The Lokal AnZeiger thinks that the
German answer to Russia will not he

"The outlines, however. are drawn

British Labor Says Flight On"
London, Dec. 31.-The 75O delegates
10 the special national conference con-
vened by the parliamentary committee
of the trades union congress approved
a manifesto declaring that labor In
continuing the war was actuated by a
determination TO make the world safe
for democracy.
The statement insists that restitu-
ton and reparation and also certain
territorial readiustments are necessary
II the renewal of ornaments and war
are to be avoided.
II places at the forefront demand
for the restoration and rehabilitation
Of Belgium at the expense OF Germany.
II also deals with Alsace-Lorraine,
Italy. the Balkans, Poland. Turkey and
German African colonies on similar
lines.
The manifesto was adopted after re-
ceipt of Premier Lloyd Georges letter
virtually rejecting the German peace
terms.
Representing the people as dispirit-
ed and Indifferent. owing 70 the mis-.
cradle conditions OF life, including the
food shortage, the correspondent OF
the Morning Post says that as far as
northern Russia is concerned, II will
accept peace on any terms the Ger
mans may like 20 impose. How the
remainder Of Russia will act Is another
question.
Petrograd. the correspondent adds.
Is full OF Germans who. quite Mt ease,
speak the Berlin dialect loudly, the
Russians not protesting.
In general the feeling OF the allied
residents In northern Russia finds its
nearest parallel In that OF the Euro
pean residents IN Pekin during the
Boxer troubles. He quotes a repre-
sentative az one of the allies as saying
10 him last week:
I'VE shall put up with any afsront 20
keep Russia In the war"
The Posts correspondent adds that
affronts TO the allied diplomats have
not been lacking.
Malls Come Only From Germany.
Residents In Petrograd have been
six weeks In complete ignorance OF
what is happening IN allied countries.
The ordinary postal service stopped
working long ago. On the other hand
there Is plenty OF German newspapers
and information.

A BIT OF HIS EXPERIENCE

and helpful experiences in my work

leg had been smashed by a bomb
while he was working in a/hospital
in France The writer said that he
had been all shot up with Hun
bombs. and would like to see an
American. Within an hour I was
at st. Thomas Hospital, and found
him in The King Edward Ward. He
told me he had heard of me through
some officers whom we had had the
privilege Of helping in various ways
while they were in London. We
arranged for his transfer to the
American Red Cross Hospital, and
he has been going on crutches for
the past month. During this time,
we have taken him TO matinees, re-
ceptions, afternoon teas, and done
number Of other things to cheer him
up. He has been very greatful for
these cOurtesies. and although he
was not a great believer in the

NAGOXA.
GONE Japanese towns rely upon .
~ single temple or palace for fame.
Nagoya takes no such risk Of being
overlooked It possesses a feudal
castle. Of which the citizens are in
ordinately proud; a temple containing
a remarkable statue collection, and a
porcelain factory famous throughout
the world.
Except for the porcelain connois-
seur, visitors to Nagoya rush to view
the castle. If they are sufficiently
distinguished, or can mention casually
enough names OF important people,
the interior Of the castle is at their
disposal. Otherwise they must con-
tent themselves with gazing at the
two golden dolphins or goldfish-the
anatomy IS q bit vague-that sur
mount the castle roof, and studying
the Japanese mastery of curved lines.
as lavishly displayed in the castles
tiers and draped gables
The dolphins are gold plated, and
are so valuable that they have been
encased in wire netting, which is sup
posed to protect them against being
stolen. 1t seems unlikely that any
thief would be so ambitious as to
think Of stealing either Of the pom
derous, glittering objects, which
would be as difficult to conceal as
the celebrated white elephant Yet
japanese tradition says that once
upon a time an INSCRIPTIONS and I'M

one Of the precious golden fish by
way Of a kite. At this critical mo-
ment. the fisherman's perfidy was
discovered and he was boiled in oil.

statues OF Buddha's soc original fol-
lowers It is scarcely possible that
the 500 elect sat for these stone por-
traits, but the variety Of physiognomy
Is astonishing. In fact the range of
types and combinations Of features is
such that the keeper insists that
careful scrutiny will surely reveal the
visitors own august countenance-
The center Of interest in the town
itself is the great porcelain factory
where 10 cent store cups, which no
japanese would own, are manufac-
tured by thousands for unaesthetic
foreigners. and works of art are ere
ated by master craftsmen for the Sc
lect few.
