Meeting on Child Welfare.

The w. G.. T. u will meet at the
home of Mrs. M. M. Edmunds, 924
East Main street, Tuesday, May 27,
at $3.50 p. M, for a special pro-
gram.
The problem of the child will
again be discussed, and what envir-
onment should encompass him when
outside of his home.
None of those who were present at
the conference last month will ever
forget the thrilling words of the late
Rev. Lucas. This, perhaps, was his
last charge to a public audience, and
Heavens gates even then were ajar
for his entrance to where the little
ones lost so long ago were awaiting
him. He begged the parents within
the reach of his voice to think of
the immortal souls of those given to
them for time, and to spare no
pains to make them splendid men
and women, clean, and strong and
pure. So it is along this line, our
work continues, Mothers are es-
pecially invited to be present.

Washington, May 19.-Talking
with remarkable freedom upon
phases of the Japanese-California
land controversy which were loaded
with diplomatic dynamite" President
Wilson, in his conference with the
newspaper correspondents here today
unreservedly gave his interviewers
complete ''inside information" of the
controversy as he sees it.
The president declared that both
he and the Mikado expected an early
and amicable arrangement of the
California land controversy. He said
there was no crisis or near-crisis.
Little anxiety and no interference by
foreign powers in the present diplo-
matte negotiations.
After talking freely upon the "dy-
Mantle" phases of the controversy,
the president invoked the ban of Sc.
crecy upon certain more delicate sub
iects. He gave orders that the news
paper men must not print his opin-
ions, which, he said, were purely
personal" upon the causes which
had inspired Japan to take its pres
ent stand.
President Wilson indicated that he
was following out his Confidence
PLAN in order to end any misunder-
standing and to make it plain that
no issue had been raised in the con-
troversy which is not possible of
peaceful solution. He believes that
some sources of the Japanese war
talk are purely conjectural. Reports
of the American charge d'affaires at
Toxic minimize reports of anti
American sentiment there. How far
the official Japanese opposition" to
the California land law has gone was
not definitely to be ascertained from
the presidents talk, but that it is
certain that he feels that Japan ap-
preciates Americas friendly offices
which in the past have been exerted
in her behalf.
The president indicated to the re-
porters that Secretary Bryan will
not reply to Japans protest until
Governor Johnson has signed the
anti-land bill. He said that neither
nation is inclined to be hasty in the
matter, but that both are anxious tc
proceed carefully to a solution which
will mean increased friendship. He
also declared that no further nego
tiations with Governor Johnson are
expected. The tentative draft of the
reply to Japan is ready and is being
held by Bryan until Johnson's sig
nature to the bill makes it's dispatch
to Japan timely.
The president understands tha
sentiment on the anti-alien question
is divided in California. He ha
been advised that the northern par
of the state is more strongly in favo
of exclusion or of checking the set
tlement of Asiatics than is the south
ern part of the state, and this feel
ing, it is believed, has made hin
doubt that the call for the Webb bill
is so strong as appears on the fac,
of things.
