Sensible Japanese have forgotten all that, and sensible Americans know that Japan had real cause for complaint in that matter. Count Witte, from Russia, bamboozled this country almost as completely as Balfour did, later. Perhaps open war between Governor Roosevelt and former Governor Smith of New York, is not far away. Both governors are candidates for the next Democratic nomination, year.

Above all, Washington would now impress, on the .country that critical illness requires courageous and not always pleasant treatment. That, it is felt here, must be thoroughly realized.

Domestically, his major recommendation is for the $2 -000,000,000 (billion) reconstruction finance corporation. It would supply credit to railroads banks and various Industries which are cut off from normal sources of working funds. He has proposed adding $100,000,000 to the capital of the federal farm land bank to cope with mortgage foreclosures. He lias proposed a system of home discount banks to ease the burdens of mortgaged home owners. Congress is pushing these measures. Leaders in both parties subordinating ordinary politics, are cooperating. There is a general conviction in congress. regardless of party, that the administrations recovery measures must be supported. Legislation is not regarded anybody here as a cure-al- l. It is regarded as an aid, as something which will prowls the most needed machinery for the use of private business in getting its wheels speeded up. Whether these measures help will on the effort of business itself.
