to state emphatically that the enact
ment was purely the outcome of eco
nomic question and further GAGE coun-
ter arguments on various points raised
in our protest But as the reply was
not satisfactory to the Imperial gov
eminent the ambassador was instruct
ed to address on the 4th of June a
second communication to the secretary
of state in answer TO the reply, dis
cussing in detail the point concerning
the violation of the treaty. On the
10Th of June. the secretary of state
handed to Viscount Chtnda the re-
joinder in which counter arguments on
various points mentioned in the sec
ond communication of the Imperial
government were given fully and in
detail, and some suggestions were
mentioned as to the remedial meas
ures concerning the legislation.
The Imperial government then pre-
pared the third note of protest and
caused the ambassador to present 1t on
the 18th of August 10 the secretary
of state, which remains unanswered.
Although the address elected no
formal comment from the state de-
partment, it is understood that the
conditions under which the statement
was made that Japan's last note re-
mains unanswered will serve to direct
attention of the state department
again to this subject from which II
has been almost completely diverted
for the past four months. By mutual
agreement the two governments have
kept from publication the details OF
the negotiations, but it has been I'M
derstood here that the negotiations
came to an end because the principals
had arrived at an 'lmpasse.
The last japanese note, 1t is said,
could not technically be described as
protest; ii was a refusal to accept
as convincing the argument laid down
to the state department in support
Of it's contention that the California
legislation was not in derogation OF
Japan's rights, under the existing
treaty of trade and commerce or those
which japanese enjoy in common
with other nations under the terms of
international law. Each side had stat
ed propositions to which the other
could not subscribe so there was no
longer room for argument.
AS no way has been found out OF
this position under existing conVen-
tions, it is understood that the last Jap
anese proposition contemplates the
making of new treaty which might
permanently settle the issues between
the two countries by precisely defin-
ing the rights of Japanese in America
and of Americans in Japan.
Such a treaty, of course, would have
to meet with the approval of the Unit
ed States Senate.
No suggestion concerning new con-
vention has come from either side and
officials here will not venture predic-
ton as to which of the governments
will take the first step toward contin-
uing or re-opening the negotiations.

tracts. that before he would depart

MARKETING WORLDS
GREATEST PROBLEM
WE ARE LONG ON PRODUCTION.
SHORT ON DISTRIBUTION.
BY Peter Radford

Lecturer National Farmers Union.
The economic distribution OF farm
products Is today the worlds greatest
problem and the war, while it has
brought its hardships, has clearly EN-
phasized the importance of distribu-
ton as factor in American agricul-
ture and promises to give the farm
ers the cooperation of the govern
ment and the business men the
solution OF their marketing problem.
This result will, in measure, com
pensate US for our war losses, for the
business interests and government
have been In the main assisting al
most exclusively on the production
side OF agriculture. While the depart
ment OF agriculture has been dumping
tons OF literature on the farmer telling
him how to produce, the farmer has
been dumping tons Of products in the

The regular police resented the ap-
pointment Of Funkhouser. He chose
the man highest on the civil service
list for his assistant. This proved
to be w. c. Dannenberg. former
agent for the United States depart
ment of Justice.
Funkhouser was provided with
thirty men who are Investigators and
detectives. He raided resorts that
the police asserted were closed. and
in a short time showed that police of
the district were either blind or cor
rupt. This engendered bad feeling
between the two branches Of the de-
partment.
During the last month Dannen-
berg, who has active charge of the
work, has been busy. He raided sa :
looms open after the closing hour,
had number of licenses revoked
and hauled to police stations ..respec-
table" Summers who were 10y riding
around in automobiles. These were
arrested with underworld women in
saloons
Dannenberg has been threatened
with death a score OF times. but he
kept right .on the job. There are but

And the same old line Of suitors
bobbed up in front Of her. Only this
time they were princes Of finance rath-
er than princes of the blood, million
aires rather than dukes and lords.
But the same lack of unity between
the many grades of people was just
as apparent, and Lucy soon made up
her mind that she could never settle
down and be happy with any one Of
these aristocrats of wealth.
But Mrs. Guest and her aunts and
cousins were at her back all the time
urging her to marry, and to marry
as much wealth as she could. They
refused to let her alone, and. 10! one
morning Lucy disappeared. Away
from would-be husbands with their
millions she ran, and refused to re-
turn until her mother promised that
she should marry whom and when
1t was some months after this that
Lucy disappeared again, this time in
London. Reports of her disappear
ance were published p. broadcast
throughout Europe and America.
When she was finally found she was
living In the theatrical district where
she had taken quarters. She an
nounced that she had determined to
take up career on the stage. saying
that she had decided to be of use in
the world. She also said that she did
few months in year. but for the bal
ance of the time she wished to do
something useful.
Banker Rosen is satisfied that he
can make the heiress happy. But her
friends would not be surprised il she
should decide at the last, minute to
put the wedding off indefinitely.

Miss Dodge's friends in New York
are wondering whether she will settle

wife of a millionaire. She has al
ways been very much of a democrat,
