TOXIC, Wednesday, Nov. 20.-(By

emma raise the. race question at the
Forthcoming peace conference, with the
object of seeking an agreement to the
effect that in the future there shall be
no further racial determinations
throughout the world
Japanese delegation. including rem
resentatives of the war. navy and for
eien ministries, and various experts.
will soon embark at a japanese port on
a warshp bound for the peace confer
ence by way Of the United States.
No announcement has yet been made
as to whether the chief of the plenipo-
tentiaries will be sent from Japan. The
opposition party is urging the nomina-
ton of Viscount Takaaki Kato former
foreign minister, as head of the dele
cation.
If the chief plenipotentiary is not
chosen from among the statesmen now
in Japan, it is most likely that Sutemi
Chinda, the Jananese ambassador TO
Great Britain, or Keshiro Matsui, the
ambassador to France, will represent
Japan at the council.
Japanese subordinates to attend the
peace conference about to leave Japaa
include Vice Admiral Isaamu Takehita

son in Tsingtao. on the Shangtung pen

Except the war revenue bill, little
business was left unfinished by con-
gress, which turns now, for the new
session, from the problems OF war TO
those of peace and reconstruction.
During the ten-day period before the
new session opens, the senate finance
committee will endeavor to complete
revision of the revenue measure, while
house committees work on the mass of
appropriation bills to come before the
next session which expires by limita-
ton next March 3.
Because of the press of appropriation
and reconstruction legislation, to come
before the final session, Representative
Kitchin, democratic leader, warned the
house today that the usual Christmas
HOLIDAYS will be curtailed to "a few
days"
For length, bulk of appropriations for
the war, and the number of important
legislative measures passed. the ses
sion which closed today was regarded
by leaders as unprecedented. At this
session war was declared, on Austria
Hungary and the members also saw
the victorious end of all hostilities.
Session is Unprecedented
Appropriations passed aggregated
| S36, 29S 000. 000 making the total for this
congress more than thirty five billion,
of which s19,412,000,00O was appropri-
ated at the Tristan extra-session, at
which war was declared on Germany.
Legislation passed included bills au-
| thorizing billions of Liberty bonds Gre
| alton of the war finance corporations;
| government control of telegraphs, tele-
| phones and cables; executive reorgan-
| ization of government agencies and
extension Of the espionage act; and the
army draft law by which men between
| Is and 40 years of age were required
| to register.
President Wilson addressed congress
several times during the session. The
| first speech was on January s, when

date work on the war revenue bill, and
on November IL read the terms of the

THROUGH TEL.EPATHY
MEETS BROTHER SHE
SUPPOSED N FRANCE

The efficacy Of mental telepathy VS..
telegraphy might be a subject for de-
bate, with the majority of people
choosing the latter as the most reliable
method of communication.
But Mrs. Lucius Green of Glendale
is a firm believer in the powers of the
former, and on Tuesday saw her broth
er aboard a train as the result of a
message of this kind.
Mrs. Green has a good reason for be-
lieving as she does. She believed her
brother to be in France on the morn
ing of the day she saw him face to-
face.
Separated for a score of years from
her brother, Solomon Snow. a cheerful
Connecticut lad she had in a measure
drifted out of his life. lie had neglected
to write, until the war took him a year
or so ago from his native hills to an
eastern training camp. Then he wrote
and again recently, telling of wounds
he received while on guard duty on a
pier. when he met a suspect, a real
traitor, it was afterward learned, and
had a scuffle with him
Mrs. Green had not heard from her
brother recently. She still thought of
him as freckle-faced fishing and
hill climbing urchin instead of a tall.
tanned son of Uncle Sam, going on
guard duty at untimely hours and
serving his country in other ways.
Tuesday evening, shortly after 9
o'clock, Mrs. Green, through some
strange influence felt impelled TO await
the coming of the south bound train ut
Glendale station. When the train ar
rived, she carefully scanned the faces
at the window for d face with a Khaki
colored hat above. And she saw it.
Bystanders saw a woman rush along
the coach and call a familiar name to
soldier. 1t looked for a moment as
if he might attempt to pull her through
the window and that she would not
object. But there was only time for a
word or two, n tighter hand clasp
through the opened windows, looks that
said more than words
The final incident of the happening
came when the brother, who had not
written or telegraphed, .but who knew
out of the window an already prepared
| car soiled scrap of paper with words
SO often written out laboriously these
days on the laps of soldiers in train
coaches, asking the finder to please
hand the note to the writer's sister
Mrs. Green, that she might know that
the writer had passed through the city.
The reason Mr. Snow had not written
his sister was owing to the fact that
he was going for a prisoner. He is a
/ United States guard and did not write
of his trip, to save any possible him
drance that might arise through
/ knowledge of his journey.

American troops"
David Lloyd-George, Prime Minister
of England, in speaking of our SOL
diers, said
I'VE know that when they appear in
the battle line they fight in way
worthy of the great traditions of their
great country. This is In itself a
source of support, sustenance, and en-
couragement to all those who with
anxious hearts are watching the con.
fict going on in France"
The English and French Prime Min

of the world of the Americans in
France. Our soldiers part in the
great drive against the Germans Is
worthy of our great Nation. On Sep
TENDER % begins the campaign for the
Fourth Liberty Loan, the drive toward
victory which it is the part Of the
Americans at home to make a triumph

country and of our soldiers and sail
ors. And every good American will
do his or her best to make ii SO.
