Frequent complaints have reached

wild abandon in which young and
beautiful Pittsburg girls wantonly
displayed their charms frequently

Powers in Same
Boat on Chinese
Territory as Japan

WASHINGTON, July 21-Diplo-
matte observers here pointed out to-
night that if America insists on the
surrender by Japan of territory in
Shantung the logical outcome might
be a move aimed at European ma
tions who have concessions in China
Other governments, they pointed
out, have spheres of influence and
occupy territory, taken from the
nation when it was passive or too
weak to offer effective protest.
No attempt was made to predict
the source of such a movement. But
it was stated, if Japan, lying just
across the yellow sea from China,
and posing as a protector. is made to
give up concessions. what is to pre-
vent her from demanding the same
thing from nations of Europe?
There have been rumors that Eu-
ropean powers already are arriving
at an understanding about Asia. If
America stands by her traditional
open door" policy and makes pro-
tests with regard to Kiao Chau, it
was said that she must logically OPP
pose any attempt to extend Euro
pean influence in China.

is practiced widely, particularly
on the Niagara river in the prov

is about $50 fish per hour per
bird. They work for three hours
