News Review of Current Events the World Over Japanese Rebels Slay Four Statesmen and Dictatorship Is Rumored—Hagood’s Removal Starts a Row— Vandenberg Won’t Enter Ohio Primary. By EiDWARD W. PICKARD ® Western Newspaper Union. AJILITARISTS of Japan, led by a group of young army offi cers who were Impatient with the government’s policy of economy ana restraint in the matter of ad vances 1 n China and Mongolia, sud denly staged a re volt In Tokyo with the avowed pur pose of eliminat ing liberal states men whom they considered obsta cles to the restora Emperor Hlrohito tion of a military dictatorship under imperial rule. Seiz ing certain government buildings in the capital, they rushed to the homes of the listed statesmen and succeeded In assassinating four— Premier Admiral Keisuke Okada; Admiral Viscount Makoto, former premier and lord keeper of the privy seal; Gen. Jotnro Watanabe, chief of military education, and Koreylko TakahashI, finance minis ter. Several others were wounded, and servants of all of them were killed. Emperor Hlrohito Immediately took charge of the situation, called a council of state and made Fumio Goto temporary premier. Martial law was proclaimed In Tokyo and the loyal army forces, largely out numbering the rebels, surrounded the latter in the buildings they had taken. Meanwhile the second fleet, also loyal, moved up to the mouth of Tokyo bay, its guns dominating the city. During the first day of the up rising an agreement was reached that the rebel troops should return to their barracks, but this they re fused to do. Then the censorship, temporarily raised, was clamped down again. Diplomatic quarters in Shanghai received a report that Gen. Sadao Arakl, former minister of war, has established a military dictatorship. He had been the most chauvinistic of all Japanese high army officers. Political observers in Tokyo be lieved that the emperor’s advisors would urge the right wing elements to be given a chance to form a cab inet, to see whether they would be able to conduct the government Even liberal political sources shared this belief, confident that such an experiment would pro duce a strong public reaction to the left, permitting early restoration of a normal government. C ENATE and house conferees patched up the new farm bill, substitute for the Invalidated AAA, both houses accepting the revised measure and It was sent to the White HOuse. Senator Borah ar gued in vain especially against the so-called “consumers”’ amendment which authorizes the “re-establish ment, at as rapid a rate as the sec retary of agriculture determines to be practicable and in the general public Interest, of the ratio between the purchasing power of the net In come per person on farms and the Income per person not on farms that prevailed during the five-year period August, 1900, to July, 1914.” Speaking of the extraordinary del egation of power to the'secretary of agriculture, Senator Borah said: “We are now asked to confer upon him a task which would require omnipotence. It is manifestly on the face 'of It an absurdity. "This idea that even by divine power you can go out and equalize the purchasing power of the pro ducer and equalize the purchasing power of the laborer, when above them both is a power which Is fixing a rule under which they live, is to me Inconceivable.” SUMMARY removal of MaJ. Gen. Johnson Hagood from his com mand of the Eighth Corps area be cause of his critical expressions concerning toe WPA and other Mew Deal activi ties stirred tip a pretty row In Washington. Gen. Malln Craig, chief of staff, signed the order to Hngood, by order of the sec retary of war and the President. The Republicans in con gress, backed op Gen. Hagood uj *vui uianvvu w* iuao auu suuic other Democrats, assailed the ac tion vigorously, and Senator Met calf of Bhode Island Introduced a lotion for an Inquiry Into the t on behalf of “free speech.” Breaking Its “usual rule of sl the War department made public a letter from General Craig to Secretary Dern, declaring Ha good’s record was “marked by re peated examples of lack of self control, Irresponsible and Intemper ate statements.” Hagood bad told a house subcom mittee that It was “almost Impossl ble” to get WPA’s “stage money” for "anything worthwhile.” These remarks, said Craig, “can only be characterized as flippant In tone and entirely uncalled for and de signed to bring ridlcple and con tempt upon civil agencies of the government.” Accusing him of “thinly veiled" opposition and “contempt” toward War department policies in the past, Craig pointed out as “con temptuous" "Hagood's references to CCO activities as “hobbles,” “col lecting postage stamps" and “tak ing an Interest In butterflies.” Seeking a quick settlement of the controversy, Senator Byrnes, Dem ocrat, and Representative McSwaln, Democratic chairman of the house military affairs committee, both of whom ball from Hagood's home state of South Carolina, arranged a conference with Secretary of War Dern. This had no result. SENATOR VANDENBCRG of Michigan has formally declined to enter the Ohio Presidential pri mary, but does not bar himself from consideration for the Republi can nomination. Writing to the Re publican state committee of Ohio, in reply to an inquiry as to wheth er be would run, Vandenberg as serted his “sole interest” In the Republican convention was that It should make “the wisest possible decisions respecting both party leadership and party policies.” To conform to Ohio law, the Bo rah forces have found the required “second choice.” This Is Frank E. Gannett of Rochester, N. Y., pub lisher of a chain of newspapers, who has agreed to fight alongside the Idaho senator for Ohio’s 52 delegates, to receive the votes of those pledged to Borah should the nomination of the latter be blocked In the convention. Mr. Gannett has expressed the belief that Borah is the one member of the party “most likely to recover the upstate New York vote,” and he also holds the view that the Idahoan would be the strongest candidate in the .agricul tural states. WHILE waiting for Instructions as to what to do in the matter of taxation, the members of the house—and many others—directed their attention to the investigation of the activities of the Townsend pension plan promoters. Speaker Byrns ap pointed on the probing committee of eight two avowed Townsend ltes—John H. To ian, Democrat, and . . _ samuei ju ^oinns, J. Jasper Bell Republican, b o t h from California. Tbe chairman Is J. Jasper Bell of Missouri, Democrat, author of the resolution for the In vestigation. It was understood that Mr.Bell bad already gathered a mass of Information to substantiate the charge that the Townsend plan has become a huge racket The leaders of both parties In congress have been getting rather nervous over the growth of the Townsend move ment and are glad to see It attacked; but some Impartial observers call attention to the fact that the way. the committee Is going after it smacks of unconstitutional abridge ment of the right to petition. It was expected that one of the first questions to be considered by the committee would be the salaries received by Dr. Francis E. Town send, author of tbe scheme, and B. E. Clements, former California real estate operator, co-founder and gen eral manager. Clements has re vealed to newspaper reporters that be and Doctor Townsend receive salaries of $100 a week each from OABP—the old age revolving pen sion organization—and $50 a week epeb from the Townsend national weekly, which claims a circulation of 250,000. It has been charged on tbe floor or the house that this newspaper, privately owned by Townsend and Clements, has a re serve fund of at least $200,000. UNEXPECTEDLY revolting against administration direc tion, the house voted down, 172 to 104, the bill to exempt from state and local taxation bank stocks held by the Reconstruction corporation. A similar measure passed the sen ate 38 to 28 the day before. The defeat was surprising because the measure bad been unanimously sup ported- by Republicans and Demo crats on the house banking com mittee. Democratic leaders ex pressed the belief that the measure would not be-revived. . . The legislation was written after the Supreme court held In a Mary land bank case that the stocks held by RFC were subject to taxation. Members of the banking committee said that If the states tax the hold ings the government agency stands to lose *5,500,000 /"\N THE ground that the seed loan requirements of farmers can be met from relief funds on hand, President Roosevelt vetoed the $50,000,000 crop production bill passed by congress. In his mes sage he called attention to bis bud get message urging that congress provide additional taxes If It en acted legislation Imposing charges not covered in the budget. He said he expected, last year, that such loans as the seed loan would be tapered off. He realizes they still are necessary but added: “I am fully convinced that the Immediate and actual need to which I have referred can be met during the year 1930 by an expend iture of funds materially less than that proposed In the bill under dis cussion.” OENATOR NYE of North Dakota ^ Is determined that the war prof its bill revised by his munitions committee shall be brought up for consideration at this session. In deed he more than threatens a fili buster to bring this about, If nec essary, to get the measure out of the hands of a finance subcommit tee which Is headed by Tom Con nally of Texas, one of Nye’s bitter est opponents. The Nye bill provides for stiff taxes on earnings and virtual con- | flscation of individual income above $10,000 a year In time of war. DEATH took from the scene two men prominent in national life —Albert Cabell Ritchie, governor of Maryland for four terms, and Hen ry Latrobe Roose velt, assistant sec retary of the navy and distant consln of the President. Mr. Ritchie was a leader among con servative Demo crats, from . the start a determined foe of national pro hibition, and In 1932 a candidate for the Presidential noml- A‘ C‘ nation by bis party. Though beaten out by F. D. Roosevelt, he had the satisfaction of seeing his repeal plank put Into the Democratic plat form. Of late he had been an out spoken critic of the New Deal pol icies, for be was a champion of state rights. Henry L. Roosevelt was the fifth member of his family to serve as assistant secretary of the navy, and In recent months he had played an increasingly Important part In the affairs of the department, act ing as secretary during the illness of Secretary Swanson. He was a student In the naval academy class of 1909, but-left before graduation to become a second lieutenant In the marine corps. In which service he rose to the rank of colonel. He was buried In Arlington National cemetery with full military rites after funeral ceremonies that were attended by President Roosevelt and many other high officials. GOV. EUGENE TALMADGE Is virtually financial dictator of Georgia, because the general assem bly did not enact an appropriation bill, but he is having his troubles finding funds to carry on. He de clared there was a “plan hatched In Washington” to hamper him, and ousted State Treasurer George Hamilton and Controller General William Harrison for refusal to honor treasury warrants. Hamil ton removed all the money from the treasury vault to a bank. Three state departments provided funds for temporary operation of fiscal affairs. Then depository banks, the Unit ed States post office and the state’s attorney general took a hand. Mall addressed to the suspended officers was Impounded, cutting off the flow of tax remittances; all but one of the depository banks refused to honor state checks pending a court decision on the legal status of de facto officials; and Attorney Gen eral M. J. Yeomans, once cited by Talmadge ns an authority for his actions, declured his position had been misinterpreted. MUSSOLINI had an ambitious plan for a five-power agree ment that would embrace Italy, Ger many, Austria, Poland and Hun gary. But when It was submitted to Hitler he declined to enter the combination. However, the relchs fuehrer. It Is said, told Mussolini that Germany looks with sympathy on the stand Italy has taken. Hitler pplnted out that Germany Is at present economically and mil itarily weak and needs a breathing spell to recruit her forces. He can not therefore do anything at pres ent that Is likely to draw the hos tility of France and Great Britain, but he will maintain an attitude of benevolent neutrality toward Italy. CAPT. ANTHONY EDEN, British foreign minister, stood up In the bouse of commons and warned the world that recurrence of the World war was Imminent and in his opinion could not be averted ex cept by a system of collective se curity "embracing all nations In an authority wjilch Is unchallenged and unchallengeaable.” Eden Impressed upon members of the parliament the difference be tween a policy of collective security and one of encirclement, such as the "ring of 81601" which Germany complains U being forged about her by France. “The British govern ment will have no lot or part la ★★★*****★★★*★★★**★ I STAR ! | DUST S * Movie • Radio * ★★* By VIRGINIA VALE*** PEOPLE who went to the opening of Charlie Chaplin’s “Modern Times” in New York are just beginning to recover from the mauling they got on the way in. Nobody who hasn’t faced one of the mobs that gather for these big movie open ings can Imagine what they’re like. Policemen try their best to force a way through for ticket holders; they ride their horses up on the sidewalk, t o push the crowd back, and It surges forward again. Ed die Cantor never did make it, that opening night, and —-neither did some of Paulette the other celebrl Goddard ties scheduled to attend. The Chaplin picture opened In Hollywood with quite as much excitement as the New York one aroused. Paulette Goddard was there, In the last row—she’s Char lie’s new leading lady, remember, and this was her first big picture. But she ducked out before It was over, to avoid being surrounded by enthusiastic friends. Probably felt that she’d rather wait and see what the critics had to say. ■—★— Everybody’s predicting that Twen tieth Century-Fox has the picture that will break all box office rec ords for 1936.

Nevertheless, he said he liked it. She was In Washington to attend the birthday balls—she went to six oj. them; thus she helped the balls, the picture she’s just finished with Fred Astaire, "Follow the Fleet,” and the Texas Centennial — she wore the coat of a naval officer’s uniform, and she’d recently been made an admiral in the Texas navy. She and her mother were received by the President before he went on the air, and remained In his study till It was finished. And RKO Is very proud of pretty Ginger. —★— It seems that Ed Wynn had a ter rible time trying to find some one to replace Graham McNamee on the new series of Wynn broadcasts. He won’t be able to say “Tonight, Gra ham, the program’s going to be differ ent,” because Gra ham works for NBC and doesn't want to leave. So o-o, they tried out a hundred candi- Ed Wynn dates, and finally John S.

It's hard to tell In advance how these famous comics will get over when they broadcast. Ed Wynn and Fred Allen are among the few who cau go on broadcasting and land In the first ranks when polls are tak en. Incidentally, Jack Benny Is pretty pleased over having won all the recent radio contests. Ralph Bellamy — remember him? —has a new five-year contract and Is glad to get back to the screen.

SLEEP: QUALITY, AND NOT QUANTITY, IS THE MEASURE “The traditional eight-hours' sleep requirement for adults, like all aver ages, is notably wrong In some cases,” W. E. Farbstein states in the American Magazine. “Recent research at the Univer sity of Chicago shows that eight hours of sleep Is really too much for the average person . . . “A series of observations in Ger many demonstrates that the quality of sleep is all Important. It was shown that a deep sleep of sis hours is more refreshing than a shallow sleep of eight. Also that one can train oneself to get enough sleep in four hours . . . “Jack McCarthy, the aged baker who died recently in Ireland, habit ually baked all night and hunted all day. His definition of sleep was, 'It's only a habit.’ He had reduced his sleep time to five or sis hours a week by a gradual cutting-down process over a period of many years. “The Patriarch of the Coptic church resident in Alesandria, Egypt, does not get much rest. If he falls asleep, he Is awakened, as a part of the sect's ritual, by his attendants every 15 minutes . . . “The Urubu Iudian tribes of Bra zil have the quaintest sleeping cus tom in the world.
