Army and Navy Leaders,
Seeing Their Defeat, Force
Premier To Dissolve Par
Lament Within Few Hours

Term

Tokyo, March 81 (AP)-The Japa-
nese army, charging leaders of major
political parties with obstructing vital
laws for national defense, forced the
dissolution of Parliament today and
threw the empire into new political
crisis.
The dissolution was ordered by EN-
peror Hirchito on the advice of Pre-
mier Hayashi and made a general cleo
ton, in which charged army domino
ton of the government was expected
to be made an issue mandatory within
thirty days.
The new crisis arose suddenly with
the stormy 10th session of the Diet
due for only a few more hours of
normal life.
Realizing there was no chance of
pushing through the bills they con-
sidered vital for national defense, the
army leaders, in cooperation with the
navy, brought pressure to bear on the
premier to advise the emperor to or
der the dissolution affecting the low
err house.
The government announced the new
election would be called April 80 to
choose 466 members for a new House

HAWANANS DEMAND
STATEHOOD STATUS
Contend They Are Discrim-

By CHARLES p. STEWRT
CeAntraI Press COlumnist

Washington, March 31-The terri
tory of Hawaii is almost angry
enough to secede.
It's status, as an integral part Of
Uncle Sans domain, according to-
Delegate Samuel Wilder King, it's on
ly spokesman in Congress, is that of
a step-child of the most neglected and
abused sort.
Because it is off-shore, Delegate
King complains mainland Americans
cannot seem to get it through their
heads that Hawaiians are as Amer
lean as New Workers or Texans or
continental Americans anywhere else.
They are regarded as foreigners, King
says, and are Disseminated against
accordingly.
WHY THEY PROTEST
What especially infuriates the
Hawaiian folk just now is a pending
sample of legislation to establish a
permanent quota plan to control the
amount of sugar which, from various
sources, can be sold in the United
States.
AS King tells the story, the bill
grants an allowance to the beet sugar
that they possibly can attain.
The can producing states of Louisi-
ana and Florida also are adequately
provided for.
All other sugar producers are class
ed as foreigners and their respective
quotas are correspondingly reduced,
to keep them out of competition with
American production.
For example, Cuba is relatively Ii
