Liberty Bond Sales in
Wayne County are Now
$5l, 900 Above Quota

The total sales of Liberty Loan
Bonds in Wayne county up to Mon
day night aggregated $1.151 900, or
s51 900 over the quota fixed by the
state committee.
Tuesday committees continued to
file subscription blanks with the banks
and there were many sales made di-
rectly through the banks in Richmond
and elsewhere in the county. 1ndica-
tions point to the oversubscription of
the loan in Wayne county of at least
$3.50 900 and possibly much more.
The state committee, in a communi-
cation to the Wayne county committee
urged the people who have not sub
scribed to make purchases at once.
The federal reserve bank at Chicago,
which has supervision of the Indiana
district in which Wayne county is To-
Gated, also is urging very large over
subscription in every county. and
Wayne county, it Is to be hoped, will
not fall behind others in Eastern In
diana in this respect. The campaign
does not close until May and all
banks in the county will receive appli
cations for bonds up to and including
that date.
The county committee Tuesday sent
to the federal authorities for the town

cd those townships that have equalled
or exceeded their quotas. Several
have not reached the goal. but the

RESPONSIBLE
FOR ATTITUDE
OF JAPANESE
Gilbert Bowles. Friends Mis-
sionary to Japan for Six
teen Years. Asserts Ameri-
ca Determines japanese
Action.
WANT TO Be FRIENDS

Anti-American demonstrations are in
almost every case a reflex of Anti
Japanese action in America, Gilbert
Bowles, Friends church missionary to
Japan, said in an interview here Tues
day. Mr.. Bowles is attending the an
nual meeting Of the Friends Church
Board OF Foreign Missions.
"The fundamental question is not
what is Japan's attitude toward Amer
ica," Mr.. Bowles said, but what Is
Americas attitude toward Japan. In
my experience Of sixteen years as a
missionary In Japan, l have found that
any anti American demonstration IN
variably followed anti-Japanese legls-
lation. or an Anti-Japanese newspaper
article or speech prophecying war De-
tween the two nations.
IL. am confirmed in the belief that
the American people and government
have it within their power to deter.
mine what the activities Of Japan shall
be. We must bear the heavy end OF
the responsibility, for the japanese
merely reflect what they are led TO
believe is the attitude of the American
people toward them.
Wants to Be Friends.
Japan wishes to remain frlenos
with America She has no hope OF
commercial or industrial power IN the
future If she is forced to face the an
tagonism of the United States
The Japanese people are adaptable
and learn easily the western ways, ac-
cording to Mr.. Bowles, and have no
native antagonism toward the western
countries
The annual meeting OF the Amer
lean Friends Board of Missions began
here Tuesday morning at the Eighth
Street Friends church. The reading OF
minutes and routine business matters
occupied the morning session.
Prominent Friends who were present
included DR.. Elisha Blackburn and

East Africa; 4. p. Turner, of New
York, general secretary of the Student
Volunteers; William c. Tebbert ol
New York, and DR.. Sylvester Newlyn
Of Highpoint, N. c.
The meeting of the mission board
will continue through Wednesday.
On Wednesday there will also be the
