scattered about the island yield
enough to eat and to wear and the
Chamorros take little thought of the
morrow. But saving for furniture buy
ing is the "aristocratic' practice OF
the middle and lower classes. The
millennium will come when in every
home there is at least one piece Of
American-rnade furniture.
Social classes and aristOcracy in
Guam cannot be traced along the usual
lines of demarcation. Practically all
the inhabitants are land owners; many
of the lower classes have recognized
good blood and no family in the island
can be called wealthy. A native who
can obtain a diet of vegetables for
himself and his family, two or three
new cotton suits year, and $50 cash
annually considers himself well off In
deed. He is satisfied with his PRINT
tive house of woven bamboo and palm
leaves.
These are the boundaries to his ma
tive desires and station. But il he
can add to his life the glory Of a
walnut bureau or nickel-trimmed
iron stove, truly the gods have been
good to him. And great, therefore,
is his prestige.
Roughly speaking, the distinction
between classes In Guam falls between
those who live from day to day and
those who are provident and thrifty
The upper class Is cultured, refined
and exclusive. They are usually large

GERMANY REFUSES
REQUEST OF U. S.
WASHINGTON ASKED INDEMNITY
OF BERLIN FOR U. s. LIVES
LOST ON ARABIC.
ANY OBLIGATION IS DENIED
Note Says No Obligation VIII BE Ac-
knowIedged Even If Submarine
Commander Was Mistaken
in Supposed Attack.

Berlin. Germany's note to the
United States bearing on the sinking
of the White Star Line steamer Ara
bic, on Aug. 10, which was commund-
Gated to the American ambassador,
James w. Gerard, for transmission to
Washington, Is in the form of a men,
orandum under date of Sept. Z, the
text of which follows:
ION Aug. 10 German submarine
stopped the English steamer Dunsley,
about 16 nautical miles south of Kin
sale, and was on the point of sinking
the prize by gunfre after the crew
had left the vessel. At this moment
the commander saw large steamer
making directly toward him. This
steamer, as developed later, was the
Arabic. She was recognized as an
enemy vessel, as she did not fly any
flag and did not bear any neutral
markings.
when she approached she altered
her original course, but then again
pointed directly toward the subma-
rine. From this the commander be-
came convinced that the steamer had
the intention of attacking and ram
ming him.
''In order to anticipate this attack
he gave orders for the submarine to
dive and fired torpedo at the steam
er. After firing he convinced himself
that the people on board were being
rescued in fifteen boats.
According to his instructions the
commander was not allowed to attack
the Arabic without warning and with
out saving the lives unless the ship
attempted to escape or offered resist
ance. He was forced. however, TO
conclude from the attendant circun.-
stances that the Arabic planned vio-
lent attack on the submarine.
This conclusion is all the more OBJ
vious as he had been fired upon at a
great distance in the Irish Sea on Aug.
14-that is, few days before-by a
large passenger steamer apparently
belonging to the. British Royal Mail
Steam Packet Company, which he had
neither attacked nor stopped.
"The German government most
deeply regrets that lives were lost
through the action Of the commander.
1t particularly expresses this regret
to the government of the United
States on account Of the death OF
American citizens.
"The German government is unable,
however, to acknowledge any obliga-
ton to grant indemnity in the matter,
even If the commander should have
been mistaken as to the aggressive in
tention Of the Arabic.
IF 1t should prove to be the case
that it is impossible for the German
and American governments to reach a
harmonious opinion on this point, the
German government would be prepar-
ed to submit the difference of opinion
as being a question of international
law to The Hague tribunal for arbitra-
ton, pursuant to article 38 of The
Hague convention for the pacific set
Element of international disputes.
'Tn so doing it assumes that as
matter of course the arbitral decision
shall not be admitted to have the i'm
portance Of a general decision on the
permissibility or the converse under
international law of German subma
rine warfare"

Most Successful Dairymen Have

Intelligent Forethought.

(By WILDER J..FRASER.)
The price of dairy products has adj
vanced, but not in proportion to the
advance in the prices of grain and
land. and under the present conditions
it is the height Of folly to milk cows
that do not pay expenses. It Is, there
fore, matter of great concern to the
dairyman to know what his cows are
