JAPANESE ADD SHIPS.
Will Increase Passenger Service on
american Run"

TOXIC. April II Correspondence of
She Associated Press).-The construc-
ton of three fast passenger steamers
to be placed on the American run has
been decided upon by the Nippon
Yusen Kaisha. The ships will have a
speed of twenty knots and gross
tonnage of 10000. The first of the
boats will probably be built in Eng
land, the remaining two, later. in ia
pan.
During the war the European mar
ket was regarded as the most i'm
portant by Japanese shippers. but the
management of the Nippon Yusen
Kaisha is of the opinion that the
American service will assume great
Importance hereafter. and this is the
reason for the proposed construction
Of three new passenger boats. The
view is taken that the service be-
tween Japan and China will also be-
como more important, and the COM
pany accordingly proposes to build
quick passenger boats and place them
on the Shanghai line.

Women Replace Men Bakers.


Photographs recently received In
this country from England show that
the mems places in bakeshops have
been taken almost entirely by women.
Judging by reports. these woman
bakeshop workers are not only maxi
ing good. but their employers are now
wondering why they had not thought
before of this sort OF help. 1t Is very
probable that before long woman
workers in American bakeries will be
the rule and no longer the exception.
and there is no good reason why
here, too. the members of the fair sex
will not be all. and perhaps a little
more, than the man workers have
been. Women, as a rule, are more apt
at learning and adapting themselves
to new conditions than men. and, what
is more important, they are more in
clined to cleanliness-surely a great
factor in the modern commercial bak-

Taught Officers How to Lead.

Macarthur did not agree with them.
He pointed out that the Rainbow Di-
vision was practically a green divi-
sion. Some of its men had had serv-
ice on the border. but that was moth
ing compared to what they were to
undergo in the European war. He
wanted to create an esprit de corps.
He wanted to get his officers ND on
their toes. The men would follow
the officers anywhere. he said. He
wanted to teach the officers how to
lead. That he succeeded is a matter
of common knowledge. Over in
France the three leading combat di-
visions were considered to be the
LIST and I'd Regulars and the Rain
hows. Other divisions disputed this.
of course. But it was noticeable that
one of the three named was in each
list of the three best.
1t was not merely by rambling
about under fire that Macarthur
maintained the morale of his men. He
was only wounded twice Any man
who took the chances he did should
have been wounded a dozen times. If
the law of averages ever worked He
fought for his men with G. H. O.
There were many weeks during which
the Rainbows did not get the food
they were entitled to. or the clothing
they should have had, but it was not
for lack of energy on MacArthur's
part. He said things to G. H. Q. that
would have sent any other officer
PACK on a transport. But it was per-
fectly understood that Macarthur at

home would be a more serious danger
to G. H. Q's morale than Macarthur
in France.
There was a time when the Rain
bows were ragged and almost shoe
less, and SO extraordinarily verminous
that the meek stranger rarely missed
picking up a few souvenirs on visit
to a Rainbow camp. MacArthur's
language to C. H. =. during that time
was appalling. This may be a mill
tary secret and it may not be, but it
is the truth. Once an inspector was
sent down to see what was the mat

crderlies said. Honest to Gawd. that

There are Army officers who lack
initiative. Macarthur does not. There
are others who fear to display initia-
tive because superiorS might frown.
Macarthur has about as much fear of
a superior as he has of a second
hand knocking bird. He accords re-
spect just the superior is worthy.

Victims of Bolsheviki.

There is plenty OF food in the
Ukraine. but bolshevism obtained the
upper hand there owing to use of
money from Moscow, agitation and the
buying of troops who otherwise would
have been faithful. What is now i'm
portant is that it should be under
stood that there really is national
movement in the Ukraine. and that this
movement. with little help. allied
recognition and moral support, would
manfully continue the struggle against
the Moscow invaders and aid in pre-
venting the invasion of Rumania. thus
closing the bolShevik corridor to Buda-
pest.
The pathetic part of the whole bust
ness is that the Poles and others who.
it is felt here. should be cooperating
with the Ukrainians spend their time
in describing the Ukrainians as led by
group of advanturers. particularly
with regard to the Ukrainian claim to
the OF! fields of Galicia.

States Reason for Request.

In his application the archduke
makes no mention of royalty or title
and merely uses the name Mr.. Charles
Stephan HapSburg. In giving his rea-
sons for seeking citizenship he says
that for many years he has main
tanned his home in the town of Zywec.
located in what was formerly the
Austro- province OF Ga!icia,
but is now within the territory of the
Polish state. He further says that his
two daughters have married men Of
Polish blood, that his grandchildren
are being educated as Poles and that
he desires to be a Polish citizen in
name and fact. One of his daughters
whose home is in village in the
province of Poznan. The other daugh-
ter married Prince (now Mr) Radzi-
will, whose home is in NeSwieZ. in the
part of Poland freed from Russian
rule.
During the war and up to the time
that the last Emperor of Austria Hun
gary. Charles Francis. now in Swift
zerland. interfered Archduke Charles
Stephan was being put forward by some
King of Poland. 1t was discovered,
however. by the Poles that his son Will
liam, with a number of Austrian and
German officers, was directing an effort
to create a chasm between the Poles
and the Ukranians in the Ukrainian
army. This. together with the refusal
of the Poles to form a large army in
Warsaw and the surrounding country
for the use of the central powers, caused
the we'll laid plan to fail.
Since the armistice and the creation
OF the Polish republic there have APP
peared charges in the newspapers that,
together with his son and other Haps-
burgs. Archduke Charles Stephan was
helping the Ukrainians with advice and
money in their fight upon Lemberg and
the Poles. The archduke issued public
and formal denials of these reports. dis
claiming sympathy or connection with
any attacks upon the Poles by external
foes and protesting respect for the re-
public. Of which his two daughters and
their children are citizens In his appli-
cation for Polish citizenship the arch
duke is silent as to his son. who is rec
ognized as being one of the most hostile
men in Europe to the new Polish re-
public.

Enthusiasm and Daring.

Those who have watched Macarthur
in the field think he will speed up
West Point. For years we praised our
very excellent little military academy
until the average American gained
the belief that it was the very best
military academy in the world. Per-
haps it was in the matter of scholar
ship. MacArthur'S contribution will be
spirit and enthusiasm and daring.
Perhaps he will make his youngsters
la bit reckless. But their men will fol-
low them through perdition and high
water.
After all. a shade of reck!essness-
just suspicion of deviltry-rather
becomes an officer. Is it not?

How Application Is Viewed.

Whether the Polish ministry in
Warsaw accepts or rejects the appli-
cation for citizenship. the renuncia-
tion by the archduke of his titles of
royalty and Austrian citizenship is
believed in diplomatic circles to be
binding. Austrians whom l asked
about 1t declared that they would SO
regard 1t. Some see in the archduke's
application a public slap at the former
emperor for thwarting the scheme to
place the archduke upon the throne
Of Poland. Others look upon the ap-
plication as a Hapsburg plan to keep
in touch with Polish affairs. in the hope
that through systematic undermining by
external enemies the time may come
when Poland may again be placed under
foreign rule.
1t is believed by the Polish repre-
eentatives here that before the arch
dukes application is acted on the gov
eminent at Warsaw will demand a
definite statement as to the purposes
of the applicant. simultaneously with
the archduke's move it is reported
that other Hapsburgs who have hold
fngs in parts of Silesia populated by
Poles are actively opposing the an
nexation Of those regions to Poland.

Gen. Macarthur
LOVES Risk and
Danger IL, Wa,
BY HERBERT COREY.

NEW YORK. May 17.-There is one
thing that Brig. Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur will not teach the cadets at
West Point when he takes command
of the Military Academy. That is
caution. He is just as conservative
as a fire in a powder magazine. He
hunts risks like some people do quail.
He likes nothing SO well as to get
into a nice. bomb throwing. scream
ing. shooting scrimmage His men say
he is Il bear in one, too.
His first real hand-to-hand fight in
France was while the Rainbow Divi-
sion was still under the nominal COM
mand of the French. Macarthur was
the chief of STAFF. At that time the
had not fought at all and
the French looked on them with con-
siderable doubt. They put on a little
show to teach the Americans some of
the finer points of the game. Nothing
was involved. If everything
went well few Germans might be
killed or captured. If things went
wrong the worst that could happen
would be the useless expenditure of

Riding Whip His Weapon.

They did not know Macarthur. He
went to the place designated and then
he kept on going. When the French
hoped over he hoped With them.
BY and by they got to a small village
in which shells were dropping and
men were being killed and a copious
abundance of fighting was going on.
Macarthur was unarmed, because he
had thought it wise to disarm sus-
picion by leaving his weapons at
home. He argued that If the French
officers who were tutoring Americans
in the art of war saw him with only a
riding whip they would not suspect
that he proposed to go on the charge.
So he carried only riding whip.
1t was lovely day for Macarthur
His eyes snapped and sparkled as he
told about it. Men had been knocked
over all around him. He saw men
being killed every sort of way. He
personally captured a number of Ger
mans. including one large officer He
took the officer by threatening him
with the riding whip. But he didn't
tell these things. He was most i'm
pressed by the perfect nonchalance of a
French veteran who curled up in shell
hole for protection from fire, smoked a
cigarette and went to sleep. Men were
killed within a dozen feet of him. but
the veteran slept on. When the whistle
blew he rubbed his eyes and picked up
his rifle and walked on. 1t was all in
the days work.

life in that fashion," his friends re-
