Japan Diet Dissolved Amid Premier Terauchi Crisis
Tokyo faces a political crisis as the emperor dissolves the house of representatives after Count Terauchi's premiership provokes opposition. An assassination attempt on Yukio Ozaki occurred during a mass meeting demanding Terauchi's resignation. Ozaki, former justice minister, led the Constitutional party and has U.S. ties from 1910. The dissolution triggers a new election and intensifies factional battles within the government.
