JAPANESE STILL ARE BITTER ON U, S. EXCLUSION Just as Much an Issue as Despite Views of Washington. PV Wlf MAM PHI! !r SIMMS I Editor. I OSAKA. .Tilly 4 —Japanese exI elusion is just, a; much an issue to- | day in .Japan a/, it ever war-. how- ; ever much the government at Washf ington mav fee] inclined to ron.sidei j it as settler). In the fe-.r weeks Miirr my arriva I In this eountry I have travelec i pretty mueli all over the island. And while no single Japanese,ofTi;tal or private citizen ever has mentioned the snbieet, unpleasantly. 11 has come up in the course of nearh every conversation that has lastec rnnrr than a few minutes Japane e exclusion from the Unit.ec Rtafes. t everywhere am told, is thf me cloud on Japanese-American relations. and. unie.v. I miss my guess this will entne a ■ a surprise to a go or many officials in Washington, most of whom seem to have forgotten thf legislation long ago and who. wher reminded of it, suggest that it is a closed book. View of Great Friitor “To ronceal the way we feel about exclusion would be foolish,” Shingoro Ta.kaiski, director of two ol thf greatest, daily newspapers in Japan—the Tokio Niehi-Nich and the Osaka Manichi—told me. “We feel very deeply about, this matter, we Japanese, and T think 1 may safely sav that, our bitterness over if can never entirely subside until the cause is removed. •‘We thoroughly understand America's position," the editor went on to say. “We have no desire to send large numbers? of Japanese over there. In fact. it. would be the worst thing we could do. It would make matters worse, instead of better. “However desperate our plight may be with regard to our fastgrowing population, we realize fully that the solution of the problem does not. lie in emigration to the United States. Everybody in Japan now understands that the United States can not permit unlimited immigration. and why. Urges Quota Hasis “But we would like to see the discrimination against Japan removed by being placed on a quota basis. "Ts I am not mistaken only about ]PS Japanese would be allowed to enter every year under the quota.— a. number so small as to be quite negligible. “Less than 200 Japanese entering a country of 120 000.000 over a period of twelve months muld not possibly disturb its economical or labor situation an iota." ‘Exclusion." is the one obstacle in thf: aath of perfect friendship between the peoples of the two coon ries. “Americans ab, cr >rb approximately 50 per cent of Japan's exports. “And. as you can see for yourself, Japan is buying a tremendous quantity of American goods. Virtually every automobile in the country is of American make. Roaribuildipg machinery, dredges, spinning and weaving machinery, elevators. and so on, are mostly from your country." DRESS REFORM FOR MEN SOUGHT BY CLUB Less nothing I s - Object of New British Organization. /?-i r hi'W In LONDON. .Till;. 1 A men's dress reform party ha - been formed here to seek means "whereby men may reform their clothes with as much profit to their health and appearance as women have recently achieved." The founders include representatives of the church, stage, schools and professional groups and are headed by the Very Rev. W. R. Inge, the "gloomy dean' of St. Paul's. "We want to make men's clothing less ugly, less unhealthy and Jess cumbersome." said Dr. Alfred C. Jordan acting secretary of the organization. “The less clothing we wear the better it is for us. Men wear far i too much clothing. | Perhaps the first thing to abolI Jsh in the collar stud. We must get f rid of that.'' GIRLS FIGHT WIDOWS Flapper*. fondcmn Women Who Wed Second Time. LONDON. July 4. —Flappers are tip in arms here because widows are marrying for a second time. One of them recently remarked to Sir Thomas Davies: "We girls want you to bring in a low to stop widows marrying a secend time. There aren't enough men to go round for us girls. Widows shouldn't- be allowed to marrv until there are.” NAPS AT SIOO A MINUTE Driver Falls \sleep Three Minutes. Crashes; Pays SROO Fine. Bv rm f ci# P LYNN. Mass..

Dry'Army and Navy Drive Out Rum Runners From Detroit Front

Seventeen coast, guard cutters like the CG 236, shown at the right, have been assigned to the Detroit rum war, which is blocking 85 per rent of the nation's imported liquor supply. At the left, t above) a. fast customs border patrol boat is preparing to tie up a liquor boat overhauled in the Detroit river. Below are shown the houses and boat shelters built out over the Detroit river where much liquor is unloaded from small craft with outboard motors like that shown in the picture.

500 Agents and 17 Cutters Guard U, S„ Canadian Border. Bv M l terrier, Detroit, July 4.—The great- j est prohibition army and navy 1 ever brought together under the, American flag have made the once rip-roaring Detroit river into as peaceable and law-abiding a stretch of, water as the North American continent can show. The “big push" of the prohibition forces has made the opening of its campaign a huge success. The runners are not coming across at Detroit now. The Detroit speakeasies are clos--1 ing right and left. The highways leading out of the city no longer j ! resound to the roar of big truck j jtrains carrying booze for distant j | cities. 50ft Agents on. Duty There's a reason—several reasons, j in fact. Five hundred prohibition agents or other government forces serving in that, capacity are on duty here now. The coast guard has five of its ! snappy seventy-foot cuttters, each ! one mounting a one-pounder rapidire gun. a couple of machine guns i and a squad of expert rifle men. It has a dozen more cutters on the way here and is building a whole flotilla of high-speed motor boats | for use in patrolling the river. Turn to Chicago Thus Detroit, through which Seymour Lowman, assistant secretary of the treasury, once estimated that ; 85 per cent, of the nation's imported j liquor supply found its entry, is | being dried up. Thus, while Detroit- is growing i parched and arid, other cities such as Chicago are getting even more Canadian liquor than they got be- ! fore. Chicago's supply, for instance, is being brought, across the upper end of Lake Erie and landed in obscure ; coves and inlets on the Michigan J shore north of Toledo, where heavy ; trucks wait to receive it and take j it overland to the market. Similarly, some operators are J bringing their cargoes over the line north of Detroit, selecting landing \ places on the shores of Lake St. | Clair or the Huron river. * Most, Booze Came Through Detroit Up until a short time ago the | situation was almost, unbelievably | bad. Lowman not only estimated that 35 per cent, of the country's booze came in through Detroit; he had ; figures, furnished by the Canadian , customs men. to show that since j Jan. 1. the runners have landed 11.523.750 gallons of liquor in De- ! ; troit. Anri that isn't the half of it. Millions of gallons in addition were

Detroit river seems to have been made to order for the smugglers, j Detroit's river front sprawls along j the bank for miles. At no place is ! the Canadian shore more than a , mile away. All along the river there are slips, piers, coves, docks and inlets, offering countless places for the reception of contraband cargoes. The rum runners had a fleet of speedboats—rakish little craft that could come across from the Canadian shore in less than two minutes.

Only Captive Baby Gorilla Has Chimpanzee as Nurse

Bamboo, Now 2. is Getting to -be a Big Boy in Philadelphia Zoo, By V E 4 Service PHILADELPHIA. July 4.—“ Bamboo” is 2 now. and with adolescence approaching he'll no longer be the most remarkable baby in the country. But Bamboo still will have the distinction of being the only gorilla to be reared from infancy in a. zoo. When Bamboo came to this country in 1927, he was a, scared, whimpering little bantamweight of less than eighteen pounds—considerably under par for a ninemonths old baby. No child of a millionaire ever was given more scientific care. How come? Ask C. Emerson Brown, superintendent of the Philadelphia zoo, and he will tell you that Bamboo is the product of regular hours, a balanced diet and congenial home life. “Few gorillas.” said Brown, “even have reached this country alive, and those who lived to get here soon die. not only because they could not survive the climatic changes but because they suffer such keen loneliness away from the beasts of their tribe. “We decided on an experiment which we believe saved his life—we gave him ‘Lizzie’ for a nurse.” Lizzie is a delightful, and companionable chimpanzee, with a strong maternal instinct under her gray, frivolous exterior. “Just as soon as she saw the

There would be signal men on each bank. On the Detroit side, the signal man would keep a,n eye on the customs patrol boat. When it had gone to the other end of its beat he would flash a signal to the Canadian side. Instantly a speed boat would dart otu and tear madly across the river. The customs boat would wheel and co! ;e back—but by the time it would reach the scene the liquor boat would be securely docked, hidden by some projecting boathouse or pier. Sometimes the runners selected shallow inlets, which their boats could enter but which were too shallow for the coast guard cutters.

sad little gorilla, grieving for his homeland, she took him to her heart, and made a home for him. “At least four times a day. Bamboo dines well and elegantly on foods that a human would not scorn,” Brown continued. “His usual menu is boiled rice, milk, oranges and buttermilk. If he seems to be off his feed, his appetite is tempted with cake, fruits or ice cream. However, he is not permitted to become too epicurean.” Now, of course, Bamboo is much larger than Lizzie. With one sweep he can floor her with an uppercut. But he has the gallantry of conscious superiority—he romps with Lizzie, boxes and tussles with her, but he never harms her. EXCHANGE PASSPORT COURTESY WITH PERU IT. S, Permits Nonimmigrants to Enter Without Visas. Bn J nited Frees LIMA. Peru, July 4.—Following an exchange of state notes the goverments of the United States and Peru have reached an agreement whereby citizens of the United States of the nonimmigrant classes in the future will not be required to possess visas to enter this country, it was announced here today. The same category of Peruvians, that is, merchants and tourists, will be extended the same courtesy by the United States government. This agreement, the first of its kind ever reached between the United States and any South American government, will become effective on July 15.

POLITICS HURT I PUBLIC CHARITY, j SAYS BROWN Partisan Influences Chief Foe to Efficient Work, He Says, i i Bji Timre Special SAN FRANCISCO, July 4.—Par- I j tisan politics is the. blighting in- ] ! fluence on public charity, John A Brown, secretary of the state board of charities of Indiana, told the national conference of welfare workers here in an adddress Wdnesday afternoon. “Public social service frequently is criticised," Brown declared. “Some of it is justified. The one criticism most often heard is that it is dominated by partisan politics. “We know of its blighting influence when it gets its strangle-hold on the public social service of the state and county, repelling science i and research and discouraging stu- ! j dnts and scientific men from enter- | ing public service.” The speaker declared, however, that there is a. marked trend from private charities to public. “The governmental policy of leaving the matter of humanitarian functions to private agencies has been superseded by a movement toward the regulation, supervision and administration of many features of social welfare work,” said Brown. “There is a. growing tendency to place upon the state and 'its political divisions many functions that formerly were private. The government, justifies its position and activities in the field of social welfare on the principle that the chief function of government is the promotion of human welfare.” LOOT BONDED BOOZE $2,000,000 Worth Missing From U, S. Warehouse, Bui nitre! Prcag CHICAGO, July 4.—Fifty thousand gallons of bonded whisky, valued at $2,000,000, were reported today to have been stolen from, the Sibley warehouse, government concentration depot for the middle west. The report, wa-s based on an investigation made by special agents and submitted to Dr. James M. Doran, commissioner of prohibition, at Washington. Statistics in the report, to Doran were said to disclose systematic substituting of colored water for whisky in the warehouse over a period of nearly a year.
