Project Gravel in? for South Bend for 1931 Extension of Program for Another East and West Road Through Precinct The graveling program that will eventually connect Greenwood and Plattsmouth has taken another move toward completion with the filing of a petition signed by residenta of South Bend precinct, asking for a 2.2 mill levy in the precinct to ex tend an east and west road through sections 25, 26, 27, 2S, 29 and 30 in that precinct and running from the Louisville precinct line to the Salt Creek precinct line. Thi3 project will be effective in 1931 and will be the first for the coming year, assuring that South Band will have taken a very decided step forward in the establishing of a good surfaced road across the north part of the county and if the good work of the South Bend people is followed by the residents of Salt Creek should mean the realization soon of a all season roadway by the end of 1931 from Green wod to Plattsmouth. The road that it is proposed to grovel is located north of what is known as the church road or "Louis ville" road.

Count Shows Two Million are Out oi Estimate Made on Census Figures From All Eut 7 States; Ij (I Tj Cent. Washington, June 2 6. Census re turns covering one-fourth of the pop ulation of the country list 574,047 persons out of work, according to tabulation mado public by Census Di rector Sluart Thursday. This represents unemployment oi two per cent oi the population of the tenitory covered, which includes 750 counties in all but seven of the 4 8 states, together with 7(5 cities for which guies are not included in the counties. Thus, if conditions in the territory covered are representative of the na tion at large, linal figures would show in the neighborhood of 2,250,000 per sons out of work in the United States. Secretary of Commerce Lamont said that the figures "appear to be a lepitsentative sampiing of the coun try," aad added: Fair Sample. "The figures applied to the whole population would indicate u much less unemployment than was geneiall estimated. These unemployment "'figures also in clude normal unemployment of persons shifting from one job to another." "Since the time of this cen sus there has been the usual in crease in employment in various seasonal occupations." Unemployment in the cities was found to be three per cent of the population, and in the rural districts, 1.5 per cent. ( The figures apply, it was emphas i ized, to "persons having no job, al though able toJwork and looking for a job." Figures will be compiled later for those who had work, but were temporarily laid off or unem ployed for various reasons. Higher in Country. In New York state, the figures in clude five counties. In seven cities in these counties there were 6,677 unemployed in the raural districts, representing 1.9 per cent of the pop ulation. The counties and cities are not identified. Omaha Bee-News.

JAPAN'S STAND EXPLAINED Chicago The Rotarian world faced the east Thursday as his ex cellency. Prince Iyesato Tokugawa described the aims and ideals of Japan, his mother country, before the jubilee anniversary convention of Rotary Internationaly. Scion of a family which for two and one-half centures ruled the destinies of the land of the rising sun, the prince told Rotarians Japan was not inter ested in naval armament save as a means . piotecting her very exist ence, so dependent on 6ea-born com merce. More thaa 15,000 Rotarians heard hia describe Japan as a pea?e loving I'.-.ticn. "Japan cherishes no territoiial ambitions," he said, "and ha3 no intention of forcing any national policy upon her neighbors. But please remember, we are a people of the sea. That sea is our security. Japan needs a navy only large enough to defend her corner of the Pacific for upon it depends our national life." Balloting upon the presidential candidates and directors of interna tional Rotary was done Thursday but results will not, be announced until Friday.

In other words, hoc a we Ancric-.n-dried uo the supply of their capital, the outside world to a considerable degree wa- unnble to ccntiuue tho economic pace which it has been sot ting. Besides that, it brought :ni! lions of dollars' worth of gold bul lion to the United States in place of the commodities which would otherwise have been exchanged, :.i.(l this gold was locked up in bank vaults and disassociated from the credit structure. Mr. Lament says, of this part: "The gold inflow during the 15 months ended last October was ono major result of this marked decline in our capital exports. Tho tot: 1 in flow of gold during that period was $307,000,000, equal to about 3 per cent of the gold stock of the world. Delivered in this country, after it. had reduced the credit basis and pur chasing power of the outside world, the a'oid aryparently served no u ful purpose. It only enhanced our already large stock of 'fret? gold.' Ceitainly any practicable moans to lessen the fluctuations in the capital exports of our natiou should receive earnest attention." ' ' . Just why the sources of-American credit dried up in this fashion is not explained in tho present analysis. Mr. Lament, however, points to two previous huge fluctuations in the past, once in 1924 and again iu 1927. In both of these the changes ."mount ed to more than $500,000,0 00, but they were different from the 1929 phenomenon in that they both show ed an increase of American capital exports rather than a decrease, as at present. Changes in tiio foreign trade in commodities in 1929 "were not very significant" as regards aggregate values for the year as a whole, Mr. Lamont stated. In terms of quant ity both exports and imports "made new high records for all time." The study also reckons in the "in isiblo" items of the trade balance, in which sums spent abroad by tour ists and funds sent to the parent country by immigrants are shown to be getting "bigger and bigger."

He said that not more than a corporal's guard of the senate would vote for the treaty but for the influence of Senators Reed (rep., Pa.) and Robinson (dem., Ark.), who help ed to negotiate it.

It prohibits America from building the size ships and guns that America thinks is best for her own defense. "Takes U. S. Fower Away." "There is r.o way in the world for America, without naval bases, to ob tain naval parity with Great Britain in cruiser strength, except to have the larger ships and guns, and it is doubtful if it can be gotten that way. "It deprives America of the right and power to build a navy that will defend American possessions in the Far east, notably the Philippine is lands. All of our experts agree that we cannot defend the Philippine is lands on the basis of this treaty. "It prevents America from defend ing the greater part of our foreign trade on the high seas.
