 '"The auxiliary Swedish warshipe in- clude eight destroyers, five torpedo gunboats of ancient lineage. B torpedo boats and 14 submarines. The active naval personnel is about 5000 officers and men.
 The Royal Coast Artillery is a branch of Sweden's military service numbering 1,6e0 officers and men.
 For 1917 Sweden's budget for her army amounted to nearly S3e aoo 900 while her naval appropriation for the year approximated $12.000,0
 Up to sixteen years ago there was in Sweden a peculiar branch of the military establishment known as the 1ndelta, consisting of both infantry and cavalry. Members of the 1ndelta lived in various parts of the country and in many instances had their quarters pro- vided for them. This was a survival of 17th century practice which per mitted wealthy land owners to furnish substitutes for the army and in some cases merely to provide quarters for troops in lieu of personal military ser- vice. This practice was discontinued in 1901.

LAPANsS POLICY.

Tn view of the repeated efforts
 which have been made to stir up i'll
 feeling between this country and Ja-
 pan, much of which can undoubtedly
 be traced back to Germany. due con- sideration must be given to the state n1ent which was made by Vfscount Ishii, the head of the Japanese mis- sion now in this country, whom in speaisine to a New York gathering he set fcrtf the foreign policy of his country relative to China. Much un- certainty has been felt regarding Ja- pans attitude towards it's neighbor fin whose affairs it Is taking a deep interest and where this country has always stood for the open door, but he took advantage of the opportunity to dwell upon this very point. and in rather definite terms. when he said, 'I assure you that closed door in China has never been and never will be the policy of my government. The door is open the field is there. We
 welcome cooperation and compett- tion, all tending to the betternent of the equal opportunity. We want good government which. means peace. security and development Of .oppor- unity in China =. Not only will we not seek to essall the Integrity or the sovereignty of China but we will eventually. be prepared to defend and maintain the same integrity and in dependence of China against any az gressor. For we know that cur own landmarks would be threatened by any outside invasion or interference ir China"
 As a special representative from Japan this statement must be looked upon as expressing the sentiment cf S+ n1yA~
