Japan's Stand on
Armament Based
On Coast Lines
Premier llara Discusses Willi
Frankness Issues' at Coming
International Conference
In United States.
By CHARLES DAILEY.
t'hlrago Tribune Cable Coii;.rlitlil. lflSI.
Tokio, Oct. 30. The Tribune's
correspondent has secured an impor
tant interview with Premier Hara of
Japan, who discussed frankly the
Washington issues. Owing to the
fact that the premier speaks no Eng
lish, the questions were submitted in
writing and his answers were trans
lated into English. ihe interview
was submitted to the cabinet before
it was returned to the correspondent
Therefore it represents the full view
of the government and indicates that
Japan's stand on disarmament will be
based on coast lines and the problems
which it involves rather than on pop
luation, revenues ' or other angles
which have been susruested.
Q. What are Japan's aims at the
conference?
A. Japan accepted President
Harding's invitation, prompted solely
bp a strong desire to bring about
thorough and harmonious co-opcra
tion with the United States and other
powers and to "make whatever con
tribution it can toward the realiza
tion of the lofty ideals the president
had in view in calling the conference.
No nation is more vitally interested
than Japan in the maintenance of
peace in the Pacific and the tar east.
Based on Coast Lines.
Q. Should disarmament be based
on population or what method should
govern an equitable reduction?
A. Japan sincerely hopes an out
spoken exchange of views on the sub
ject of disarmament, as well as the
Pacific and far eastern problems,
may result in a furtherance of a good
understanding among: the . powers
concerned and in the recognition of
the legitimate interests in each power
represented at Washington.. At the
same time Japan believes that an
equitable reduction should be based
on a sole consideration of national
security, having due regard not mere
ly to the area or population, but to
the length of the littoral lines, the
geographical or topographical condi
tions, etc., of the country in question,
Q. Would a status quo of the pres
ent navies be acceptable, or should
some other proportion be reached,
either by further building of cer
tain navies or reducing of others?
A. Whether a status quo is ac
ceptable or some other proportion
should be arranged depends entire
ly on whether the existing ratio is

necessitated by requirements of na
tional defense, as the paramount
duty of the navy oi this or any
other country should be the protec
tion of the nation against possible
foreign aggression. Japan is pre
pared to accept reduction ot her
navy if. and so lone as. the exigen
cies of its national defense are
thereby duly satisfied.
Q. To what extent should forti
fications in the Tacific be reduced
as a guarantee to peace?
A. The Pacific fortifications should
be reduced in accordance with the
same considerations as indicated be
fore. Q. Are not economic and similar
questions the basis of all armaments
and should not these be settled first;
China and the far eastern republic
having refused negotiations, what is
the best method of adjusting the
Shantung and Siberian questions;
with these questions disposed of,
what other questions disturb the
peace of the Orient and what is
the best means of adjustment?
A. The Japanese are- firmly con
vinced of the justice in their case
in the Shantung question. No ef
fort has been and will be spared
on the part of Japan to settle this
question to our mutual satisfaction,
it being our constant hope that Chi
na will embark on negotiations in
a conciliatory spirit and settle this
question once and for all on the con
ditions laid down in our recent com
munications. As to Siberia, Japan
is still in the course of .negotiations
with the far eastern republic and it
is expected that a definite settle
ment will be arrived at before long.
Buffalo County Farmers'
Bureau Urges Corn as Fuel
Kearney, Neb., Oct. 30. (Special.)
Farmers of Buffalo county have
been advised by the farm bureau not
to buy any more fuel during the
course of the winter than is abso
lutely necessary. It is recommended
that farmers burn such fuel as is
available about -the premises, rather
than buy coal in face of the present
high transportation charges. "Burn
such fuel as is available, even though
it be necessary to burn corn," the
recommendation suggests. How
ever, there is little likelihood of any
corn being used for fuel, nearly all
farmers having arranged to feed low
priced corn.

Pressure Behind
Tax Revision Bill
Eases in Senate
Negotiations Looking to Agree
ment for Date for Final
Vote Fall Through Two
Amendments Pasted.
Washington, Oct. 30. Pressure
behind the tax revision bill eased off
perceptibly in the senate after
it had become apparent that there
was mull prospects of a final vote
before the middle of next week.
Negotiation between the majority
and the minority looking to an agree
ment for a day for a final vote fell
through. Later democratic leaders
estimated that the bill might be
pasted by Wednesday or Thursday.
Some senators on the majority side
thought the vote would come by
Tuesday, while there were other es
timates that it might be delayed un
til Saturday.
"We have now broken the hack of
the movement to force this bill
through without proper considera
tion," said Senator Simmons of
North Carolina, democrat.
Only two amendments were dis
posed of today. Under one change
adopted on motion of Senator Kced,
democrat, Missouri, income tax re
turns would be open to inspection
ly direction of tiilier hnue of con
grrt. I'lidrr enisling law, thry are
opened for inspection only on orders
of the president,
Senator Keed launched his fiiihl
for the soldiers' bonus which he ha
proposed shall be paid out of funds
obtained by continuing the encrss
profits tax. He declared hit amend
ment was designed "to pay the
bonus from the profit of the war
profiteers,"
"1 am only taking the fund," he
said, turning to the republican,
"that you propose to throw away
and leave in the hands of the prof
iteers. You can put this money in
the hands of the soldiers and not
seriously affect the fiscal policy of
the government. That answers all
rrguments raised against the bonus
by the president's letter."
Reading the message of President
Harding and the letter of Secretary
Mellon opposing the bonus at pres
ent. Senator Reed charged that" it
was the republican plan to "kill" the
bonus bill.

HEALTH is too biff, too vital, too
elastic for any bottle to hold it. Yet
health can be bought in the market
place. But you must go to the right place
for it. Nature, in cooperation with the
prune growers of California, has health
ready for you at your nearest . grocers.
Why are prunes so essential to good
health and right living? Why has Nature
in her wisdom singled out prunes as the
fruit-food that keeps you fit through
natural means?
Is it because their high sugar content
gives you quick-to-use energy? Is it be
cause they are rich in tonic iron and
other mineral and ' 'vitamine' ' elements?
Is it because they contain certain salts
and acids that improve the quality of the
blood and help to "balance" the diet?
