PRICE CONFLICT

WASHINGTON, SEPT: 13. AMERICA'S BULLISH CONFIDENCE IN THE TRIUMPH OF THE ROOSEVELT RECOVERY PROGRAMME HAS RECEIVED A SERIES OF SHOCKS, AND THE FEELING THAT. THE SITUA- TION REQUIRES A THOROUGH OVERHAUL IS NOT CONFINED TO FOREIGN CORRESPON- DENTS.

President Roosevelt is now reported to be very dissatisfied with the slow rate of the increase in employ- ment since the beginning of his recovery drive, and he also feels that farm prices are lagging too far behind the rise in general prices.

He wants a further increase in farm prices by at least sixty per cent.

Inflation on a large scale is thought in some quar- ters to be imminent, but those closer to the President be- lieve that he is still determined to keep direct inflation as a last resort.

UCHIDA REPLACED

TOKYO POLITICAL SURPRISE

HEALTH REASONS GIVEN

Tokyo, Sept. 14. -Political circles were surprised this morning when it was offi- cially announced that Count Uchida, the Secretary for Foreign Affairs, had tendered his resignation and that Mr. Koki Hirota had been appointed as his

successor.

Mr. Hiroth will be installed in charge of the Foreign Office this afternoon.

Count Uchida's resignation Is officially described as being due to ill-health, though it is reported in well-informed quarters to be. due, at least in part to a differ ence of opinion in high places. regarding foreign polles.

EARLIER HINT,

Although the resignation came unexpectedly, it is recalled that his intention to resign "owing to Ill-health" was reported at the end of August,

The report was then denied. although Count Uchida, who is 69 years of age, admitted that he has been feeling the strain of heavy work.
