JAPAN ARMY REDUCTIONS TQ BE RADICAL

Tokio Decides Concessions Must be Made to Popular Demands BY HARRY L. ROGERS. STAFF CORRESPONDENT T. N. SERVICE WASHINGTON, FEB. 2S. Japan !3 til'out to make radical reductions in thf strength of her standing army, act ordintr to advices reaching here today from Tokio. The Tokio covernment, notwithstanding the objection of militaristic Rrqup among: the "elder statesmen." has decided that concessions must be made to popular demand which baa been crystalized by the activi;:es of the so-called "Kokumlnto" or opposition which numbers among: its membership some of the most influential of Japan's disarmament advocates. Japanese general staff is standing out against any reduction in the number of divisions, but apparently lias agreed to a reduction of 50,000 In personnel, which would bring the standing army to 24S.000 officers and men. TJnder present plans. Infantry battalions would be reduced from four to three companies, and reductions also will be made in the number of machine guns allotted to regiments other than those attached to machine gun divisions. The programme proposed by the general staff makes nt provision for savings In appropriations and therefore It Is eapeeted to rrove unsatisfactory to the Kokumlnto, which has based its f.ght for reduction largely upon economic grounds. The saving- to be accomplished by eliminating 50,000 men, would be expended, under the proposed scheme, for the purchase of more modern equipment and for the development of new weapons of warfare brongrht forward by the World War, it Is stated. The movement for radical reductions not only In the number of men, but also in appropriations for the support of the army' appears to have the support of the rank and file of Japanese, and the press of Japan is practically unanimous In favoring it. The programme of the Kokumlnto calls for a reduction of 50 per cent In the strength of the standing army, and thla campaign haB the enthusiastic support of such influential publicists as Inukai and Yukio o aki. fhe latter of whom has long been idcntiHe; with the movement toward disarmament and has a larife following: throughout Japan. The militaristic group which is opposing reduction in military and naval strength .has the support of the labor element In Japnn. which is bitter against any policy tending to lessen the number of government employes in arsenals, shipyards or munitions factories. This feeling is voiced most emphatically by the Koshikawa Labor association, whirh has gone on record as opposing the agreements reached at the Washinpton conference, on the ground that they will add materially to the unemployment problems with v. hich Japan is row confronted. B CASE IN GARY Kidwartl A. Hauck, proprietor of a grocery and meat market at 3768 Croadway, Gary, today filed his voluntary petition in bankruptcy in the federal court at Hammond.

The Lost Needle THERE'S an old English play known as "Gammet Garton's Needle." Its pkt is woven around the loss of the family needle no trifling misfortune in the days of old. Today, in this era of ours, life is so rich in comforts that we seldom wonder how folks got along in the ancient world. And we sometimes forget what an important role advertising has played in making life pleasant and altogether livable. Advertising has one of the leading parts in the eternal drama of dollars. To it is directly due much of the multiplication of products and services which has come about during the last half century. It has smoothed the mechanics of existence made life easier and more pleasant by bringing countless necessities once considered luxuries within oui easy reach and into continuous use.
