BY T. MIYAOKA Former Japanese Minister Addresses Rotarians on World Recovery. Speaking generally on the subject of world economic recovery, but tak- ing occasion to digress to the timely matter of naval limitatiens, Tsune- Jjiro Miyacka, former Japanese Min- ister to the United States, yesterday voiced vigorous denial that his coun- try is planning an exorbitant naval building program or that it anticipates a war on this side of the Pacific Ocean. Mr. Miyaoka was speaking before about 250 members of the Rotary Club, assembled for their weekly luncheon meeting. He is interna- Lional director of Rotary, and is now on his way to a meeting of these directors in Chicago. Interpretation Decried. ‘The speaker decried the interpre- tation which has been placed upon Japan's decision not to renew the naval treaty upon its expiration next year, declaring that such a decision does not constitute an abrogation. After expressing himself most em- phatically on the subject of naval treat! Mr. Miyaoka declared that entirely too much controversy is being stirred up on the matter and turned his attention to the economics of world recovery. This, he said, is LATRAVIATA' DATE Grand Opera Engagement Will Be First in Con- stitution Hall. pendent to a great extent upon a return of the major nations of the world to the gold standard. The fashion of going off it, followed by both Japan and the United States, was unfortunate, he said. Now in Law Practice. In addition to serving as Minister to the United States many years ago Mr. Miyaoka was appointed by President Coolidge in 1928 as the American non-national member of the Permanent International Com- mission provided for in a treaty be- tween this country and Uruguay for the advancement of peace. More recently, he has been engaged in the practice of law in Japan. Dr. Chester D.

Bill Introduced With Apology for Own Opposition Tells House of Measure to Raise $2,000,000,. 000 for Farmers. By the Associated Press. A bill and an apology were placed before the House yesterday by Rep- resentative Burdick, Republican, North Dakota. Introducing what he called a “farm- ers emergency relief bill at the request of a number of constituents, farm and labor organizations,” he hastened to explain that he was not necessarily in favor of any or all its provisions. “Are you apologizing?” one of his colleagues asked. “I mean to say I am personally opposed to some of the provisions,” the North Dakotan responded. The measure, sponsored by an or- ganizafion called the United Farmers, would repeal the farm adjustment act and appropriate $2,000,000,000 to be used for the benefit of farmers. The money would be raised by high in- heritance and gift taxes and boosting the levy on incomes of more than | $5,000. HOOVER TO .BE SPEAKER Will Address G. W. Alumni Luncheon January 19. J.

BATON ROUGE, January 10.— Hundreds of Louisiana citizens were pledged today to march on Louisi- ana’s capital this month. unless Huey Long’s dictatorial laws ere repealed. Gathered last night for a mass meeting of the Square Deal Asso- ciation, angry people denounced Lo dictatorship as taking from them “our jobs, our families, our in- dependence to act and think, to wor- ship even.” Session is Demanded. ‘The association, at its organization meeting January 6, demanded that Gov. O. K. Allen call & session of the Legislature by January 16 to repeal the dictatorial laws under which the Senator has taken absolute control of Louisiana. “No one wants blood on his hands,” shouted Ernest Bourgeois, association president. “But if the Legislature is not called to meet by the time set in our ulti- matum, come to Baton Rouge en masse—come in so great numbers that the city cannot hold you, and we will see whether there is a legislator who cannot be made to do the right thing!” Warns of Bloodshed. “If any attempt is made to stop this organization there will be more bloodshed than this State has seen in its history,” declared Chester P. St. Amant of Baton Rouge. Although Long was many miles away, his $5000,000 skyscraper capi- tol, a few blocks distant from the pro- test meeting here, was carefully guarded by State highway police and State police.
