DENY UNCLE SAM AIDING CIA IN Rumors Published in Jap anese Newspapers Are Refuted by Ambassador Grew In Tokyo Statement TOKYO, Jan. 17 (AP) Charges that tbe United State was aiding China' war preparations against Japan were aired today In tbe Tokyo newspapers. Joseph C. a rew, the American am' bassador. Issued the following atste- ment: "BeKsrding rumors published in re rlous newspapers in Japan to the effect that understanding was rescn- d between the United States and China for supplying money, arms and munitions to China, the American embassy states emphatically there Is no understanding or agreement 01 this nature between the United States and China. There Is no basis what' ever of rumors which have been pub' llsbed. Including a rumor the United States arranged to loan the Nanking government 30,000,000 yen (nearly M.OOO.OOO)," ' Based on Statement, It was learned Ambassador Crew's denial was based on a recent state ment cabled by Secretary of State Stlmson. Simultaneously the Information bu zeau of the Japanese war office Issued this statement: "A supply of arms to China, espec ially to Chang Halao-Llang (com mander In north China), has been made principally ii.c United States and Oermany, Americans selling the Chinese airplanes and motor cars, mostly delivered In Shanghai, and the Germans delivering guns and machine un to Tientsin." It was learned the principal basis for the reference to Americans was that airplanes were sold the Rang chow aviation school and Shanghai was supplied with mall planes. Al legations that Americans were aiding China, emanated mostly rrom japa' nese correspondents In China, who frequently cabled that American loans were Imminent lor eitner uenerais Chiang Kai-Shek, tbe Chinese commander-in-chief, or Chang. Yankee Pilots Used. A foreign office spokesman said. "We have reliable Information that 40 American aviators, mostly non commissioned officers of the active list, were Instructing Chinese In South China." He declined to give the source of this Information or to amplify fur ther, beyond saying the recently ac quired ability of the Chinese to fly In formations was evidence of foreign instruction. Confronted with a statement that none of the Chinese Hanchow school Instructors were In active American military service, the spokesman atuck to his story. The spokesman ssld Americans and other foreigners were fully within their rights in selling arma and In structing the Chinese, therefore the Japanese newspaper reports that Ja pan was contemplating a protest to Washington were "ridiculous." Meanwhile, Hachlro Arlta, vice minister of foreign affairs, and other Japanese dignitaries, foreign ambas sadors and other diplomats attended the American community's memorial services for the late President Calvin Coolldge in Holy Trinity church. Am bassador Grew delivered a eulogy.

In spite of the fact that some folks con sidered It a very unlucky day, the new officers, without exception, car ried on the business like old-timers. A particularly noticeable fact was that the officers and members were all there on time, In fact, ahead of time, which caused a look of con sternation upon the faces of the past- master present. They immediately started an In vestigation and found that, In their estimation at least, the cause of this unoaual condition was that the meet ing was to be preceded by a chicken supper prepared by the ladles of the H. B. committee. The new master, Edwin Taylor, did not say that this was to be a regular event, but the Interest shown by the visitors and members In the next regular meeting created a suspicion In the minds of some. W. A. Johnson, organiser for Jose phine county, together with the mas ters and some members from Jose phine Oranges were present and spoke highly of the Ifflclent manner In which the meeting was conducted. ,Tbe master appointed the following members on standing committees: ways and means Leon Offen baoher, Jack O'Brien, Olen Smith.

The watch party at the Orange hall New Year's eve turned out to be a surprise birthday party for Mrs. Sarah E, Hewlett, who celebrated her 85th birthday. Her Orange friends pre sented her with a beautiful cyclamen plant, and an enormous birthday cake, which was decorated with the . liame "Mother", In her honor. Games were played and all enjoyed tbe evening. The following verses, composed by Mrs. Nora Harris, were read In honor to tbo dear old lady, who Is always mother to everybody: Here's to one Who's been with us for years, Who has shared all our Joys, Our sorrows and tears; Who has given to many of her boun teous store And has ne'er turned one hungry away from her door. In fact, we've been told that her bountiful dinners Draw the rich and the poor, the saints and the sinners. She's lived eighty-five years, giving no thought to self, And for, that very reason, she's not laid on the shelf. We call her "Ma Howlett' and lent It true, She'd mother the whole world with out much ado. To some life Is play, to others It's shirk. But bellev me, to Ma Howlett, It's get down and work; But then work to her Is nothing but play, So she's up and doing at the dawn of each day; She's a Jack of all trades, sees what Is to do From roofing a house to mending a shoe. You might hunt the world over, you'd find none to compare With this wonderful woman, who could and would dare, In her eighty-fifth year, she's as young and as gay, As the child who was born on her mother's birthday; So here's to Ma Howlett, give her three rousing cheers, Who's done much for this world in her eighty-five years; And three cheers for Hattle, that daughter who's true Who Is genial and chatty, even tho' things do look blue.
