Labor Urges Trade With Russia
The Labor party is continuing its
agitation in favor Of a resumption of
trade with Russia and is now receiving
encouragement from the. government.
The unemployment situation is Civ
ing the authorities some cause for
worry, for it has given extremists an
opportunity to spread seeds Of rs
bellion on fertile ground. Communist
propaganda is being carried on among
the ex-soldiers, who are naturally en-
bittered by their forced idleness in the
country that kept telling them during
back as heroes. The Westminster
Gazette says:
"In times like these those VINO see
everywhere the specter of Bolshevism
do as much harm as those who are
doing their best to raise it. The crisis
should demonstrate TO the community
that it is its duty 20 organize an in
dustrial system in such d manner that
such hardship may be avoided. We
need to search for the remedy, not use
distress as an opportunity to create
bad feeling"

san FRANCISCO, Dec. 2S.-Legisla

include all aliens, instead of only
orleHtals. is being planned for intro
duction at the biennial session of the
State Legislature. which will open next
Tuesday at Sacramento.
The chief purposes sought, anti
Japanese leaders indicated, will be:
Amendment of the present anti
Japanese law SO as to strengthen it
against attack in the courts.
Passage of a measure that will facili-
tate Investigations to determine
whether land titles are held in good
faith or by dummies" representing
Japanese.
Possible extension of the entire anti
japanese program to all aliens, in or
der to fortify it against attack. either
through diplomatic channels or in the
courts, on the ground of discrimination.
Should the latter plan be carried out
large interests might be affected.
Dutch and British companies hold val
liable oil interests in this state and
there are other extensive foreign hold
ings. Of late there has been SOM agi-
tation against the holding of oil Prop
critics by non Americans, and pa~ticu-
larly against extension of such
no dings.

day. But there was nothing to indi-
cate a reason, and official statements
are lacking
at has been my opinion that Japan's
protest was largely camouaage to
cover some other purpose, whatever it
might have been"
The movement against Japanese
owning land in this country has spread
and reports here show that anti
Japanese legislation may be expected

sibly other Western states, all pat

Brockville, Ont, late on the following

The light, about halfway across the

the Brockville residents to ascertain
definitely the class of craft, but they
feel certain it had the spherical shape

Japanese Organ Fauors
Reduction, in armament

TOXIC, Dec. 28' (By The Asso-
ciated Press).-The Jill Shimpo,
which has been one of the strong
est supporters of the govern
ment's naval program, says to-
day that if the world consents to
arrest the race for naval su-
premacy there is no reason why
Japan's plan for eight battleships,
eight battle cruisers and 100 sub
marines, to be completed by 1925,
should not be modified.
The newspaper calls on the
Japanese government to take the
initiative, and points out that the
current expenditure for education
is less than one-tenth of the ex-
penditure for ornaments.

Six Tentatively
Preferred for
Cabinet Places
Hughes, Dawes, Daugherty,
Weeks. Hoover and Wal
lace Said to Figure in
Harding's Present List
Shift Still Is Possible
State and Treasury Heads Ex-
pecied To Be Announced
Within a Few Days

MARION, Ohio, Dec. % (By The AS
sociated Prcss) After weeks of con-
sideration and consultation President
elect Hard ng is nearing decision on
several Of his most important Cabinet
appointments.
1t may be said authoritatively that
so far no such decision has been made.
and that any suggestions he may have
dropped on the subject have been of a
tentative and indefinite nature. 1t is
equally certain, however, that in his
talks here with leaders in many walks
OF life he has indicated clearly what
men are uppermost in his mind as he
asks for advice on the makeup of his
official family.
Those who have discussed the oues-
tion with him intimately believe that
appointments under very serious
consideration include the follow ne:
Charles E. Hughes, New York, Sec
retary of State; Charles G. Dawes, of
Illinois, Secretary of the Treasury:
John ". Weeks, of Massachusetts, Sec
retary of the Interior: Henry Wallace.
Of Iowa, Secretary of Agr culture; Her
bert Hoover, OF California. Secretary of
LABOR, and Harry NJ. Daugherty, At
torney General.
Shifts Still Expected
How many of these actually will be
given the places for which they now
are mos5 prominently mentioned is a
que ton tnat even Mr.. Harding himself
is no. yet prepared to answer Already
several snlits have been made in his
tentative appointment slate as he has
worked his way toward a ba anced and
harmonious Cabinet, and other shifts
are expected before the last decision
is made
1t is certain that for several of the
places mentioned the President elect
has more than one man under consid
Grafton and tnat the list of possibilities
given here is far from comp .ete.. In
regard to most Of the Cabinet posts
decisions may be deferred for several
weeks and the intervening period of
dehDer&tion may change the whole face
OF the problem anQ make one guess at
the present moment as good as another
Mr. HaEdng's selections for Secre-
tary Of State and Secretary OF the
Treasury, however, are expected to be
known ceflnltely withirA few days.
AT the same time he ma|make public
the name OF one or two otheis on
whom he has definitely decided for
membership in the Cabinet.
Darh Horses Mentioned
Aside from the seven names men
toned, recent gossip about Harding
headquarters has brought to the fore
the names OF several possibilities who
hitherto haC been in the background
of Cabinet speculation. Among these
Is Joseph DIX n, of Montana, promi-
nently mentioned for Secretary of the
lnteror; Charles D Hilles, Of New
York discusse for Secretary of Com
meree or the Treasury, and A. 7. Hert,
Of Kentucky, whose name has been as
soeiated with the portfolio Of War
When former Justice Hughes was
seen Yesterday at his Office about the
report from Marion that he was likely
to be chosen Secretary of State he
SAID that any announcement concerning
the subject must come from Marion. as
ne would not discuss it.

WANT WAREHOUSES;
IN EVERY COUNTY
Cotton Association to Present Plan
at Meeting in Montgomery
in March.

Steps will be taken at the annual
meeting of the American Cotton as
sociation, which will be held in Mont
gomery, Ala, next month, looking to
the erection of cotton warehouses in
every county in the belt, said j. Skot-
towe Wannamaker, president of the as
sociation, yesterday. An effort will be
made, he said, to have these ware
houses erected before harvesting
period Of the 1920 crops so that the
sale of that crop may be stretched
over a full period Of IL months.
at is our purpose" said Mr.. Wanna
maker "to have these warehouses own
ed and controlled by the people Of the
respective counties. They will be
operated under state or national ware
house acts and it will be urged by us
that steps be taken to as nearly as pos
siblc int t>rest ratH in borrowing on the
cotton stored in these warehouses.
1--WE will also attempt to secure
pledges which will insure that the sale
of the cotton from the 1920 crop will
be strengthened over IL month
period, producer only selling when
there is legitimate demand from the
manufacturers at a profitable price.
This will be possible with the ware
house system which we purpose to
create.
The American Cotton association
realizes the value Of the warehousing,
handling and storing Of cotton and is
determined that the handling of this
cotton shall not pass into hands ad-
verse to the best interests Of the pro-
ducer. This means tremendous re-
form in the cotton industry. 1t will
save $75,O00,O00 country damage per
month. 1t will result in strengthen
