JAPANESE WORRIED
 ABOUT RUSS MONEY
Withdrawal of Paper Currency oi Kerensky Regime Causes Much
 COnsternation

Tokio. June g, Correspondence of the Onlsk government at Siberia to withdraw from circulation the paper money issued by the Kerensky regime has created Consternation among the Japanese Of Vladivostok and Harbin, who arc large holders of the Kercnskv notes. Banks conducted by Japanese have refused to accept Kerensky notes.
 The Omsk decree affects chiefly the small 20 and 40 rubles notes. For one month, conversion of the notes was to be conducted at banks after June 6, the notes were not to be accepted for conversion.
 Japanese manufacturers and busi- ness men in Siberia were panic stricken when the order was issued and sent telegram to the Japanese foreign office, asking for help.
 Dawn, a Russian newspaper, pub lished at Omsk, explains that the measure of withdrawal was taken to save the money situation in Russia which was going from bad to worse It says that the kerensky note exclu- sion bill aims at protecting the coun- try from being flooded with Bolshe- yik and bogus Kerensky bills, at the same time suppressing specula ton in ruble notes. The newspaper declares that the kerensFy paper has been is sued by the BoIshevik Sovicts far be- yond the limits of discretion, the total amount issued being estimated al nine million rubles.

GERMANY STRIVES
 10 WIN BACK TRADE
Already Begins to Exert Energy
 in Direction Of Italy

Rome (Correspondence of The Associated Press. )-Already German influence has been exercising itself in Italy in an endeavor to win back it's pre-War trade, which annually amounted to nearly two hundred million dollars-exports and imports.
 Interviews have recently been pull lished in Italian papers which en- deavor to establish the idea in the Italian mind that had Germany been consulted in the matter of Italian claims at the peace conference. Italy would have secured all that had been asked. This has been interpreted by many prominent Italians as purely a subtle bid for Italian patronage, an~ ticipating the resuscitation of friendly commercial relations between Italy and Germany.
 Chief among the interviews appear ing in Italy were those of Prince von Buelow and Count von Bernstorff. The former was married to an Italian and maintains in Italy one of the most celebrated villas. Italians con- tend that it was his object to solicit Italian favor when he said:
 "F'iume is an Italian town and must go to Italy. All of it's inlabi- tants are Italian except a small minority. Everything in Plume js Italian. In fact, most Hungarians living in Fiume arc more favorable to Italian than to Jugo-Slav rule.'
 Count von Bernstorff seeks, in his interview intended for the Italian people, to forgive Italy for allying herself with Ger1nany's enemies. He admits that had the ancient German despotic rule won, Italy would have never been forgiven but that the new Germany is ready to forget the past and start over again.
 His interview given to the Giornale d'Italia recently has been treated in the same light that of Prince von Buelow, while Italians are saying of 1t: we prefer to trust in victory than alternatives.'
 Count von Bernstorff failed to arouse any great enthusiasm among the Italians for the proffered for giveness.
 But the Germans have not been asleep in Italy. Already German goods are finding their way into the Italian markets. A Milan newspaper recently announced that a large ship raent of German jewelry had been received at the frontier destined for

Japanese Counsellor Makes Statement Exonerating Missionaries
 From All Blame

Tokio, June 5, Correspondence of American missionaries melted the ko- rean instruction are quite incorrect, according to a statement of K. Yosh- izawa, counsellor of the Japanese for eign office, who has returned after an investigation of the situation in Ko- req.
 Speaking to Japanese newspaper men MT. 1oshizaWa expressed the view that the disturbances were the outcome of a collision between the old fashioned thought of the Tendoyko cult and the modern thought produc- ed by the influence of Christianity. MT. Yoshizawa continued:
 "A lack of perfect understanding between Japanese and Koreans is one of the main causes of the disturbance, but the principal cause that led to the uprising is the discontent and con- plaint in the minds of the Koreans, which suddenly burst out, prompted by the newborn thought kindled by the principle of self f-determination. The simple and childish political thoughts of the Korean people can be well imagined from the fact that a large number of Koreans came to the government general at Seoul at the time of the disturbance in March and April and inquired of the officials about the truth of the alleged inde- pendence of Korea.
 How to save the future of Korea and Koreans is a grave question that seriously taxes the brain of the Jap anesc governm ent.'

MERCER PRAISES THE

Washington, D. C.-"Consumption-
worse and more serious than Boil
shevism, because it is undermining
the state by weakening our peo
ple-is among us like plague" de
c,ared Cardinal Mercier, Primate o1
Belgium, and spiritual hero of the war
in a statement made at National Red
Cross headquarters here. The Card
tnal had called at the Red Cross head
quarters to thank that organization
in person for what the Red Coss had
done for stricken Belgium.
4 Two American agencies were espe,
clally singled out for enthusiastic
| praise by His Emminence for what
they had done in Belgium-Hr Hoov-
ers Committee for the Relief Of Bel
GUM, and the American Red Cross.
His Eminence also spoke cordially OF
| the work now being done in Brussels
by the unit under the direction of the
National Catholic War Council
Your American Red Cross is mag
rificent,' said Cardinal Mercier, "and
the extent Of its work and it's mem.
bership is simply marvellous 1 am told
that your Red Cross has over twenty
million members OF course without
support from the whole American peo-
pie it would have been obviously in
possible to accomplish the wonderful
Dol
war. Such a national inspiration should
be captured and held for the benefit OF
society. 1t is extraordinary what can
be accomplished where a free people |
all unite and work together for their |
common good and for the good Of hu. |
manity.
"The mothers and little children OF
Belgium are utterly worn out from the
long strain" continued Cardinal Mer
cier, discussing the four years of oc
cupation Of Belgium by the Germans
"They must rest and play as much az
possible, for while, if the next gen.
Grafton is to be equal to the tasks that
await it."
1T was hardest of all to watch the
little children go without milk, espe.
clally the babies. For four years saw
them with my own eyes grow wan.
and thin for lack of milk to make
them strong and healthy. 1t was hard
so hard, to know that I was helpless
to aid them.
"COnsuption tuberculosis, is amona
us ike a plague. 1t is a danger far
more serious than Bolshevism, because
1t is undermining the state by weak
ening our people and reducing the pro
duction of necessary goods. We need
machinery in Belgium for our fac
tories, in order to make our people

TIN COW" FOR FRENCH BABIES.

WashingtOn.-Over in the Aisne
Somme and Ardennes districts ol
France, there are thousands and thou
sands of babies who will grow up il
the belief that milk grows in little til
cans, for in those districts the babies
go out to lunch daily with their moth
ers, and are fed by the big tin cow, -
which the Red Cross maintains there
1t is virtually impossible to obtair
fresh milk there, for this area with.
stood two invasions and two retreats
Oy the Germans, and there are no cows
for them.
In this emergency the Red Cross not
only promptly shipped in three car
loads of condensed milk, but agreed to
furnish an adequate supply of CON
densed milk for these districts during
the next six months. With Laon and
ST. Quentin as the distributing cen
tres. local French committees supply
from twenty to thirty ruined villages,
each with more than its share of un.
dernourished infants. The mothers
bring their babies to, milk station,
where they are daily fed, weighed and
given medical attention if required.

A NOrtherner'S Testimony

A Northern man. now living in the
South, writes to the New York Post to
confirm what so often has been stated
that the colored man, on the whole, is
fairly and justly treated in the South.
The writer is Lyman Ward, president
Of the Southern Industrial Institute at
amp Hill, Alabama. He came South
twenty-five years ago, and here is what
be says, while disparaging foolish utter
anccs on the race question on both
cid of the line:
At critical time in the career of
Booker Washington he said to me
that his wisest and best friend was
the white man in the South. And
among these friends he prayed that
he might draw his last breath.
Here he died, greatly honored by
by both races.
/ came South years ago. havs
Sc, n the negro in his upward pro-
gress all these years. l have long
since come to believe with all my
soul that the average white man is
just and honorable and kind to the
average negro. It is little short Of
an imposition for Northern people
to come down here and try to or
ganize the negro so that he may get
more rights. In this community
am the only Northern mal. l.
c,uld not ssk for hinder neighbofs,
nor men witha finer sense Of justice.
There has never been . mob here.
There never will be a mob any.
where i: men will speak in modcr.
alton and act with that charity
which an honest man must possess.
Let as hail no man a. leader who
breaches hatred and revolution.
On the whole, the relations between
he races in tho South have never been
,etter than now. and they will continue
o be such If Northern busybodies. self
constituted champions, viii stay away

oiored people. It is these words Mr..
Ward obviously has in mind. Perhaps
