LETTERS TO EDITOR
Equality of Nations


 To the Editor of The Age Herald:
 On March p the Japanese delegates at the peace conference proposed to declare in an article of the constitution of the league of nations that "all nations. with out regard to race, color or creed have and are assured of equal rights"
 The sole object of this declaration is to safeguard peace, and to prevent for the future those struggles for racial su- premacy which in the past have devas- tated the world. The declaration obvious ly deals with nations only and not with their respective nationals. No definition of the rights of citizens of one nation within the territory of another nation is attempted. All such questions lie and nuts continue to lie in treaty between the nations concerned. Least of all d. the Japanese delegates seek to have the eague declare what shall be the pure ly domestic policy of any nation, for all local matters, such as immigration, nat uralization and the tenure of land, are solely within the control of each nation acting for itself alone.
 It is, therefore, surprising to find thar Mir. Hughes, the prime minister of Aus tralia, says he cannot approve this pro posed declaration of national equality be-

LEWIS AND NEKTON
 ID WHISTLE HERE
 THURSDAY NIGHT
Strangler Will Find Worthy Foe in Giant COnquerer of sStecher-Landgrebe to
 Referee

Ed "Strangler" Lewis will wrestle John Nekton at the Bir- min gham Athletic club on next Thursday night, according to an announcement made yester- ady by Bill Streit, chairman ot the committee in charge of the coming bout.
 Lewis popularity here and the high standing of his opponent in the wres- ting game are expected to bring 8 recold-breaking crowd to the club gym on this occasion. Nekton has only re- gently scored victory over Joe Setch- CT, which fact alone is evidence enough that he can grapple with the best Of 'em.
 Stecher's showing here last week
 convinced local fans that he Is one
 of the most scientific wrestlers in
 the game today and whenever a
 bIolxe comes along who can throw
 Joe, why naturally the boys will
 want to see his smoke. NektOn is
 a tiny little chap, being only feet
 inches tall and weighing barely
 22j pounds.
 Since his trip to Birmingham last year Lewis has lost but one match and that to the big Pole Zbyszco.
 And there are many local followers of the mat game who still think that the flying headlock" expert is the superior of the present title claimant. Carl Landgrebe has agreed to referee the bout and Carl always does it in jam-up style. The seat sale begins tomorrow morning.
 The preliminary for Thursday night should be nearly as interesting as the big match. Forbes and Fritz Jones will battle for the 145-pound cham pionship of the city and these two lads are just about evenly matched.

cause Australia has her own domestic policy as to immigration which she is unwilling to change. Apparently MT. Hughes thinks only parochially and of his local policies while the Japanese dele gates are asking the league to think and act internationally. Japan is ready and has offered to give any desired covenant by way of assurance to such as MT. Hughes who fear attack upon policies which Japan in the past may have sought to change.
 Will no such covenant of reassuranee clear the way for the statement that all nations who have met to frame this great charter of human rights arc and must be themselves equal each to the other in their rights as nations?
 Is the parliament of nations not to De free to declare principles of truth and helpfulness for the whole world, CT must if narrow it's mind and be shut in to square all it's utterances by what has heretofore seemed wise and prudent for the local legislature of Australia to put into it's domestic statutes for the regula' ton of its internal affairs?
