KIACHOW: THE FIUME
OF CHINA

Klachow, China, was seized by Ger
many In 1897 and captured by the
japanese when the latter entered the
World war In 1914 Its permanent
disposition has been the subject Of
wide discussion, especially in the Uni
ted States because of our historic
friendship with both China and ia
pan. Now dispatches state that
japanese representative at the first
meeting of the League of Nations an
nOunced that his country Is ready to
prepare for the transfer OF this ter
ritory back TO China.
Following the murder OF two Ger
man missionaries In 1897, Germany
employed her retallatory seizure OF
Klachow as a means Of obtaining an
Indemnity and 09-year lease on
Tsingtau and the bay OF Kiachow. She
gave the name OF Kiachow TO the en-
tire German concession, which Is not
TO be. confused with the nearby city
of the same name. The concession in
cludes the German-built city OF Using
tau, outlying towns, and the bay
which has n narrow outlet into the Vel
low sea on the west coast of the prov
ince OF Shantung.
Tslngtau illustrates aptiy Germany's
pre-war methods OF getting a foreign
foothold In anticipation OF her dream
OF world domination. The setting OF
this effort lay in province consplcu-
Gus in Chinese history for 1900 years
and revealing traces of pre-Chlnese
inhabitants. For Shantung was the
birthplace and teaching field both of
Confucius and Mencius. There also
the Boxer movement first was directed
against foreigners.
But the harbor OF Kiaehow, appar-
entity, interested the Germans more
than history. II is considered one OF
the best along the Chinese coast, and
10 have n stronger natural defense
than Port Arthur.
Back of the city rise hills ms high
as 1000 feet and range 600 feet
high dominates the harbor. This range
was utilized by the Germans for forts
where they mounted powerful krupp
guns, commanding every point OF land
and sea approach When the Germans
completed their defenses Tslngtau was
considered one OF the most strongly
fortified ports on the globe.
All this protection was not to be
afforded a fishing village and a none
too busy harbor. Natives were per-
suaded TO move, and the lessons built
n typical German city on the site OF
Tsingtau. They also renamed this
CITY. calling II Ching-tao, but the older
name chung to 1t.
Streets were laid out, and given
German names. German banks, Ger
man industries, including brewerles
and German hotels were established
No other postofiice than the German
one was permitted TO handle foreign
mail.
Germany not only obtained indemnl'
ties and the 1893 square miles area
and bay described, but mining and
railway concessions. shantung has
fertile, well cultivated lands, coal
fields, deposits OF iron, gold and other
metals, and small diamonds are found.

duce POnzi in C0urt-DecisiOn Reserved

APPRAISING DONE
IN FARM SECTIONS
Listers Say Better Travelling Conditions
Enabled Them to Finish That
Work Earlier than Usual.

Listers II. f. Shipman and w. l.. Syl-
vester completed at noon today the
work of appraiSing in the farming sec
tions of the town, the work having been
begun April /. Mr.. Sylvester said today
the work had been done more quickly than
usual because@-of the fact that travelling
conditions were much better and it had
been possible to use an automobile, which
had saved much time.
There are but seven more days allowed
by law in which to make up the lists, the
law specifying that taxpayers must, be
fore April 20. forward or deliver their in
ventorieS to the listers.
The work of these officials will be ia
cilitated if residents of the village, espe-
cially all women p years of age or over.
will callfat the listers Office in the town
hall building to be listed. In this cOnnec-
ton it might be stated that the fact that
woman registered last fall in order to
vote at the primaries or state election
does not mean that she does not have to
be listed now. Every woman. whether she
voted at that time or not. or whether she
desires to vote or not, must be listed now
and must pay taxes this year. Up to noon
today only a comparatively few women
had sent their names to the listers office
and the greater part of these were the
wives of men who gave in inventories.
