JAPANESE LEADER
SAYS DEMOCRATIC
SPARKS STILL ALIVE

NEW YORK-FP)-Are the Japanese
people capable Of uprooting their fascist
leaders and building a democratic Japan
with Allied help? Insight into that
question was given in an interview Israel
Epstein, Allied Labor News correspond
ent, had last year with Shushumu Okano,
leader Of the Japanese Peoples Eman-
cipation League, which has its head
quarters in Yenan, China.
Undoubtedly there is anti-war feeling
among a section of the Japanese people,
but it is not yet common Okano told
Epstein. The majority of the people
are still deceived by the militarists. If
it were not so, Japan would present a
different picture today"
Okano pointed out, however, hat while
ver-estimation Of the anti-war move
ment in Japan might lead 70 errors, to
ignore it and the possibilities of democ-
acy in Japan would be far worse. The
basic fact, he stated, is that this war
is against the interests Of the Japanese
people themselves, and their only hope
lies in an Allied victory in which they
must participate by fighting the mill

cial delegation to visit the Soviet Union

teresting information has been ex-
changed and a firm basis has been laid

VETERAN GETS
FINANCIAL AID
To RUN HATCHERY

ST. IGNATIUS, Aug. 22-Harold S.
Otter, 81, ex-air corps mechanic, should
oe the envy of every fisherman in Mon
tana because he not only literally wades
in rainbow trout on his 53-acre COM
mercial fish hatchery located four and
one-half miles north of here, but he can
dip a fly into Post creek bordering his
place and catch his limit any day.
Through the veterans self-employed
readjustment allowance setup which is
administered by the Montana unemploy-
ment compensation commission for the
veterans administration, Otter will be
able to maintain himself for at least one
a until his new venture, a business
of his own, begins to produce rainbow
trout for commercial consumption.
Il am happy to say that through the
self-employed allowance I am receiving
each month, 1 will be able to live until
my hatchery starts producing on a vol
ume basis" otter said.
More than IS other ex-servicemen are
drawing or have drawn self-employed al
lowances since the inception of the pro-
gram in September 1914, the commission
announces. Discharged servicemen or
women may obtain information on
corning this phase of the G. L. bill by
inquiry at any public employment office
Montana or by writing the commissions
Helena office.
Otter bought the Post Greek hatchery
from John S. Dishman, who has retired,
and who is financing the deal. Dish
man said he was glad to turn over his
business to a veteran, to help him get
started anew, and urged others who wish
to retire to do the same. For this rea-
son, Otter was able to purchase the
spread, but did lot have operating CAPT
tai which is not being supplied by the
S1O0 allowance he receives monthly from
the government. This is provided under
provision of Title V OF the servicemen's
readjustment act of 1914, ome times
called the G. I. bill. In the event of
any net earnings during any n month
he will receive the difference between
500 and his earnings.
The former air corps mechanic served
nine months in the Army before being
discharged for medical disability. Pre-
vious to his service, he had been a
caterer in Milwaukee and Chicago. He
is married and has three children. He
was discharged in July, 1o4S, and worked
for a time for a defense sub-contractor
in Billings as a machinist. He pur-
chased the hatchery June 9 and has
since been working his new property.
