COUNTY HOME GETS
SPRAYING WITH DOT
In. CLEANUP DRIVE

The New Hanover County Home
was sprayed recently with DOT as
part of an intensive cleanup cam
paign at the institution, it was an
nounced yesterday by Addison Hew-
lett, chairman of the Board of
County Commissioners.
Of an allotment of DOT granted
the County for use last month, 40
gallons were used to spray the
home with what were termed graft
flying results
Inside the buildings, on the
porches and in the individual
rooms, the preparation is still eff
fective, and is estimated to retain
it's strength from 80 to go days.
Flies. and mosquitoes have been
almost eliminated at the home.
Areas around the barns and cow
sheds were also sprayed with some
effectiveness, although outside,
DOT loses it's potency when it is
rained on. Mr.. Hewlett said that
the county is now attempting to
get additional supplies of DOT in
order to spray the outdoors at the
home, and particularly the stables
and barns where flies breed in
abundance, at regular intervals.
The primary value of DOT as
an insecticide is its long term of
effectiveness. Whereas in the past
it was necessary to spray the
county home weekly, now with the
use of DOT, it will be required
only every sixty or ninety days
on the inside.
A small quantity of the original
unit of DOT obtained by the county
has been turned over to the De-
partment of Health for it's use il.
projects in New Han
ever county to test the practicable
ity of its use.
The solution, applied through
pressure sprayer, consists of IS
per cent kerosene and five per
cent DOT.

Inter preting
The War
BY JAMES D. WHITE

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 7.-(P--
A tiny, 71-year-old career dlplo-
mat has been slipped quietly INTO
the Enpeor's privy council IN
Tokyo.
This probably has nothing to 90
with atomic bombs, but it just
happens that diplomatic trouble
shooter Kenkichi Yoshizama IS
Japan's most practiced dissem-
bier and probably the one most
trusted by the throne.
1t also happens that in the past
ne has conducted with varying
success some very extensive nego-
tiations with Britain, China, the U.
S. A., France and the Netherlands
all of whom are on the winning
end of Japan's war. He also had
had some success with Soviet
Russia, which, Japan fears, might
come into the war against her.
Since Pearl Harbor, this widely
experienced little man has been
mentioned by authorities on Japan
as a possible postwar Premier for
country which must learn all
over again how to get along with
other people.
He has the mark of what pass
es in Japan for a liberal conserva
tive. He married the daughter of
Count Inukai, who used to head
the old Seiyukai political party be-
before the warlords abolished it.
In 1882 his job as Empire trouble
shooter got tough. AS ambassador
TO France he was also Japan S
chief delegate at the League of
Nations. When the League con-
demned Japan's grab in Man
churia, Yosi1izama walked out
with his delegation. The League
and the world, he claimed, did not
understand Japan's true Intentions.
He went home something of a
hero for thus defending his coun-
try in a losing battle, was made
a member of the House of Peers,
and became foreign minister I'm
Ger Premier Count Inukai, his ia
ther-in-laW.
Later, when it became plain that
Japan's chief obstacle to conquest
was American opposition, he was
made director Of the foreign office
Americknosureau. Japan there.
after was depicted in tourist liter
allure land of cherry blossoms
and peaceful Geisha girls.
He retired from the Diplomatic
service in January this year, but
this spring was appointed adviser
Ito Foreign Minister Shigenori Togo
in the New Suzuki cabinet. The
Japanese press said that in view
OF his wide experience both al
nome and abroad Yoshizawa would
be a source Of strength to For
eign Minister Togo, who had spent
most of his time in Russia.
Yoshizawa's new place on the
Privy council may mean no more
than customary honor for one oil
the Empires most experienced
negotiators.
But on the other hand, his gov
eminent may have bigger things in
mind for him.

STATE QUESTIONS
SURPRISE WITNESS

GREENVILLE, S. c., Aug. T.
R)-Producing a surprise witness
in Roy House, former painter
employed by East Carolina Teach
ers College, the State began today
it's rebuttal campaign to tear down
defense testimony in the trial of
DR.. Leon Meadows, former head
of the college.
House, who did not testify in
DR.. Meadows first trial on charge
of embezzlement and false pretense,
said on the stand that he painted
at least eight houses owned by
DR.. Meadows on college time and
with paint supplied by the college.
The witness, who said he was
employed at the college from July,
1885, to Dec. 81, 1889, spent most
of the day on the stand under di-
rect examination by Special Prose-
cutor Jesse Jones. Later in the day
he underwent an hour of cross
examination by defense counsel.
Among other things, House tes-
titled that while painting in DR..
Meadows private office one day
he saw typewriter on On. Mea-
dows' private desk. On several &C.
casions, he said, he saw DR.. Mea-
dows use the typewriter.
DR.. Meadows has commended
throughout the trial that he could
not write on a typewriter, but the
State contends he filled out vouch-
ers for two carloads of cement
never delivered to the college, and
enbezzled 1878 on the deal.
While not listing specifically the
houses he said he painted for DR..
Meadows, on which he used college
paint and on college time, House
said he painted at least eight dwell
lngs owned by DR.. Meadows. The
State charges that at least 5000 in
checks relative to the paint Jobs
were charged by DR.. Meadows to
the college.

But he also believes the spending of the money and the admin istraton should rest in the hands of Aaskans,

eral Counsel Wesley Sturges, who last week was excluded from meet ings of the Board. He objected to too much big business favoritism by Board members . . Sturges is a former Yale professor, former U. S. Foreign Economic Administrator in North Africa, former czar of the liquor industry .s. He and ex- Senator Gillette of Iowa were the chief protectors of the public on the Board; but now Gillette, tired of the battle, is retiring.
 Chief opponent of tine small business-prctector Sturges is Col Alfred E. Howse, Wichita, Kan, banker and furniture magnate. Howse had fine, fortnight rec ord in the South Pacific. He help cd expose graft and inefficiency in the air forces, and his operation of surplus property is equally honest -. But he belongs to the old big business school which would like to see the Sherman Antitrust Act at the bottom of the Potomac
 Along with Howse are numerous colonels he has recruited from Gen. B. B. Somervell's army of econ- omic royalists to help run Surplus Property. Their idea is to get rid of war goods as fast as they can, no matter who gets them (. F.. To some extent this is necessary On the other hand, Congress set up an excellent set of principles in the Surplus Property Act by which small business is not to be left out in the cold, while veterans, schools universities and municipalities get first crack at the vast grab-bag of leftover war goods.
 Civil war over the Aluminium Corporation is the best illustration of the big business vs. little busi- ness row inside Surplus Property !. The big business group was ready to let ALCOA buy some of the best machine tools in the coun- try, now government-owned and loaned to ALCOA for war produc- tion .. This question of ALCOA's monopoly has ragged bitterly ever since Andrew Mellon, father of the giant company, was Secretary oi the Treasury, with an antitrust case against ALCOA hanging fire in the courts for twelve years . Same battle continued between Jesse Jones and Secretary IckeS regarding the new aluminium plants built during the war, which Ickes feared would increase ALCOA's monopoly :. Despite all this, the big business group inside Surplus Property was quite willing to let ALCOA keep the valuable Govern ment-owned machine tools, thus in-

His real glory was the Pax Augusta, which later grew into the Pax Romana which gave the empire and the world longest period of quiet and prosperity known to mankind. That peace showed periodic wars are not necessary. They need not be fixed order of existence.
 It is the splendid model of the Pax Romano which should be an inspiration to the modern world when at least the time comes to lay deep and strong the foundations of new rule and order. It is often said the Pax Romano rested upon the power of the Roman legions. That is not the It was Roman law dspassionate justice, which was ad- ministered without fear or favor.
