RELATIONS 5000 WITH
JAPAN AND UNITED STATES
(Cont:l.lg4 from Page H.

President Jefferson and others are
now being relegated to the background
and the military expansion movement
is being vigorously pushed forward by
Mr.. Wilson. Why? Because the
American interests are threatened.
Germany and Austria are menacing the
safety of American lives on the sea,
and their submarines are threatening
TIE coast of South America. The Teu
tonic spirit of patriotism is being car
ried too far, and the United States is
suffering from this pestilence. All this
has naturally forced the Americans to
get ready for any emergency, hence
great military expansion movement has
suddenly sprung up
Count Okuma thought that Japan
and the United States, working to-
gether could do a great deal towards
Irescuing the world from the calamity
now depressing it.
The premier made several references
to China, where he believed the revolu-
ton was growing worse and threaten
ed to become nation. wide He COM
pared the situation in China with that
in Mexico. and expressed the opinion
that the United States could under
stand the feelings Of Japan. He added:
If the great republic of the United
States and the Japanese Empire should
cooperate in bringing about peace in
China we shall succeed. Japan wishes
to join America in this work of bring
! ing back peace in the world and in re-
storing peace and order in China"
The prime minister feared that if the
Chinese revolution became worse that
China might be divided into two con
testing factions. He estimated that
there were now about $500 Germans
resident in China and thought that
many were engaged in various forms Of
intrigue. The Japanese government
vas taking special measures against
these Germans and Japan's allies could
rest assured that everything was being
done to safeguard their INTEREST,"

there is scarcely a one who is not

IN Georgia, now covering an area of
approximately 1900 square miles, or

The young cotton will soon be COM

successfully through the winter sea-
son, will, before long, be emerging

cation that the weevil is going to

counties this year, will come out best.
The preliminary preparations have. in
most instances, no doubt, been made.
but there is great deal yet to be
done, and every farmer and business
man in the affected territory, should
be well prepared for what is to
come.
1t is the purpose Of the Albany con-
ference to discuss and plan PRE-
PAREDNESS" for boil weevil condi-
tons, and to this end there has been
no more important meeting held since
the boil weevil entered this state.
