DISARMAMENT WILL HINGE ON JAPAN'S 'TRIAL' ♦ _ w World Questions Bound Up in League Hearing on Manchurian War. •BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Knirard For.lrn V. dltflr WASHINGTON. Nov. 18—At the very moment President Hoover and President-Elect Roosevelt are hitching up their chairs at the White House next week to discuss war debts, disarmament and economics, half way round the world from them wheels will be in motion which wdll largely make or break whatever they decide. Monday, at Geneva, Japan will go “on trial" before the League of Nations for the virtual annexation of # Manchuria. In reality, However, it will not be Japan that is on trial so much as the league—its covenant, the Kellogg pact, the ninepower treaty and the world peace machinery in its entirety. . Disarmament depends upon outcome of this controversy. Unless the peace machinery is strong enough to protect China from aggression, the. nations will turn to armies and navies for their security, rather than to paper pacts. Sentiment in Washington admittedly is almost 100 per cent against reduction or cancellation of war debts unless accompanied by world-wide ‘ arms reduction and other constructive international understandings. 'Thus the league's decisions on Manchuria, disarmament, war debts and the success of the coming world economic conference are all seen as tied together. The league council meets in special session Monday to take up the report of the Lytton commission, sent to the Far East to investigate. General Frank R. McCoy was the American representative. The Lytton report, in effect, charge* that Japan was the aggressor; that while China was not entirely blameless, Japan was not acting in self-defense when she occupied Manchuria. Manchuria, therefore, should be returned to China. NEED LEGISLATIVE AID. SCHOOL HEADS CLAIM Tax Board Asked to Suggest Revisions of 1932-33 Budget. Unless relief is provided by the 1933 legislature city school terms definitely will be shortened two months, school commissioners informed the state tax board today. In a letter asking the state board to suggest revisions of the 1932-33 budget based on the 92-cent levy, as fixed by the county tax adjustment board, school commissioners pointed j out that a total of $1,727,000 has b'een pared from the budget in comparison to the 1931 figure. This reduction includes a voluntary cut of $870,000 by school com- ! missioners and a $957,000 slash by j the tax adjustment board. "Unless legislative relief is pro- I vided, the commissioners realize this radically will shorten the school term and will work a hardship on both pupils and teachers," the state board was informed in the letter. MAYOR DENIES PLEAS OF HUNGER MARCHERS L <3jk No Money Available for Food, Shelter Here, He Tells Delegation. Demands of a delegation representing the national hunger march committee that food, shelter and transportation be supplied Nov. 2’i as the marchers pass through Indianapolis, was denied Thursday afternoon by Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan. A letter from Chicago, headquarters of the marchers’ committee, demanded the city provide food, decent housing and a place of assembly." Supplies of gasoline and oil also were demanded in the letter. It was stated that the marchers Will, pass through the city en route to Washington to urge relief legislation from congress. Sullivan told the delegation that no money was available for such use, that neither he nor any other city official had a right to use public funds in such a way, and that the hunger marchers must be regarded as a political gathering.

MONTHLY BILLS FOR TAXES ARE HELD FEASIBLE Pay City Levy Like Utility Costs, Cincinnati Manager Advises. By Ncripps-H oxcart Xnrspnper Alliance CINCINATT, Nov. 18.—The plan of rendering monthly bills for city services, just as they are rendered by public utilities to their consumers, holds possibilities, in the opinion of Clarence A.

dent of the International City Managers Association. "Could we pay by the month for waste collection, sewer service, street cleaning and flushing, police and fire protection, health and recreation service, there wouid be little public expense left for local taxpayers to pay on tire first of the year,” Dykstra explains. He believes the educational effect of such plan would be good, for citizens naturally would check their monthly city service bills against those of gas. telephone and other private utility companies. In most cases they would discover that the tax burden is only a fraction of the total amount paid for all utility services, he says. Dykstra made comparisons which showed that a large Cincinnati mercantile establishment paid as much for power and light alone as its tax bill for all local purposes, including county and schools; 1
