To Put Military Clique
In Control in 1910
BY the Associated Prsss

TOKYO, Jan. 2.-Former Premier
Hideki TOTO today termed as pre-
posterous" suggestion by the war
crimes trial prosecution that the
1910 Japanese cabinet decision to
reform the government was an at
tempt to put the military clique in
the political saddle.
Chief Prosecutor Joseph B..
keenan, had asked If the reor-:
ganization decision had as one OF
its purposes an effort to compel the
diet (parliament) to function ac-I
cording to the desires of the mill
tary group in Japan"
Mr.. keenan, questioned the de-
fendant at length about an entry
in the diary of q co-defendant,
Marquis Koichi KIDD. lord keeper
Of the prfvy seal who quoted the
emperor as saying the proposal OF
TOTO for the post had been "hasty."I
Throughout today's session. TOTO
seemed calm and his answers came
after noticeable reflection. During
the first days Of his defense, the
former premier had waved his
hands excitedly and engaged In
sharp exchanges with Mr.. Keenan,
glaring at the prosecutor through
horn trimmed spectacles.
TOTO testified that the 1910 cabi-
net reform was aimed at eradicating
Communist thoughts" among some
Japanese educators. In discussing
the government structure, he said
he was not familiar with the totali-
tartan form of the Nazi govern
ment.
II do not know what you mean
by totalitarian government" he told
Mr.. keenan,, ''but it was intended
here (holding up a document en-
bracing the cabinets policy to
carry out reforms creating policy
in Japan which would permit .
demonstration Of the highest poten-
tialities and powers of national
strength"

ert F. Cogswell today recommended

Harlem Pastor Tells
Congregation to Fight
Army Segregation

NEW YORK, April %. (ANP)
Declaring his support to the A.
Philip Randolph civil disobedience
plan, the Rev. w. Eugene Hous-
ton told his church group at the
Randall Memorial Presbyterian
church last week that the Negro
must be prepared to shed blood in
the fight against segregation in
the armed services.
He also announced from his pull
pit that Negroes should support
Henry Wallace for President if the
Republicans did not nominate
Harold Stassen and the Demo-
cats did not nominate President
Truman. A vote for anyone else,
he said, would commit "the race
to more suffering without pur-
pose.
In backing his statement favor
ing a fight on a jim crow army,
Rev. Houston said:
eff then we shall be charged
with treason, let it be. Our blood
shall be on the hands of the hyp-
ocrites like Sen. Morse of Ore
gon and Gen. Eisenhower, who
would apologize for and defend
racial prejudice rather than, as
supposed leaders should do, step
out in front and lead the fight

Soviet Charges West
Co||aborates Against
Freedom for Colonies
by the Assoeioted Press

SYDNEY, Australia, Dec. 2.-The
colonial policy of Western nations
was hotly attacked yesterday by the
Russian delegate at a meeting Of
the United Nations Commission for
Asia and the Far East.
Kirill Novikov accused Holland,
Britain, France and the United
States of collaborating to prevent
colonies from achieving independ-
ence.
The regional conference, which
passes on information and sugges-
tions to a q. N. committee, began
its work Monday. The Russian
delegation of II showed up for the
first time yesterday.
Russia Opposes Delay.
Mr.. Novikov burst in at the end
of a debate on whether the Indo-
nesian Republic should be admitted
to the commission as an associate
member. Most delegates yesterday
wanted the proposal deferred.
The Russian asked what right the
commission has to hold up Indo-
nesia's application. He questioned
Dutch ability to bring about union
of the Netherlands and Indonesia.
He said Hollands interest was to
exploit Indonesia "for consider
able part of the Dutch budget"
THE action taken by the metro
politan powers, including the United
States, makes one doubt that they
will freely give away their colonies
and they are taking all necessary
military and other measures to re-
tain them," the Soviet delegate said.
Russia Votes Alone.
Russia was alone in opposition to
postponement, and the vote was
8 to / to hold over Indonesia's ap-
plication until December IL. The
conference agreed that unless the
Netherlands or Indonesia asked for
reconsideration before December
IL, the application would not come
up until next years conference.
Mr.. Novikov said later his re-
marks about Indonesia also applied
to Vietnams admission as an asso-
ciate member. Yesterday Chairman
Sac Hkun Hkiu of Burma ruled
that no official application for as
sociate membership had been re-
ceived from Vietnam.

Procedure for Appropriations
The House Appropriations COM
mittee has begun reporting the ser
les of annual appropriations bills
for money for governmental oper-
atoms, beginning July /, 1913 and
extending through to June 80,
l949. This is but the first step so
far as Congress is concerned. The
procedure on appropriations
legislation is as follows: The De-
partment concerned makes up it's
budget, detailing all funds needed
for its operations. This proposed
budget goes to the Budget Bureau,
which acts for the President in
approving OF changing the fig
ures presented by the Department
concerned. The Department, upon
receipt of the budget approval,
must conform to any revised fig.
ures approved by the Budget
Bureau and present the budget to
the House Appropriations Com.
mittee. The House Appropriation:
Committee holds hearings, deter.
mines upon the amount it viii
recommend, the budget is intro.
duced In the form Of bill, ane
considered by the House. After
the House acts, the measure goe:
to the Senate where It is referred
to the Senate Appropriation Com,
mittee where It is again subjected
to study and recommendation b,
that committee to the Senate fo1
furthur action. The Senate ther
acts on the measure, after which
conferees are named by the Hous'
and Senate to discuss and recon-
mend to each house compromiSt
recommendations on each disput
ed item. Each house then acts OF
the conference reports and tn
measure goes to the President TO
signature, making it law. Thu
it will be seen that the recommen
dation of the House Appropriat
ions Committee is but one step II

the several necessary to final en-
actment. As a consequence, one
is unable to more than approx
mate what bill will finally con-
tain until it reaches the confer
ence stage.
Income Tax Lsgislation
The House passed H.R. 1870, the
tax reductions bill, in the form in
which il was reported by the
House Ways and Means Commit
tee. The debate on the floor
brought out the interesting fact
that assuming the average family
consists of man, his wife and
two children, that the breadwin-
ner works 40 hours week and
earns $500 year, H.R. 4790 is
the equivalent of q &c an hour
wage increase. The measure Is
now undergoing study by the Sen.
ate where 1t Is expected changes
will be made, with the final leg.
islation to be submitted to the
President for signature to be wor.
ked out in conference. It will pro.
badly be several weeks before the
Senate acts. ae--.. ..-s
, Veterans Legislation
Three bills of much interest tc
VETERANS have been passed by the
House and two of them, having
already passed the Senate, will
20 to the President for signature
following conference COMMITTEES
agreements. S. 1893 increases on,
the-job training ceilings and S
1894 provides increased subsist
ence allowances for those veteran.
in school. The House also passet
H.R.- 1888 which will permit ad
mission of alien finances and ii
ancees of members of the us
Armed Forces to this country VI
to December 81, 1913.
Retirement Legislation
Many letters have been receiv
ed regarding retirement legislat
ion. The tax bill increasing ex
emptions of those over IS will b
very helpful to retired personne
