 Six women are seeking Democratic nominations to the assembly in this state this summer. Socialist women aspirants are even more numerous. But, of course old line party folks, men or women, are more static than the radical party adherents. Women candidates of Democratic or Repubfi- can allegiance have been cofnparafi ve- ly few in number since woman sui frage arrived and those who have yen tured into the political arena have kept to conventional political practices and principles.

Of Japanese families residing in the

This increase Is most notable in the

The increase in the japanese pop

held recently at Newcastle, in Placer

japanese births were nearly twice the

there were 81 japanese born in Placer

Japanese Film Censors
Kill Thousands of Kisses

The police of Japan did not
like to see kissing In public, and,
therefore. film stars are not per-
mitted to osculate on the screen.
In six months up to March / the
police censors removed 2,35O
kisses from the films.
Only one kiss was allowed to
remain. 1t was a kiss granted
to Columbus by Queen Isabella
and was shown In Toxic only, as
the censors deleted It before
permitting the photoplay "Co-
lumbus" to appear in the
provinces.
Three hundred and fifty-three
embraces were omitted from
films, states the Far East. The
titles Of 2,144 photoplays were
altered by the censors and 127
murder scenes were killed.
Reels entirely prohibited num-
bered 81.
Most films shown In Japan are
from America and a large pro-
portion of them originally con-
tain a little kiss or so, showing
the difference In standard be-
tween the East and West.

The Big Dirisible

The r "a and her sister airship.
the R.3S, are the worlds greatest
dirigibles. The war brought them
into being, for they originally we're
designed to outvie Germany's Zep-
pelins and bring death and destruc-
tion to German cities. When they
were building it was reported that
they would be the flseships of a
gigantic feet of aircraft that would
be launched on tremendous air
raid on Berlin. For this purpose
they were equipped with openings
through which four 800 pound
bombs and 16 of 120 pounds could
be dropped. while on the upper
structure emplacements were built
for batteries of eight guns
The sudden end of the world war
put a stop to the plans for raid
on Berlin and the architects of the
dirigibles turned their attention to
Femodeling their craft for peaceful
purposes. But their plans were
again interrupted in June when the
war clouds regathered at reports
that Germany would refuse to ac'
cept the Allied peace terms. The
R-3 was swiftly put in war trim
and started on cruise of 1000
miles over the Baltic and the Ger.
man coast regions. She carried no
bombs, but. equipped with rapid. fir.
ing guns. swept over the enemy's
territory at a low altitude, her enOr
nous shadow making a grim threat
of the possibilities.
The cruise was without mishap
and when peace finally was assured
the crew of the R-34 resumed pre-
parations for the historic flight to
America. Originally, II was planned
that the voyage should be made by
the R.33 also, but it was decided
that too much time would be need
ed to remodel the sister ship
The r "a was built in InchiDnan,
a little village near Glasgow. In
size she rivals all but the very lare
est ocean liners. Her length is SAC
feet; her beam 70 feet and from the
bottom of her lowest gondola to the
