Toxic, Oct. 4 (By Mail) .--Unless
the japanese are given the right of
free migration, the time will come
when they must starve or fight" said
Bunti Suzuki, the 'Gompers of ia
PAN" today. And he added: IF I
knew my people, they will fight. not
Starve"
AS Suzuki put it in the interview
he gave me:
II am afraid the league of nations
Will not be a guarantee of peace I'M
less the japanese are given full
equality in the family of nations"
Now this is the more striking be-
cause Suzuki is q warm friend Of or
ganized labor in America and admits
the validity of the resistance of
American labor, especially the
unions. to Japanese immigration.
"Organized labor in Japan under
stands the posAion of organized la
Dor in the United States" he said.
No nation has the right to disturb
the economic situation of another
nation by overruling it with cheaper
labor. We have no spirit of antag-
onism- towards the United States on
that score. We would be disturbed
II our hope for better conditions was
DESTROYED by an influx of cheaper la
Dor from Korea and China. But the
day is eagerly awaited by us when
our standards of living and wages
shall reach the level OF those OF
America and restrictions against us
shall he withdrawn
Possibly America will have no
objection to removing the ban II the
time comes when Japanese working
men are SO well Off at home that thew

The essential fact is that Japan

rate Of from six hundred thousand

vas Suzuki's reply japan has the
lenses population in the world and
It is rapidly increasing in density
America Canada and Australia are
sparsely populated, they have plenty
of room for us and il is not right that
we should Toe excluded if our stand
ard Of living reaches equality with
theirs"
AID he added his declaration that
the time would come when Japan
must fight or starve and that ia
would not starve.
But do you expect America 70

territories because you choose 10 go
on breeding more rapidly thanaoeher
nations"
Birth control does not sQuare
with our conception OF morals-1nd
ethics" said Suzuki.
This leader of the young fzoor
movement in Japan is naaonai
figure Just now for several reasons
He heads the demand that traces
unions be officially recognized and
that the famous article II OF ponce
regulations. for the punishment or
agitation and sedition. be no longer
evoked to prevent unioniZatlon and
strikes. His is the voice of labor
raised in protest that the employers,
not the lahorers have chosen labor
representatives In the international
labor conference to be held in Wash
jnrton.
Now labor has no direct political
influence in Japan. Few laboxers
are voters. and If they were votes
do not get results In Japan. Bu-
reaucrats. imperiaIists, militar4sts
and politicians generally are not
much concerned with hett erment OF
the condition OF workingmen and
their families, Only a minority Of
Jealous Democrats can be said to-
desire higher wages and higher
standards of living for them.
But the masses gave a little defn-
onstration in August Of 1918, OF
what they can do If driven to dAs-
peration, That was in the rice RIOTS
when great mobs pillaged and
burned.

AWAITS THE PRESIDENT
TO AWARD MANDATES
Peace Conference Believes United
States VIII Accept Guardian

PARIS, March 8.-The mandates for
administration OF the German col
onies and the territories OF Asiatic
Turkey will not be apportioned among
the powers by the peace conference
until President Wilson returns. ac-
cording to the Temps today.
Prevailing opinion in conference
circles, the newspaper declares, is
that the United States is ready to ac-
cept mandate for Armenia 1t is
expected that Smyrna will be allotted
to Greece; the mandate for Syria, in
cluding Damascus and Alexandria, TO
France. and that for Mesopotamia and
Palestine to Great Britain, according
to this authority.
1t appears likely, continues the ar
ticle, that Great Britain will be given
the mandate for German East Africa
and that France will receive one for
the greater part of the Kamerun and
Togo1and. Southeast Africa, accord
ing to this plan, will be Joined to the
Union of South Africa
In the Pacific, it seems likely, the
newspaper declares, that Japan will
keep the German islands north of the
equator and Australia all the German
islands south of the equatorial line,
with the exception of German Samoa,
which would be administered by New
Zealand.

Like Achilles, Justice Holmes was
shot through the heel. This wound he
received at Maryes Heights, Freder-

one of several wounds received dur
ing the civil war so the justice knows
what it is TO be wounded, when he
sees the wounded heroes OF the recent
great war. He was shot through the
breast at Balls Bluff, and shot
through the neck at Antietam. He
served throughout the war, being
commissioned captain March -, 1852,

The embargo restrictions calling for

Mr.. H|NESAT WORK
ON RAIL FINANCING
Director General AIranges
Conferences This Week to
Settle Problem.
WAGE QUESTIONS ARISE

Director General Hines has arranged
to devote most of this week to con-
ferences on the financial predicament
faced by the railroad administration
through the failure Of Congress to
pass the s75o,00o,ooo revolving fund
appropriation.
The director general will discuss
with directors of the War Finance
Corporation tomorrow the probable
ability of that organization to ad-
vance several hundred million dollars
in loans to railroads. Tuesday he will
meet a number OF leading railroad
executives and a few bankers. Later
in the weak other conferences may be
arranged with financiers.
Shop Men Ask Increase.
Several hundred thousand railroad
shop employees have asked the rail-
road administration to increase their
wages about 25 per cent. The board of
railroad wages and working condition
has agreed tentatively to hear their
case next Wednesday.
The shop trade employees who were
given one wage advance last year, in
addition to the general increase in
pay, now ask that the basic rate per
hour be changed from 68 cents to S5
cents for trained employees. with pro-
portionate raises for assistants and
helpers. This would make the rate
for second-class workmen about 60
cents per hour.
The application also urges that any
increase be made retroactive to Janu-
ary 1. Shop employees participating
in this wage demand include machin-
lists, blacksmiths, boflerrnakers, sheet
metal workers, electrical workers and
car men.
Ask Readjustment.
The principal wage question now
pending before the railroad admins
tration is the application of the four
leading trainmen's brotherhoods for
readjustments of wage scales to re-
store differentials existing before the
general wage advance and for time
and half pay for overtime. The re-
adjustments have practically been de-
termined upon. resulting in some de-
crease and some advances in wages,
with the general trend upward. No
decision has been reached. however, on
whether time and half or pro rata
wages will be given for overtime.
