JAPAN SHES W BEING ANERCANZE 21.—(?)—Takanobu the most widely aroused Tokyo, Feb. Murobuse, one of read publicists of Japan, nation-wide interest wi article at Japan, like the rest ion, has fallen under the domination of American gold, Amer- ican power and American ideas. The article is a jeremiad on the Americanization. of the world and forms the conclusion that Japan, at least, is slipping steadily downhill under the yoke. “We all admit that the American dollar is the most powerful factor in the modern world,” he wrote, “but there are many who do not realize that America, master of the gold and power, is also making the world’s ideas. These ple still cherish the illusion that Europe is the center of art, civilization and culture. But look around you. What of our present day life in Japan is not American, rather than European? What is the Maru- nouchi Build (Tokyo’s greatest modern office building)? “What are these sports, this mod- ern journalism, motor cars, jazz, ra-. dio, popular literature, all these ideas about rights of women, the spread of irreligion, the decline of | philosophy, the mania for gold? All these we have taken from America. American ideas control the world in all phases of civilization. Europe still holds American culture in’ con- tempt, and most Japanese ape Ei rope in this respect, without real ing that we are all America’ materially and intellectually.’ And all to no good end, says Mr. ils the decline of the genteel civilization of the nine- teenth century, the passing of aris- tocratic society, the coming of mass $ production, mass thinking, mass liv- " ing. In all the degeneration he d Scribes, the world is tal from the United States, t! type” of the new age of 3 materialism. English Girls Find U.S. Girls Serious London, Feb. 21.—(#)—One of the chief impressions brought back from America by the members of the girls debating team who have just com- pleted a series of contests with Amer- ican colleges is that they surprised Americans by revealing that English People have a sense of humor. ¥' Three girl graduates chosen by the National Union of Students con- stituted the English team.

Lindbergh has been ap- Pointed technical adviser to the aeronautics branch of the commerce department. Whiting, in announcing the appointment and Lindbergh’s ac- jceptance, said today that the fiyer's entrance into the government service | ‘would not keep him permanently in King Alexander of Yugoslavia . . . he’s a hero to his soldiers and relies on them for support of his bold step in declaring himself supreme dictator. London, Feb. Alexander of Yugoslavia, who has just burst into the world news as the first king of modern times to proclaim himself an absolute dictator in these Gays of democracy, is, with the story of himself, his family and his country, @ regular figure in a Zenda romance about the Balkans. Sir Anthony Hope in his most fertile moments of invention never excelled what has actually happened in the life of Alex- ander and his forebears. Even Hope and George Barr Mc- Cutcheon, when they went out for a hero, made him of very princely birth and origin and of very ancient line- age. But the Karageorgeovitch dy- nasty, to which Alexander belongs, is the veriest parvenu, the uttermost utter new rich among all the royal lines of Europe. A Fighting Swineherd ‘The founder of the house of Kara- georgeovitch, in the beginning of the nineteenth century, was a simple Serbian peasant swineherd. He knew ®@ lot about hogs. He was a two- fisted, fighting he-man and he hated the Turks who had lorded over his country since the battle of Kossovo His name was George Petrovitch, but when he became a rebel against Turkish tyranny both his country- men and the Turks labeled him “Black George,” because of his sullen and savage disposition. In 1804, Black George gathered the peasants together and led them in revolt. In four years he almost freed his country from the Turks, and a native parliament elected him hered- itary ad and “hospodar” of the Sent Head to Sultan In 1817, Black George was assas- sinated by’ Turkish agents in the town of Semendria, his head being sent as a ghastly gift to the Sultan in Constantinople. A rival peasant clan, that of Milosh Obrenovitch, seized the power in 1858 and Peter Karageorgeovitch, grand- son of Black George, spent his time abroad: as.an extie.. His son, Alex- ander, the present King, was in 1888. The boy was brought up with no expectation of ever holding a throne. So Alexander was sent to school in House Body Favors One Cent Increase in Gasoline Taxes Favorable action on the Horner 0 line tax, the added money to go to the counties, was taken by the house state affairs committee today. The bill also would licenge dealers in gaso- line, funds so acquired to go to the performed by hair dressers and would permit an applicant. to be registered as a barber after three years service as apprentice. 21.—(NEA)—King !Geneva and afterwards went to St. Petersburg, where he -tudied law and was also in the corps of pages at the court of the Czar. : In 1903, all the civilized world was startled by a deed of horrible bar- barity. King Alexander Obernovitch and his Queen, Draga, were the mon- archs of Serbia. But they were hated aeeaca played in, the Balkans, by purposes pla: in the ans by the great powers, they favored the Austrian side. One night a band of army officers invaded the palace in Belgrade and murdered the King and queen in their bed. Peter of the Karageorgeovitch house was called to the throne. Ousted Crown Prince this crime. Peter himself indignantly dented any knowledge or complicity in it. Even with Peter on the throne, Prince Alexander did not expect to be king. But again fate intervened. His brother, Prince George, was one of the wildest men in Europe. His escapades were so notorious that even the Serbian stomach revolted and he was compelled in 1909 to abdicate all pretensions to the throne. Alexander was made Crown Prince, and in 1912, during the war of the Balkan nations against Turkey, he became a national hero. In command of the First Serb army, he captured Kumanovo, being himself in the thick of the fighting. In the following year, when Serbia had a war with her former ally, Bulgaria, he again won notable victories. Hero of the War ‘When the great war broke out, he was in command of all the Serbian armies and four times drove the Aus- trians out of his country. It was only when Bulgaria entered the war on the side of the Central Powers that he knew defeat. His armies were at- tacked from the north by the Aus- trians and from the east by the Bul- garians. There then began the won- derful retreat through the mountain fastnesses of Albania in which Alex- ander suffered: all the hardships of: his men. King Alexander's main strength still lies with the soldiers and it is upon the army that he relies in his present bold step. _ NONE O’ THAT First Author: You remember tat article I wrote some time ago in waich I mentioned the Nugget Cigaret?
