Pussyfoot Johnson was ragged.

Complicated Situation Regard
ing Immigrants Who are
Not Wanted in Cali
fornia.
PLAN is FORMULATED
State Department Has Scheme t
Avoid Trouble, But Not Ready
Yet to Make Announce-
ment.
[By A. L. Bradford, United

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-Neither
the United States nor Japan is will
ing to give way in the fight of the
mikado's government to prevent fur
ther discrimination against Japanese
by California, developments today
showed.
The complicated situation, rapidly
becoming the most serious problem
as follows:
maintain its position for exclusion of
Japanese Immigrants, but will make
supreme effort TO avoid conflict
with Japan over further discrimina-
tory legislation in California.
Japan comedies the right of the
United States to bar her immigrants,
according to state department Off
ciaIs but insists that her subjects
already in this country must not be
Disseminated against further by pas
sage of the new California anti
Japanese land law.
The state department said it was
unable to prevent the proposed law
for absolute prohibition of all land
holding by Japanese from being
voted on by the people of California
in the November elections.
Ambassador Shidehara will demand
as basis for his negotiations with
Secretary of State Colby that the
federal government somehow stop
the California measure from being
carried into effect, according to .au-
thoritative statements. @
Shidehara has warned Colby that
a wave Of anti-American sentiment
will sweep over Japan if California
passes the law.
An important development today in
the situation was an official state
ment that the state department had
not yet decided whether to act be-
fore the vote on the California meas
ure or wait to see If the vote in
California would open up way for
meeting Tokio's protest.
It was indicated at the state de.
partment that plan already has
been tentatively formulated for solu-
ton of the California problem, but
officials will not discuss this beyond
saying they are hopeful of settle
ment.
An attempt by Japan to precipitate
a. complete revision of existing rela-
tions between the two countries so
that the racal equality of Japanese
be recognized is regarded as likely.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24-The United
States Is facing one of the most serl-
Gus famines in it's history.
Crops are fine, TRANSFORMATION is

Flo Ziegfeld, the great maestro. to,
dav wore a whatto-do air as he re-
flected upon the hardships Of a life
of picking good-lookers, and told all
about it.
The trouble centers about enc
thing, according TO Ziegfetd 1t
seems that the one thing demanded { f
a chorus girl now adays is neither face,
figure nor voice, but personality.
Eve can't figure out whether
American girls are losing their per-
sonality, their ambition to succeed on
the stage; are making more money
at other pursuits, or just what is the
matter" Giegfeld said. "R we knew
we might find some way to overcome
the present shortage
"a few years ago S35 week was
the maximum salary for chorus girl.
Now we pay as high as $125 and $3.50
and still we can't attract any con-
siderable number of embryonic stars"

He said Richard H. Waldo, an en-
ploye of "the Du Points, tried to get
the papers owners to sell. Heffer-
nan didn't know which branch of the
Du Pont family Waldo represented.
but said he understood those for
whom Waldo spoke were interested

the United States.
waldo told us if we didn't sell
we wouldn't last six months, and
that the big interests would not let
us have Advertising" Heffernan
stated. and added that the paper is
unable to get advertising.
Heffernan demanded that Senator
Edge, Of New Jersey, retire from the
committee while he testified
"He is sitting here both as judge
and prosecutor said Heffernan. Il
have information that Senator h.ge
is in on the plan to wreck our paper
and has been in consultation with
those who are concerned in the plan
against US.
Heffernan named employees of the
American Legion weekly as having
been called and told of the plan to
wreck the Stars and Stripes, and said
he had confidential information
that Edge knew all about 1t.
Edge and Senator Kenyon de-
manded that Heffernan tell them at
once the source of his confidential
information Heffernan said Richard
s. Jones, his assistant, told him
about the matter and that Jones
had learned of it from some employe
OF the American Legion weekly.
Jones was at once subpoenaed.
Edge denied Heffernan's state.

men named.
Because Secretary of War Baker
was opposed "for sentimental rea-
sons" to continuance Of the stars
and Stripes after the war, Heffernan
said he went to democratic head

democratic national committee to in
fluences congress not to pass a Dill

Mrs, f. NJ Parks. secretary OF

month to return to Denver, she had
several loads of earth put in the

An attractive Spanish woman came

Her acquaintance with Denton last
