes on broad estates newly acquired in St. Tam many parish, just across Lake Ponchartrain from New Orleans.
 Among them was Gov. Richard Webster Leche, now the openly an- nounced publisher of the Hammond Progress, 6 weekly newspaper that

once was Huey's Louisiana Progress and was later his American Prog ress. This paper Is published ct Hammond, In Tang!pahoa parish, in Q magnificent plant with costly presses and the most modern equip. ment.
 Another who built c fine new home was Abraham Lazard Shu- shan, former president of the New Orleans Levee Board, whose trial and acqulttal on an indictment charging income tax fraud and eva sion was ono of the sensations of the state immediately following Huey's death,
 Lesser Lights Not So Joyous
 Seymour Weiss, the Shadowy and somewhat enigmatic "all cash, no records" unofiicial treasurer of the machine in Huey's lifetime, and the man who told e United States Sen- ate committee none of your busi- ness" when questioned about his private finances-Seymour Weiss is not only tho head of the company owning the Roosevelt Hotel, in New Orleans; he also owns the Hotel New orleans, on Canal street, and with Ralph Hitz, head of c national hotel management chain, recently bought the Hotel Montclair In New York City.
 So in the Inner circle of the ma chine which Senator Long left be- hind because he couldn't take 1t with him, everybody Is happy. The less- CT lights, however, are not SO joy- ouS.
 The old familiar "gouge' hits every pay check that Is issued to Q minor jobholder in tho machine, The lowest known assessment IS per cent, which is collected from ordinary $2-a-day laborers on the state roads, Nobody knows what the rate is for those who hold the high" er-paying state and city Jobs; but all who hold such jobs pay 1t, call- ing 1t "Job insurance"
 Nor, outside of the inner circle, docs anyone know where the mon- ey goes. It Is collected officially, and then 1t vanisheS, as far as the rank and file are concerned. On top of that, every jobholder Is re- quired to buy at least five annual subscriptions to Governor Lech's wekely paper, the above-mentioned Hammond Progress The jobholder may go out and sell those subscrip- tions If he wants to, and Is able to- but If he can't or won't he must pay for them himself. Thus Governor Leche's paper has @ guaranteed cir- culation as long as the machine continues to control the state.
 Second Louisiana Purchase"
 The golden flood still pours in from Washington. New Orleans is getting a new $l2,000,000 Charity Hospital from the WPA. More than $400,O00 of New Deal money has been spent on block of apartments around historic Jackson Square-a building which originally cost $780, 900. Members of Congress have spoken caustically, on the floor of Congress, about "the second Louisi- ana purchase"
 The political atmosphere in Lou isiana has changed since Huey's death. The heirs no longer talk about Huey's oft-proclaimed "prin- ciples." And they are far smoother and suaver than Huey ever was. His political creed was given 'em the
