would go farther west than Omaha.
Mr. Hay* said he did not believe

JAPS DEBATE IN DIET OVER ATTEMPT
TO KEEP ABREAST OF U.S. IN ARMAMENT
Tokio, Sept. 13.—There was a de­
bate in the Japanese diet recently
lietween Premier Hara and a repre­
sentative over the question whether
it was necessary for Japan immedi­
ately to expend a large sum in an
attempt to keep abreast of the Unit­
ed States in the building of warships
The discussion was briefly reported
I by cable at that time but the official
report of the speech delivered by
I hizo Hattori, who criticized the
action of the Japanese government,
in asking for a naval appropriation
' and the reply of Premier Hara per-
! niits of a more comprehensive pre­
sentation of the argument.
.Mr. Hattori interpellated the gov­
ernment asking whj’ It introduced
lhe present colossal estimates for
irmaments Into an extraordinary
--'on of the diet which was called
'iscuss only such matters as per­
mitted of no delay.”
The r< re
itlve quoted Adnii-
■Ni Koto, m’ttister of the navy, a*
having explained the "colossal esti­
mates’ by pointing to tho naval ex­
pansion scheme wbl h was b ing
pushed forward by a certain coun­
try. “By a 'certain country' pre­
sumably the navy minister meant
the United States,” said Mr. Hattori.
‘ "It must be remembered, however.
! that America is trying to expand her
Pacific squadron simply because she
misunderstands Japan.
"The Americans are laboring un­
der the mlsconsception that the Jap­
anese are a very dangerous people,
wedded to militarism and aggres­
siveness. Being absessed by this
mistaken notion, the.v are anxious to
complete their naval armaments
against all emergencies on the Pa­
cific. America has always been a
country which sets store by peace
and I do not believe the government
thinks that she is doing all this for
aggressive purposes.
“Supposing the present naval and
military estimates were

through the diet, though they ought

sinister intentions to the Japanese
