POOLING THE PEOPLE

Why all this excitement over
Shantung the lost province" OF China
Heretofore we have allowed Europeans
to rob China numerically without
even protest. In one of his speeches
the president asks II we should 20 to
war TO force Japan to return the prov
ince. This Is an unfair question and
AS far from the American idea a.
some OF his opponents In the senate
who would try to make the treaty
convey the province TO China instead
of japan. II - empty none OF our
business and we ought to be silent ON
the subject unless American rights are
involved.
But the question does show that the
president is playing with words to
gain his point and that some OF his OPP
p0nents are just as partisan. Evident
ly we can not hope for an exposition
or reaffirmatioR OF the true American
policy In these matters. Today we
have politicians who are willing to
jeapordize the future OF the country
for political advantages or in the pur-
suit of fantastic visions and, TO keep
the peoples minds off their poor logic,
they drag In questions alien to the well
fare OF America. Our need Is for
leaders that think In terms of America
and subordinate ideals and personal
desires to the one glorious end.

CAPT. D'ANNUNZIO's MADNESS

Capt. dAnnunzio's coup at Fiume
has already imperilled the concert Of
the allied nations. Again the solemn
decision Of the peace conference deny
ing the city OF Fiume In the eastern
Adriatic to Italy, more than twenty
thousand Italian troops have poured
into the city. In the face OF this raid
British and French troops withdrew.
Capt. d'Annunzio is at the head OF the
raiders. How he proposes TO gain the
city for Italy through this forcible
seizure, is not known. At heart the
Italian people are ready for any mad
ness to gain the port they covet, hut
II Is not likely that the Italian govern
men will approve the act because II
weuld mean war against the allies. IL
Is one OF those things that the league
of nations can work on, and there will
be plenty more, with the United States
gaily mixing in.

STRIKE SET FOR SATURDAY
Latest One in New York Harbor Will
Open Up Then.

New York. April 17.-The latest
New York harbor strike, If it is called.
will not start until Saturday. 1t was
scheduled to begin at 6 a. m. today,
but James l.. Hughes. a department of
labor conciliator, secured a delay of
forty-eight hours to give the govern
ment a chance to intervene. Hughes
intimated that Secretary of Labor Will
son and other high officials would
come here to confer with the men and
companies.
The New York harbor traffic at
present is impeded by a strike which
has been in progress for weeks but
various groups have gone back to
work from time to time and the strike
is not general. The new walkout is
threatened because union boatmen are
asked to tow barges of non-union
firms.
Leaders of union men working for

tonight to decide whether they will
strike for SIS per cent wage increase.

He is HELD INSANE.
Probate Court Finds Lamb Has
Unbalanced Mind.
He Announces He Will Appeal
to Higher Court.

After fighting for twenty-five years
to keep out of asylums and sanitar-
iums. T. J. Lamb, of Lawrence. was
found insane by a jury in the probate
court here this morning. 1t was
found that his mind had been unbal-
anced by the use of alcohol and drugs
and that at certain times he had hon.
icidal tendencies, making it unsafe for
him to be at large. The jury recom-
mended that he be placed in a sani-
tarium other than a state hospital,
however, and given every medical at
tention possible.
Fifteen witnesses testified in the
case. which began last Monday morn
ing. and many more were snbpoenaed
by Lamb who could not be found.
Capper Was Witness.
Senator Arthur Capper testified in
Lambs behalf. and stated that in his
relations with the patient he had not
observed any actions indicative of an
unbalanced mind.
One of Lambs contentious was that
his brothers were trying to get him
out of the way on account of $4,000
acre estate in Michigan that will fall
to them on the death of their mother,
now 90 years old. Many of Lamb
eccentricities and lpeculiarities were
brought out in the hearing. He is said
to have a wife. now visiting in the
east. and two boys who have achieved
considerable success IN tne WOrlu.
Testimony showed that Lamb had
at one time been private secretary to
several United States senators and that
he is well versed in politics.
Declared Insane in 1914.
In 1914 he was declared insane and
sent to the state hospital, but was
soon paroled. He started restoration
proceedings in the district court and
his successful fight for freedom at
tracted widespread attention. Lamb
| declared this morning when the jury
returned it's verdict after four hours
deliberation, that he would appeal his
| case to the supreme court. 1t was
/ stated that attorneys of his relatives
from Lawrence would arrive in To
pela soon to make arrangements fol
| placing Lamb in a sanatorium.

MAKE OWN PASSPORTS
Bolshcvik Agents Are Swarming TO
New Countries in Europe.

Vienna. April 1.-THE spread of
Bolsheviki Propaganda westward is be-
ing greatly favored by the laxity of
frontier regulations the least guarded
being those of Poland. Trains are ar
irving at Budapest and Vienna from
the east carrying numbers OF agents
supplied with all sorts of false pass
ports and false money. The observa-
tions of the correspondent show that
the best guarded frontier apparently is
that of East Prussia, where the Boil
sheviki are made to understand they
are not welcome. Trains from Cracow
into German Silesia and Bohemia,
however. are filled with nondescript
individuals from Russia whose papers
are either not examined at all or are
looked over most casually.
Conditions are much the same as re-
CARDS the trains entering Hungary by
way of the Ukraine and East Galicia.
1t is even asserted that notwithstand-
ing the Italian restrictions entrance to
Italy is not difficult because of the ex-
istence of a false passport factory at
Triest where for a few hundred dol
lars passports are said to be obtain
able, good also for Jugo-Slavia. The
Italian frontier. however, now is
closed, to remain so until April 20.
The Justification of American pass
ports is declared to be SO common that
the representative of the American
diplomatic service here attached to
the Spanish embassy states that it
would be advisable to increase the diff
ficulties of fraud by requiring the ap-
plication of thumb prints to all orig
inal United States passports. as it is
easy, it is claimed, to substitute new
photographs and initiate the sigma
