JAPAN SHARPENS
FOREIGN POLICY
Expected To Lead To Bet
ter Association With The
Rome Berlin Axis

TOKYO, July 19.-LR-A new and
sharper Japanese foreign policy, one
expected to lead to closer association
with the Rome-Berlin axis, was
formulated today by the inner gov
eminent OF the new totalitarian-
type regime of Premier Prince Flu
mimaro Konoye.
Prince Konoye declined details of
a long conference Of cabinet leaders
but those closely watching the eff
fects of Europe's war in the Far
East held it certain that Japan, be-
fore taking any expansionst action,
first would seek an understanding
with Germany.
This was held to be particularly
true of French Indo-C China and the
Netherlands East Indies.
Qn German-occupied Amsterdam,
a German spokesman declared that
mistreatment of Germans in Dutch
East and West Indies "obliged'
Germany, with regret to act in
reprisal.)
Konoye said today's conference
touched on relations with the United
States, Great Britain and Soviet
Russia and that complete agree
ment was reached"
This statement followed the asser-
ton of Yaichi Rosuma, foreign Of
flee spokesman, that Japan wanted
more friendly relations with the
United States but would not be dip
lomatically humble to get them.

100000 WILL BALLOT
Harry Caldwell Urges All
FIue-Cured Growers To
Take Part In Vote

RALEIGH July 19.-P-Predic-
tions that farmers would favor three
wear crop control for f~lue-cured to-
hacco were made tonight by state
and federal agricultural leaders, on
the V of a belt-wide referendum on
acreage quotas.
F~lue-cured growers throughout the
tobacco belt will go to the polls to-
morrow to decide among these three
PROPOSITIONS: whether control should
amply to the 1941 crop; whether con-
troll should apply to the 1941, 1912 and
1913 crops; or whether there should
be no control.
FIoyd's Prediction
E. Y. Floyd, AAA executive Off
Ger at N. C. State College, said he
believed North Carolina farmers
would give three-year control an IS
per cent majority. Approximately IS
per cent of the Tar Heel farmers will
favor either one-year or t~hree-year
control, he added.
]. B. Hutson, assistant AAA ad-
ministrator, also predicted that three
year control would carry.
Three-year control will become ef-
fective if it is approved by two
thirds of the voters participating in
the belt-wide referendum. If two
thirds of those voting do not favor
three-year control, but if the COM
bined vote for three-year and one
year quotas is more than two-thirds,
one-year quotas will become effec-
tive. If less than two-thirds of the

The question whether Secretary

vigorous schedule of travelling and
speaking, in the presidents stead,
was left to a conference between
the two nominees next Thursday

With Farley presiding, the DEM

The genial New Yorker was an

Question of Succession
The question of Farley's success
