RISE OF JAPANESE DICTATORSHIP

The recent announcement from Tokyo of the poli- hcal cutting off of heads in the Japanese cabinet and elevating into commanding position more srenu-
 military leaders foreels another foreeful dictator ship the face of the earth Japan generally is ognized military controlled nation but this latest gives indication that it is going to be virtually the status that prevails Germany Italy and some of the other countries.
 In other words the Japanese military is going to leave stone untlrned conquer China. It recog- nizes that the situation it likes to refer to the China incident" is a fnll-fedged war which will stretch Japanese resources the limit to win It is barely possible that they will stretch sufficiently In that the Japan military is going to find itself in 8 very unhappy position and the people of Japan in one, unless in the meantime they have turned their lords bringing chaos
 As Eliot Janeway, oriental authority, points out, the strain of Japans internal economy has all along been excused on the grounds that sovereignty over North China would yield vast quantities of ma- terals which Japan always had purchase abroad at great expense Mongoan wool and Chinese cotton, coal and iron the prizes the army offered to Japanese industry for it's cooperation and support But the promised benefits have not materialized Japanese textile interests have been dubious about projects in China which calls for the use of their money especially after witnessing the destruction of their profitable mills the coast
 Thus the military and civilian capital and indus try found themselves at the cross roads Now the for mer has stepped forth boldly to take the entire situation. On how the civilian population and Japa nese ndusalists going to respond to it appears to rest the rise of Japan as a dctatoral power. It may founder into revolution and chaos it may come out of the most vruent powerful Relationships in the modern world

 Airplanes in Alaska gradually becoming equipped with two-way radio. The installation of these ground stations will further the goal that all aircraft is aiming to attain-the of this twoway equipment planes
 As the program is carried forward. it will bring out further aerial development Doubtless upon radio facilities will much of the success of the proposed Seattle-Juneau air mail route One of the barriers which has delayed the establishment of this service was the of ground stations to keep in contact with planes flying the route Already plans under way to most of that barrier and in the mean time the outlook encouraging for the establishment of the service The President has urged upon Congress the setng aside of S200000 for the service to be augu.e ed around July | It may not get started then but every indication points to early service the coastal route

US. Unimpressed
By Reports of
New Nazi Gun

WASHINGTON, Aug. 90. CUP)-
American Ordinance experts and
high ranking army officials were
unimpressed today by reports from
Berlin of the German army's new
big Bertha" mobile gun.
They admitted they had received
no official reports concerning the
new gun which the Nazi army par
AIDED before Admiral Nicholas Hor-
thy regent of Hungary, and the
military attaches of Europe, and
that their opinions were based
upon press reports.
But their virtually unanimous
opinion was that the new gu2 is
an artillery freak, something like
the big Bertha" used to shell
Paris during the World War In
their opinion it probably was de-
signed more for the purpose of i'm
pressing Germany's potential enc
mics than for practical military
usage.
