Mexico City, Aug. l6.-The foreign pop

1t is announced that the constitution

Successful accomplishment Of these two
objectives would inevitably mean the de-

however is the thought Of what Japan
may choose to do in the Pacific. Ger
many has three groups Of island posses
sions in the Pacific. She shares the Sa-
moas with the United States and has
considerable holdings in the Caroline and
Pelow Islands. the latter two groups be-
ing on a line between Hawaii and the
Philippines.
The United States now has a satisfac-
tory chain OF coaIing stations and posi-
BILE naval bases from San Francisco and
Panama to the Philippines.
The taking of the German South Pa
cific island possessions by Japan would
advance that empire nearly half way
across the Pacific. and give her positions
adjacent to those staked out by the
United States.
Japan'G Ambition.
Students of japanese policy, however.
do not believe that she cares to burden
herself with island possessions, though
others maintain that she must do SO II

Pacific Ocean as a highway Of trade
These point to the vigorous extensions
of Japanese trade routes and immigra-
tion movements to the Pacific Coast OF
the United States, Mexico. and Central
and South America, to the east coast Of
South America, and now, with the COM
pletion of the Panama Canal, to the east
coast OF America, and even to Europe.
fOne prediction made here Is that the
entry of Japan will redouble the decla-
rations from Germany that the Kaiser is
leading IN the fight to preserve Western
from the ''semi-civilized"
Slavs and Orientals It is believed that
appeals for the sympathy Of the
United States, almost the only remaining
neutral power in the great conflict, will
be made upon this ground.

An Aspiring Litigant

Thomas C. Chappelle, lawyer-capitalist of
Atlantic City, has just filed claim against the
Federal government amounting, all told, to
$124,000. The patriotic impulses in Mr.. Chap
pelle's breast will be well estimated when it is
understood that $4,000 of this is asked as pay
ment for land which lies at the bottom of the
Patapsco River. Fort Armistead has been using
the stretch of water above this submarine estate
for purposes of target practice and Mr.. Chappelle
holds this is invasion of his rights.
From these depths this citizens claim arises
to the heights. Searchlights from a nearby
lighthouse have been wont to play through the
atmosphere above this valued property. This
air, Mr.. Chappelle holds, belongs legally to him
and the governments luminous beams have in
vaded his rights to the extent of 81, 100.
Where is the top, we are moved to ASK of this
gentlemans holdings? Why doesn't he claim the
stars also? There may be laws on some of the
stellar worlds against foreign ownership, but a
lawyer of Mr.. Chappelle's acumen should be able
to drive team of horses through any law ever
written.
And how does it come, may be queried in the
premises, that Mr.. Chappelle has never become a
monopoys attorney? Such sense of justice as
his would be worth billions to the poor monopo-
lies now pinned against the wall!
