Mr.. oavI.on's Announcement.

Mr. 0AVt8ON RuUoOUSSVsV"ss
As Henry P. Dnvison, chairman of
the war council, said In announcing
the organizations after-the-war policy :
Always, as heretofore, any plans
adopted will assure complete cO-Opera-
ton with the respective governments
and with amy agencies with whom re
lations may be established.
What the future is to be. no one
can say. But that there will be an ap-
pealing cry OF humanity from all over
the world. no one can doubt. The
needs. Of France, Belgium, Italy. Rus
sia and the Balkans will not terminate
with the formal declaration of peace.
A hard winter is ahead. Exposure and
the hardships of war and the dIslo-
Gated industrial conditions of the
world have produced hunger. want and
disease. .-.
POLITICALLY the outlook for a new
and better world is bright. but the
economic conditions are ominous.
There will be such distress In the
world that 1t cannot be met by volun-
tary organizations. Governments them
selves must bear the chief burden. and
l am confident that cooperation be-
tween the governments may be relied
upon In an endeavor to meet this
wholesale work Of relief which will be
needed. y
I'm addition to this, there will. how
ever. be the necessity and opportunity
for supplementary work which Red
world can do. should do and must do.

tiers, and the women In other countries

II seems far cry from the great
world war to styles in cOrsets. Yet
even In corsets. which seem 30 incon-
seQuential and so small an item In
the worlds business. the war has
changed manufacturing methods. and
1t looks as II II would have u lasting
effect on the garment. Prices of cor

There Is no immediate prospect of
tleir coming down again. For year
Mt lenst the French corset fabrics will
not be imported in sufficient quanti-
ties to influence price and the labor
item is difficult to handle. Manufac-
penses in every, other direction will
hesitate to cut down wages. So, we
must reconcile ourselves to the pres
ent required expenditure and hope
that it will not advance.
The low bust proves itself the most
comfortable and the most graceful Of
corset models. In fact there Is no
particular reason for mentioning the
bust at all in connection with new
models that extend only an inch or so
above the waistline. The bust is really
ce-seted by the brassiere and the
lungs and diaphragm are not subject
ed 90 the slightest pressure. Curves
are long IN figures corseted In this
way-a consummation devoutly to be
wished.
Fewer bOhes-Or steeis-are used
in the new models than ever before.

blessing in disguise. Even the stout

japanese in Lower
California
Mexico Grants Rights to Corn
Corporation

Mexico City. Saturday, March 90
That Japanese corn corporations have
been granted concessions to eXplol
AGRICULTURAL lands in Lower Califcr
MIA was the statement nlaGe late TO
day by Gen Amado Aguierre, under
secretary Of development and agri
culture.
The affirmation was made, however
that the concessions were fully au'
thorized by the provisions of the Mex
ican constitution regarding the erea
and position of the territory in rela.
ton to the ocean shore and the from
tier line.
There was nothing in the conces-
sions, it was asserted by the under
secretary, that might possibly lead
to difficulties as far as the Monroe
doctrine was concerned.
Reports that there is a possibility
oe International controversy over the
granting Of the concessions to the
Japanese were said to be absurd by
Gen. Amado Aguierre in an interview
earlier in the day, in which he said
the action was legal. AT that time
he would not admit the concession
had been granted. The japanese le-
CATION here denied 1T had any official
knowledge Of the action. In the in
terview, General Aguierre is quoted
as follows:
rIt is absurd to give credit to, or
take seriously, the news published To-
,day that there is imminent an inter
nationa! conflict because OF tho fact
that japanese subjects or companies
are arranging to acquire lands IN
Lower California, said to belong TO
tho California & Mexican Land COM
pany Of Los Angeles.
In the first place. the lands which
were given by o concession in 1881 to
the Mexican Land Company were de-
clared the property Of the pre-con-
stitutional government on April I,
1917, which action renders Void the
concession granted to the Mexican
Land Company Since then the gov
ernment has appointed n commission
TO divide the lands and sell them to
Mexicans IN small lots.
Moreover, even though japanese
companies do propose to acquire, IS
is alleged, huge tracts Of land iii
Lower California they can not be AID.
ed by our government Stree the
Mexican constitution in Article Ii on

Berlin, March % (By the Asso-
ciated Press General Nudant, rep
resenting Marshal Foch on Wednes-
day. submitted a note to the German
government demanding a passage
through Danzis> for the Polish divis-
ions under General Haller, which are
a part OF the allied army and permits
sion for their march to Poland to
maintain order. The note added that
any refusal would be regarded as a
Breach of the armistice.
The German government, after eX-
haustive deliberations by the party
leaders, replied that according to the
arnlistice, it was only obliged TO
grant the allies free access to che Vis-
tula to maintain order in territories
Of the former Russian empire. In
concluding the treaty, the govern
naent declared, it proceeded in any
ease from the standpoint that tn 9re
could be no question Of Polish troops
during the journey Of Ignace Jan
Paderewski, the Polish premier who
grossly violating the hospitality ac-
corded him on German soil, gave the
signal for revolt and civil war and
who. when he was in Danzig in De-
cember, 1918, said: If the Polish di-
vision from France and Italy should
be in Danzig, then Danzig and. al
west Prussia would be Polish.
Proceeding, the note refers to nu-
merous demands by the German ma
jority IN west Prussia who wish to
resist Polish attacks by force, and
fays that by such civil warfare the
German eastern front against Rus
sian Bolshevism will be endangered.
In conclusion the communication
asked for information as to the COM
position and strength of General HAL
ler's army, the date Of its landing
