The consensus in Washington Is
that Japan will await the outcome
of the war between Germany and
Russia before attempting any
move on Siberia.
Hopes that Admiral Toyado, an
old-line naval leader. would insti-
tute moderate policies. are out
weighted in the minds of American
observers, by joint asmy-navy dec
larations that there will be no
alteration of Japan's current eco
nomic and military program.
This program was formulated
several weeks ago amid charges
that the United States and Great
Britain were attempting to en-
circle the japanese Empire.

Early Ending
Of Jdp-Soviief
Treaty Seen
BY ERIC FRIEDHEIM
Init News Service stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, July 19-Early
termination of the Japanese-Soviet
nonaggression pact was forecast
in American diplomatic quarters
today as the result Of the Japanese
cabinet shakeup.
Veteran officials and others
familiar with the Far Eastern pic
ture place little credence in re-
ports that the elevation of Admiral
Teijiro Toyoda will cause Japan TO
adopt a more moderate policy in
her foreign relations.
The ousting of Yosuke Matsuoka
as foreign minister, it is believed,
paves the way for eventual abfe-
cation Of the neutrality treaty
signed recently with the Moscow
government. This treaty was
effected largely al Matsuoka's in
itiatiVe.

CLASH OVER EXPANSION

American observers believe that

suited from clashes over what
direction Japan's next expansion
list move should take. They dis
count reports that the cabinet split
over the choice between the adop-
ton of a moderate policy-possible
with the United
States and Great Britain--and one
OF extremeism, entailing an invas-
ion TO the north or south.
There was no confirmation In
American official channels that
Germany had urged Japan TO
strike Immediately at the poten-
tially-rich maritime provinces Of
Russian Siberia.

Early History of Tribes in Connecticut Reviewed
 by Miss Plumley

A. Loretta Plumley of Branford addressed the Waterbury Natural ist club last night at the Matta- tuck Historical society building on '"The Lore of the Connecticut In. dian."
 The speaker, garbed in colorful Indian dress, said she had made visits to Indians in various parts of the state, and at one time she interviewed the aunt of the last Mohican who spoke the Mohican language.
 Miss Plumscy estimated there were between 1900 to 1000 Indians living in Connecticut at one time, and of these the two more im- portant tribes were the Mohicans who lived in the southeastern part of the state. and the Pequots in the eastern section.
 Connecticut also had other tribes. the lecturer said, and these were t..-e Narragansetts and the Matta- tucks. She said that Indians in Connecticut abandoned their tepees for the Hong houses" although vestiges in many caves testify that many lived in caves.
 Miss Plumley said she collected arrowheads and has found Indian knives, tomahawks and baskets. One of her arrowheads, the speaker said, was found in froiie of a school in New Hartford when she was 6 kAanhax.
