JAPANESE PRoBLEM ADVICE.

The Federal Council of the Church of Christ in America, through its commission on relations with the Orient. has recognized the fact that the Japanese problem in California is an international one.
 States other than California fail to realize the bigness of the matter. and California herself. in despair some- times. is aware that other states do not understand it as it comes to her.
 The church council declares that CaIifornia's best ends can be served Washington. It insists that any way of working out California's problem other than in strict cooperation with the department of Stste is bound to involve our country in international complications.
 It is pointed out that the Japanese have settled in colonies in California which are relatively impervious to Americanization. The Californians are partly responsible for this condition. since they themselves have prevented a more scattered settling of the Jap anese.
 The patriotic aspect of the situation is a most perplexjng one, troublesome especially of those who desire 10 have the matter settled in fairness to Japan and America The American-born Japanese children are deep at the roots of the question. Their status troubles those seeking to settle the matter.
 The advice of the church council, therefore, seems most wise and there should be no hampering of the State Department by an attempt by Cali fornia herself to settle matters. Grant ing that Californians alone fully un- derstand the situation, it should be their endeavor to assist the govern ment by submitting facts, and not hamper it by a possibly prejudiced attempt to manage matters them selves.

MAC SWINEy DEAD.

Tho death of Terence Mac Swiney. Lord Mayor of Cork. after 73 days of fasting with some forcible feeding at times not detailed. Is perhaps as un- fortunate an occurrence as could oc- eur in its reference to the Irish trouble. Could one conceive him as representing the portion of Ireland loyal to England. there would be no tremendous outcry such as will come from the Sin Feiners. They. their children and their children's children will never forget the event. The breach will' be widcned between the Sim Finn and England. and the former will stamp the man as a martyr" to the cause of Irish Freedom.
 The forcible feedings of the Lord Mayor. in the last hougs of his life. indicates the way England viewed his case. Evidently thar country felt oblwed to refuse to recognize in him the representative of any existing cause not recognizing officially the cause. It felt forced to treat him as 1t would treat any other prisoner. If he had been i'll from causes over which he had no control. 1t would have treated him with medicine as any other prisoner would have been treat ed In all probability.
 When death threatened it treated him as it would any other prisoner. Death was fought. MacSwiney died. England had not recognized the man as a representative: England treated the prisoner in danger of death.
 In characterizing Mac Swiney as martyr" or suicide pne should re- member the character and tastes of the man. A writer and poet. he turned to politics. He had ideals. right or wrorg. and like most poets, felt he would stand to those ideals to tho end. There was more of fanatieism in the man than practical determina- ton.
 One thing other should be remem- bered. In 1917 he obtained his re- lease from prison through the medium of a hunger strike. It is probable that Father Rue. in this city recently was correct in his statement that Mac Swiney wanted his freedom.s and was not anxious for death for the cause he espoused.

FINE BILL AT PALACE

Would you dare to say to a man, Take mel" when you had no assur- ance in the world that he wanted you or would ever say Come? It takes nerve for anybody to propose, when the answer IS uncertain. It's hard for a man to be refused. What would a woman do if rebuffed7 Oh, you say. no man could rebufr proposing woman; he'd accept her just through sheer gallantry, whether he really wanted her or not. Oh, but would he |?

STRAINS AND THE WIND.

It Is probable that Upton. Massa- chusetts. would object -seriously 10 being called a straw. It has now 7s9 qualified voters.
 About half the voters arc men: half women.
 IL is for this reason that the town must he referred to as n straw. It will bIow-something of the situa- ton that will obtain in other small towns, although it is said that there is greater proportion of women vot- CTS in Upon than in any other city or town in the Commonwealth. Good for Upton, Massachusetts!
 But this straw shows that the vote Of the women will do tremendous things in the coming election. Every one realizes this fact, but few realize 1t enough.
 In the coming election there is the great issue of the League of Ma tions. IL is here predicted that here after. when the strength of the wom- ah Np'' iH Aho vote sweIled as it will he when wom- on como to realize more and more their duty to vote. every election will have for its main issues a great moral : question. Thus the women's vote will be sought: thus it will be gained. The League is n great moral ques- ton. in some aspects. But the League has nothing to do with Mir. Smith s front yard-at least this significance does not appear now--nor v"ith any matter which n woman would believe that her Judgment Is far better than mans Women will be divided over ! tho matter.
 ! But in an election where an issue were to be raised on which all women , would agree, there would be n 'cinch" for the candidate wise enough ' to discover and advocate, above all else, that issue.
 And here will rise the power be- hind the throne"-namely the candi- dates wife. She. possibly, in future years. will dictate the issue of the ca, ,pnaigns. It is possible to think
