Toxic Editor Urges
That Japanese Drop
Dependence on Axis
Leaders Would Commit No
Folly by Seeking Others
Support, He Declares
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TOXIC, Sept. 8.-Gyokuzo HAMA
wa, editor and proprietor of the
semi-official Diplomatic Review, de-
clared today that Japan" should
depend upon no one but herself" in
q statement aimed against Japanese
who talk of dependence on the Axis
or other allies.
Writing in the newspaper Chugai
Shogyo, Hanzawa said Japanese
statesmen should survey the general
world situation and calculate Ja-
pans own interests. He was conf
dent, he said, that Japan's leaders
would commit no folly in bringing
Japan harm by seeking the advan-
tage of other countries"
Denies U. S. Opinion Is Split.
In discussing public opinion in the
United States, he warned the jap
anese against concluding that isola-
zionist talk meant American opin-
ion was split.
The American method of free dis
eussion of public issues, he said, gen.
orally results in greater unity and
stronger support of the National
Government
Sadao Araki, former war minis
ter, writing in Hochi, said internal
disSension was more to be feared in
Japan than encirclement by the
British, Americans, Chinese and
Dutch.
Domestic troubles, he said, were
the result of foreign ideas incompat-
ible with the Japanese way of life
and thinking, and if "foreignism"
were abolished there would be no
worries over fifth columnists or
problems of espionage.
Greer Incident Watched.
The Greer fight with a Nazi sub
marine drew the attention of the
Japanese press today from the

and even the shipments of American
oil to Russia.

made necessary a new examination
of the situation in the Pacific.
The government organ, Kokumin,
interpreted the incident to mean
Germany no longer thought it nee
essary to be patient with the United
States. The incident portended, the
paper added, worldwide crisis in
which "Japan's position has come to
be exceedingly delicate and impor-
tant."

Kokumin said contradictory Amer

regarding the naval fight made 1t

Farmers Advised to Apply for Feed Loans in New
 Haven Tuesday

John J. McDermott, field super- visor for the Emergency Crop and Feed Loan Offlce, advises that farm- CTS who desire to apply for crop and feed loans for the i94l season should arrange the file their appli- cations with him Tuesday, March 26 from 2 to 8 D. m. at the New Haven County Farm Bureau Ofilce, 30l Post Ofiice Building, New Haven.

Q matter of policy rather than a matter of individual cases" The city, he declared, "cant go back ir- to the past" without receiving pen- sion claims from the willows of for- mer firemen and number of oth- CTS.
 Tt would be impossible to draw the line If @ pension like this one is voted" MT. Lynch declared.
 Recevied Compensation
 Harry Coughlan spoke in favor of the pension bill for Mrs. Marie Coughlan, declaring that her hus- band had lost hearing because of service injuries. MT. Lynch opposed the bill, saying that the widow had received workmen's compensation.
 The pensions for Mrs. Mary Lud- dy, Mrs. Margaret Luddy and Mrs, Ervillia Blodgett should be voted, MT. Lynch said, because they would have been granted under the pen- sion act existing before 1889 but that amendments made two years ago left them chemically ineligible.

CBy Dsmecrat LsgI.IatlSCe RspossesslS a ass,t sl

(By Democrat Legislative kep0rterl
 state Capitol, Hartford, March 20 Opposition to pension for Mrs. Kathryn Lynch, widow of former Fire Chief Thomas J. Lynch Of Wa terbury, was voiced by the city ad- ministratlon at Q hearing before the cities and boroughs committee yes- terday afternoon. Former Senator George T. Culhane advocated the passage of the bill, which would pro. vide for the payment of $500 a year to the widow, while the city'S spokesman against the bill was Cor poratoin Counsel J. Gregory Lynch.
 The city administration meantime announced support for pension bills benefittlng Mrs. Margaret Luddy, mother of the late Patrolman John Luddy, Mrs. Mary Luddy, mother of the late Patrolman Edward Lud- dy, and the mother of the late Pa tEolman Eugene Blodgett.
 The city opposed pensions for Ma rie Coughlan, widow of former Fire man Peter Coughlan, and for Wil- liam ORourke, veteran street de- partment employe.
 Hearings Postponed
 The committee postponed for two weeks hearings on pension bills for Fireman Harold Parker, former Fireman Patrick J. Costello and for- mer Fireman Daniel J. Tram, and on e bill by Attorney John F. Tobin concerning the police department. Reviewing the record of former Chief Lynch, Senator Culhane said he had been a fireman for 52 years and had given memorable service to the city. He was injured several times while on duty, he said, and eventually lost his sight because of service-c connected injuries. Chief Lynch was retired in February, 1897 and died in November of that year
 After her husbands death, Mrs Lynch was told by the city not to file any compensation claim because she would be taken care of," Sena- tor Culhane told the committee.
 The pension bill for Mrs. Lynch was decidedly worthwhile, stated Senator Culhane, and had the sup. port of Senator Edward P. Egan ant many others.
 Corporation Counsel Lynch sait the granting of pensions Should bt
