u S. WILL DEAL THROUGH ENGLAND
WITH JAPAN ON SIBERIAN QUESTION
Japan to GiUe
Assurances of
Her DisintereSt

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, March 6.-The Daily Mail
says that the joint representations by
the British, French and Italian am
bassadors in Toxic that Japan inter
vene in Siberia will be tantamount to
4 request that Japan take steps neces-
sary to afford prompt and adequate
protection to entente allied interests
there, the immediate object being to
safeguard the military stores at Nladl-
vostok and along the Transsiberian
railroad.
The Japanese military authorities,
says the Daily Mail, will decide how
far into Siberia il is feasible to carry
the protective measures, which, besides
safeguarding the military stores, also
would seek to prevent the vast 1000
supplies in the Siberian area, bordered
on the west roughly by line parallel
with Omsk, falling into Gerfnanys s
hands.
There is every reason TO believe Japan,
in return for a free hand, desires and is
preparing 10 give the allies every aSsur-
anCe of diSintereStedneSS and of the single
minded purpose to act swiftly and eftl-
cienty solely in the joint allied interests
The American ambassador is not expected
TO join in the quest Although the Unit
ed States is not formal party to the
allied proposal, no opposition to the step
now imminent is expected"

o. S. Approval Not Asked.

Japan, so far as can be learned has
never asked the approval of the United
States to her plans, consequently there
is nothing for the United States TO as
sent TO. On the other hand, the fact
that the United States, under the cir
cumstanceS, is not asserting TO the plan
is not to be construed, in the absence
Of official announcement to that effect,
that assent has been withheld in the
diplomatic sense of the term.
The United States has been advised
Of Japan'S feeling through Japan s ally.
Great Britain, and these two govern
ments are discussing the situation in
the light OF the Anglo-Japanese agree
Inent for the preservation of a status
in the far east.
1t has been pointed out to State De-
partment officials that the Anglo-Jap
anese pact is essentially conservative
in spirit and that so far from contem-
plating or countenancine aggressive
action on the part Of either Great
Britain or Japan, with the purpose of
extending their territorial possessions
in the far east the purpose is directly
opposite and aimed to conserve the
present status of both nations. To this
end il was found necessary to pledge
each of them 10 combine to resist any
other nation that might attack either
of them in the east.
Reports reaching Japan. from many
quarters in Siberia have convinced the
japanese government that such an at
tack is to be feared from Germany; if
not directly. then by stirring up the
bolsheviki in Siberia. Whether this ap-
prehension is well founded is declared
TO be entirely within the judgment of
the Japanese themselves. though il is
probable they would feel it necessary

be, as d matter of courtesy, to inform
them of her purposes.

Looks to Moral Effect.

At the same time, it is understood.
Japan understands the United States is
giving thought to the moral effect in
Russia of such action and would feel
that the absolute necessity should be
apparent before il is taken. These
views have been expressed to Great
Britain.
Administration officials are somewhat
disturbed at. the various interpretations
being placed on the attitude of the gov
ernment toward Japan's prospective ac-
tion in Siberia
The statement that the United States
is in accord in principle with Japan $
plans, supposing always that action is
necessary. has been interpreted in some
dispatches to mean that the United
States has assented to the plan. and
the further statement that the United
States has not assented has been con-
strued in others TO mean that the gov
ernment has withheld its assent.
These various statements are all gen
orally regarded as a play upon words
at a time when official announcements
of the exact status of the situation is
being withheld.

Still Chance for Siberian Peace.

1t is understood that there is still
a chance tAat peace and order in Siberia
and the elimination of German intrigue
and propaganda there can be secured
by the Japanese without the exhibition
of actual force.
Information is being collected from
every quarter as to the extent of the
danger to be expected from either Ger
man prisoners of war or the extreme
naximalist Russian party. 1t is under
stood that special investigation is be-
ing made into the strength of the Co.'S
sack Gen. Semenoff. who. it is believed,
really brought the Siberian issue to
the fore by an appeal TO Japan for aid
in suppressins the bolsheviki. 1t is
suggested that these Cossacks are the
loyal Kussianss" referred to in to-
days Toxic dispatches as an element
which must not be antagonized.

Treaty May Not Be Ratified.

Reuters Petrograd correspondent,
telegraphing Monday, says:
1T seems improbable that the peace
treaty will be- ratified by the Congress
of Soviets at Moscow March IL.
THE delay of a fortnight granted by
the Germans for ratification constitutes
an opportune respite for the soyiets
which probably will be utilized in the
Organization of a red army and the
development of means of defense.
by decision reached at an ex-
traordinary meeting of the council of
commissaries-whic was published be-
fore the signing of the peace treaty
the evacuation of Petrograd is contem-
plated, together with systematic de-
struction of all stores of provisions and
war materials which cannot be re-
moved
1t is said that a section OF the boil
sheviki is in no wise pleased with the
surrender of Nikolai Lenine, the boil
shevik premier. and is inclined to join
the left social reyolutionaries, the war
spirit of which. according to the Daily
Mails Petroerad correspondent, pre-
dominates and constitutes formidable
opposition to the peace party.

British Confidence in Japan.

As Japan's special ally, Great Britain
is represented as having confidence in
Japan's Intentions and has sought to
impart that confidence to the United
States, not with a view to seeking any
active cooperation in a Siberian cam
paign, but simply to allay any feeling
OF apprehension that might develop in
this country that Japan intends to ex-
tend her sovereignty over Siberia per-
manently.
II is believed that the State Depart
ment has been convinced on this point
but does not consider it necessary to
record itself, either affirmativeIy or
negatively.

 The most valuable thing about most of the flood of publi- city articles that comes to the editors office daily is the pin or clip that is used to hold the pages of each batch of this matter to gether. Ninety nine per cent of the publicity matter goes into the editors waste basket in ev- cry office in the country, but the pins and clips go into a special drawer reserved for the purpose. It seems a shame to waste the pins and clips. They are very valuable as compared with the cheap publicity trash which wastes so much white paper and so much of an editors time. ''- Arkansas Democrat.

A nationwide 'anti-cough, sneeze. spit" campaign has been inaugurated by Surgeon General Gorgas. of the U. s. Army, and the State and local boards of health have been called upon to intensity this campaign in Ar kansas The slogan of this cam paign is Don't spit, don't cough don't sneeze". In case it be- comes necessary to do either, bow the head and place hand kerchief or the bare hand over the mouth and nose.
 The germs of the diseases which have caused most of the sickness and deaths in the army camps are carried in the. secre- tions of the nose and mouth and are transmitted largely in this way. Among the diseases thus communicated are pneumonia, measles, humps, diphtheria, meningitis. infantile paralysis influenza and tuberculosis, These are especially communicable in street cars, railway coaches, the aters. churches and all other public and private gatherings.
 Surgeon General Gorgas makes the following statements:
 Thousands of our soldiers who have been treated in army hospitals for respiratory diseases since we went to war, would hot have had these diseases commu- nicated to them had they and their fellow soldiers taken proper pre- cautions against promiscuous coughing, sneezing and splitting.

Big Stock Breeding Farm Is Proposed for Carlisle if Proper Location
 Can Be Secured

Several business men are talk ing much interest in trying to get party preparing to start a fine stock breeding farm to lo- cate in or near Carlisle. Inquiry was received last week regard. ing the possibility of securing the proper location here, as the party stated he was anxious to get into the center of the dairy ing industry of the state and felt that Carlisle was the logical place to come, if proper arrange ments could be made.
 If Carlisle secures this big farm, which will cover about 500 acres, it will mean much to her future, as the promoters propose to raise the finest of Holstein registered stock and people will
 
 be attracted to this community from all over the south, when they are in the market for such stock.
 Those tl ying to secure a suit able location are of the opinion that if it should become neces- sary, it would pay the business men to get in behind this move ment and aid in getting the nec- essary land at such figure as will absolutely insure the loca- tion of the big farm right here.

By Illegal Trading, Rich Man Getting Best, Poor

By Associated Press.
 New York, Sept. 15.-Starvation would be the portion probably of the larger German cities did they not in- crease their scanty stores through illegal trading" Deputy von Herz- berg-Lottum said ina food debate in the Prussian lower house, according to the Berlin Tageblatt. 'The larger cities of Germany arc obtaining one-quarter of their neces. sary stock of foodstuffs through ille- gal trading-without that they would starve," the deputy asserted.
 "The increasing severity of penal ties heighten the risk of indulging in secret trading and raises prices," he continued. There are now 100000 F. persons employed by the war food administration and that under tho circumstances we deliver 30 eggs per year per person is really no heroic deed."

 "I have seen now in Austria that the rich man has everything. the poor man nothing. 1t is a pity to see how the poor people there are suffering from hunger. In comparison to con- ditions there, things in our country are much better"
 "ln Budapest in rich Hungary, the poor wait in line all night for the 30-gram fat ration, and then don't re- ceive it." Major Koch of Cassel, said.
 The illegal or secret trading refer- red to, probably means that the German cities violate the law which fixes maximum price for food and prohibits consumers from paying more than that price. German off, cials have attempted to stop such vio- lations by some cities.

EMPRESS CLAIMS HER ALLOWANCE
 IS NOT ENOUGH
Mother of Late Emperor of Russia Leader of Bolshe-
 wiki Registers "Kick"

Amsterdam, Aug. 31 (Correspond-
 ence of The Associated Press s.)-Mar-
 la Frodorovna, former Dowager Elm press of Russia and mother of the late Emperor Nicholas, not long ago complained to Darachuk, leader of the Bolsheviki Soviet at Yalta that her allowance of 100 rubles a week
 was insufficient.
 "The Soviet wants clerk" retcrted
 Darachuk jeeringly. "If you want to
 supplement your income the positions is open to you."
 Evidently the former Dowager Elm press disdained to reply. This infor-
 mation comes from Dr. Leo Lederer who was sent to Yalta by the Berlin Iageblatt to ascertain the condition of the members of the formerly royal families of Russia. The colony at Yal- ta consists of fifteen persons includ- ing the former Grand Dukes Nicholas and Peter, their wives who are daugh- ters of the King of Montenegro, and the former Grand Duke Alexander Mlchailovitch and his family. They are living in Deulber Castle. near Livadia in the Crimea. Their lives were made extremely miserable when the extremeist Soviet at Yalta early this year assumed control of the palace and ignored directions from Petrograd.
 All were in constant fear of their lives, reports being rife that the Yalta soviet was planning to murder all Ro- manoffs. Attempts actually were made, 1t is said, to kill various mem- bers of the colony, but all were frus- trated by the watchfulness of the loy- al sailor guards.
 Great relief was experienced when the Germans took control. They at any rate had no designs on the lives of the eXiles.
 Neither the dowager empress nor the grand dukes," Dr. Lederer writes ''are regarded as prisoners, and their desire to live in the Crimea as private persons IS fully respecte. Only, like all other private persons, they may not leave the Crimea without the special consent of the German commander.
 "Life at the castle is, it is true, freer and quiter but not more lively than in the time of the Bolsheviki rule. Reading among the cattle in- mates is restricted to Russian news papers which arrive daily, and their intercourse to occasional visits of the
 Yussupoffs of the Princess Wiaszin- SKI. The young grand dukes, who amuse themselves with cricket and ball In the park, alone bring a little

life into the solitary palace. Some of the grand dukes are moving to Ait door,"
 The dowager is said to have aged considerably but she continues to hold herself proudly erect. Nicholas also has turned very gray and his face is deely wrinkled. Neither, Dr. Lederer says, has lest any antipathy to Ger many. All the inmates of the castle appear to believe in the restoration of the monarchy although in demo- cratic, constitutional form. They do not regard as impossible the return of Romanoff to the throne.
 A domiciliary visit to the castle by the Sebastopol Soviet last year re- suited in the theft ia number of val uables. One member of the visiting party ragged sailor, stole the Grand Duke Nicholas boots, leaving his own worn out ones in exchange.
 NicholaS' morganatic daughter has been martied to the Polish Count Tvs zkevitch The wedding was quetly cele- brated in littl local Catholic church, whither the party proceeded in hired cars. Nicholas insisted on donning his brilliant white field marshals uni form, and he decorated himself with all his orders.
