Then came the most peaceful
years of his stormy career. He
lived in Evanston. H.; did research
and taught at Northwestern Uni

wife, an artist, worked in a war
plant but Oyama refused to do
ervthing that would help either
side.
he went back to Japan in 1947
and resumed teaching at Waseda
University in Tokyo.
And he insists:
"The present peace treaty Is a
preparation for future war. A
peace treaty should be agreed on
by all the former enemy powers"
(including the Soviet Union and
Red China).
Oyama says he is a Socialist
and not a Communist. But he
adds he works closely with the
Reds when their policy agrees with
his. He was elected to the House
of Councillors (Senate) in 194o

Yoshida Says Japan

TOKYO, Jan. 8.-Prime Minis

Japan Cannot keep company
with Communist countries"
Presumably Premier Yoshida' S
statement meant that Japan had
no intention of opening diplo-
matte relations with Communist
China in the near future.
The Prime Minister said, how
ever, that Japan would welcome
friendly relations with any ma
tion-including Nationalist China.

Communist countries" the Prime
Minister told a news conference,

TOKYO. Jan. 8.-The japanese
winner of the Stain peace prize
calls the United States-sponsored
japanese peace treaty "prepara-
tion for future war"
Ikuo Oyama. 71-year-old vet
eran pacifist and member of Ja-
pans Parliament, says Japan is
wrong to think about rearming
or about granting permission to
the United States to maintain
military bases here.
He wants no change in Japan's
American-sponsored no-war con-
|stitution.
He wants to go to Moscow to
receive the award.
If he gets permission, Oyama
will be the first Japanese from
the home islands to travel to the
Soviet Union since the end of
World War II.
The Allied occupation and ia
pans Foreign Office have been
turning down all requests for
travel permits to Russia since the
end of the war. A Foreign Office
source said the matter of foreign
exchange was "the big problem. /"
But Oyama said he will apply
for a permit.
Oyama was one of six winners
chosen by the Stain Prize Com
mittee. Each is to receive a gold
medal, a citation and 100000
rubles ($25 ,000).
Oyama said he considered the
award mon political"
Il would have been just as
happy to accept it if it had come
from the other side-from the
American side"
The retired political science pro-
Ifessor. who lived in the United
States during World War II, said
he regarded the prize as less a
tribute to himself than to those

National Opera Guild
Forms Here With Aid
|0f New York Group

Opera is in for a boost around
Washington.
A new organization, called the
National Opera Guild of Washing
ton, was born yesterday.
Founded with the aid of the
Metropolitan Opera Guild of New
York. of which it will be an af-
filiate. the local body consists at
this time of little more than a
group Of officers with good in
tentions.
It plans, however, within the
next two weeks. to elect from IS
to 40 directors-perSons interested
in opera. From this point it hopes
to lay plans for a membership
drive and formulate a more con-
crete program of activity.
The idea began with Mrs. Her.
bert Witherspoon. director of the
Metropolitan Opera Guild and
Leander Mccormack -Goodhart of
Washington, who has served on
national fund drives of the Metro
politan and who is honorary
chairman Of the new group. They
got together here back in No
vember..
Officers Are Elected.
Mrs. Witherspoon was here
again yesterday to help with the
first meeting in the Raleigh Hotel
at which in addition to Mr.. Nc
Cormack- -Goodhart, the other
officers elected we're: Curt Schif-
Ifeler, chairman: David E. Finley,
first vice president; Mrs. Robert
Lowe Bacon, second vice presi-
dent; Mrs. George A. Garrett,
third vice president: Corcoran
Thorn, jr., treasurer. and Mrs.
Constance Snow, secretary.
Explaining something about the
new organization at a press con-
ference yesterday with Mr.. Schif-
feler and Mrs. Snow, Mrs. Wither-
spoon conceded that the return of
the Metropolitan to Washington
this spring after an absence of
many years had lot to do with
the timing of the organization.
The purpose of the guild in New
York, Mrs. Witherspon said, is both
to broaden the basis of support OF
the opera and develop a future
body of interest in the opera
through an educational program
in the schools of New York and
adjoining States.
Currently Mr.. Schiffeler said
the local group plans to buy as
many seats as it can afford fol-
this springs performance of the
Metropolitan here and sell them to
school children at half price.
500 Members Sought.
In its membership drive, the
group will seek to bring 500 per-
sons into the guild under a variety
of types of membership that will
be priced at IS, $25. $50 and 500
and include differing privileges
and benefits. All members will be
national members of the Metro
politan Opera Guild and receive
its "a yearly issues of Opera News,
The privileges and benefits have
not as yet been decided upon.
Generally, the aims of the local
group will be similar to those of
the New York parent body. Mr.
Schiffeler said. ~
Asked if the guild would seek
an opera house here, Mr.. Schiffeler
said, THAT is our goal. We want
it and it's coming"

Mrs. Blanche Miller, district SUI

ard in Monroe County, was guest
speaker at the weekly luncheon
meeting of the Rotary Club yes
terday at the Parish House of st.
Paul's Episcopal church.
Mrs. Miller spoke of the work of
the state board and of the eX-
penSe incurred.
During the the month of Octo-
ber." she told the group. the fe-
deral government spent three and
half million dollars on welfare
in Florida and the state govern
ment spent little over million
dollars"
She explained that the federal 90
vernment paid two-thirds of the
cost of the welfare program.
The three categories of people
aided by this program. named by
Mrs. Miller are: Cd old people.

t3) dependent children.
Since the federal social security
law of 1850. many states have add
ed a fourth category, that of per
manently and totally disabled per.
sons, explained Mrs. Miller, How
ever this category has not been
added in Florida.
Mrs. Miller expressed belief that
this additional group of people
needed help, however because of
the increase in the welfare costs
in Florida, state legislators belle
we'd curtailment was necessary,
and did not add this group to the
law.
Cases in the old age and blind
categorieS are reStudied every IL
months by the district board she
explained and dependent child
rem cases are reStudied every six
months.
In naming rules set up by the
board concerning who should re-
ceive aid. she told the group that

he wondered whether the Russians
wanted to settle the Korean War
or reopen it.
If the Soviet Union thinks it can
help push them to successful
conclusion, he declared, they are
no doubt in touch with the Chinese
Communists and North Koreans
and can work through them.
