Company K, Minnesota National
Guard, was inspected Tuesday night
by Major. Cotton of Minneapolis. The
guard turned out in full strength and
made a good showing at the inspec-

The basketball team Of Company K
has been putting in some splendid
practices and has come to the conclu-
sion it can play any other National
Guard basketball team in the state
Going on this assumption, Captain D.
J. Moore has issued challenge to
any other guard team to play a game
with Bemidji. 1t is expected that

MEDIA REPRESENTS NEW
ITALIAN POLITICIANS
Italy's Youngest and Second
Greatest Party Being Well
Represented at Farley
(By United Press)

|: Washington, Nov. 25.--In Filippo
Media, the Italian delegation at Wash
ington has as it's representative OF
Italy's youngest and second greatest
political force-that Of the popular,
or Catholic, party. ~a >,sss r.. 4
III Although in existence only three
years, the Italian clerical party now
ranks after the socialists as the most
dominating political influence in
italy. 7 -. Is. -. j. ..-=G*..
Indirectly and quite unofficially,
too, the selection may be regarded
as a very marked courtesy to the Vat
lean, for with Media on the italian
delegation Vatican thought and Vati-
can influence will not be excluded en-.
tirely from unofficial participation in
the conference .e5y,> - Sg5,
The Italian popular party Of which
Media is the recognized leader, was
formed at the direct suggestion of
Nitti to the Vatican. It was Nitti
alone of all the Italian statesmen
who far back in the war saw that the
political effects Of the latter in Italy
were going to be the most extraor-
binary development as political +ele-
ments of socialism and clericalisn.
Nitti has already assembled to power
by effecting this combination and
every fresh day Of Italian political
life indicates it will be the combina-
ton on which he and other Italian
preniers will have to base their sup
port for good many wears to come.
Il Hence Medals position on (. the
Washington delegation is one of .ex.
treme Importance. This has suddenly
become doubly SO by the decision OF
the Italian popular party to throw
it's whole weight and influence in IA
vor Of the League Of Nations. Back
of this decision politicians profess
to see the hand of His Holiness and
the first step toward possible entrance
of the Holy See into the League Of
Nations. sss ~
Media is member of the Milan
"black aristocracy"-namelyt the arts
tocracy that is grouped about the
Pope and the Vatican, as against the
white aristocracy' that is grouped
about the king and Quirinal. He is a
lawyer Of high repute and represents
the big financial interests of the Lom-
hardy industrial center. Although an
attorney by profession he has also
been q Journalist of high note in the
Catholic newspaper world of Italy.
He was director of. the Ossevatore
Catholic newspaper world of Italy.

TOUCH OF CHINA SEEN :
IN WASHINGTON HOTEL
Cairo Hotel Is Given Over to
Chinese Delegates to
Arms Farley
By David l.. Blumenfeld

wa
Washington, Nov 25.-There's no
need to take a boat from the coast to
see China today. All you have to do
is to buy a railroad ticket and board
your Pullman for Washington. ~
Ask for the Cairo hotel when you
get there, and once inside it's doors,
you will find yourself in China. M
The "Cairo," which is the head
quarters of the Chinese delegates
here, ought to have been labeled the
"Pekin." Inside the hall is the infor-
nation bureau and here Chinese gen
tlemen sit at desks, long ink brushes
stuck in holders by their sides, for
most of the inner correspondence of
the delegation is written in the char
acters Of old China, save when the
two thousand charactered typewriter
is brought into play. T..
The walls of the information bu-
reau are lined with pigeon-holed eases,
each pigeon-hole bearing = docketed
files, their outsides facing the room,
wierd with Chinese hieroglyphics for
all the world like the washing pack
ages in laundry.
Whizz up to the seventh floor in
the elevator and you find yourself in
a long corridor which smells sweetly
of eastern incense. "a
Here the delegates have their Of
fices and here, too, the serious work
of the delegation is done. All the no.
tees on the walls are printed in Chin
csc. When delegate or an official
wants his stenographer, he picks up
little red lacquered stick and bangs
on little silver gong. In walks the
stenographer-just like that.
Higher up in the hotel are the
sleeping quarters of t. the Chinese
where all the beds have been turned
to the east. $50 that we face Pekin,"
the Cinnamon say. H.. $685..
And in the darkness of the night,
little candles burn while the delegates
sleep sound in their beds--the can
dies which avert disaster and drive
away the evil spirits.

As far as America is concerned, the

Washington, Nov. 25.-The Chin

they had no intention of withdrawing

Washington, Nov. 25.-China
comes to the front in the discussion
over the Interpretation Of the 'prin-
ciples agreed on.
The most important question is
whether independence in her diploma
tic affairs means what it says, or
means that the outside nations shall
have control Of her customs house
and her imports. The question can
only be settled one way, if independ-
'ence means anything. BY what logic
can outside nations demand the right
to collect and apportion her customs.
The only question arises, (which
comes first, the man or the dollar"

today was proposing to cope with the
new dangers to the success Of the

a tendency on the part Of some Of the

better bargain on Far Eastern
matters. While the Chinese angles on
the Far Eastern problems present
difficulties of their own today, these
were distinct from the danger seen
by the United States. Y
An American official told the Unit

seemed to be an intention to with
hold assent to the naval program
