that the same should be approved"
Now that punishment has been pro-
yided for the Central Powers and their
associates in the war, Judge Gary said,
instead of INDUCING sentiments of hate
OF revenge we should be wise enough to
consider the effect upon our own inter-

From an economic standpoint" he
went on, Considering of paramount sig
nincance the question of benefit to our

relations with Germany and Austria at

many articles of commerce which we
need and desire and which are not pro-

MGR. J. F. STILLEMANS
IS HONORED BY POPE
Pupil of Cardinal Mercier Is
Made Domestic PreIofe.

ROME, Sept. Pope Benedict has
conferred the insignia of the Knight
Commander of the Order of Plus TX.
on Count Galarza y Perez Catanda
Spanish Minister to Peru, and the Grand
Cross of the Order of st. Sylvester on
Michael Perea of Montevideo. He also

Bryan of San Francisco.
The Pope named Mgr. Joseph F. Stille-
mans of New York city as his domestic
prelate.
Mgr. Joseph F. Stillemans formerly
was pupil of Cardinal Mercier, the
Belgian Primate. He was regarded as
one OF the best informed men in this
country on conditions in Belgium, and
for that reason was made president of
the Belgian Bureau in New York, with
headquarters at 431 West Forty-sev-
enth street. Before our entrance into
the European war he was active in or
ganizing and directing relief work in
the oppressed country, and caused many
Belgian children to be brought to this

cases Of Japanese soldiers burning whole
villages when they were baked In their
attempt to outrage innocent women. The
Japanese authorities also forced on the
farmers their military notes, Just as
they are now doing in Siberia, in ex-
change for commodities, &C. II Is no
exaggeration to state that in reality
China suffered and lost more than did
Japan In the reduction OF the German
forces In Shantung.
Japan has been parading before the
world that she will return Kiao-Chau
with its sovereignty to China. As a
matter of fact the sovereignty of the
kiao-Chau territory has never left China,
as in the leased convention 1t was ex-
pressly reserved, although China under
took to abstain from exercising her
sovereign rights. Surely the word ''ab-
| stain" does not mean forfeit or sur
render. And what wlif-the return OF
Kiao-Chau mean to China II Japan re-
tains, as she now insists upon doing, the
economic rights, consisting OF mines,
railways, &c. in the Shantung province
II Is like the return of an empty shell

why Japan Is n Peril.

Frankly China would prefer to have
Germany in Shantung instead of japan,
II that were the only alternative, be-
cause Shantung is far removed from
Germany, while in the hands of the
Japanese there is added danger to China
on account of Japan's already strongly
fortified possessions in Corea and South
Manchuria
Mr. Matsuoka also states that the
Shantung railway will be under Chino
Japanese management. But that is no
gain for China because the Shantung
railway was under joint Chinese German
management and many Chinese were en-
ployed in the railway service. whereas
now they have been almost entirely re-
placed by Japanese.
IF an International settlement is to be
for the interests OF all nations, as Mr..
Matsuoka claims, it is well to bear in
mind that only recently the American
Standard Oil Company was compelled to
sell out its premises in Tsingtao. We
may also call attention to how Japan is
operating in Manchuria against the open
door policy and how in recent years in
Manchuria American and European bust
ness firms had to close up their business.
Just now she is trying to exclude that
region and Mongolia from the new in
ternational consortium.
Mr.. Matsuoka feigns surprise at the
fact that Japan's good faith has been
questioned by leading Americans in the
