 IN CHINA TO BE
 MORE LIBERAL

TOXIC, Nov 25 (by Associated Press).-Belief that If Japan's diplo- macy toward China were conducted so as to really promote the friendly rela- tions between these two countries all troublesome questions between Japan and the United States would disap- pear is expressed by Baron Kogoro Takahira, one of the authors of the famous Takahira-Root agreement. The baron, who formerly was ambassador to the United States, gave his opin- ion in an interview to the Teikoku News Agency, one of the important news-gathering institutions of Japan. Referring to the agreement he made with Elihu Root, the baron said:
 "The object of the agreement, which was proposed at Japan's instance, was to avert collision of interest in China of the high contracting parties. and to cement the bond of permanent amity and cordiality between them. At that time there were evident in- dications of the growth of anti-Japa- nese sentiments pervading China, while on the Pacific many problems threatening the interests of Japan and the Japanese were brewing in Hawaii and the Philippines. The situation and gloomy outlook gave rise to wild rumors calculated to be detrimental to the interests of and friendly relations between the two countries.
 'The imperial government thereon proposed to America to enter upon negotiations for the conclusion of an
The Cordova daily times., 1919-11-25

agreement which resulted in the con- ing into existence of the Takahira- Root agreement, with a view to sweep ing away all such injurious, sensa- tional rumors. The agreement is sin cere and candid in itself, and it is tan tamount to an attempt to break sealed bond to question the virtue of the agreement or it's power to con- trol international relations.
 Every country has a number of men of jingoistic type, who from their different standpoints make it their business to work against the inter- ests of other countries. With regard to the American-Japanese questions which have come to arrest the keen attention of the public of late, I must warn the Japanese people not to give credit to what is reported from time to time by dispatches, but to wait and see the development of the situation,
 
 attitude.
 "At the same time I must call the attention of my countrymen to the fact that most of the disputes and dis sensions between Japan and America invariably arise from Chinese ques- tions, and if Japan's diplomacy toward China be guided and conducted in proper way, so as to really promote friendship between the two countries, all troublesome questions or compli- cations between Japan and America will disappear. And yet I must ad- init that the settlement of the pend- ing Sino-Japanese questions is the hardest of all difficult tasks"

II. Alexander Matthews Is one OF
two brothers who came from England
only a few years ago, yet already well
established in leading musical circles.
They are great favorites with Trinity

Mr. Matthew'S production does 1ot
suffer from such comparison, musl-

cover the same sad history OF the

trcme devotional character.
The Triumph OF the Cross" loses
nothing to the sincere religlonlst, but
gains much IN musical treatment In
that The whole effort Of Mr.. Matthews
Is to make Of the story a worlds tri-
umph insSead OF a worlds misfor-

that used in "Gaule's Passion. In ad-

about one hour. brief statement OF

The second scene Is the trial before

Pilates protests and attempted justin

release unto the mob of Barabbas and,
finally the delivery Of Jesus to be cruci-

Mr.. Matthews must have been famll-

have given much time TO the musical
setting Of these happenings. The music
is certainly most successfully dramatic
and appropriately descriptive

ported up to Monday evening which
is $7,355 beyond the apportionment
of $35, 900.
Sunday was the closing day for the
rs Million Campaign over the country,
but Mr. w. c. Norman, the Brock

ported up to Monday evening, but Mr..
Norman added that a number of
these churches would probably have
more to report, so these returns are
not altogether complete. These are

so it has been one long line of en-

biting winds was soon forgotten by
the liberality and hospitality of the
people along the route, who served
the men hot lunches. Milk and coffee
for their noon day lunches. Invita-
tons were freely given the men to
stay over night in the private resi-
dences.
The survey party is now about z
miles of Hardinsburg, and at the rate
they are travelling the party will reach
Hardinsburg about Wednesday, pro-
viding the weather is all right.
Col .Piersal and Engineer Boone
we're in Cloverport making arrange
ments for the location of the camp
here next week. They made several
changes in the selection of quarters
for the housing of the men. The
Masonic Lodge has rendered its large
banquet hall which will be used by
the men for sleeping quarters R.. L.
Oelze also rendered the use of two
second story rooms next to Taul's
Insurance office, and Hilary Hardin
has let his building for storage, and
the housing of their trucks.
A suitable room will be secured if
possible for the location of the cook
and mess room to be as near these
buildings as possible. Every effort of
the citizens of SCloverport will be
made to make their stay in the city
pleasant one.
As soon as the camp outfit is NOV
ed here the survey party will sart
from Hardinsburg working this way,
and Cloverport may be headquarters
