America Being "Bluffed'
by Japan, Says Ridder

NEW YORK, Oct 26.--Herman
Ridder in the Staats-zeitung today
says the Japanese encroachment in
the Pacific is a menace to the United
States, and, unlike the question of
the rights of the American ships and
cargoes, 1t does not admit of solution
by International law. Japan's return
of seized territory after the war, he
asserts, viii be merely return from
the right hand to tho left" He adds:
THE one and inevitable conclusion
to which we can arrive from all this
is that Japan is In this war for all
she can get out of It, and that what
she is aiming to get out of 1t is the
acquisition of those Pacific islands
most instrumental to her in her cam
paign against the United States in
the Pacific ocean.
II ask the American people, has
not the time come to call for the de-
sistance of Japan from further ag-
erosion? | say 1t. though not with
out regret, that Washington, unin-
structed by the American people. is
no longer capable of hand Ing the
situation. We, a nation which add
niits no superior. have been 'bluffed
by Japan, and are continuing to be
so 'bluffed.'"

FR|GHTFUL LOSS
OF LIFE IN LONG
BATTLE OF USER
Correspondent Gives Thrilling
Description of Struggle in
Northwest.
BY the United Press.

LONDON, Oct. 26.--The correspond
ent of the Daily News. who has been
in an armored train to the banks Of
the User, gives description of the
battle in the northwest He says:
"The battle RACES along the User
with frightful destruction of life. Air
engines, sea engines and land engines
death-sweep this desolate country
vertically, horizontally and trans
versely. Through it the little frail
| human engines crawl and dig, walk
and run, skirmishing, charging and
laundering in little individual fights
and tussles, tired and puzzled, or
dered here and there, sleeping where
/ they can. never washing, and dying
unnoticed. A friend may find himself
firing on friendly force, and few
are to blame.
Thursday the Germans were driven
! back over the User: Friday they Sc
cured footing again and Saturday
| they were again hurled back. Now a
bridge blown up by one side Is re-
paired by the other; it is again blown
up by the first or left as a death-trap
till the enemy is actually crossing.
ACTIONS by armored trains, some
of them the most reckless adventures,
are attempted daily Each day ac-
cumulates an unwritten record of in
dividual daring feats, accepted as part
of the daily work. Day by day our
men push out on these dangerous ex-
plorations, attacked by shell fire, in
danger of cross-fire, dynamite and
ambuscades, bringing priceless sup
port to the threatened lines. AS the
armored train approaches the river
under shell fire the car cracks with
the constant thunder of guns aboard.
1t is amazing to see the angle at
which the guns can be swung.
And overhead the airmen are busy
venturing through fog and puffs OF
exploding shells to get one small fact
of information. We used to regard
the looping of the loop OF the Ger
mans overhead as hare-brained
piece of impudent defiance to our in
fantry fire. Now we know it means
early trouble for the infantry.
Besides us, as we crawl up shutting
the lines like dogs on a scent, grim
trainloads of wounded wait sound
lessly in the sidings. Further UP the
line ambulances are coming slowly
back. The bullets of machine guns
begin to rattle on our armored coats.
Shells we learned to disregard, but the
machine gun is the master of this war.
NUN we 1tdI the t1Ntl a. lltit
country farm. The territory is
SCARED with trenches and it is impos-
sible to say at first who Is in them,
so incidental and separate are the
fortunes of this riverside battle. The
Germans are on our bank enfilading
the lines of the allies trenches. We
creep up and the Germans come into
sight out of the trenches. rush to the
bank and are scattered and smashed.
The allies follow with fierce bayonet
charge.
THE Germans do not wait. They
rush to the bridges and are swept
away by the deadliest destroyer OF all,
the machine gun. The bridge is blown
up, but who can say by whom?
Quickly the train runs back.
A brisk day.. remarks the corre-
spondent Not so bad" replies the
officer. SO the days pass"

GREAT BATTLE ON;
WITS ARE WEAPONS
Evening Star Proverb Puzzles
Are Objectives-Attacking
Forces Daily Reinforced.

While today's newspapers are full
of graphic stories of great battles
being fought between the Germans
and the allies on land and on sea,
battle /of nearer import is being
waged right here in the State of New
Jersey.
It is not battle in which great
guns are being used to cut down the
lives of hundreds and thousands of
men; not a battle in which territory
is sought to be annexed, but battle
to test the keenness of wit; to try
conclusions of brain and ingenuity.
And men, women and children are
engaged.
Out of the battle lines when all Is
over, impartial judges will select one
hundred of the most valiant warriors
and decorate them with the order of
the golden s. The first of the chosen
hundred will receive $500, the Sec
ond $500, the third 5000, the fourth
$3.50, the fifth 500, he sixth $75 the
seventh $50, the e.,.A.h 1926, the ninth
SIS, the tenth $40, and ninety others
will each receive So.
1t is worth an earnest effort to win
these prizes. Not only is the gain
financial, but the pleasure, entertain
ment and education to be derived are
well worth the struggle. The testi-
mony of many who have heretofore
engaged in a Proverb Contest as con-
Quoted by the Evening Star is to the
effect that, aside from the prizes to
be won, the solving of the puzzle pic
lures as pastime well repays one
for the time and thought expended.
There will be sixty puzzle pictures in
the series, each one representing a
well-known or authentic English
proverb. Your part of the game will
be to solve the meaning of. the pic
tures-to write on the coupon ac-
companying each picture the exact
proverbs the pictures represent, and
ut the end of the contest to send the
complete set to the Proverb Editor.
Competent. trustworthy judges will
be appointed to decide and make the
awards. The rules are easy to fol-
low--no impossible conditions are inn
posed. And little thought, study
and care given to the solving of the
pictures may be the means of win
ming for you one of the rich cash
prizes.

Gals concerning the circulation of bad
money through Walton county, and
at DeFuniak, it was reported the bad
money was gotten rid of frequently.
The coins were crudeIy manufactured
and would cause suspicion with almost
anyone receiving any of them. With
all their crudeness, however, they were
unIoaded in some way and quite a
number of reports from victimized
persons had reached the Atlanta head
quarters of the government. Major
Wright was assigned the case, and
he was not long in racing the supply,
he thought, to its one source, and that
was the home of Herring, where a
of the counterfeit was recov-
cred, as well as the moIds themselves
Herring will be held until the next
federal grand jury. His bond was
fixed at $500.

many dairymen, which within the past
few days have been subjected to Sc
we're meteorological examination at the

been found all right, and it was Off
cially stated yesterday that not the
least trace of formaldehyde had been
discovered, and that there had been
found a nice amount of butter-fat.
Samples were thoroughly tested at
the board of health laboratory yes
terday, and it was then asserted that
with the examination of that delivered
and tested then, the last of the city's
dalries had been sampled, and they all
drew a clean bill
No previous notice has lately or at
any time, been given to dairymen, and
different inspectors have been secur-
ing samples for the thorough bacteri-
illogical examination. All of which
gives the milk sold in Pensacola A
hrst-rate reputation.
Inspector Gingles secured SAMPLES
for the laboratory during the past few
days, and it is possible that within a
few days another man will be assigned
to take UP samples for examination

The Coming Meeting
Of Pan-Arnericans.
eriCanS.

The meeting to be held in Washing
ton by the nations of the western
hemisphere to discuss conditions Incl
dent to the war in Europe and decide
upon some line of action relative to
the maintenance of neutrality and the
protection of trade on this side of the
world, bids fair to be 'one of the most
important in the history of the twenty
one republics involved. The neutrality
of Chile has already been violated it
is claimed, by the Germans; Peru fears
violation by Germany or some of the
other nations involved, following the
precedent set by Germany in the Chill
can instance; Brazil and Argentina
find their commerce seriously inter-
fered with and anticipate similar ac-
ton on the part of the warning powers
to that already experienced by Chile
and feared by Peru. The time has
come, in short, for unanimous action
by all the nations in the two Ameri-
cas-.
BY far the most important question
to be discussed at the conference is
a proposition to prohibit the warships
of the nations at war from interior
ing with commerce on this side of the
ocean In short, it is desired to estab-
lish a neutral zone, taking in the ter
ritoriaI waters of the respective coun-
tries and extending the three mile
limit to such a distance as will per-
NIT of trade without interference, |
whether cargoes are in vessels of COM |
batants or not. Naturally, caFgoes |
destined for British possessions in the |
West Indies, or to British Honduras, |
could not be exempt from capture if
or if carried in a ship |
flying the flag of an enemy. But |
there is no reason why an arrange
ment should not be possible by virtue |
Of which the trade of the nations of
he western hemisphere would be free
rom interruption.
The nations of this side of the world
an get along very well without Eu-
.ope and there is no reason why the
amily affairs of the great powers
hould be permitted to interfere with
he conduct of ordinary business be-
ween them. Individual action would
mount to nothing but it is possible
hat a representation backed by TWEEN
y-one nations, headed by the United
states, would have a tendency to
ring the belligerents to a realization
hat the balance of the world had
lights which even they were bound

WOODEN MOLDS
AND A LOT BAD
LOCATED.
SECRET SERVICE MAN TRACES
SUPPLY OF COUNTERFEIT COIN
TO SOURCE AND ARRESTS FAR
MER IN WALTON COUNTY.

/ ]. D. Herring, a farmer, residing at
Glendale, ten miles north of DeF'uniak.
| and about so years of age, was locked
up at the county Jail yesterday after
! having been given a preliminary hear
| ing before United States Commission
| er j. j. Sullivan, Jr., on charges pre-
ferred by J. NJ. Wright of Atlanta, one
of Uncle Sans secret service men.
Herring acknowledged that he had
| made" money in the wooden moIds
which were recovered at his home, and
said that he had made it for the chill
dren to play with" 1t was shown in
the progress of the hearing, however,
that Herring himself had passed the
bad coin, and at one time, testimony
showed, he had bought quarters
worth of tobacco from the store of
Mrs. Hinsley, in Glendale, and instead
of paying % cents for the purchase,
threw three pieces of counterfeit coin
into the cash box of the lady store
keeper named.
Other instances were told of in the
course of the examination, and Her
ring was bound over on two serious
charges. Both are for violating sec
tons of the federal statutes He is
charged with not only coming coun-
terfeit money, but also is charged hav-
ing the moIdS in his possession, and
either of these charges, if proven,
means some years in the federal peni-
Tertiary.
Major Wright. who worked up the
case against Herring, said that in all
the nineteen years of his experience in |
the secret service, the wooden moIds
captured at the home of Herring were |
the first he had ever come across
He is yet trying to figure out how the /
and designing on the quar- |
ters and dimes were made, as the mold |
does not show them in the least
Another interesting DEVELOPMENT
came out after Herring was searched.
He was found to carry a purse with I
two compartments In 1t, and in one /
side We're found several Of the coun-
-erfeit coins while in the other were
carried good coin. The good and the Il
bad money was carefully separated H
out Herring had no comment to make Il
when the secret service man made the Il
discovery.
What appeared to worry Herring the
most was who it was who turned aim
Up to the revenues" He would ask at
who said anything about
matters brought out in the hearing.
1t developed that many complaints ii
