Yes and No

"Do you feel that the refusal Of
the peace conference to put into the
league Of nations covenant tx pro-
vision for recognition of equality
among the members of the league in
matters like immigration is serious %
Eyes and no." the baron replied.
You understand, of course, that
japan was not trying TO open the
way for any increased emigration
into America or anywhere else or to
make any change in the gentlemen's
agreement that has been working so
satisfactorily ever since it was es-
tablished by President Roosevelt in
1907. What she was working for
was a recognition of principle Of
fundamental justice that would
make impossible an attitude which,
on the part of some people, has
sometimes been insulting to us.
There is not and there cannot be
any real cause Of friction in the
Pacific between America and japan.
We are agreed about immigration
and have no wish to change that
agreement, though we regret some
of the motives that lie back Of it.

trying to get a foothold on the Mexi-

ooh, most of it. That is, in my
opinion"
GLOW much idealism do you see
in the work of the peace confer
cnce?" was the next question. The
baron took some time to consider.
CrasPers
Everybody has asked for too
much" he finally replied. EVERY
body has wanted to get what they
could for themselves and to have
the rest be idealistic. | think thew
have not given America credit
enough for what she did, and have
not wanted her to take so large a
part in the decisions as she was en-
titled to for her efforts.
"And yet think there has been q
great deal of idealism there, and
that it has carried the world further
than ever before, and that even if
some OF 1t has got lost in the quar-
relling, it still exists. 1t seems to
me like this, if I may use a smile:
when the peace conference met

good intentions, and the Creator

place made for it, close up to His

Enemies Must Wait

Baron Goto was asked to tell how
he had been changed by his reeduca-
ton, but preferred to outline his
views as they stand to-day, rather
than to attempt any comparison.
The force with which he spoke and
the vigor which radiates from his
powerful figure indicate that those
who hope for his elimination from
either japanese politics or interna-
tiona. diplomacy have long to wait.
re does not look his sixty-two
80 = by nearly decade. His whole
figure and bearing suggest Roosevelt
as ne was ten years ago, on a slightly
smaller scale.
His face, wrinkled with a good
nature which seems, at times, tinct-
ured with the inscrutable laughter of
one who looks behind the cards Fate
deals, is topped by grizzling thatch
80 thick that it seems no single hair
can have deserted its post; thick
glasses, which seem almost a part
OF his face, are perched upon the
bridge Of his delicately formed nose
and the firm mouth is half hidden bv
close cropped white mustache and
imperial.
When questioned, the baron sits as
II hall asleep, peering from behind
nus glasses and occasionally nodding
MS head. When he speaks, it is
with force and dircctness and with
many gestures. Then his hands hold
the attention. Beautiful hands they
are-an artist's-slightly plump,
with wonderfully tapered fingers,
and suggestion that within their
seeming softness IL almost unlimited
strength. While he speaks they are
never still, moving hack and forth

Japan's Elder Statesman Wants
To Grow Young

dCIUSS tne table before him, now
tapping it with extended forefinger
and now with clenched knuckles !;
measuring heights and distances, H.
lustrating like those of a trained
pantomimist the points he is making.
He does not speak English, except
for word now and then, but if
one could but be sure that he under

would be little need for him to speak
at all to make his replies plain.
ShirtsLeeues
A hot New York morning had
driven the baron into his shirt
sleeves, but he put on his coat when
visitor appeared, lighted ciga-
rette, and perched himself on one of
the gaudy gilt chairs of the hotel
suite. No protests sufficed to induce
him to remove his coat till the inter
view was formally ended. Then it
came off, though the visitor remained
in the room for some minutes talk
ing with one of his secretaries.
Perched there, the baron occasionally
would tuck one foot under himself.
tallorwise, and would swing the
other in time with the beat of his
oratory as he discussed questions
which particularly interested him.
With his infectious laugh, his wav-
ing cigarette, the twinkle behind the
glasses and the swinging foot, and.
besides these, with his wise states
mans face and powerful, carefully
chosen speech, he seemed the embodi-
ment of that which he aims at
youth added to wisdom.
What does a young old man
think of the increasing talk of ideal
ism, of internationalism and humani-
tarianism in the dealings between
nations, of which we have been hear
ing so much in the last few years."
the baron was asked. GLOW much
of it do you think genuine and how
much pose?"
"lnternationalism," he responded,
lis nothing real. 1t is talk. There
is little likelihood that it will do
anything. Peoples differ from each
other.
"But the humanitarian talk-per-
haps there is good deal of hypoc-
risy in that now. Old men change
their speech more easily than their
purposes. A few years ago it was
lmperialism; now it is this. But
there is something real in this ideal
ism and it will grow. The very fact
that it is being talked so much will
lead people to believe it, and it will
force those who preach it to practise
it. 1t has the strength of it's own
future inside itself. 1t will come to
have greater and greater effect on
international relations, and it will
help make the world better. 1t is
good"
"And what about the so-called
idealism that shows itself in the rad
ical movement, in Bolshevism, this
brotherhood and equality idea? Is
that good or doing good?"

Splendid Irritators

These young men have been chosen
for their irritant value. Their job
is to wake up his mind, by sticking
pins into it if necessary. They have
been carefully picked for their abil-
ity, powers of observation and
trained intellects. But they have also
been picked because they are orig
inal and independent in thought, and
will stick to an argument, because
they will insist on seeing with their
own eyes and saying what they see,
rather than make any attempt to
tell him what they may think he
wants to hear. They are of diff
fering natures and have different
points of view. They are the young
er generation, with all it's varying
outlook, and the baron is seeing the
world through them.
The plan is working, he thinks.
With the new mental equipment thus
carefully gathered, he will return
shortly to place of tremendous
power and influence at home, though
he himself deprecates any sugges-
ton that this is his ambition or ex-
pectation.
81 hope that I shall be able to give
better service if l am called upon,'
he said, when asked about his plans.
"But there are many people in Japan
who would be quite we'll pleased if
died on the way home"

Heaven and He'll

II will ask you question in re-
turn" he countered. every re-
ligion has in it heaven and hell.
whether it be Christianity or
Buddhism or Mahometanism or
what. Now, do you believe that
heaven and hell are far apart, or
that they are neighbors?"
"Probably not SO very far apart.
Some people are so near the edge
that it must be hard to tell them
just where to CO."
"Well, it is so with Bolshevism
and autocracy. They are so near to-
gether that it can hardly be told

OW can a man add youth
Imagine man with

XOulU
to wisdom?
Imagine man with
something of Roosevelt's
qualities of popular spiritual leader
ship and much of Harriman's execu-
tive ability, man who by these
qualities has worked his way through
the public service Of his country un-
til, without party backing but by
pure personal force, he has become
me of it's dominant figures and one
to whom all parties turned for Lead
ership and guidance in the great
crisis of the reconstruction of the
world
Imagine this man, at the age of
sixty-two, deciding that his outlook
on life was growing old, that the
wisdom of experienced statesman
ship alone could not meet his coum-
try's needs, and that to fulfil his
trust he must renew the youth of
his mind, must recast his ideas to fit
the changing thought of the younger
generations, must see and weigh for
himself the physical and spiritual
changes that the world is undergo
ing as result of the great war.
Such a man is Baron Shimpei
Goto, Elder Statesman of Japan,
colonial and railroad administrator,
and lately, in the critical last days
of the war and the preparations for
the peace conference, her Minister
of Foreign Affairs. He is attempt
ing to solve his problem of growing
young again by a method showing
the originality and daring that have
marked his craftsmanship, a plan
that is something new under the sun.
The baron has hired young men
to irritate him.
With seven such men he is round
ing the world to see it's activities
through their eyes, to get the reac-
ton of their minds upon it, to learn
what to-day's youth, to-morrow's
leaders, think and feel and hope in
this greatest crisis in history.

Many Templars of prominence, in
cluding the grand masters and their
aides from distant states. are arriving
hourly. Delegations from the recep-
tion committee meet all distinguished
visitors and escort them to their hotels.
The final plans for the encampment
were discussed at meeting of the com
mittee last night. Everything was pro-
nounced in readiness for the formal
opening of the program.
Business houses all over the city are
being decked in bunting and electric
displays appropriate to the occasion.
The black and white of the Templars
mingles with the national and city col
ors, while appropriate notices await
only the dawning Of the conclave to
blaze forth in incandescent welcome.
The committee made no request that
merchants or industrial houses deck
their business places for the cncamp-
ment. The generous and widespread
spoptaneity with which the city is greet
ing the visiting knights is the more
gratifying to those here who have laborcd
to uphold the city's record for hospi
