A PRODIGY

To-day Leo Ornstein 10 not
quite sixteen years old. Ten years
ago he was living in Russia, when
his father, who is now a cantor in
small East Side synagogue in
New York City, was driven to this
country by religious persecution.
The boy lived here in poverty
from his earliest childhood days.
But the spirit that in Russia has
made it impossible for the Car 70

young lad to fail here in . land
where poverty finds opportunity at
least.
With phenomenal perseverance,.
backed by very great talent, the

last week at the New Amsterdam
Ttenter in West Forty second

YELLOW JOURNALISM

neau line across the 1fOnC page :
"Jap War Inevitable" with sub
head, expert Predicts Clash In
Far East" Then follows a "Wash-
ington Dispatch" (written in the
local office of the paper) from
which We quote:
"Japan is obsessed with the idea
that it must dominate the Pacific
for its own preservation and must
have its due share of the Chinese
trade now and in the future. This
notion is as fully fixed in the Jap
anese mind as was the idea that if
Russia was permitted to obtain un-
due influence in Korea the Japan
ese nation would be destroyed.
Sooner or later this notion will
bring about war between Japan
and the United States. I do not
expect it to occur before the COM
pletion of the Panama canal, which,
from one point of view, is essen
tial, but it may occur any time
within twenty years.
"This expression of opinion was
made today by high official of
the government who has enjoyed
exceptional advantages in observ-
ing relations between Japan and
the United States, both from the
outside and the inside.
"The same idea apparently is
held by many high in government
authority. This is seen in the an
nouncement that the United States
army is about to undergo a COM
plete reorganization SO far as the
placing of troops is concerned.
Not only are army officers con-
vinced as result of their expert
ence in mobilizing a division in
Texas that the army is badly placed
for administrative reasons proper,
but there is decided opinion
among them that the army must be
more advantageously placed for
the actual protection of the United
States. In this regard they have
the sympathy of the Democrats in
Congress who are in favor of
abolishing many of the existing
army posts for economical reasons.
"There are at present in the
Philippines about $4,000 regular
troops, 5000 Philippine scouts and
1000 constabulary, the last named
being scattered throughout the ar
chipelago. The Notifications nt
Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, when COM
pleted, will be amply able TO take
care of the water side, but divis-
ion Of troops will be necessary to
protect them from the land side.
The Panama canal, OF course, will
be at all times vital TO the safety
of the nation. The completion of
Notifications there will require
division of land forces to protect
them against landing parties.
"Plans to make Notifications in
Hawaii and the Philippines i'm
pregnable are being matured by
the government. War Department
officials announced the belief that
dcfenses mt Corrigedor Island, at
the entrance to Manila bay, nrc al
most invincible now, but say they
want that base to become an ORR
entail Gibraltar.
