RACE EQUALITY CLUB
CHECKS FINAL PEACE

WASHINGTON. March 31.--An i'm.
portant diplomatic duel between this
United States and Japan at the peace
conference appears to be progressinn
behind the curtain In secrecy and in
silence it is believed Japan is holding
her race equality" club over the con-
ference. being the largest obstacle to
quick peace.
This is the only explanation avafis
able here for the failure of President
Wilson to press his amendment to the
league Of nations covenant insuring
the preservation OF the Monroe doc.
trine. 1t is noted that while he does
not press this amendment Japan does
not press her race equally amend>
ment.
Also. Australia, worried over this
strange silence of the Japanese. is be-
coming most fearful. Sanction OF the
Monroe doctrine would result in ia
pan pressing for special interest and
control In the orient. The attitude IS
frequently advocated by japanese and
recognized 10 certain degree by the
United States in the Lansing-I Ishf
agreement is months ago. Mean
while cables from Japan tell OF in
creasing demands for racial equality
as league provision. or no league.

it was supposed to be. 1t now circu-
lates more than 100000 copies. and is
limited to that only by the scarcity of
white paper. 1t is going all over the
world, even to American forces on
the Murman coast in Russia. The
money borrowed of the general staff
to start the paper has been paid back.
Says the anniversary number:
almost every line of the first num-
Der was written between errands by
one buck private working in the of
flee of field press headquarters at
Neufchateau. Its cartoons were done
at odd times on still older scraps of
paper up in Damblaine. where the ma
rines were somewhat engrossed with
the preparations for their first inva-
sion of the trenches.
THE present office, over the Amer
lean Chamber of Commerce in Paris,
seems like Madison Square Garden
when compared with the first office
of the Stars and Stripes, where in a
hall bedroom in the Hotel St Anne
the original five got out the early
numbers. with a cavalryman- as the
treasurer counting the first francs
on one beer table and wally drawing
his dern cartoons on another. There
the small staff wrote their pieces, corr
rected them. made up the pages. fold
