Show PLEASANT GROVE REVIEW 1 j . , r-T - I News Review of Current Events the World Over President Confers With Roosevelt and Congress Leaders Lead-ers on War Debts Hitler Offered German Rule Under Conditions. By EDWARD PICKARD Dr. Raymond Moley IJRKSIDKNT HOOVEH and Pre ident Elect Roosevelt held their scheduled conversation on the war debts In the White House Tuesday and exchanged views as to the wisest wis-est course for the United States government gov-ernment to pursue. The conference may have been of value to the two gentlemen but Its national or International Inter-national Importance Impor-tance Is questionable. question-able. Mr. Roose velt had no Inten tion of committing himself concerning the debt question or of assuming any responsibility In advance of his inauguration. Mr. Hoover can do nothing more than make a recommendation recom-mendation to congress in the matter mat-ter of reopening the debt settlements, settle-ments, and It Is practically certain that congress Is overwhelmingly opposed op-posed to reducing the debts or suspending sus-pending the payments. Besides Mr. Hoover and Mr. Roosevelt, there were but two persons per-sons admitted to the conference. These were Secretary of the Treasury Treas-ury Ogden Mills, who with Secretary Secre-tary pf State Stlmson had prepared i the data for the President ; and Dr. "Raymond Moley, professor of government gov-ernment and law In Columbia university, uni-versity, who attended as Governor Roosevelt's adviser. Doctor Moley. an authority on sociology and crime, was oneof the so-called "brain trust" that traveled with Roosevelt during the campaign, and It was he who assembled much of the material for the governor's speeches. There are those who policies and that Generul Kurt von Schleicher must be retained as minister of defense and Huron Kon-stantin Kon-stantin von Neurath as foreign minister. At this writing the outcome of the conference Is In doubt Hitler was still trying to get assurance of a majority In the roiehstag, but this seemed a feat almost Impossible, as Hugenburg's Nationalists and varl ous other relatively smal parties were holding out. R1 EDUCTIONS in the budget of pnroxlmately $rOO,0O().K)O, re quested of the cabinet by President Hoover have been met. The cuts in appropriations for the fiscal year beginning June 1 next were settled by the cabinet at about $7X).000,000. but It was explained that this would be . offset "by certain In creases In uncontrollable items. such. as Interest and amortization on the public debt and tax refunds to the extent of about $150,000.000. " - The White House statement said "the administration Is determined to present a balanced budget," and leaders of congress appear equally determined to keep down the regu lar appropriations at the short ses sion. congress Its rights to prescribe diversion di-version from Lake Michigan for navigation nav-igation purposes. The Mississippi Valley association has In the past Indorsed the St. Lawrence project, and It still does but It opposes the treaty In Its present form. think the professor will be the Colonel Colo-nel House of the Roosevelt administration. admin-istration. The President, as Is well known, favors action looking to revision of the war debt settlements, but knows congress would not sustain him In this position; so It was thought probable he would merely tell the-l debtor nations that the United States declines to suspend the December De-cember 15 payments and that there Is no Immediate prospect of reduction reduc-tion of the terms. However, It was believed In Washington that he would recommend to congress the re-creation of the war debt funding fund-ing commission for the purpose of making new settlements with the nations that might otherwise default de-fault This he tried to, have done in 1931 but congress declined, and It probably, will decline Again, which would mean the entire debt problem prob-lem would be passed on to the Incoming In-coming Democratic administration. WHAT did the President say to Fred Britten?' That was the question that was agitating the proponents pro-ponents of a bill legalizing beer. The wet congressman from Chicago admittedly ad-mittedly went to the White House In the hope of finding out what Mr. Hoover would do to such a bill if It were passed In the short session, and as he came forth he announced he was convinced that the President would not veto It. Rejoicings among the beer hoys 1 Then came swiftly Theodore Jos-llu, Jos-llu, one of the White House secre taries. with the fiat assertion to the newspaper men that "the President had declined to discuss beer with Mr. Britten.1' Cheers from the rirys ? Notified of this action on the part of the White House. Mr. Britten stuck by his guns, asserting that Mr Joslln knew nothing about what had been said during his conference with the.Presldent rind reiterated his pre diction that Mr. Hoover would approve ap-prove beer legislation. YOSUKE MATSUOKA.thesmooth, smiling representative of Japan In Geneva, appeared before the council coun-cil of the League of Nations and set forth his country's position In relation re-lation to Manchuria and China. In effect he defied the league and ridiculed ridi-culed the findings of the Lytton commission whose recommendation of the Internationalization of Man churia he declared unthinkable. "Establishment of the state of Manchukuo seems to be the only so lution possible," said Matsnoka In fluent English. "We have violated neither the covenant of the league. the nine-power treaty nor the pact of Paris. We acted In self-defense and spontaneously, and when we acted the Independence movement developed spontaneously." Matsuoka assured the council that China was a dismembered nation which was a prey to rival war lords and was menaced by communism. Had China or even Manchuria been properly governed, the present situ atlon would not have arisen, he said Wellngton Koo replied with elo quence and spirit for China. He charged that Japan had kept China In turmoil as part of a plan to con quer Asia and the world In success ive stages. Matsuoka bad com plained that Chinese boycotts were hurtful to friendly relations. Koo Inquired whether friendly relations still existed. He explained that the boycott was a self-imposed sacrifice and the most humane method of resistance re-sistance to aggression yet devised. Then he whipped forth a clear threat In behalf of the Chinese gov ernmeht to legalize, extend and pro tect the boycott The league council was helpless, for there was no chance for concili ation, so the whole affair was re ferred to the assembly of the league. Whatever the assemblys may do, the statements of Foreign Minister Uchlda and the war office In Tokyo make It plain that Japan Intends to maintain the status quo In Man churia.
