The death of James K. Sullivan,
secretary-treasurer of the Ameateur
Athletic union, American Olympic
commission and famous amateur
sports authority, removes an Ameri-
can track and field devotee who was
noted throughout the world as an ex-
pert on all forms of athletic compe-
tition. His decisions and records
were accepted in all countries where
track sports are held, as being abso-
lutely correct Since the death of
Father Bill' Curtin he has been con-
sidered the worlds foremost athletic
authority and much of the success
of the modern revival of the Olympic
games, both from an American and
international standpoint was due to
his untiring efforts at home and
abroad.
That he was particularly fitted for
this work was due to his early ath-
letic competitive career and his
steadfast devotion to all forms of
track and field sports. IN the early
days of American athletic ramea u,-
livan earned fame equal to that ac-
corded champions of the present day.
His greatest athletic victory was the
winning of the all-around champions

This competition was unusually sc
we're in the old days, consisting o
100, 0,440,SS0 yard runs, one mile, fiv
mile, one hour, three hour runs, 2
mile walk, high and broad jump, sho
and hammer events. Although an al
round athlete his best performance
were in the one-half and mile run
He won many prizes in other form
of competition, including amateu
boxing and wrestling honors, tug Q
war events and swimming. Sulliva
priced his medals and trophies to tn
day of his death and left trunk full
of gold and silver emblems won OF
the athletic field in addition to thos,
bestowed upon him by foreign gov
ernments, in later years, for his
work in connection with the Olympic
games.

WANTS NATURALIZATION
FOR WORTHY JAPANESE

ew York. March 2S-That the Cali
fornia land question is well understood
by the general public of Japan and does
not impair the cordial relations with the
United States is declared by DR.. Shosuke
Sato, Japan's exchange professor to the
United States under the Carnegie Peace
Foundation. Dr. sato, after visiting a
number of American universities. ar
rived in New York today to celIver a
series of lectures at Columbia Univer-
sity.
Japan is at present on friendly terms
with all foreign powers" says DIR. Sato,
but as grave economic problems are in
vOlved for panese who live in Califor-
mia. it is hoped the question can be set
tied by the two nations without further
complications.
IF the right to naturalization in the
United States could be given to those
who have proved themselves worthy Of
citizenship. there would be no further
trouble.
Japan has been keeping strictly to the
gentlemens agreement and there is no
reason to fear that laborers will migrate
to this country.
with America, Japan shares a feeling
adverse to war. Her statesmen represent
open and honest diplomacy. In her mod
ern international relations Japan has i'd
no MachiaveIlis or Talleyrands.
"Japan's relation to Mexico is simply
that of a treaty power. Commercial re-
Iations with Mexico amount to nothing,
so that the idea of a secret policy with
that nation should be dismissed.
Dr. Sato IL accompanied on his tour
of universities by Mr.. Frederick w.
Heckelman, a missit nary to Japan, under
the Board Of Foreign Missions Of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. DR.. Sato is
himself a member of a Methodist Church
In Japan, and asserts that American IN
iuence is being strongly exercised in the
empire through the agency OF mission
aries.
Japan is materially successful The
greatest need of our country today is the
deepening of the inner life. The govern
ment realizes this fact. Representatives
