ing the liquor traffic in this city for

KINDNESS In TREATMENT
OF KOREANS is ADVISED
Director OF Affairs in Korea
So Urges in an Address
lRy Tie A.sncintcd Pm

TOXIC, Jan. 7.-Dr. Mizuno, di-
rector of administrative affairs Of
the Korean govcrnment-gercral told
the Seiyukai party the other day that
to regard the Koreans ~ uncivilized
and ignorant people and merely bring
pressure upon them as such for adj
mnistrative purposes was by no
means timely policy adapted to the
existing state Of affairs. 1t was of
vital importance. he said. to treat
the Koreans with kindness and benev-
olence and guide them to progress
and development.
But as 10 the independence move
ment advocated and carried on BY d
section of Koreans, he declared that
such intrigue must be suppressed by
decisive measures.

COLLECT DUTIES
ON RETAIL items
TO MATAMOROS
Small Imports of Value of
More Than One or Two
Pesos Now Dutiable

For the first time since 1913 the
Matamoros customs officials are en-
forcing the import tax on even small
importations, i'm amounts in excess of
one or two pesos. The collections OF
these small imports are being made
By the collectors at the bridge and
ferry to obviate the necessity Of the
importer carrying the supplies to the
customs house. Consular invoices il
amounts Of less than ten pesos arc
also being waived.
Because of subnormal conditions
in Mexico, brought about by the revo
luton, making il impossible for the
residents Of Matamoros and othe'
border towns To secure the nccessar.
foodstuffs in Mexico the Mexican
government issued temporary order
setting aside the collection of this
tax. An Inspector Of the customs
service who visited Matamoros last
month, however, found conditions 50
greatly improved and production on
the Mexican side so greatly increased
that the exemption was deemed no
longer necessary The import duty
varying with the value of the COM
modify, on small shipments is not ex-
cessive and. officials say, will work
no hardship on the people at this
time

De VALERA'S SPEECHES
READ WITH SURPRISE
Sentiments Differ from Those
of Supporters, it is Said


DUBLIN, Jan. 7.-Eamonn De
Valera's speeches in America with
regard TO the part played by Irish
soldiers in the war have been read in
ireland with some surprise. and it is
pointed out here that in this matter
Mr.. De Valera's sentiments differ "a
good deal from those Of his support
ers. Captain M'Walter. Dublin
physician and member Of the Dublin
Municipal Council, who served
throughout the war in the army med
ical corps, writes as follows in the
Dublin Press:
"All the eX-service men, and there
are over 10000 Of US, were pleased
10 find Mr.. De Valera assuring his
American audience that we fought
for a principle and that Irishmen in
the earlier days Of the way rushed to
the ranks in overwhelming numbers.
But whilst Mr.. De Valera rightly in
terprets our position TO the Ameri-
cans his followers and supporters in
Dublin never cease to pour contume-
~ on Irish soldiers and to heap every
indignity possible upon them.
Returned soldiers are treated as
lepers rather than as heroes. Men
who had not the manliness to fight
either in the army or in the rebellion
now find courage TO persecute by
every means in their power those
army or ex-army men whom De Va
lera lauds. and even carry their vim
dictiveness against every man who
helps them"
