Claims Pledges Have B e e n

BERLIN, Jan. 30—Adoli Hitler raised his arm in Nazi salute today and assured an aeclaiming nation two-thirds of his pledges have been fulfilled since he became Ger- many's leader.

As the second year of his rule closed, Hitler still was cheered by crowds in nont of the Chancellery. Several times he appeared at his window to hear the loud "hells" of the populace and answer the saluio

He declared he was well ahead of the schedule. “In the first half of the four year period, which I asked the nation to give me to de- velop my working plan, more than two-thirds of what I promised has been carried out. No democratic government in the world can sub- mit itself with "greater confidence and hope to a national vote than can the National Socialist govem- ment of Ger-runny."

Nevertheless, with the exception oi the Saar plebiscite result, the past year does not appear to have bem very favorable to the "ideal- istic Nazis."

‘ODPWIIII Counsel's (him

(YITAWA, Jan. 30.-Oloslng their argument before the White Royal Commission today, counsel for the Domlniu claimed the Maritime Provinces had failed to establish their claims for increases in annual subsidies. The requests of the three provin- om for higher annual pB-Ylnonts irom the Dominion, on the submis- sion of inequality of treatment with other provinces. were unfounded, counsel contended. I-‘rqm a legal point oi view or on equitable or moral grounds, the claims were in- admissible, argued counsel. _ Occupying all day, the contentions on behalf of the Dominion were put forward by F. B. Rugg and C. G. Hewart, associate counsel.

Opposing Counggl-Conclude Argu- ment Before W_h_i:ce Commission.

the hearing which opened on Thurs- day last will terminate. The next stop will be the preparation of the report of the Commission, compris- ing Sir Thomas White, Chief Jus- tice J. A. Mothiesou, of Prince Ed- ward Island, and E. W. Ncsbitt, Woodstock, Ont. The findings of the commission are expected u; be tabled in Parliament within a month or six weeks.

Fiscal need was not the deciding basis for the granting oi subsidies and one reason for this was that the Dominion could not control the ex- penditures oi these payments after m0)’ left its hands, contended He- wsrt. The suggestion the Dominion should pay, on the -ha.sis of fiscal need, general subsidies to the pro- vinces was unsound; and if the principle were applied to the Marl- tlmes it would have to be extended to all provinces, he submitted. Est- imates oi future deficits submitted bl’ the Maritime Provinces, counsel continued. were conjectural.

Counsel was discussing the claims oi the Msritimes on the basis of iis- cal need when he was interrupted by the chairman. "I think," Sir Thomas remarked, “that the low point in the depression on this con- tinent was reached about June, 1932, and that although there have been certain recessions from time to time there has been a gradual tum “p- ward since that time which we hope will continue."

Ffi-Pffiiflhtations had been made, said Hewart, the Dominion had in- vaded the field of taxation avail- able to the provinces by the income tax. The provinces, he proceeded,

were not precluded from levying in- come tax, and several had done so. (Continued on Page 1)

Japanese general headquartc-s at Hsixiking frankly announced the participation of Japanese in the expedition. They said its object was to “expel invading Mongols from Manchoukuo territory."

There were no indications that Soviet Russians were involved in the Kalkha Mlao clashes, but Jap- anese military sources at I-lslnking and Tokyo said the outer Mon- golian government at Urga (staff- ed by many Rizssisn high officials) undoubtedly was under the dom- ination of the Soviet.
