Japs Ask Permission
To Import 100000
Tons Of Food in '46
Ey the Associated Press.


TOKYO, Oct. 20.-The japanese
government has requested permis-
sion to imrprt more than 1000 900
tons of fooo> next year, some of it
aboard American ships, Finance
Minister Viscount Keiso Shibusawa
told the Associated Press today.
He added that the Zaibatsu-
monopoly controlling families-"are
heading toward voluntary dissolu-
ton" and said the government won't
take any direct action to force
breakup of these trusts.
ShibuSawa said conversations long
have been under way between Kenji
Kodama, president of the central
liaison office, and American authori-
ties on Japan's food problem. The
full, precise Japanese plan has not
been presented to the Americans.
but the japanese have requested
permission to import rice and other
cereals, soya beans and salt to allevi-
ate their pressing food problem.
The government requested per-
mission to utilize American ships to
transport the imports in excess of
japanese carrying capacity. The
Americans have not replied.
The Finance Minister said 4,000,-
900 tons of food must be imported
to bring the average daily diet to
2,400 calories, which he estimated
as the minimum necessary for sub
sistence. The present average is
$500 calories.
The Ministry is preparing a plan
to finance food imports. Without
imports from anywhere We can
buy them" Shibusawa said several
million japanese would starve in
the next year.
Japan has begun small scale
manufacture of civilian items, in
Guiding clothes, but ShibuSawa said
there are some bottlenecks.
Dissolution of Zaibatsu is not a
legal problem, the Minister said
Therefore the government is de-
pending primarily on willingness of
the great trusts to dissolve them
selves. He said the Ffance Min
istry is conducting an extensive
survey of the old line Zaibatsu and
is in constant liaison with American
authorities on this problem.

VIENNA, Oct. 20.-The provi-
sional government of Austria

At the same time its authority,
which had been limited to the

the provisional government, was
informed of the decision at meet
ing of the Allied Control Council
which he was invited to attend.
He expressed his gratitude in the
warmest terms.
Earlier this week DR.. Renner had
charged that delay of the Allied

ton of vital economic problems and
was threatening to result in hard
ship and suffering in Austria this
winter.

formed by DR.. Renner last April %.

will be to hold free elections as
early as possible, and not later than
December 81"
| DR.. Renner already had set No.
vember 25, as the tentative date for
elections.
| The provisional government will
be empowered to enact laws apply
| ing to the whole of Austria, pro-
vided that they shall first be sub
mitted for approval tc the Allied
Council, and provided this shall not
affect the validity, within the part
of Austria occupied by forces OF
the Soviet Union, of any provisions
enacted between January l, 1915,
and the date on which the new law
applying to the whole of Austria
takes it's place." the memorandum
declared.
Legal Structure Maintained.
! This provision was included to
maintain the legal structure in the
Russian zone, where the Renner
government was set up last spring
! and where its statutes are accepted.
, Recognition of the Renner regime
as provisional government pending
free elections will not Immediately
re- establish normal diplomatic rela-
. tions between the United States and

r milton is based on the condition that

NEW CASTLE. PA.
By Betty Krause

New Castle, Pa, Dec. 6-From
all reports received by yours
truly, it seems the Juniors who
went to Youngstown with the
idea of attending a dance Satur-
day night were quite disappoint-
ed when they found out there
was not any after all.
While we are on the subject
of dances, isorry we could not
attend the one in Ellwood. | am
sure we missed a good time.
We were sorry to hear that
Shirley Herman is in the hospital
again. Well Shirley, some of these
grateful patients that you have
been helping along the road to
recovery should be returning the
favor by cheering you up while
you are sick. We do hope that
you get along good now, and re-
cover quickly so that we can
start seeing you with Our crowd
again.
Bowling was quite an affair
for the girls last Sunday. Some
of the scores were so low that
uninterested spectators were be-
ginning to wonder if we were
| subtracting points instead of add,
ing. How about that Edith, you
; and | were at the head of that
list.
Little Terry Paul Sander made
! his debut to public life last Sun.
! day at Church. He can certainly
! attract and hold the attention ot
a crowd. Seems he was causing
quite traffic jam outside the
church.

our constituents. l, for instance,
have been trying to shake the gov

that our Sesqui-Centennial Exposi-

IF you were on VICAR. Saturday
Ayou will have heard something
about the exhibition the Retail
Dealers put on. I want to give
you a little of it here because it
was very dramatic.
We all go shopping trying to
find such things as mems wear,
women's garments, children's cloth
ing, children's play things, aprons,
electric irons and the like. What
we find is second rate material,
third rate material at terrific
prices. We wonder why. That
exhibition gave US good idea why.
For instance:
There is a firm right here in
Cleveland that makes a beautiful

500 to the consumer. A very
