' M the British delegate that Great
Britain habitually couW not recognise
import certificates because of scandals

drags often were diverted oa the
" 'way to the country of parehaae and
' forwarded to other destination where
they were used for illictt purjmses
and illicit f sin thna bringing a stain
oa the name of Great Britidn which
permitted the export .
John Campbell representing India
took a similar stand which caused the
Japanese delegates to remark sar-
castically that India seemed clearly
tiawter the dominion of England. The
Japanese introduced a revolution pro-
i MWg that tne importation expona-
' tie and transshipment of opium should
- "k aothoriaed when accompanied by a
certificate issued by competent au-
' thoriries. It declared that the su-
' taoritle of all ports shonM strictly
' abstain from any unfair discrimination
I the ground of nationality of a ve-
.ad or toe origin of the goods.
'"t The Japanese contended- that when
a -they tried to transship opium at Hong
Kong the British authorities hiter-
: fared and prevented re-exportation.
. They held this was an attack on Jap-
"aneee good faith which could not be
tolerated.
L Today Sir Malcolm Delevingne in-
slated on Great Britain's right to in-
r vestigate all opium exportstiona. even
If they were accompanied by official
certificates.
Publicly admitting that it was Jap-
' .aaose officials who were implicated in
the opium twandals Mr. Sugimura
the chief Japanese delegate today
: amid teoxe ilence. read a statement
ia which be declared that nations are
often blind to theirwn faults but
' i quick to nee the drfeels in others. He
added that no international accord
. ' was powible when mutual confidence
was lacking; hence he regretted that
. Japan could sign no accord arranged
'. In Genera.
The import certificate system Mr.
- Sugimura pointed oxit. bad been insti-
tuted under the direction of tbe
League of Nations and Japan would
insist to the bitter end on it being
heed np to.
"This is the first time in the history
of the League of Nations" Mr. 8ugi-
' mora declared in stentorian tones
'' "that any nation has cast in oar teeth
'.' tbe reprehensible incident inrolving
Japanese officials who were ade-
quately punished. We are a nation of
' . the Samurai and to us honor is more
than all. Tou are fashioning here a
. . system based on suspicion instead of
on love and confidence.
"From the very beginning we Jap-
anese have been pessimistic about the
results and now we prefer to declare
before tbe whoje world why we are
unable to reach an agreement and to
f leave to public opiuion tbe task of
. reaching an equitable agreement later
. on."
In making his allustion to Great
Britain. Mr. Sugimura concluded dra-
- matH-ally:
"When all nationa are able to see
themselves in the looking glsHS we
may attain real international co-operation."

much hinges on the fight from their
'standpoint. There Is ao definite indi
cation yet aa to bow many democrats

In addition to talk of a Possible
battle over bouse rules there is con-
siderable bussing about the cnpitol
now over the places of power in senate
and bouse. Tbe campaigns are al
ready under way.
There ia keen Interest in the race
for the place of majority leader in tbe
senate vacant through the death of
SenatorLodge. .- There are two can
didates for tbe position. 8enstor
Wedswortn of New Tork and Sena-
tor Curtis of Kansas. The former
Carrie! large support from the East
the latter counts on Western aid.
Wadsworth seems to bsve the edge
and his election is predicted st the
eapltol. Senator Borah of Idaho ia
among those working for him.
Tbe young senator from ivew ion
is making s strong ffght counting on
tha nosition to help him in his race
for re-election two years hence when
he probably will be opposed by Gov-
ernor Al Smith of New Tork who
has bis eyes on tbe senstorsbtp.
Curtis has support from soma
Western senators. There is talk now
of a deal between bim and Senator
Moses of New Hampshire whereby
Moses would swing such Eastern sen-
ators ss he can to Curtis for the floor
leader's position in exchange for the
support of the Kansss senator for
president pro tern of the senate in the
new conn-ess. which Moses wants.
Cummins now president pro tern will
not run for the position in the new
congress. If the strength of Wads-
worth appears too formidable Curtis
may drop from the race snd stand for
president pro tem next December.
In tbe house there are three candi-
dates' to succeed Gillette aa speaker.

The chamber also asked lor exten-
sion of the budget system a continua-
tion of the principles embodied in the

The Howell-Barklev bill proposing
abolishment of the railroad labor
board was assailed as a "long stsp

"Sucb statistics should be distrib-

the members.
"The ststistics should be made as
available by a trade association to tbe
public and government agencies as to

waterways that congress be asked to
detail L'nlted States army engineers
to make "a comprehensive survey of
the waterways of the country as a
whole in their relation to other trans-
portation agencies and to recommend

a misleading term. But Burberrys are
English in every detail fabric design

ENGLAND "Bur
berry" means "over-
i- coat" as clearly as
"Kodak" means "camera'
in America. It takes time
and a tradition of skilled
workmanship for a name to
reach such a point
That is why Burbrrys
already had an enviable
reputation when they were
first imported here twenty-
one years ago.
