TO COMPETE
FOR PACIFIC RULE
tBy United Press


TOXIC. Feb 6.--(Bl MaiD-Japan's
plans to compete for trans Pacific
freight carrying supremacy were adj
vanced greatly today in the announce
ment of perfected details for com
pany which will be Japans biggest
freight steamship concern.

Ocean Trar sport company will prob
ably be named managing director and
autitor OF the new corporation, which
will be called the Taiyo Kaisen Kai-
sha of Ocean Steamship company.
and viii deal exclusively with freight.
The new firm. which will have its
head office at Kobe, win have capi-
tai of 2O.000,O0O yen. II win put eight
freighters in the trans-Pacific trade
This fleet will aggregate 10000 tons
and Will, for the most part, be COM
pleted this year, at cost of approxi-
mately $4,000, 0OO yen.
THE indication" said Ishida, point
to the keenest rivalry ever waged by
steamship companies, and we must be
in position to compete on an equal
footing with any of the other COM
petitors in the trans-Pacific business.
We are not aware of the number Of
steamships in England, America and
other nations that are gradually re-
suming their former oriental service.
Nevertheless. it is our belief that ship
ping on the Pacific as well as on tht
Atlantic, wiz be as prosperous in the
future as it was before the war, and
probably more so. y great number
of ships win beIpeqquired Cor Euro
pean trade. for transportation of re-
construction materials and food
stuffs. Y..

President Taft said:
"Tlle gentlemen in the senate who
are setting out &c SscfcsS tnis league of
nations are those would not trust
over night.
''TheS are citing the constitution as
an argument against it. 1 revere and
worship that great instrument, and il
is a new story to me if the constitu-
tiOn prevents this people from playing
their part ina bringing peace and order
and happiness to ourselves and the
other peoples OF the world.
''This is not political question.
God forbid. I am glad President Will
SON went to Europe, because he went
bearing a promise of league of ma
tions. mM A~bsn
The application at this time of the
doctrine of avoiding entangling alIi-
ances is reactiORary to the extent of
delaying world peace one hundred
years. The question at this time is
whether the whole great plan of the
league of nations is TO be defeated
because we can't get a two-thirtls ma
joritS of our senate for its ratirica-
ton
Between the advice of the
petty and narrow Republican
leadership in Michigan and the
broad minded Americanism
shown by Mr.. Taft it viii not
be hard for people to choose.
Should the Republican party
as whole take the Michigan
view the party would become
extinct.

when a witness, Mrs. Ernest Prall,
tainted just outside the court room door.
The woman. evidently in weak physical
condition. had testified that the company
was tardy In its assistance at the time
that her husband was called to the Dor

lions by objections. but the woman be-
came hystericaf. She was excused from
redirect examination and went sobbing
to the rear Of the room, and a moment
later. pushing through the swinging
doors, fell into faint She was taken
taken to a hotel.
Mrs. Leatha Rogers testified that upon
applying at the Ford legal department
regarding possible assistance during the
absence OF her husband on the Mexican
border at the time OF mobilization OF
troops, whether she would be required
to pay taxes and keep up payments on
new home, she got the following
answer: You know Mr.. Ford's attitude
toward the war. All I can say IL that
MI. Rogers Id very unfortunate"
Mr.. Ford was present when this testi-
nony was given. He also listened to
Mrs. Estella Champney. a Detroit news
paper writer. who tested that Ford told
her in 1915 that the calling out of the
National Guard was simply a political
move. She identified her story written
on the subject. which Is as follows: I'VE
do not know the situation in Mexico.

freely. It looks as IL the interests were
