U. s. OBJECTS
 TO JAPAN BEING
 ON SAGHALIEN

Tokio, July 29-(By A.. P.)-The Japanese government has~received a communication from the United States pointing out that Amer:"a is unable to recognize Japan's ocoupa- ton of the northern half of the island of SaghaMen.
 It is considered likely that Japan, after mature deliberation will for ward an answer to Washington in an attempt to clarify official opinion there and remove any misunderstood ing of Japan's position.
 There are indications that Japan is passing through another nervous crisis" concerning her relations with the United States. Numerous inter- pellations have been made in the diet about the American attitude. While the important newspapers are coun- selling their readers to keep cool it is apparent that a certain amount of ap- prehension exists concerning the re- suit of the Congressional inquiry in California. The Japanese, however seem convinced that it is being con ducted with the utmost fairness and attention is being called to state ments that a number of Americans have come forward spontaneously to testify in favor Of the Japanese Among the incidents which have tended to fan anti-American feeling was the publication here of the re- ports that the burning of Japanese stores in Marysville. California was
 possibly the act of anti-Japanese ele- ments. Articles also have been print ed declaring that Americans were en. gagged in attempts to steal Japanese maps, and these hove resulted in in creased surveillance of American tourists.
 With regard to the MarysviIle affair | the foreign office today gave out ca bie message from Consul General Ota in San Franciseo that the fires start ed July 21 in an automobile garage owned 1 by an American and that three oi four Japanese houses were burned | The consul general called attention te l reports that were current chasing the | case as ineendiarism due to under selling of white merchants by Jap aness merchants in Marysvi1ie, and consequently resentment on the part of the former but he added that the police denied that this was the fact The censu1 general concluded by de elarings
 'It Is unbelievable that the case waf ene of ineendiafism connected witf aati-Japanese agitators.''
 To ths consul generals message the foreign office in its statement adds 3 denial that any of it's officials ha6 made statements to the Japanese press that they thought the fire the work of aaH-Japanese agitatofs. l There seems no foundation what. ever for reports of map stealing.

PROF LESSOR TELLS
 "WHAT AHS US''

Bloomington, Ind, July 29- Speaking here at the closing session of the rural educational conference on the subject 'fWhat Ails Us," Pro- lessor G. I. Christie, of Purdue Uni versity, asserted that there were "too many diamonds and not enough alarm clocks; too many serge suits and not enough overal1s."
 As an tnducement to keeping the boys on the farm he advocated closer and more friendly relations between city business men and the farmer, stating that the farmer cannot com pete with the business man in the payment of high wages, which has caused an acute shortage of farm help.

H0MERULE AND COUNTY OPTION

Dublin, July 2e-Dorninion home rule. for Ireland with county option for Ulster seems to meet with in creasing favor in Irish political 9fr- c1es.
 Nationalfsts hitherto violently op- posed to this course as being a par ittion of Ireland, have come around to favor it and have the support of the Freeman'- Journal which in re- cont months under a new proprie- torship could not be distinguished from the Sim Fein organs.
 Although Sim Fein leaders in the press and on the platform continue to repudiate all compromises the story is circulated privately that Eamonn bevalera has sent word that a dominion settlement should be &C., eepted and tha tseyeral leading Sim Feiners at home believe this to be ahe best policy, This story is not generally credited but it has affected many minds and is responsible te some extent for the more sankuine outlook,
 In circles in touch with official epia- ion it is believed that the govern ment will insist en passing the pres ent home rule bill at the autumn session,

NAZIM0VA MAKES HIT
 IN "OUT OF THE FOG

"Out of the Fog" in which the great Nazimova is seen, will be re- peated tonight for the last time at the Empress. It is powerful and intense story of the sea, dealing with elemental human emotions and pas sions. The play, which was adapted for the screen for the stage drama "'Ception Shoals created a furore during it's long New York run, and brought Nazimova much of the fame which she has attained as an actress of supreme emotional parts.
 The story has all the moods and changes of the vast sea about which it centers-storms and passions of when the heavy and enshrouding fog of despair rolls in to hide the hOri- human tragedy, dull and cloudy days zon, but which later is dispelled by the blazing sunshine of romance and love, which give happy ending to this gripping drama.

REORCANIZINC
 REGULAR ARMY
 lSPR0CRESSINC

WASHINGTON, July 29 (by Asso- ciated Press Americas military es- tablishment is being practically revo- sutionized under the terms of the new army reorganization bill which became effective July 1. Army officers say the work will not be completed for some months because of the broad scope of the measure passed at the last session of congress to place the land forces on permanent peace basis.
 While the regular army will contain only 295,OOO officers and men scat tered over the country and the insular possessions, it will be so arranged in conjunction with the national guard and the reserve that rapid expansion of the nations forces in time of emer- gency will be possible
 The national guard will have about 44O,000 officers and men, but the strength of the reserve has not yet been worked out and will depend largely on the enlistment of eIigibles -Fhe regular army reserve as it for merly existed, composed of former en- listed men furloughed to the reserve 50 complete their enlistment period, ceased to exist as such on July l. In its place there is established the en- listed reserve corps and the officers reserve corps. The members of the former, except veterans of the world war, are required to enlist for three years. Veterans of the world war may enlist for only one year.
 The officers reserve corps is com posed of officers who held temporary or reserve commissions during the war emergency and graduates of the student officers training school
 To accomplish the reorganization of the national guard and the initial or ganization of the reserve, the army bill provides for general committee to be composed of regular army gen. ,> eral staff officers and an equal num- Der of reserve or national guard off, cers. In addition, 52 other commit tees, representing each state and ter ritory, will arrange the national guard organization in each state and terri tory. Some of these committees have not been appointed by the governors and consequently this work has not yet been put under way.
 While no full plan of organization has been made public, tentative plan to be placed before the committees would divide the country into nine districts with an army corps in each. This corps would consist of one regu- lar, one guard and. two reserve divi- sions, which theoretically would be the only ones much below war strength, could be filled up with selec- tive service men. A full quota of off, cers drawn from the officers reserve corps would be available for these divisions at all times.
 The new regular army strength pro- vides for approximately 17,00O com missioned officers. To provide this number about 1000 reserve and tenn porary officers have been kept on duty and it is the plan to reach the full officer strength by commissioning about 1000 such officers and enlisted men in the permanent army. Officers and men to be so commissioned will be selected by board, known as the Pershing board, headed by General

Sir: The phenomenal success of The

surprising. 1t demonstrates that voters
are numerous who think 1nte1Iigently
for themselves. To make this evident,
and thereby induce as far as possible
the great majority to do likewise. is
great work and should prove of much
Importance to the Republican party.
1t is only when the voter thinks and
acts wisely from a political point Of
view that a government by the people
for the people can be for the greatest
good Of the people.
BY the concerted action of honest,
thoughtful opinion, honest, unselfish
members will be elected to Congress
and men Of strength and nobility Of
character will be chosen to administer
the affairs Of the state.

found that the present Administration

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The country wants and is 20
ing to get Republican administration.
When 1924 comes the party must be
IN position to go before the voters
with this record:
They Americanized the "league of
nations"
Protected American lives and prop-
erty IN all parts Of the world.
Built up merchant marine and pro-
tected 1t with necessary laws.
Made our consular service something
that meant career for a man with
ability and initiative
Installed the budget system.
Eliminated pork barrel appropria-
tons" thereby helping to reduce taxes.
Brought the Liberty bonds back to
par value
Adopted universal training.
Compelled education and American
lzation Of our foreign-born.
Strengthened out the railroads.
These things and many others must
be done and there Is only the Repub-
ican party to achieve them. We have
been going backward under the present
Administration, but from March. 1921,
We shall 60 forward.
We want big, honest and fearless
man, wiIling'to take advice from others,
but not too proud to fight" for what

Gives Cure for Autocracy
of Cabinet Members in
Advance Seen as Safeguard

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: So long as we continue democ-
racy democratic principles must be ad-
hered to, with, however, the restrictions
and provisions already supplied by the
Constitution. I favor the publication
before election by the different Presi-
Dental candidates of the Cabinet ap-
pointments they will make in the event
of their election.
This would at least do something
toward relieving this modern democ-
racy of the flavor Of temporary autoc-
racy from which it has at times suf-
fered.
No one man can combine within him
self the knowledge and wisdom nee
cssary to handle satisfactorily all the
departments of government, and poor
judgment in the selection of Cabinet
officers, or their appointment for po-
litical reasons rather than for innate
fitness, may go far to mar an admin
istration headed by an Executive of
unusual ability in other respects.

Fair Play for Negroes
In Educational Rights
Equal School Facilities Urged
as Means of Promoting
Equality of Races
Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The Republican party is his
torically the natural protector of the
negro. The negro needs this protec-
tion nowhere more than in securing
equality with whites in educational
opportunities. The Constitution de-
clares that no citizen shall be denied
equal protection of the laws because
of race.
But public schools for negroes are
far inferior in most states to those
for whites Not only arc the schools
worse, but the staff is smaller In the
ten states having the largest negro
population there are 2,6s2,918 white
public school pupils. with 1o1 ,S06
teachers; but 1,13O,319 negro pupils.
with only 2S,814 teachers.
Every state should be required to
apply its school funds to tho equal
advantage of both races. The negro
question never can be solved as long
as we deny colored children q decent
education. A. OTIS.

Aliens Fall Easy Prey

Sir: The practical effect Of ouS

It is not reasonable to admit to all
the advantages Of this wonderful eoun-
try Of ours q foreigner whose sole
qualification is the possession Of suffi.
cient money 70 warrant the belief that
he will not become q public charge, and
to exclude the honest, industrious,
clean and ambitious young chap who
possesses all the qualifications Of
good American citizen, simply because
his pockets are empty.
When the alien has once been ad-
mitted to this country, we Immediately
proceed to forget all about him. We
provide schools for his children, but
as for him, we leave him to choose his
own environment and associates and 20
gather his information as to the Gus.
toms and duties Of citizenship from any
source he chooses.
He is easy prey for the soapbox
orator, whose voice is seldom raised In
defence Of democracy. Why not beat
the street-corner demagogues at their
own game by providing a number Of
street preachers of conservatism and
decent Americanism?
