JAZZ ANESE BARON
SAYS JAPs WANT
To HELP CHINA
The Only Reason They Insisted
on Having Former German
Colonies Is to Return to
China With Clear Title,
AZ MORNING louRnAL srEclAL LEASED wlssl

New York. May b.-PretaclnS an
address before the japanese society
here tonight with the declaration that
he was a private citizen" and did not
speak "in behalf of the japanese gov
eminent" Baron Shimpei Goto, for
mer minister of Japan, characterized
the Kioa-Chia Shantung situation as
not to be reviewed in the same light
as the Fiume question.
Japan has never demanded oCcu-
patton of the former German terri
tory of Kioa-Chau," he said. She
has repeatedly proclaimed to the
China after it was Internationally
given to her at the peace conference.
I'm the judgment of the japanese
government It was necessary FIR
Japan to establish an undisputed right
over the German territory before she
was in a position to restore it to
China. In returning Shantung to
China, Jauan's policy has been in
duced by the fear that the German
government may not be>able' to keep
the nrovince-that It may be virtually
mortgaged TO a third power to the
detriment not only of China but also
of Japan.
81 trust that satisfactory agreement
will soon be made between China and
Japan with a view to preventing such
an unfortunate development.
The coming few years will fur
nish a golden opportunity for the
japanese and American people to
translate into deeds their professed
and ! believe sincere desire to be
China's friends and well wshers.
Japan should follow the American
example and waive her claim to the
Boxer indemnity and ask China to use
the fund for the same purpose as the
American fund has been used, to ia
cilitate the education of the youth of
China.
China must codify laws in conso-
nance with modern principles of juris-
prudence and organize courts efficient
enough to win the confidence Of for
eigners. In this difficult undertaking
upon which China must soon embark,
Japan would consider it a privilege
to be of some service to her. We
wish to be the first nation to endorse
Chinas desire to put an end to the
inequitable, though inevitable. which
has so long hurt not only the pride
but the interests of China.
"May we not hope that all the civil
lized nations and especially the gov
eminent and people of America who
have played a prominent part in the
formation of the new world regime,
will cooperate with us IN the eXeCu-
ton of the reform and rehabilitation
which are most urgently noticed in
order to prepare China for the resto-
ration of complete sovereignty

This is vastly more important because

"THE KIDS CLEVER"
NOTHING BUT TRUTH.
AUDIENCES VERDICT

"The. Kids Clever"-of the literal
truth of the claim in the title of the
play nut on by the Elks las night, all
the people who could be packed into
the Crystal theater will readily testi-
fy. The only reason more people did
not see it was because the theater
would not hold more.
The acting was good, the dances
were good. the costumes We're good,
and the play written both as to dia-
logue and music, and staged by Joe
Scott, was clever from start to finish,
and the audience applaudcd and en-
cored so much that the close was de-
layed until near midnight. Had the
people been n little more moderate in
their enthusiasm for the local talent,
the play would have beeh over easily
an hour earlier,
Everybody expected Grace Stortz in
the part of Marigold Lee, the shy
Quaker girl, to be very good, and they
were not disappointed. She was
charming. Hortense Swit2er the
aunt, and Bill Mcdonald, the uncle
we'll. they couldn't be beat Then
there was Joe McCanna, who played
Forelock Domes, and the French
count who didn't count after ALTO
say that there was anything to be de-
sired in his acting except another
scene in which to see a little pore of
it would be a grave mistake.
The chorus was young and beauti-
full. and the other qualifications of a
successful chorus were not lacking.
Bunny and Patsy, the war time mes
senger boys, played by Nelma Pritch-
ard and Ruth Tompkins, respectively,
were there with the pep every minute.
1t would not be a history of the play
if mention was not made of George
Washington White, alias Dr. Watson,
in every day life Ernest Landolfi the
only colored gentleman in the play
and a favorite with the audience as
well as with the rest of the characters
on the stage.
Not only was The kld Clever,
but all of the kids were clever

RUTH GARRISON
TELLS STORY Of
POISONING RIVAL
Eighteen-Y ear-0Id Girl Relates
Simple Story of Sordid Plot
to Crowded Court Room in
Seattle, '--
lay MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wrRsI

Seattle, Wash, May G.-For three
hours today Ruth Garrison, the 49,
year-old girl charged with first de-
gree murder for poisoning Mrs, Grace
Glatz Storrs, her rival for the love OF
d. M. Storrs, on March IS last, told
the tragic details of her life, her love
and her confessed crime to crowded
court room.
The story was simple. The prosecu-
ton had called fifteen witnesses and
in less than two hours completed its
case without ss-eXamination by
the defense. 7. NJ Askren, for the de-
Tense, then presented his opening
statement. His charge that Storrs sug-
gested to Miss Garrison indirectly the
poisoning of his wife brought from the
girl her first emotion. When she took
the stand later however, she told her
story unfalteringly.
Askren declared Miss Garrison was
mentally irresponsible for her crime
Miss Garrison testified to leaving
her sisters home and taking an apart
ment at Storrs suggestion. She told
of visiting him in Okanogan, where he
worked as an automobile mechanic,
and of meeting between Storrs, his
wife and herself, at which Mrs. Storrs
promised to divorce her husband if
he would marry Miss Garrison.
Mrs. Katherine V. McCue. who she
said saw Miss Garrison stir the pois-
oned cocktail that killed Mrs. Stofrs,
was on the stand.
on the day she poisoned Mrs. Storrs,
Miss Garrison said, after she had in
vited Mrs Storrs to luncheon, she was
walking down town and sit came to
my mind like flash that | could put
something in what she was to eat. At
ter that nothing under the sun could
stop her from taking it.
she obtained the poison, saying that
she wished 1t to kill a cat. At the de-
partment store she ordered lunch for
two. The waitress brought first the
cocktails.
Before I went in the tea room, !
Miss Garrison continued, Il loosened
the cork in the bottle. When the
cocktails were brought took the bot
tie out of my pocket and poured a
very little bit into the cocktail very
little bit. / took spoon and dipped
it in the cocktail"
After Mrs. Storrs had drank her
cocktail and fell back in her chair in
a convulsion, Miss Garrison testified
she asked:

ness is probably in its nature less elias
tic than any other business and SHOWS
more quickly the embarrassment OF
readjustment.
"The entire railroad organization is
working most earnestly to feadJust
these costs to meet present conditions,
but the nature of the railroad busl-
ness, whether under private or PUBIC
control, is such that to a very large
extent it is impossible to offset loss IN
business by a corresponding readlust-
ment. on the other hand, when there
shall be a substantial increase the rev.
enues therefrom will largely be re-
Elected in the net, because the costs
will not be correspondingly Increased.
1t is believed that this Improvement
will be considerably emphasized by
reason of the fact that maintenance
work has been carried forward during
the favorable weather of January,
February and March, on a liberal ba-
sis, despite unfavorable business ana
this reflects in a saving in cost later
in the year.
In the midst of the present post
war reimbursement it is impossible to
make any confident statement as to
the resources of the railroad opera
tions for the remainder of this calen-
dar year.
ut is my policy to give the public
the facts and. where the inference to
be drawn is doubtful, to RESOLVE the
doubt in such way as to avoid the risk
of making statement more favorable
than the ultimate facts will justify
