THE CRIME OF SHANTUNG

No feature of the peace treaty has
Pacific coast than the unconditional
surrender of the German rights" in
Shantung province to Japan. The
handling of the Saar valley problem,
of southern Tyrol, of Dalmatia and
of the Polish boundaries may pre-
JUDGE the future peace of Europe
and may run contrary to- the prin-
ciples enunciated by President Will
son, but all these territories were
taken from enemy countries whose
rulers had inflicted almost irrepar-
able damage upon the new owners.
China, on the other hand, was one
of the nations waging war against
Germany. True, China did not play
large part in the war, yet the SER
vice rendered by 100000 Chinese
workers behind the lines in France
was more important than Japan's
total contribution to the success of
the cause. Compared with her re-
sources, Japan worked less and
gained more in the war than any
other participant, even without the
acquisition of Chinese territory. Yet
the peace conference "compensates'
Japan for her war effort" by the
transfer of a province belonging to
a friend and ally.
China's salvation lies not in Paris
or Washington. Only by developing
a real national spirit can the Chinese
save themselves. If the loss of Shan
tung will stimulate the growth OF
such spirit, the treaty Of versailles
will mark the beginning of new
era for China.-July Sunset.

Mourned as Dead for Three Years.
Five years ago Edward 7. Dewitt
stepped across the threshold OF his
fathers house to enlist in the Cana
dian army. Nearly four years ago his
father and sister read an official letter
that the boy had been killed. mat
was all-no word came. no word was
expected. Dewitt stepped back over
the threshold the other day.
He appeared as a war-scarred vet
eran. The home is at'306 Forrest ave-
nue., st. Paul.
He enlisted August, 1914, with the
Edmonton Fusiliers and went to
France with the first contingent. one
day comrade brought news back TO
the States that Dewitt was dead.
While officially dead" the soldier
was only wounded at Ypres, June,
1915, and had turn at "blighty" In
England. He returned to the front In
January, 1917, and served until the
armistice was signed.

GERMANS AGREE TO
SIGN ALLIES Terms
PEACE PACT IS ACCEPTED AFTER
PLEA FOR FURTHER TIME
HAD BEEN REFUSED.
Weinar Cabinet Notifies Allies OF
Purpose to Yield to Demands But
Insists That Peace Conditions
Are "A Peace of Violence"

Paris.-The terms of the allies have
been accepted by Germany. The Ger
man government at Weimar has for
mally communicated its willingness to
sign the peace terms Internationally,
it was announced by the French for
eign office on June %.
Haniel Won Haimhausen will sign the
peace treaty for the Germans, II ap-
peared likely from all Information at
the headquarters Of the American del
egatiOn. A plea for further time made
by the Germans was fatty refused.
In declaring it's intention 20 accept
and sign the peace terms, the govern
ment of the German republic has sent
the following note to NJ. Clemenceau,
president of the peace conference,
through DR.. Haniel Won Halmhausen !:
1.-THE minister of foreign affairs has
instructed me to communicate to your
excellency the following:
1T appears to the government OF the
German republic, in CONSERVATION at
the last communication OF the allied
and associated governments, that these
| governments have decided to wrest
from Germany by force acceptance OF
the peace conditions, even those which,
! without presenting any material sig
nificance, aim at divesting the German
people of their honor.
mo act of violence can touch the
honor Of the German people. The
German people, after frightful suffer-
ing in these last years, have no means
of defending themselves by external
action.
| "Yieding to superior force, and with
| out renouncing in the meantime Its
own view of the unheard-of injustice
of the peace conditions, the govern
ment of the German republic declares
that it is ready to accept and sign the
peace conditions imposed.
"Please accept, Mr. President, as.
surances of my high consideration.
(Signed) "VON HANIEL."
The Italian delegates at present in
Paris have been authorized to sign
the treaty on behalf Of Italy. This an
nouncement removed one question
which it was feared might delay the
signing.
The German note of acceptance, 1t is
said, is couched in such language that
the peace conditions are "a peace OF
violence"
Terms Germany Accepts.
Here are the high spots of the treaty
of peace which Germany will officially
accept. Germany loses Alsace-Lor'

WISDOM OF EGYPTIANS SHOWN.
Industrial Exhibit Will Show Ancient
Methods of Dehydrating Fruit.

Chicago, Aug. 2.-How the wisdom
of the ancient Egyptians is still OF
value to the modern industrial world
Is expected to be shown at the Coli
scum in Chicago. when exhibits Of de-
hydrated products are placed on view
to indicate one method Of reducing the
high cost Of living. a-.
This will be at the Hotel Mems EX-
position, which starts Aug. 4. and lasts
q week.
The purpose Of this particular ex-
hibit will be to indicate how vegetables
and fruits may be bought during the
season Of plenty and stored turnout
the year in a small space, being used
when the prices are high. The prin-
ciple of conservation is the same as
cold storage. but the method is differ
ent, and, for fruits and vegetables, Is
said to be far superior.
It Is said that for fruits and vege-
tables preserved by this process the
cost is less than that Of canning; that
the only containers required are
paper sacks, instead Of expensive cans
and Jars, and the space required Is
also much less. The process consists
OF drying SClcullHCtilly SO liieht GA wan
water is taken from the product
When 1t is used it is "re-hydrated,'
that is, stepped in water until 1t has
re-absorbed its orisinai ::ater con-
| tent.

this process will be shown. will also
exhibit numerous other devices for the
saving Of labor and expense in house
keeping, and is exciting considerable
interest among women as well as
among those engaged in the hotel In
dustry. Exhibits will include those re-
lating to community efforts to reduce
domestic expense: various devices by
which mechanical means may be uset
for service instead Of human effort. II

OSCAR HAMM ERsTEIN DEAD.
History Of Famous Impressrio One OF
Hish Lights and TRAGEDY.


New York, Aug. Oscar Hammer
stein, theater builder and producer OF
grand opera, died in hospital last
night Of a complication Of diseases
after an illness of several days.
Mr., Hammerstein had been In
state of coma since late Monday after
noon and died without regaining con-
seriousness. His wife and son. Arthur,
were at his bedside when the end
came at 1888 o'clock.
The death Of Oscar Hammerstein re-
moves from the public eye one Of the
most interesting personalities the melt
ing pot Of America has produced.
In his life were crowded all the trag-
edies, all the high lights. and all the
romances that an active imagination
might attribute to the years OF man
Of genius and tireless energy who be-
gan life as q penniless immigrant,
made and lost fortune after fortune,
and, before he had shuffled off. had
established himself as one Of tire
worlds greatest impresarios OF opera
He was born in Berlin in 1S47. Be-
ing chastised one day by his father, ne
sold his violin and came to America
landing with 81. Going to work In a
cigar factory, he turned his hand to in
ventions of machinery for making Gig
ars.
He patented more than 100 devices,
one Of which made its purchaser many
thousands, but netted the inventor only
5000. But the next invention brought
him 100000.
He then edited the United States To-
bacco Journal for a time. He wrote
Eat this time three plays which were
played in German in New York. he
next leased the Stadt theater in the
Bowery.
In 1880 he. began to build theaters
finishing up with the Lexington Ave-
nue. opera House in 1914. In the selec-
ton Of sites and styles Of construc-
ton he was often years ahead OF his
time. In a few years he had built ten
great theaters. one Of them in Phila-
delphia and another in London. One
| of these, the Victoria, has earned an
average income Of $250,000.

Des Moines. Aug. 2.-Iowa will feel
such coal shortage this coming win
ter, in case the threatened strike OF
miners materializes. as will make the
famines Of past winters look like a
sunny July day. according to Polk
county operators.
J. c. Lewis, president Of district IL,
United Mine Workers of America, now
is travelling about Iowa organizing a
demand by the miners for increased
wages and q six-hour working day,
which will be presented for approval
at the national miners meeting to be
held In Columbus, o., Sept. 9. The ex-
act scale to be demanded has not
been announced.
Des Moines operators say that there
is no coal reserve in Iowa, either at the
mines, in retail coal yards, or In
householders' cellars. There has been
practically no summer market, the
mines limited storage facilities have
been choked, and the mines have been
forced to shut down and wait for bust
ness. A report Of the United States
geological survey which consolidates
Iowa mining figures for the week end
ing July 10, shows that during that
week the mines were operated on an
average Of only 30 days each, and that
production was only so per cent OF
normal.
II strike comes It Will come at
time when the full-time operation OF
the mines is absolutely necessary to
keep up with the heavy fall coal de-
liveries, the operators point out. The
result will be cold homes in many
Iowa cities. almost from the first day
Of real winter
An increase in coal prices, whether
or not there Is a strike, is to be anti
cipated. Some Des Moines retail deal
ers are basing their contracts for fu-
ture deliveries on the assumption that
prices will go up Sept. I. There was
much talk, during the reign of Mr.
Garfield as boss of the nations coal
supply, that federal price fixing was
keeping prices down. instead Of keep.
ing them up.

Senator 0ronna, North Dakota,
urged the passage Of the bill to re-
lieve the farmers from wasting an
hour In the early morning when the
dew on the grain made It impossible
for them to go to work. He said
every farmers organization In the
country has petitioned to congress TO
repeal the law.
Senator Underwood, Alabama, said
he had supported the original day
light saving law as war measure
because he believed 1t would be OF
some advantage to war industries.
The war having passed.. he said he be-
lieved II best to go back to the old
method of recording time, and allow
It to be fixed by the sun rather than
by an act of congress.
II am one Of those old fashioned
democrats who believe that except in
time of emergency 1t Is wise to allow
the people to pursue the even tenor of
their way and adapt themselves to the
customs which have been followed
| from time immemor,al,' Senator
Underwood said.
Senator Lodge said that he would
vote against the repeal because he
felt 1T had been very valuable In in
dustrial communities. He raised a
laugh by referring to Senator Under
woods argument in favor Of fixing
time by the sun by saying that the
senator apparently had forgotten that
new day has dawned."

said, land we may expect some one

There are those who believe the prin-
ciples Of George washington should
