CHARLIE CHAPLIN ON TOKYO TRIAL

NOBODY'S DARLING

Hollywood, Aug. 6-"God forbid that an actor should ever be the

cause of bloodshed," was the com- ment of Mr. Charlie Chaplin, film comedian, to reports that a group of Japanese military and naval cadets had planned to assassinate him on May, 15, 1938, hoping there- by to cause a war between the United States and Japan. "I can't imagine two countries going to war over the death of a film comedian," he added. "It is also somewhat of a surprise to know that anybody considered me to be the darling of the capitalists."" Mr. Chaplin said that, judging. from some of the remarks he had heard while viewing his own pic- tures, he was nobody's darling.

"He regretted, however, that azy- one in Japan should wish to take his life for any cause as he had the kindest regards for all Japan

ese.

The despatches said that the cadets whose small uprising result- ed in the assassination of the then Premier, Mr. T Inukal, planned to kill Mr. Chaplin, who WILS in Tokyo at the time and who, for many years, was the favourite comedian, of the Japan esa theatre-goers.United Press...
