Japan Would Retain
The Caroline Islands
Associated Press

TOXIC, April 2-Public opinion in
Japan IS not entirely unanimous on
the question whether Japan shall re-
tain possession of the Marshall and
Caroline Islands which she took from
Germany and now holds. The Osaka
MAlN1CH1 sets forth the attitude of
many japanese thinkers in an article
In which that newspaper insists that
the islands shall be retained. The
MAlN1CH1 declares that, if Amer;-
ca was allowed to seize and fort;fv
Hawaii and thus to greatly threaten
Japan; if she was permitted to oc-
cupy Guam and the Philippines, MAX
ing them not only source of wealth
to herself but also a great menace
to Japan, China and the British and
Dutch possessions; if Australia and
Ne wZealand have similar control ov-
er New Guinea and Samoa; it is GER
tain that Japan shall possess the
Marshall and Caroline islands, exer-
clslng the same right and rule over
them.
And in so doing" the paper as
serts, Japan will be only acting the
part of small watch dog faithfully
protecting its own house, in a very
oihAShCiI Hie1IitltI ana spirit from the
American wolf whose wolfish ambi-
ton is indeed to be feared If Japan
is not to be allowed to fort;fy the
Islands she took from Germany and
Ine defenses Of Gibralter, the Snnee2a Sne2
Canal and other points should be |
razed.
Racial discriminatory treatment in
'nese respects too, should be abolish
cd and these islands not be left to
White mans domination.'
The opposite view was expressed
3y Yuk1o Ozaki, former Minister Of
uStlce' IN an address delivered in
oklo few days ago in which he
aid: ''0
1T is, indeed, a great honor for
apan to occupy the position of a
tockholder in that great internation-
i, i corporation, the League of Nations.
ne honor is far greater than japan
I'll obtain by the possession Of the
larshall and Caroline islands,"

VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY
IN THOMAS BARE CASE

Harrisonburg, Aug 80. Not
guilty" was the verdict rendered by
the jury which heard the evidence
in the case OF the commonwealth
against Thomas NJ. Bare, accused of
burning the home of Isaac Custer.
The arguments were completed about
four o'clock and in less than an hour
the jury returned with its verdict
After concluding the taking of evil
dence at the forenoon session the
Instructions were given the Jury, and
commemorative Attorney Harry NJ.
Strickler opened. the argument for
the prosecution. He recounted in
detail the careful investigation made
of the debris after the fire. Bare's
peculiar actions imm ediately follow
ing the fire, his strange departure
TO Benefits Run, and the rumors of
his guilt which were circulated soon
after his departure, and the general
circumstantial character OF the tes-
timony introduced.
Argument for the defense was OPEN
ed by Charles K. Winfield and closed
by Attorney r.. -. Oft The argu-
ments set forth the known facts in
the case and showed the large amount
OF circumstantial evidence. which was
said 10 compose the case for the prose
cution TO show the inconclusive-
ness of circumstantiai evidence, At
torney OFT referred to the Biblical
story of Joseph and Potiphar's wife,
in which an innocent youth was
Judged guilty because of a mere cir
cumstance. The definite account OF
himself which young Bare had given
was pointed out, and the conflicting
evidence introduced by the prosecu-
ton was duly stressed. 1t was pointed
out that suspicion does not war
rant conviction" and that with the
commonwealth to lay the burden to
prove beyond a reasonable doubt"
the guilt Of the accused.
There was a time OF rejoicing for
Thomas Bare and his relatives and
friends when the court dismissed the
jury and told the prisoner he was
free. The August term OF court will
close today. Court will convene
