GIRLS ARE GOOD
Conduct of Legislative EN-
pIOyes Is Above Criticism.
Gibbons ReSentS Presence Lady
Sleuth-Asks Identity.

Chairman Gibbons of the house en-
ployeS committee reSentS the report
ed attempts of a female detective to
spy on legislative employees and today
declared the girls on the house pay
roll were above suspicion. Every girl
whose actions were in any manner
suspicious was promptly dismissed
from service, the house chairman as
serted.
According to the report which came
from several house members, a wo-
man detective has been in the legisla-
tive halls during practically the entire
session. 1t was stated that she was
keeping books on the actions of girls
watching the actions of senate en-
ployes. Neither the identity of the
woman nor the source of her employ
ment was made public. Many girls on
the house service resented the report
that their actions were such as to oc-
casion watching.
All Girls Above Suspicion.
81 don't believe there is a girl on
the employ of the house whose actions
have justified the slightest suspicion"
said Gibbons. I'm fact have watched
them carefully and have had many re-
ports from members. So far as
have been able to learn there is not a
girl in the service whose actions have
attracted attention or VINO mas shown
| the slightest tendency to flirt. / be-
| lieve their integrity is absolutely above
all suspicion and if there is a girl
| who has been in any manner subject
| to just criticism because of date
making 1 would like to have her
| name. If there is a. woman detective
| in the legislature, she is here without
my knowledge or approval"
During several former sessions OF
| the legislature, reports were current
that certain lady employees attended
| parties and that in certain instances
there was justification for complaint
| If there really is woman detective in
| the egislature-which is said by GER
| tain members to be a fact-Gibbens
resents her attempts to prey on house
| employees. He also wants Information
| concerning the identity of the gun
| shoe lady and the organization OIL
| society which sent her to Topeka. A
number of lady employees of the house
are anxious to hold a conversation
| with the mysterious s1euth.

JAPANESE MIS-
SION COMING
Representatives Bringing Con
gratulations On Winning
of War

London, Oct. 11.-Vice-Admira Ka-
to Jap; ese Ministery Of Navy has
arrived here at the head Of an official
mission which is to visit all Of the
principal Allied Countries, to convey
the friendly greetings Of Japan and
congratulations on the winning lot
the war. The japanese Admiral has
been received by the First Lord OF
the, Admiralty to whom he delivered
the message from his country.
The mission will go to the Cont
nent to visit France, Belgium and
Italy. It will return home by way
of America. In a statement publish
ed under his name, Admiral Kato
says:
"My mission is to give to all of the
Allies the friendly greetings. of Japan
and congratulations on the winning of
the war. But we are hoping to see
something of what is being done by
each country in the wayo reconstruc-
ton after the war.
''The great problem for all of the
nations now is to economize, and in
Japan we would like to see a general
agreement for disarmament.
In my country there are no plans
yet for reduction of the navy or
army. We are waiting to see what is
done in that way by the other great
powers That seems to me to be the
position of all the nations. They
are willing to disarm. but are waiting
for a general agreement for that
purpose.
'"The Japanese people are fervent-
ly hoping for the success Of the
League Of Nations. in which they see
the prospect Of the establishment OF
a permanent peace. All the nations
have had enough Of war. and the
world must now give all its energies
20 securing lasting peace.
This being SO, / rather regret that
the allies are retiring from Russia be-
fore the complete pacification of the
country has been obtained. While
Russia is in such a disturbed state
there is always the probability of an
other great war breaking out, and ]
would have been glad to see the Al
lies energetically take in hand the es-
tablishment of sound, permanent
government for that country.
"Howcver. Japan will Loyalty as
sist her friends in keeping the peace
of the world. &nd will especially give
her aid in this direction to her Ally,
Great Britain.
I'VE have nearly settled our differ
ences with China, and things in the
Far East are settling down rapidly
