II inder Sir Stafford Cripps went
21 int of India ended in stark
needy. Failure of the parley

. lisordrrs and bloodshed. At
Osin iwt time the conference was
Nought to a precipitous end
1M1 vhen the Indians perhaps foi-

niwisf an offer for bargain-

statement Is particularly encour-
aging because next to Mahatma
Gandhi ho is the greatest political
figure in India.
The conferees now have de-
ported to think things over and
see what further moves can be
made. Wo are left to guess the
cause of the Simla breakdown
but it may bo assumed that it
came as the result of the demand
of the Moslem league headed by
the brilliant Mahomed All Jinnah
fnr a wholly independent Moslem
state (Pakistan.) The Moslems
want this because they fear the
Hindus who outnumber them
three to one. On the other hand
the all-India congress which is
comprised largely of Hindus has
been equally insistent cm the es-
tablishment of a federal govern-
ment built along the lines of the
United States. The British Rave
supported tho federal idea.
There has been a long rbaln
of failures to reach agreement.
In the past the Indians have
charged that England had no
real desire to grant Independ-
ence and that she was pursuing
a policy of "divide and rule
by keeping the Hindus and Mos-
lems at loggerheads. Whatever
may have been the degree ef
truth in this charge there cer-
tainly has been no Indication
In the present Instance that the
British government IsnT both
willing and anxious to see a
provisional government estab-
lished forthwith. Independence
for India has been one ef the
most Important planks In the
platform of the new Socialist
government under Prime Min-
ister Attlee.
Complete failure of the present
negotiations would create serious
potentialities for England coming
as it would in the midst of her
efforts to safeguard her position
in the Mediterranean in the face
of Russia's thrust into this area
which is so vital to the mainten-
ance of the British imperial life-
line to the tar east It would be
doubly serious because of Britain's
fresh troubles in Palestine over
the Jewish question and the sud-
den hardening of Egypt's demands
that John Bull pull out of tne
country. Palestine and Egypt are
vitally strategic bases for protec-
tion of the Sues canal and other
eastern Mediterranean interests.
We may go further I believe
and say that complete failure
might result in civil wer In India.
No wonder Nehru says the nego-
tiations go on. forever."

Jap Counsel Argues
Point On Surrender
Tokyo May 13 (67 Argument
that Japan did not surrender un-
conditionally and does not have
to obey every allied command was
prerented today to the far east
military tribunal by the chief de-
fense counsel for Japan's major
war criminate.
Attorney Ichiro Kiyosc's chal-
lenge that the court lacks author-
ity to try the 28 defendants on
55 counts was taken under ad-
visement us the tribunal ad-
journed until Tuesday morning.
The allies chief prosecutor
Joseph II. Keenan labeled Kl-
ysse's argument as the "height
of absurdity" and offered dora-
meniary evldenre that Japan's
surrender waa "utterly without
condition."
Kiyusc said that in giving the
tribunal jurisdiction over crimes
against peace and crimes against
humanity "Ger.. MocArthur is ex-
ercising authority whirti he does
not possess and the Japanese peo-
ple are not bound to obey that
order."
Jupan'sttop statesmen Kiyosc
said agreed to surrender in the
belief they would not be prose-
cuted as war criminals.
The attorney declared that in
the surrender last September
Japan recognized that she would
obey orders and directives of the
allied powers but only those in
accordance with the Potsdam dec-
laration. . .
Thus he challenged the tri-
bunals authority to try the de-
fendants on charges of crimes
against peace and crimes against
humanity charges which make
up a large part of the indictment
against the defeated leaders.
Chief Prosecutor Keenan de-
clared that examination of Japa-
nese communications delivered
to the Swiss government st the
time ef surrender would show
it was without condition.
Keenan turned U the surrender
ultimatum prepared by the allies
at the Potsdam conference last
July for further support for his
argument.
From paragraph 13 he read:
"We call upon the government
of Japan to proclaim now the
unconditional surrender of all
Japanese armed forces . . ."
And from paragraph six:
"There must be eliminated far
all time the authority and in-
fluence of those who have de-
ceived end misled the people of
Japan into embarking on world
conquest . . .

Army records list him as General

In Nehru's Statement On Negotiations
As Keenan spoke of the "pil-
lage murder and plunder" which
he said the 28 defendants had
caused he was interrupted by
Chief Justice Sir William Webb
who asked:
"Do you think those rhetorical
phrases are fitting at thte time:"
Keenan replied that he had no
desire to let the defense'! con-
tentions go unchallenged.
Kiyoae took a different view of
the Potsdam declaration.
Under ita terms he said the
allies could prosecute all war
criminate guilty o( violating ac-
cepted laws and customs of war.
But he argued that no provision
waa made for charge inducted in
the present indictment which hold
the defendants responsible for in-
citing war and fur mistreatment
of allied peoples.
"The Potsdam declaration not
only binds Japan but binds tbe
allies. the white-haired eeaneel
declared. "We in Japan at
time expected that It weald be
extended to crimes against peace
and charges against important
statesmen diplomats sad ether
leaders.
Germany's surrender was whol-
ly unconditional Kiyore said but
the Potsdam agreement "present-
ed an offer to Japan.
"It is this that was accepted
and it is this that the allies must
observe he contended.
Kiyose told the tribunal over
the objection of Keenan that he
could see no reason why the ques-
tion of Japanese aggression in
Manchuria should be covered in
the Indictment. Ho said several
countries had recognized the state
of Manchukuo set up there by
the Japanese.
The counsel who spoke for all
defendants also asked that charges
of crimes against Siam be stricken
because Siam "is not and was
not an allied nation."
Today's session of the tribunal
was held especially to hear Kiyosea
challenge. The trial is act to be-
gin June 2.

Mrs. Dawson Names
Arnett For Minister
By O. E. NTT.L
Written For The Associated Press
Arnett Ok.. May 13 i67 1 This
northwest Oklahoma town the
crossroads of Highways 60 and
283 near the Texas border was
first known os Sturgeon whrn
an opportunist from Arkansas ob-
tained a postoffice here near the
cluse of the lust century.
But Berkley Dawson and Ms
mother known affertionately as
"Grandma" appeared at the
townsUe and assumrd operation
of the Arkansan's store and the
paotofflee with "Grandma" as
peatmlotesa. Mrs. Hanson ar-
ranged to have the office' name
dunged to Arnett in honor of n
minister berk In her Iowa home.
Arnett along with a rival com-
munity of Craft some two miles
to the north was on a mail line
from Gage to Grand covered by
E. E. Null who later built a mute
telephone line along the mail route
with the help of C. P. Ensinger.
As the community expanded and
new businesses were established
Mutt Jenkins Jay Miller and Ike
Killion among the proprietors.
Null was called in to survey the
town.
Nearby Craft waa deserted when
Dr. J. O. Ralston moved his two-
story drugstore from that point to
Arnett.
With the coming of stntchond
the original Day county was left
off the map. A section of the coun-
ty north of tho Canadian river
and part of Woodward county were
incorporated in the New county
of Ellis with the temporary coun-
ty sen at Grand.

Arnett Leader and ether resi-
