Toxic S ENJOYS
Very Hopeful
Of u. 5. Accord
But Jap Authority
Says Craftsmanship
Alone Can Bar Clash
BY KINGSBURY SMITH

Init News Service stan Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.-Tht
Japanese ambassador, Admira
Nomura, today said that he anc
his colleague. Saburo Kurusu. are
very hopeful" over the possibility
of reaching an understanding with
the United States.
The japanese envoy made this
statement just before entering the
office of Secretary of State HUI
for a resumption of the critical ex'
ploratory talks.
"Why should there have to be
any fight between our two
countries? ?" he saked reporters.
"Why," he added. "are the news
papers here so gloomy. We are
very hopeful.
FIGHTING AMERICANS
"You Americans are always In
n fighting mood. Why are you
so war-minded 2"
A reporter pointed out 10 the
ambassador that the Japanese
press appears far more war
minded in its daily stories thar
the American newspapers.
KIrusu replied:
I'VE used to have naval holt
days. It's a pity we cannot get
q press holiday"
Nevertheless, a responsible ia
panese source here said that only
supreme craftsmanship will bt
able to avert major clash.
MEET HALFWAY
Told that japanese Premier
Tojo's statement to the Diet ha:
created the impression in Washing
ton that Toxic wants the United
States TO do most of the conces
sion-making, the japanese source
said:
THAT Is not true. Japan wants
the United States to meet 1t
halfway"
American quarters confirmed
that Japan had offered to make
certain concessions, but they were
described as follows:
"They are those of a man who,
after shooting up town and
announcing his intention of
painting 1t red, agrees, when
called TO task, not to shoot up
certain other sections, but Is
still determined to paint the
town red"
The town, in this instance, is the
Orient, and the other sections tn,
Pacific, with China tn,
part still to be painted red.

dition as possible.
That Is the fundamental
principle upon which our
public school system is based
or should rightfully be
based.
When a government fails
i'm this important function 1t
fails in a primary duty and is
itself DEFECTIVE.
The draft, and war cOndi-
tons generally, have un-
covered weaknesses i'm our
governmental and educational
S v S { e m s which are now
clearly seen to exist and
which we must promptly
recognize and remedy.
And the remedy is not less
democracy but more democ-
racy, and more genuin e
democracy ore genuine
care for the welfare of the
citizenry and for the eff
cheney of the citizenry-in
their task of operating and
defending their democracy.
TIME training for all of
1 the functions of eff
cient democracy should
begin i'm the schools.
Tinkering the teeth of 1885,
900 dental detectives, and
treating medically and surgi-
cally the hundreds of thou
sands of other detectives is
cOmmendable but not funda-
mental i'm the creation of good
soldiers and good citizens.
II is not construction. 1t is
repair.
1t is the schools of de-
mOcracy which must produce
good citizens for the conduct
of democracy and good citi-
zen soldiers for the defense
of democracy.
The cure for all the failures
of democracy lies i'm the bet
ter and more complete educa-
ton of the youth of
democracy.
Adequate education of all
Americans should be provided
by American schools-physi-
cal perfection s h o uld be

in the true democracy of

Good soldiers and good citi-

Kiefer Nurse
Held in Theft

Drugs Were Snapped
to Cover Up Shortage
Investigator Reports

AS the result of a discovery that
morphine tablets were stolen from
the surgical ward at Herman Kie-
fer Hospital, a nurse from the
ward is held at police headquar-
tiers today for investigation.
John F. Roehl, chief investiga-
tor for the Board of Health, said
the nurse admitted that she was
drug addict.
The investigation began when
patients who had been admins
tered tablets after operations re-
sponded as though to stimulants
instead OF sedatiyes. 1t was dis
covered, said Roehl, that the nurse
gave patients Strichnine tablets,
instead of morphine as prescribed.
She took the morphine herself,
Rochl asserted.

dental defects.
OF course, a man can be a
good soldier and a good citi-
zen with imperfect teeth.
George Washington had
bad teeth and he certainly
qualified as a citizen and a.
"a soldier.
Still, there is no good rea.
son why, in these enlightened
days, American youth should
labor under the physical
handicap of bad teeth.
1t should be part of the
obligation of any truly demo.
cratic government to see that
the young people OF the ian'
are brought up not only
mentally equipped but physi'
cal.y sound.
Bad teeth are due mainly
to. improper care of the teeth
and improper food.
There should be a dental
clinic in every school.

Ellen Stahlneckcr that when she
left Herman kiefer Hospital in
1927 because of illness she had
undergone two operations and be-
came an addict 10 relieve her pain.
The federal bureau of narcotics
investigated the case al the re-
quest of the hospital, but turned
the nurse over TO Detroit police
because there Is no federal charge
covering the case. The police have
referred the case TO the prosecu-
tors office for disposition.
Roehl said the nurse previously
had an excellent record and was
readily rehired last juno.

German government has sent

pulsion of the German Minister
from Bolivia was "falsified," the

that Berlin obviously is convinc-

only one link of attempts on the
part of responsible quarters in
the United States to bring about
friction between the Axis powers
