| | TIME.com: Takahashi on Roosevelt -- Oct. 9, 1933 -- Page 1 |
 | | Japanese affectionately call 78-year-old Finance Minister Korekiyo Takahashi "Daruma" after the pot-bellied Buddhist sage, symbol of good luck. |
 | | Takahashi, who in his youth indentured himself to an Oakland, Calif, farmer to work for three years for a total wage of $50, voiced his sympathy for President Roosevelt, his hope that the U. may also be able to avoid printing press inflation, no matter how low the dollar sinks on international exchange. |
 | | To 78-year-old and frankly old-fashioned Korekiyo Takahashi this is nonsense. |
