ASSENT TO RUSS
INVASION BY JAPS
WITHHELD BY u. S.
Seek Reassuring Statement
From Tokyo Government
Before Making Statement

Washington, March Cit was
authoritatlvcly stated, to-day
that the United States has sent
no communication to Japan on
the subject of action in Siberia
and that If any views of this
government are expressed they
probably will be conveyed to
Great Britain through which
the United States has received d.
all its information ON the situa-
ton.
Washington. March 6.-The Presi-
dent yesterday authorized the state
mept that the United States has not
assented to the proposed occupation
OF Siberia by Japan. lie authorized
this definite announcement when a
press statement, to the effect that
the United States in agreement
with Japan. Great Britain and the
other -belligerents on the princi-
pie of action in Siberia, was sub
mitted to him.
Officials asserted that the >conclu-
sion could not be drawn from the
Presidents comment that the United
states had expressed disagreement
with Japan or with Great Britain or
with France. and the dominant view
was that the United States would
seek a pronouncement by Japan be-
fore committing itself to any def
mite position.
1t was understood that the princi-
pal aim the President has in mind is
to obtain from Tokyo statement
for the benefit of the Russian peo-
pie. The United States, it was con-
tended might seek through a formal
communication to the Japanese gov
ernment an outline of the purposes
of the proposed occupation of Si-
IBERIA, embodying a definite repudia-
tlon of permanent territorial acqui-
sitions
The President, it was said, is keen
ly alert to the effect upon the Rus
sian people in the conversational
expressions by the Allied govern
ments over Japanese intentions in
Russia in Asia, feeling that doubt
less will manifest itself in the Sovi-
ct, which will vote on March II on
the ratification of the peace treaty
with the Central Powers.
Any communication by this Gov
ernment to Tokyo. it is held here,
would not necessarily have to be one
of assent or disagreement with ia
pans intentions, being essentially one
of inquiry, with possibly a stipula-
tion that, even though the United
States might not agree to the prin-
ciple involved, it could, through a
definite statement by Japan, refrain
from actual and avowed Disagree
ment.

Don't Waste Wheat
Flour Su b S titut tes,
Warns Administrator

TT is reported that some indi-
viduals consider that thew
have filled their patriotic duty
in buying the required substitutes
when they buy flour, and that
they then make no further use
of the substitutes. This is en-
tirely a wrong impression. as it
creates no saving of wheat
which is the one reason for the
fifty-fifty rule-and unless each
of us goes further and sacrifices
his personal convenience-if it is
a sacriflce-by eating other ce-
reals there will be no surplus of
wheat for our soldiers or our
allies. This is n crisis where
wheat alone will answer. and
there is only one way to have
wheat, which is for us to go
without to the best of our ability
Most of the meatless restrictions
have been withdrawn in order
that more attention may be paid
to wheat, and every one must feel
that saving wheat is his part in
bis war. and the battle-cry of
Food will win the war" must
be changed to
WHEAT WILL WIN THE WAR"

O'Clock and found the dead man
lying on his bed, his head and arms
hanging over the side of the bed, one
arm outstretched and the other
drawn up, with the hand clinched,
as if he had died in agony and in a

WAR SAVINGS SOCIETIES
OF WAR SINGS SOCIETIES

Judge Thomas W. Champion,
chairman for Carter County in the
thrift stamp campaign, said today
that not as many war savings soci-
cites had been organized in this
county as was desired. He said a
number of societies have been
formed in the western part Of the
county, but none in Ardmore. lie
said S. A. Apple, city chairman, had
taken the matter in hand and would
push the work OF organizing in the

Ardmore is about 5000 short of its

as the clerk is now at work making
an index OF these, it is material to
have the entire ground covered at
once and he insists that ward chair
men should have their workers care
fully canvass every ward, block and
district and turn in these cards
promptly.
