London, Aug. 31.-There is no shadow of doubt as to the solidarity of the goodwill existing between the Americans and the English
 With this comment John Drink water summed up his experiences while on lecture ttour in the United States, from which he has just re- turned.
 He is thoroughly optimistic about the future of the relations between the two great English-speaking ma tons
 "Of course," he went on. "there Is the small minoriSy. with a loud voice. which wants watching and answering from time to time, but there Is no req son to be scared about them.
 Americans and Englishmen were, of course, made to like each other. Although I could not live anywhere else but in England. I have the high est regard for, Americans, A man like J. w. Davis, the retiring ambas- sador, for example, is the salt of the earth"
 He Is enthusiastic about bringing the two nations closer together by the aid of literature and the fine arts.
 ''It is a great pity that the great stream of literature moves west ward" he d6mmented: "there is a great and generaus public for Eng fish literature in America, but one can hardly say the same here of Ameri- can book1."

JAPANESE RESENTS LANSING'S
 EXPOSE OF SHANTUNG TRICK

not be directly received from her.. Mere common sense is enough to show which is right
 Let America be placed for a mo- nrent in Japan's position. After the Paris conference Japan has from time to time reminded China of the advis- ability of at once opening negotia- tions for the return of Shantung, but China wishes to submit the question to the eLague of Nations and as 6 result no progress has peeu made toward a settlement
 Here Dr. Soyeda's criticism brings the American who reads the book up to the League of Nations and as a is instructing her Minister at Tokic to deny all reports that China has the least intention of dealing with Tokio direct. China sees in the disarma- ment and Pacific conferences called for Washington, excellent opportun- ity to bring the Shantung questions
 before far more influential group than the League. Japan says she will not discuss Shantung at Wash l ington. And this is where one of the opening problems of the big meeting | is -'esting.

HARBINGERS OF SPRING
 JOYOUS FEELINGS BRING

Eight o'clock was striking as the boy at the suburban ironmonger's shop pushed LID the revolving shutters.
 Shall I put some of them oil stoves on the pavement, guv-nor ?" he called.
 The man of iron himself came and stood in the doorway. gazing upward.
 The sun was faint1y visible, patches of blue feeked the sky, and a gentle breeze came softly from the south
 "Oil stovesH' he exclaimed. s.No fear! Fetch up a couple of lawn have out a spade or two and some forks"
 It was done, and many middle aged househeiders hurrying to the station felt a peculiar thrill as they noted those harhingers of spring,

 Tokio, Aug. 31.-"At this juncture MT. Lansing publishes a book which repeats the old story regarding Shan tung. The relations of Japan and China have been drifting in an unde- Sirable direction recently owing to the instigation of mischief makers But as a result of better understanding there was hope of an improvement.
 'tIf MT. Dansing's book is widely circulated it might change the tide, and this would be a matter of serious concern to the Far East and to the whole world. What MT. Lansing use of the term "blackmair' is more than can be borne by Japan"
 One of the first works of the League of Nations Association of Japan, in which Viscount Shibusawa is a lead ing member, has been the publication recently of criticism of former Sec retary of State Robert Lansing's book, s"The Peace Negotiations. The crit icisrn is written by pr. J. Soyeda, leading writer of Japan and a mem Der of the organization. It takes the story of the Peace Conference up in detail, and, coming out as 1t does when the question of Shantung IS more or less in the 1imelight of in ternational affairs, it may be expected to have some effect on the public mind in the countries where 1t is cir culated.
 Lansing Criticism Hurts.
 The particular part that Dr. >Soyeda deals with in the opening chapter so1 his book, pamphlet, is the Shan- tung question as it was settled ana th,p race "exchange" as Lansing puts
 .eMr. Lansing alleges that the shan | +unr question was exchanged for the ciaI question:" says Dr. Soyeda- l sTansing further asserts that, taking | advantage of Italy's withdrawal, Ja- nan threatened to withdraw when She had no real intention of with drawing. Let us show how erroneous is the statement that the Shantung question was exchanged for the race ouestton. The so-caIled proposal for inc abolition of racial discrimination was rejected by the committee on | Anril 1e. It was reported that eleven l 1e It was reported that eleven | o,,t of a total of seventeen members | voted ip favor of 1t, but it was drop 1 cd on the ground that the import ence of the matter required a unani- nous vote. Thus the fate Of the ra- cIaI question had been doomed before the Shantung question reached its cl1-
 pr. Soyeda then takes up what he | part of China for what Japan has | done and Is willing to do for the neighboring public.
 "Shows No Appreciation"
 while Japan proposes to return | Shantung captured at so great a sac rifice. not only does China show no appreciation. but she ungratefully de- l ciares that Japan has no right in the matter, and that the province can

 They were unsuccessful in opening the safe. The concesSionaire yelled in agony as they ripped off the ad- hesive tape They poked revolvers in his ribs and under threats of death the victim opened the safe. He then was tied to the bed.
 He made a slight movement as the safe was being rifled, and his guard pulled hair from his moustache. Each time he moved the process was repeated. Before the bandits left practically all the hairs on one side. of the moustache had been yanked. out.
 Stephen was told that to cry out. meant certain death. After the three men left Vassilatoulous succeeded in freeing himself. The police obtains ed fingerprints and the numbers of the stolen Liberty bonds.

aroused the medical profession to a pitch of fury because the medical men of Great Britain have always fe1t- that they were above the law in many cases.
 Now the conference has passed a resolution deciding to give support to members who refufse to divulge ingS formation received in the exercise of professional duties unless the patient consents.
 It is therefore up to the judge to. take action if witness-a medical one of course-refuses to testify, with the chances that he will have the whole profession down on him if he insists.
