What they were secretly aiming at was the meeting of the privy council In Toklo. That council Is a group of elder statesmen, some ti nice accu rately described ns old mossbacks who advise the emperor. They were Just getttni; ready to advise him about naval policy. No one had any hope that the?c old boys would recommend a change In Japanese policy. But It was thought that strong words might might have some moderating effect on them. That is the only reason Davis spoke. Mr". Davis told the Japanese the same thing In private many times at London. Tlvy wouldn't believe him. Also, 'they seem to have an idea that our congress will revolt one of these days against big navy ex penditures. While Mr. Davis delivered the speech, he was not the sole author of it.

(AP) A one dollar bill pinned to a post rsrd has been received , at the White House, The card read: "If you receive the dollar that has been pinned to the card then confidence In God has been re stored and love of money Is vanishing." A contributing reason for the speech was the fact that our officials were worried about current Japanese propaganda in this country. Ambas sador Saito's recent speech here, the articles published here tinder the name of former Premier Salto of Ja pan and the general propaganda out of Toklo made it appear that Japan's security wan menaced by the Ameri can and British navies. The propacamla apparently fooled two United States senators into issu ing comments regarding a compro mise with the Japanese.
