Japs Says Issue Lies
With Supreme Council

Toxic, April 19.-The Japanese
Foreign Office stated today that It
was still considering the note from
Secretary of State Hughes Son the
mandate question.
Most japanese newspapers think
Japan IS likely to adopt a passive
attitude. The Japan Times today
says that whatever opinions may be
held regarding the "belated"- Amer
scan protest, it can not be said that
the Japanese press has discussed
the American note in jingoistic
tcne.
The Times calls attention to the
position of the japanese Foreign OF
fec in meeting the American claim
with steady refusal to accept the
matter as an issue between Japan
and the United States. and with an
equally steady insistence that the is
cue was one between the United
States and the Powers which first
pledged their support to Japan's
Claim to all the German islands
north of the Equator and later. when
the mandate idea came into being,
handed over the Island of zap Ia
the Jurisdiction of Japan.
The Times says it understands ia
nan will not issue any particular de-
Tense of her nosition. but will rely
upon the publication of the CORES
pondcnce to make Japan'S case cI@a-
to the world.

Mr.. Harding can say, as

Mr.. Harding is a disagree
able President. If thus far
in the administration his
high office he has disagreed
with anybody, the press dis
patches have failed to dis.
close it. Suave, gracious and
beaming, his well proportion
ed head seems these haly-
con days always bowling in
the affirmative, no matter
whether it be in response to
an invitation to wear a white
carnation all the days OF his
incumbency or to autograph
a picture for some caller
from Pohunk, Idaho.

like, in the name of the old
swimming hole, he says, and
he bows his head in the at
firmative. A group of horse=

present the President with
a couple of pairs Of nickle
horseshoes and he suddenly
develops into an ardent
horseshoe pitcher. You are a
fine bunch Of fellows and

The decision Of

Court yesterday
llpholding a S
Decision
of Some
Moment.

constitutional the District
of Columbia rent control
law, known as the Ball Act,
is Of more far reaching: i'm
portance than the mere ap-
plication Of this particular
piece of legislation in the
city and suburbs Of Wash
ington. Seven states have
PASSED anti-profiteering
laws of one kind or another
based largely on the Ball
Act. And Justice Holmes in
handing down the courts de-
cision specifically declared
that state legislatures have
much right to fix rents as
they have to fix rates OF IN
terest.
Such a. decision is admit
tedly based upon the widest
and most liberal construc-
ton of the constitution. 1t
certainly goes q long way to-
ward broadening the control
ofslegislative bodies over the
business relations Of the
country. The fact that it was
reached only by a bare five
to four majority would ind.-
cate a radical difference OF
oninion among the members
Of the Supreme Court as to
just how far legislation can
go in regulating business.
In SO far as the decision is
a slap at the rent profiteeTs
of the District Of Columbia
and for that matter G. rent
and all other kinds OF prof,
teers throughout the coun
try, the Supreme Courts d2
cision will be universally az
plauded. Aside from that:
however, those who. look
with disfavor upon the
rapidly encroaching power
of government regulation
OVER practically everything
will as heartily dissent frolr
the decision as those W!1N
are in favor Of strict gov-

Dennis had been a patient at St. Catherine's hospital but was not confined to his bed On Friday he left the gardens of the hos pital and hailed a car and under the impression that 1t was about to stop. approached too close and was struck. He died instantly
 MT. Dennis was a resident of Phoe- nix before the railroads came into this section of the country. He was one of those pioneers who aided in the development of the state, endur- ing the hardships of the early days. His earliest activities were in CO., operation with the business man, freighting their goods from Maricopa to Phoenix before the days of the railroads. He later ranched in the valley taking over large acreage. One of his largest tracts of land was the Dennis addition. 160 acres east of the high school. He also had down town property which he disposed of few years ago when he and his family went to Venice to make their home.

OWNERS IF THE BUSY DRUG STORE BUY THE
 ADAMS PHARMACY

Purchase of the Hotel Adams Pharmacy by the Phoenix Drug com pany, Inc, owners and operators of the Busy Drug store. was announced last night. Plans for, the expansion of the Adams Pharmacy to include the storeroom in the AdamsCentral avenue corner of the Hotel Adams building was also made public.
 "we believe in Phoenix and its fu- ture prosperity and know of no way in which we could have better ex- pressed our confidence than bv launching an undertaking of such proportions" C. P. Dunn. president and treasurer of the Phoenix Drug company, announced yesterday.
 Work will be started immediate ly in remodeling the Adams Phar- macy, MT. Dunn announced. Papers were signed late yesterday whereby the Phoenix Drug company has taken a long time lease, not only on the present drug store location. but on the store room adjoining it on the south, a corner location, formerly used by the Southern Pacific railroad company as a downtown ticket office.
 The wall between the two store rooms is to be removed. the whole to be remodeled into a spacious store room that will house the future Adams Pharmacy, which will not lose it's identity through the sale. The new store will have a frontage of 55 feet on Adams stree. and 40 feet on Central avenue, or total floor space of 2,200 square feet.
 The corner entrance is to be re- modelled and enlarged. The present entrance of the store will also be re- tained and other entrance at the rear of the store on Adams street will be constructed. There. with and en- tranceway from the hotel lobby, will give the store four entrances
 The Phoenix Drug company. Inc, was organized several years ago. It has since operated the Busy Drug store, although the name of the com pany has never been used in ad- vertising, it was explained. MT. Dunn has been president treasurer of the company and has had active management of the Busy Drug store for the past eight years. Charles Urban has been secretary. Joe Ryan. from whom the Adams Pharmacy was purchased by the Phoenix Drug company. retains an interest in the store and will become a director in the Phoenix Drug company.

There are many attractive ways of cooking fresh tomatoes. Baked. scalloper or broiled, the whole toma- to must be used. As canned tomatoes must be used in stew and soups dur ing the winter months. why not keep this in mind and be sure that to- matoes make their appearance in a whole state.
 Stuffed Tomatoes
 Four tomatoes. 3 tablespoons but ter. tablespoons of chopped green pepper, + cup cooked sweet corn, % cup soft stale bread crumbs. F tea spoon salt. is teaspoon pepper, E teaspoon minced onion, tomato pulp.
 Remove stem end from tomatoes and take out the seeds and part of the pulp. Put this seedy part through a coarse sieve to remove the seeds. Sprinkle the insides of the tomatoes lightly with salt and let stand up- side down for 15 or 20 minutes. This toughens the flesh of the tomatoes and keeps them from breaking during baking. Melt butter in sauce pan and add chopped pepper. Cook five minutes. Add corn, bread crumbs. sea- soning and enough tomato pulp to make moist. Fill tomatoes with this

 No~, all this time Paddy had been working away just as if no one was around.

Sammy Jay was so surprised that che couldn't find his tongue for minute. and he didn't notice anything peculiar about that tree. Then suddenly he felt himself falling. With a frightened scream he spread his wing to fly, but branches of the tree swept hip1 down with them right into the Laughing Brook You see, while he had been speaking his mind Paddy the Beaver had cut down the very tree in which he was sitting Sammy wasn't hurt, but he was wet and muddy and ter ribly frightened-the most miserable looking Jay that every was seen.

He had not sup posed that anybody but Farmer Brown or Farmer Browns boy could cut down so large a tree as that, and it quite took his breath away. But he got it again in a minute. He was boiling with anger anyway to think that he should have been the last to learn that Paddy had come down from the north to make his home in the Green Forest and here was a chance to speak his mind.
