Gen. Seishiro Itagaki assured parliament today. He said the disaster was extremely regrettable," especially in view of the sacred war in China," and added that the original cause of the series of earth-shaking blasts was not known. A large section of the industrial town of Hirakata, 14 miles from Osaka, was wiped out.

Three policemen were missing after rescuing 30 women arsenal workers. Ten thousand of Hirakata's 27,000 population were homeless. An unofficial report was that a careless worker caused the disaster by dropping a bomb on a pile of gunpowder In a loading operation. The explosions, which came at five- minute intervals, started at 3:30 p. and lasted more than an hour.

The resulting fire was not finally controlled until 9 Dr. Dodd Fined $250 In Virginia Accident Case Hanover Courthouse, March 2 (AP)--Dr. William E.

Floyd, of Phillips Exeter Academy gave a talk before the Portsmouth Rotary Club at the Kockingham Hotel this noon. Establishing the premise that human nature remains essentially the same although the conditions under which it operates changes, he said: "There is something in human nature that leads man to work.

The essential nature of work, as it appears to human nature on the one hand, and the conditions under which work la done on the other hand is what I should like to discuss today." As a definition of work he went to the first Book of Genesis, and stated that to a boy play is work and added that the boy who finds play work is going to be the man who makes work play. Discussing the various types of recreation he stressed the type which means recreating ourselves by creating something else. To bring out his point that human nature is essentially the same though conditions change he read the opening of George Eliot's novel "Adam Beede" and then read from a modern book showing working conditions in an automobile assembly plant. Mr. Floyd discussed at length the tension which a man has to work under in the present day.

The early conditions more nearly approached the ideal by which labor can be done, he stated. He asked what the effect on human conditions was and stated that there was pride in the ability to endure, to stand up under and to be able to take it. The pride of achievement and the expert craftsmanship was the big thing in the middle of the 18th century, he said. "You cannot buy the higher sort of thing," he continued. "You can't buy that thing that spreads out and means contentment and happiness." He cited that this was connected with crime, stating that people held up banks in order to get money to try to buy this elusive happiness.

A letter from Paul Harris, founder of Rotary, was read by Paul Hobtos, president of the club. This was in appreciation of the telegram of congratulations sent by the local club upon the occasion of the anniversary of the founding of Rotary.
