JOHN POWELL In
CONCERT TONIGHT

John Powell, the pianist, who is to
play tonight at the New Century Club
auditorium, has arrived in Wilmington,
and is the guest Of the Rev. DR.. Freder-
lck NJ. Klrkus, rector of the Trinity
Protestant Episcopal Church. There
Is every prospect Of most successful
recital. In fact, the seat sale has been
surprisingly large.
Speaking last evening, OF his own
compositions, Of which he viii tonight
play his sonata Noble" Mr.. Powell
very frankly voiced the opinion that
American born composers and Ameri-
can recitalists, partly as result Of the
war, Will come, and very shortly, into
much more force than heretofore.
There Is no question" remarked Mr..
Powell, but that Wilmington possesses
all the elements Of a thoroughly Amer
lean city-and when. you say thor
oughly American that means love OF
the best IN music, literature and all OF
the fine arts.
Il haven't forgotten the splendid re-
ception / received in Wilmington upon
my last recital here. And you must
know that, after all, the true artist, to
gain his audience, must first find it re-
ceptive, then convince it Of his own
ability and then-and here is whore
The audience comes in-receive ap-
plause worthy Of him. Wilmington
audiences / know are sympathetic and
warm in their appreciation, Of the good
and true in music"
AR. Powell was asked about the flat
tcring notices he has received Of late
from the New York press. With typi-.-
cal American modesty. he responded:
"0h, as TO that ! play, and play my
best"
What with a large and appreciative
audience assured, Mr. PoweI's recital
at the New Century tonight should
prove high point in the musical sea-

PEACE-TIME SUITS
OF SOCIETY BRAND

'Back to Peace Clothes" IS the
basis Of the design this season OF the
Society Brand Clothes for young men
and men who stay young" which are
featured at Koshland's. No. s2l Mar
ket street. The Koshland store has the
exclusive selling agency in Wilmington
OF this popular line and the hearty re-
ception accorded It here by the men
who know clothes. strongly justifles
Mr.. Koshland's judgment in obtaining
it for Wilmington. From coast to coast
and from the lakes TO the gulf So
ciety Brand Clothes are synonymous
with well dressed men.
The designers Of Society Brand
Clothes for the current season have
taken cognizance Of the fact that the
average man who has been in the SER
vice has broadened in his physical as
well as mental proportions. At the
same time, there has been a studied
effort to give his clothes the old snap"
Of the service uniform.
Small details are big things in max
ing Society Brand Clothes. Garments
are cut one at a time. The trimmings.
Innings, buttons, are matched or con-
trasted with the woolens; and, In the
general construction, each garment is
tailored separately according 10 uni
form specifications, wherein even the
threads. for the various operations in
dicate the standard OF excellence.
Every tailor is trained 10 observe the
niceties Of workmanship that give
suit character and make the stylish
lines as lasting as the all-wool fabric.
With Society Brand Clothes there
are 40 other famous makes that go to
complete Koshland's service for this
season.

CONFIRMS JAPANESE RIGHTS

One treaty specifically pledges
China ito rCcogn Zc all matters that
may he agreed upon between japan
and Germany respecting the diSpoSi
tion Of all the rights, interests and
concessions which Germany possess
cs Wis avis China in Shantung." China
thus rcconiXcs Japan'S right to these
leases for 99-ycars
Here is II confirmation by China of
all Japanese rights acquired, or that
may he acquired, from Germany.
These rights, supported by American
recognition OF Japanese special in
tercsts in China under the Lansing
Ishii agreement are of such vast
Importance to Japan that their sur
render forms another barrier to the
acceptance by Japan Of :hc league OF
nations, in addition to that OF racial
discrimination.
Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1919-03-22

Japan has given notice that she will
not join the league of nations as it is
now framed.
The combat must be radically
amended if Japan is to become Il mem
hcr,' and those amendments would
bring tho lcnguc into direct conflict
with the principles Of Amcricanism
to the preservation Of which Il suffi-
Client number of senator's to defeat the
adoption of the league have pledged
themselves.
If Japan should not join the league
the only great nations outside OF the
league would he Germany, Russia. and
Japan, and all Of them would be in
the position Of outCaSts. This reflect
ion gives rise to the fear that if ia
pan should be driven into thiS posi-
ton. tho logical consequence would be
an alliance between Japan, Rus
Stl--and Germany.
