JAPS WANT MORE
FRIENDSHIP WITH THE
UNITED STATES

Toxic, April 1S.-speeches by WELL
known men urging the Tightening of
the bonds Of friendship between ia
pan and the United States were made
at a lunchen given in honor Of DR..
Jokichi Takamine of New York by
the new American society Of TOXIC.
DR.. Takamine is returning to New
York and he has been elected as hon
orary president Of the new Toxic or
g%anization which is similar to the ia
pan society of New York.
All the speakers. including Wis.,
count Kaneko, DR.. Soyeda and Eki
Hioki, formerly minister to China,
dwelt upon the desirability Of find
ing solutions to the so-called Ameri-
can problems. Mr.. Hioki in particular
said that the recent Idaho bills were
a warning that the questions were
not yet settled and declared that the
two governments should earnestly
take up the matter and strive for a
solution.
DR.. soyeda prophesied that Japan
and the United States would be more
firmly united than ever before and
he expressed the hope that President
Wilson would send Japan as ambassa-
dor a mar who would complete the
good work begun by the late Ambas-
sador Guthrie.

German. Repeatedly evidence Is
brought to light to prove this asser-
ton, he claims, as the Belgian troops
have often fired upon the English and
French. They are all under sur
Vigilance and many have been shot or
hung for reasonable acts. One Bel
gian barber cut the tnroacs OF ~ Ca
nadians before he was apprehended.
Evans claims that he would like to
go back to France and fight but does
not believe that his knee will ever be
in condition again to stand the strain.
When speaking OF the United States
entering the war he stated that IL
money provisions and munitions were
furnished to the allies. that 1t would
aid greatly in bringing the war to an
early termination.
IF the United States sends troops
into France. they will receive the
greatest reception ever accorded to an
army" said Evans. The effect upon
the soldiers now fighting would also
mean a great deal and l believe that
the war would not last many months.
However, il the United States doesn't
get troops across before six or eight
months, l don't think they will be
needed at ALL" continued the visitor.
Evans will remain in Grand Forks
for a few days in search of his rela-
tives. whom he does not know the
names of. His mothers sister. for
merly a Miss McTavish of Cando. N.

lieved to be a resident of this city.

GREAT GOOD
SEEN IN MEET
Grand Forks Bankers Return
From Fargo Meeting and Take
Part in Important Action.

Among the Grand Forks men who
attended the meeting held yesterday
Of the North Dakota Bankers asso-
citation to discuss ways and means Of
conserving the food stuff production
In the state were Mayor James A. Dim
ME, President A. l. Hunter Of the
First National bank. j. r. Carley.
cashier of the First National bank; E.
j. Lander. president of the Northern
State bank. and O. S. Hanson, presi-
dent Of the Observation-Disclosures
bank. They returned to Grand Forks
this morning and all believe that
much good can be accomplished as a
result Of the action taken.
The Grand Forks bankers regard
the passing Of the resolution favor
ing selective CONSUMPTION in the war
with Germany as of the greatest inn
portance in order to leave the boys at
home who are SO badly needed on the
| farms.
The small termination ability of the
1915 whea crop was revealed by En-
Gov. E. Y. Sarles to the bankers, who
were %astounded to learn that the
termination ranged from % to Is per
cent.
ut would be a great calamity to the
state and the country as a whole IL
LAG u PooI SSOu ILLS SCdAy
said Mr.. Hunter this morning.
Less than ten per cent of the wheat
crop has been sown in Grand Forks
county up to the present this season
n it is not too late for the farmers
to begin testing now, according to Mr..
Hunter.
THE first requisite of carrying on
successful warfare is the raising Of
a big crop" he said. asserting that
this could not be done If the farmers
are to be handicapped through lack Of
adequate help.
In addition to passing a resolution
calling on congress to name a mini
mum price on all farm products, the
bankers considered the difficulties
which the is facing today
with the increasing rise in food prices.
Most Of those present We're OF the
opinion h a there should be a cor
responding increase in salaries.
