Shortly after an official govern- ment spokesman had indicated a dis- tinct modification of policy toward China, Gen. Sugiyama, minister of war, told the house of representatives & tremendous increase in the soviet army in Asia necessitated the Jap- nese army's replenishment program. The Japanese forces, the war min- ister declared, were decidedly inferior to the soviet’s far eastern army, which he said now totalled 15 divi- sions. Simplify Recruiting - At the same time the country’s war authorities decided to abolish complicated recruiting regulations and empowered the war minister to lay down simple rules to secure addi- tional man power whenever a short- age of recruits occurs. Military powers also decreed re- laxation of physical standards for the fighting forces in order to pro- vide sufficient personnel. The modification of the Chinese policy was believed to have been brought about, in part, by the stead- ily growing strength of the Nanking central government. The spokesman indicated the com- promise government of Senjuro Unperturbed by defense charges that she was married 12 years ited ago in Roanoke, Va.

Read Irrigation Bill Backers of the irrigation proposal obtained an immediate reading in the house of the amendment rewriting the entire water conservation bill and then sought to obtain an immediate favorable xecommendation of the bill from the fommittee of the whole house, “Why is the appropriation raised from $50,000 to $500.00 ” demanded Rep. Edwin Traynor of Ramsey. “This bill would make this appropriation and then authorize the issuance of $3,- 000,000 in bonds—a direct obligation to the state for interest and principal.” “I realize the situation is bad due to drouth and something must be done to help the state back on its feet, but 1 want to bring out the seriousness of bonding the state for $3,000,000 “Fourteen years ago we bonded the state for $3,000,000 to construct the State mill and ¢élevator,” Traynor de- clared. “There has been $2,423,000 in in ti of at tal nd at taxes ‘levied on the people and still practically the entire three million dollars is left to be paid so in this bond issue and appropriating $500,000 in addition we are starting something. Twichell Seeks Delay Arguing on the substitute motion of Rep. L. L. Twichell that the com- mittee defer action unutil amend- ments were printed in the journals and members had. time to study the Proposal, Traynor said this “should not be forced through.” One of the sponsors of the measure, Rep. Oscar Hagen said “I realize the gentleman from Ramsey is worked up over this big bill and has a right to be. The bill was drawn from the Montana law and has incorporated best features from many Irrigation requirements in other states.” “It sounds like a lot of money,” agreed Hagen, “but it is not an ap- propriation in one sense of the word ‘but an investment in the future pro- tection of North Dakota. It will bring in money many times $500,000 in fed- eral work and North Dakota should take advantage of this. Too Big For Debate He contended then “the bill is too big for general discussion in the house and has been studied by people gen- erally familiar with the work—we got the best authority and advice pos- sible?” Hagen drew fire from Twichell who shouted “I didn’t think any bill too big for discussion in the house. “As for the advice the bill backers obtained.” Twichell said, “the lawyers came to me in the state affairs com- mittee to see if the title was right.” “It was right though,” countered Hagen. “Yes, but they didn’t know it,” Twichell replied, and added the money was intended to be raised in the of the cut 19 ‘the boys be legislated out of jobs,”|got the money — they can irrigate added Cain laugh. 4 recodify of @ lack of | Twichell said “that w: themselves instead of spreading the the | cost over the entire state.” tax| Proponents contended it was in- of tended to it all back” and ‘as so with the Was | mill and elevatbr, too.” Godwin Supports Act “pay “This is the most important piece of |: failed by a| legislation this assembly will have to Benson, pass on and if North Dakota does not M, | develop a water conservation program but continues on the drouth and non- productive basis the state must be- come a desert and cease to exist,” declared Majority Floor Leader W.

Godwin who said there “is no valid objection to this bill.” *| “This Hayashi was willing to abate its de- mands for simultaneous settlement of all pending Sino-Japanese incidents and negotiate separate settlements for each, Had Linked) Questions Until now, Japan has insisted the general question of her relations with China be linked with the settlement. The Japanese press, as an indica- tion of the changed attitude, went even further to predict the govern- ment would withdraw all demands on China except for downward adjust- ment of tariffs. For this, however, the press stated, Japan was willing in return to take measures to suppress smuggiing into north China by her nation, one of the gravest of China's economic dif- ficulties. more than they do now before casting their vote,” said Twichell in support of his motion to defer action. Democratic Floor Leader L. R. Bur- gum of Stutsman agreed while there may be an element of gambling in in- vesting in irrigation we “ought to take the risk and make an investment in the experiment in North Dakota.” “But I can see- the position the house is placed in in bringing in a Jong bill and driving it through and it would be well to defer action so as not to have the appearance of driv- ing the bill through the house by main force,” explained Burgum. Await Printed Copies After some discussion of when the last day for passing house bills over to the senate falls the vote was 43 to 33 for deferring further consideration until Monday Fhee printed copies of the 28-page afhendment to the water conservation bill will be available for all members. Also deferred was action on the house bill to appropriation of $3,000,- 000 for direct relief by the state pub- lic welfare, board during the next biennium when objections were made to _the way the bill was drawn. Traynor said he felt the bill was “unnecessary”’ since the appropria- tion for the public welfare board would be set aside in the same tax bill after “committees from the sen- ate and the house decide what is going to be done.” He said he “un- derstood” the administration is work- ing out a program which would come through the senate. 16 Bills Reading of the lengthy irrigation bill amendment and consideration of numerous other amended bills in gen- eral orders set the house back on its schedule and following the indefinite postponement of 14 bills on commit- tee report the house moved into a night session to take up 16 bills ready for final passage. Indefinitely postponed in the house was ® measure authorizing the state to issue certificates of indebtedness on uncollected taxes. A similar meas- ure permitting issuance of the cer- tificates on delinquent taxes for the years 1932 to 1936, inclusive, is pend- ing in the senate. Also postponed were measures which would have established the office of the state food commissioner and chemist as separate from the regulatory department and permitting the publishing of personal property on the calendar for final passage.
