came known that Japan. which had
hitherto recognized the Huerta govern
ment. had practically decided not to
receive General Felix Diaz. special am
bassador to express thanks for the par
ticipation by Japan in Mexico's centen-
NAL few years ago.
Likewise the statement Of the Brit
ish government, explaining that It, as
well as Germany and France. had
recognized the Huerta government
after Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson
had made a congratulatory speech to
President Huerta. encouraged admin
istration of1cials to believe that the
foreign powers would give their moral
support to the efforts OF President
Wilson through constitutional proc
esses to influence the restoration of
peace in Mexico.
The administration has decided TO

likely that the note expressing the

Japan's intimation to Mexico that 1t
would receive General Felix Diaz only
as q private individual and not as e
special envoy caused much comment in
Official quarters. Coming at q time
when negotiations are proceeding be-
tween Japan and the United States on
the California alien land question. this
action of Japan toward Mexico was
generally construed as showing a desire
on the part of Japan to avoid anything
open to the construction of being un-
friendly to the United States.

brought out that i'm a few of the
classes there are as many aseseventy
children. This means. it was shown,
that two pupils are placed at a desk
that was intended originally for one.
In many cases it has been necessary
to resort to the use of chairs, thus
depriving the pupil of a desk.

fiscal year was presented and shows
that $6S,S12 will be necessary to con-
duct the schools for the year Of
this amount the State. ii is expected.

RUNAWAY ACCIDENT SPOILS
PUPILS PERFECT RECORD
injuries Least Trouble to Nut
ley High School Lad.

A torn scalp and a lacerated face
is the least thing William Lange, of
Hawthorne avenue, Nutley, is worry
ing about. He is grieved because his
record of eight years in the Nutley
schools without an absent day or a
case of hardness is broken.
Young Lange, junior in the Nut
ley High School, was proud of the
record he had made and expected to
keep up the good work for another
year when he would be graduated.
Cruel fate interviewed yesterday
when the lad was thrown from a
wagon on which he was riding. He
was carried home bruised and bleed
ing. and while DR.. Royal Langdon
worked over him he was mostly con-
cerned as to whether or not he could
attend school today.
He was greatly disappointed when
he was told he would have to re-
main at home.
