Wave of Indignation and
Disgust Realized by the
Publisher Himself
Trying to Stem 1t
Episcopal Organ Exposes
Falsity Of Anti-Japanese
War Stories

In its review of the events Of the
week "The Churchman." the Protestant
Episcopal Church organ published in
this city, launches severe attack on
William Randolph Hearst under the
heading "The Yellow Peril The ar
ticle follows:
"The Hearst publications must have
been hard hit by the wave Of public in
dignation and disgust which has passed
over the country. Popular waves Of
feeling are the very breath of Mr..
Hcarst's nostrils and he is The first to
scent their meaning. A campaign Of
public education is now undertaken by
the Hearst journals to inform the pub
lie of the high brand of patriotism Of
the owner of these journals. We are
informed of what they have done in
behalf of Liberty bonds and of their
work in the Red Cross Drive. Evidence
is presented to show us that they are
100 per cent American.
Can Make Hearst PowerIess
"It does not interest us in the least
to know what Mr.. Hearst has done to

the drives of the Red Cross. The
debts and provide for the Red Cross
without Mr.. Hearst's help. But people
are beginning to take an interest in
the damage which can be done by the
streak of yellow in Mr.. Hearst's patri-
otlsm. He will be made powarless to
do harm If the American people can
keep fully informed of just what inter
ests MIR. Hearst is serving"
In an editorial in the same issue Of
"The Churchman," under a heading
Japan and America" an extract from
a pamphlet by the Rev. DR.. Sidney L..
Gulick is quoted to refute the Hearst
stories of the Japanese menace. DR..
Gulick's pamphlet is called "Anti-Jap-
anese War Scare Stories"
"Dr. Gulick's pamphlet takes up in
detail the absurd stories that have
been so freely circulated, and places by
their side the irrefutable facts" the
editorial states "The Magdalena Bay
story is typical. The Hearst journals
insisted that there were $4,000 Japa-
nese, fully armed, drilled daily on the
shores of Magdalena Bay; inquiry re-
vealed six Immigrant fishermen. The
100000 veteran Japanese troops in
Mexico likewise dwindled down to
2,000-odd laborers
Trnth About Japanese
st may not be amiss to note that all
these stories about masses of Japanese
troops have ceased to circulate after
January Dr.. Gulick dryly adds. Had
there been truth in them, the Japanese
soldiers would of course be in Mexico,
and we could not fail to hear about
them"
In discussing a pamphlet entitled
"Rising Japan" written by the Rev. DR..
Jabez T. Sunderland, "The Churchman"
says: "He analyzes the new civliza-
ton and the national aspirations of the
Japanese with the result of a rcductio
ad absurdum of the whole structure of
falsehood which has been reared on
this Japanese Uber-America' ambition
made in Germany.

N. Yard to Build Z.
Super-Dreadnoughts

WASHINGTON, July 6.-Two
Of the 40,000-ton battleships au-
thorized by Congress will be con-
structed at the New York Navy
Yard. Secretary Daniels, it was
learned to-day, has approved the
building of ways at that yard for
this purpose.
The ships are included in the
three-year building programme
for the navy and represent the
largest battlecraft ever planned,
exceeding any existing battle
ship by almost 10000 tons. Un-
der the plans as originally ap-
proved, they are to carry twelve
16-inch guns each and to have
speed Of twenty-five knots.
Until now the huge capital
ship programme has been held
up by the urgent need for de-
stroyers and merchant tonnage.

Wilson Puts
His Veto on
So. 40 Wheat
Continued from page l

tion bill, which carries $2s 1000, 900, out
of the way, before the hoped-for
recess, the House agreed, by a vote of
$50 to JOG, to the compromise at $2.40.
1t is considered unlikely that enough
votes can be mustered by the pro-
ponents of the increased guarantee to
adopt it over the Presidential veto.
When the proposal was first made it
was represented as a necessity to
stimulate production. This argument
has since been exploded by the fact
that the producers have planted a much
larger acreage than last year.
Approval of the increased guarantee
would have necessitated a complete re-
adjustment of the food administra-
tons programme for handling this
years crop. Only last week new wheat
differentials had been announced on
the basis Of $2.2o wheat, making an
allowance for the increased freight
rates promulgated recently by Director
General Of Railroads McAdoo.

The vaudeville and pictures at the Auditorium for the first half of the week are good. Dustin Farnum in North Of Fifty Three, is excellent. The Tansweed Sisters are very clever, Henry Gcnsen has a nice tenor voice and was encored. Nelson & Gray have a nice comedy singing and danc- ing novelty with musical trimmings.

 The Other Mans Wife is really a remsrlsa ble play. The entire action is eentered in and fully carried out, by siT chief characters. The play moves along in a direct and forceful path, the humorous portion being as es- senual to the telling Of the serious part as are the strong scenes of the drama. The fun is human and real

The Porteous & Mitchell company IS planning for a patriotic window display to arouse interest in the cam psign for the Fourth Liberty Loan This display will consist of an ex- hibit of the photographs of Norwich boys now in the service of their country for the successful prosecution of the war.
 A great many copies of a letter. eX- plaining the proposed plan. have been sent to relatives of men in the ser Vice with the result that hundreds of photographs have been loaned to the company for this patriotic exhibit.
 Although every effort has been made to reach the family or relative of every Norwich man in the service ii Is possible that some may have been omitted. due to the fact that it was impossible to obtain perfect list containing the names and addresses of the nearest relatives of the men who are representing Norwich in the army and navy. The Porteous & Nit cnell company, therefore, takes this opportunity to extend. to every family who has one or more members in the service. or 10 the nearest relatives of the men. an invitation 10 loan to the company. a photograph of such mem her or members to be placed in the "Galley or Honor"
 It is requested that these photo graphs be brought or sent to the store at the earliest possible time, as it will Se necessary to arrange the exhibit and have t completed before the opening day Of the Liberty Loan cam paisn, Saturday, Sept. 2Stn.
