U. 5. Again Condemns
japanese Bombing
Of Chinese Civilians
Munitions SoIes to
Nippon Have Ceased
Completely
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A new American condemnation of
japanese bombing of Chinese civili-
ans was disclosed yesterday. along
with other indications that the ad-
ministration was steadfastly main
tanning its disapproving attitude to-
ward the invasion of China.
Secretary of State Hull announced
that Ambassador Joseph c. Grew,
at his direction, had made very
earnest representations Thursday at
Toxic against the recent bombing
Of four unfortified Chinese cities.
At the same time, the State De-
partment published export data
showing that American munitions
sales to Japan have ceased COM
pletely since January l. Secretary
Hull appealed last year to manu-
facturers not to sell planes to gov
ernments using them to bomb
civilians.
The dispatch of nearby Ameri-
can destroyer to investigate the
Japanese seizure of the International
Settlement of the south China port
city of Annoy provided still another
indication Of the administration s
attitude.
1000 Killed or Injured.
A dispatch from Consul Karl D.
MacVltty at Annoy said the Japanese
landed $50 troops Immediately after
the first incident of violence there,
which involved Chinese.
Mr.. Hull told his press conference
that Ambassador Grew, on humani-
tartan grounds, made oral represen-
tatlons to the japanese foreign Office
against the bombing of Chuneking,
SwatoW, Mingpo and Foochow. Dis
patches reported 1000 persons were
killed or injured in raids on Chung
king, the Chinese national provisi-
.onal capital.
The United States, Mr.. Hull noted.
has repeatedly condemned the
bombing of defenseless men, women
and children.
Ambassador Crews remonstrances
were the latest of a series since the
undeclared Sino-Japanese war broke
out nearly three years ago. Under
secretary Sumner Welles last June
termed the bombing of civilians
"barbarous."
Munitions Go to China.
The munitions export data for
April showed that for the fourth
successive month not a single per-
nit was issued for shipment of any
war material to Japan. In this
period. permits have been granted
for the export to China of munitions
valued at s429,4 ,464.
The report disclosed the value of
American munitions sold abroad in
April was only $3926,SO5. This con-
trasted with the total value of s37,-
058,309 for the first four months of
the year.
Among the largest buyers, the
Netherlands Indies obtained permits
In April for munitions, mostly air
craft, valued at 1921 ,210, Great Brit
ain for war material costing $780,
o13, and France, S368,593.
Actual shipments during the
month were valued at s6,712,OOS.

Total Of 10 Billion
Appropriations Seen
Al This Session
People Apothetic to
Fiscal Policies, Says
Senator King
BY the Associated Press.


With the congressional economy
drive apparently stalled, advocates
OF reduced spending gloomily es-
timated yesterday that total ap-
preparations by this session of Con-
gress might run far above $9,O0O.-
100000 and possibly come close to
$40, 900 ,OO0, 900.
A total of $6,446.00O 5000 already
has been appropriated or is con-
tanned in various appropriation bills
as they stood yesterday. Still to be
added to that figure is the relief
appropriation for next year-$l 1872
100000 was requested by President
Roosevelt-the regular appropria-
tions for the State, Justice and
Commerce Departments-for which
$95 ,928 900 was requested-miscel-
laneous appropriations of sort
which totaled more than 5000 900, 900
last year and the third deficiency
bill Of the session.
The appropriations already ap-
proved or pending total $3.50 900 900
more than the budget estimates.
The bulk of the excess, $376, 600, 900,
was contained in single measure,
the bill appropriating for the Ag-
riculture Department.
Funds Increased.
The Senate early last week add
ed 1888 900 900 to the bill, AS COM
pared with the sum approved by
the House. Later in the week the
House added $5O,0OO,OOO worth of
rivers and harbors projects to the
budget estimate for the War De-
partment's civil functions. To off,
set part of the excess a number
of bills were somewhat below the
budget figures.
THE people seem to be apathetic
as to the fiscal policies of the Gov
ernment," Senator King. Democrat,
of Utah, the one Senator who spoke
publicly against the increases in the
Agricultural appropriations, said
yesterday. "A few months ago there
was a demand for economy, and
many of us believed that this session
of Congress might materially reduce
Federal appropriations.
This Congress. however, exhibits
no concern over the mounting costs
OF the Federal Government and the
widening gulf between revenues and
appropriations. Before Congress ad-
journs, $4,000, 100000 will have been
appropriated The deficit next year
will be at least $4 ,0O0.0OO.0OO.

Imitation Held Inevita BILE.

Imitation is inevitable with the
unWlse and dangerous policies pur-
sued by the Government. The peo-
pie are largely to blame because they
are making demands for these enor-
nous appropriations, but the history
OF nations proves that continued
deficits bring imitation, and infla-
ton brings bankruptcy, which is fol-
lowed by form of dictatorship. If
this Government is to be preserved,
there must be an aroused public
sentiment"
Senator Minton, Democrat, of In
diana, a leading New Deal supporter,
took different view of the fiscal
situation
II don't see." he said. how we can
make real economies until the busi-
ness situation picks up and big
business now is quite definitely on
sit-down strike. AS long as they
take that attitude the Government
has no alternative except taxing and
spending We will have to increase
taxes somewhat"
AS for the argument that unbal-
anced budgets lead to initiation and
dictatorship, he contended it was
equally arguable that unless busi-
ness picks up. to reduce appropri-
ations and balance the budget would
mean starvation of the people,
revolution and a dictatorship"
Farm Fund May Be Cut.
A possibility remains that the
agricultural appropriation voted by
the Senate will be reduced in con-
ferences this week between agents
of the House and Senate for the
purpose of compromising the differ
ences between the versions approved
by the two Houses.
House economy advocates have
asserted they would seek to cut
something off the $1.218 ,666.572 bill
approved by the Senate. The House
voted $685. 100000
In addition, the $4,000. 900 added
to the War Department civil activi-
ties appropriation. may be subtract
ed from the Presidents estimate of
work-relief needs, under plan
which would make w. P. A. projects
of the rivers and harbors jobs.

FOOD FOR GOOD TEETH
Foods comparatively high in cal
cfum content and therefore desir-
able in the diet for coed teeth:
Milk, Cheese, Peas, String Beans,
Dried Beans, Cabbage, preferably
raw (cole slaw), Lettuce, Carrots,
preferably raw. Plain wheat, To-
matoes or tomato juice, fresh or
canned, Oranges or orange juice,
fresh or canned, Nuts, Peanuts,
Egg Yolk. Beets, Celery, Spinach,
Turnips, preferably raw, Dates, ALI
green lleafy vegetables. cooked or
raw.
incidentally one gets more call
cium (lime) from a glass of milk
than there is In an equal quantity
Of lime water.
Probably quart of milk day
furnishes fifteen grains Of calcium,
nearly or quite sufficient to supply
the daily requirements of the adult;
at least half as much more is nee
essary to supply the greater require
ments (due to growth) Of the young
child.
While q liberal amount and va
riety Of these high calcium foods
should be included In every diet,
one should remember that calcium
Is no more nor less important In
building sound teeth than 1t is in
building straight strong bones,
healthy steady nerves and firm,
resilient muscle.
Foods comparatively high in
phosphorus and desirable in the
diet for good teeth:
The high calcium foods are all
more or less rich in phosphorus
also. but plain wheat deserves
greater emphasis as source of
phosphorus, as well as various
products made from IL. Even re-
fined white -four contains fair
amount Of phosphorus. In reference
to wheat or other cereal In the
child's diet, 1t Is well to remember
the Mellanbys' well established OBJ
servation, that some factor present
In cereals, notably oatmeal, inter-
feres with the utilization of cal
cium in the body, so that additional
rations Of vitamin D mist be pro-
vided to counterbalance this effect
Of "toxamin" when cereals consti-
tute a considerable part Of the diet
--vitan1in D. being always essen
tial for the normal assimilation
utilization and retention of calcium
from food.
TO the foods mentioned as high
In calcium, adds, as important
sources Of phosphorus, lean meat
and potatoes-both poor in calcium
but rich In phosphorus.
The assimilation, utilization and
retention Of phosphorus In blood,
soft tissues, bones and teeth is
regulated or controlled by vitamin
D too. so that the calcium phos-
phorus balance in the body Is auto
matically adjusted and need give
one no concern as long as the diet
provides fair variety Of the high
calcium. high phosphorus foods,
such as milk, eggs, cheese, meat,
potatoes, greens, wheat.

is hers-to do with as she likes. WHY
should that make her a poorer wife
than the women whose hands we're
busy all day long?
The answer is-it doesn't. While
the bride of 1899 may be a luxury
to her husband so far as the actual
work she does is concerned, if she
is typical of most modern brides
she is going to make up to him
Tor that in many ways.
She will do much more "hostes-
sing" than her mother ever had to
do. And "hostessing" Is as much
the duty of a 1899 wife as was back
breaking work the job Of her grand
mother.
Her grandfather often needed his
wife beside him in the field.
Her husband will need her lust
as badly standing by his side glad
handing guests.
NEW DUTIES ARE
AS DIFFICULT
Then, too. the husband who work.
ed for himself in the old days didn't
need to have his ego built up con-
stantly. Today 1t keeps a wife
working overtime to repair the
damage the boss does to her hus-
bands ego.
Children are better cared for to-
DAY, toe, in spite of the opinion Of
people who resent Mama's leaving
Inem with a nurse occasionally.
1ney are better fed. better educat-
ed, Mama sees to that.
And today it is expected that a
wife will be her husbands compan-
ION. Grandma didn't have to keep
up her golf game, or study up on
her husbands latest hobby.
