The Tribune Fresh Air Fund

The Fresh Air Funds season is about
at its halfway mark. 1t is time to check
up results.
The exact halfway mark in point OF
days falls on August 5--next Friday
By nightfall on that date The Tribune
Fund will have sent to the country for
vacations 1878 boys and girls.

OF the first half of the season of 1921
exceed those of all the other forty four

begun IN 1877. The fund is coming

upon 1t this summer than ever before.
Can the pace Of the first half-season

That is a question Of financial SIM

BY August 5, the halfway milestone
OF the season, contributions should

Continuing his remarks on this subject,
he said:
For a long time Yiscount Uchida

ness for a conference such as President
Harding suggested
There is a current opinion in official

up the Shantung question. At the same
time it was declared even If this issue
were brought up IL was unlikely that a
satisfactory agreement could be reached.
Councillor Hayashi of the japanese
foreign office declared in an exclusive in
teTView with the International News Serv-
ice yesterday that he considered Shan
tung a question TO be settled between
Japan and China by direct negotiations
He was of the opinion that 1t would be
brought before the Washington con-
ference).
In foreign office circles it is said that
Japan may refuse to discuss all matters
that are already covered by treaties.
There was an important conference at
the foreign office Monday when the chief
Of the Asiatic Bureau OF the Ministry
made a report. The communication OF
Baron Shidehara, the japanese ambassa-
dor To Washington, dealing with
Americas explanation Of the SCOPE and
character OF the proposed conference was
canvasscd.
The foreign office is maintaining the
utmost secrecy regarding the Washing
ton negotiations. None Of the officials
would admit that a formal rejoinder had
been received from Washington giving
detailed Information in reply to Japan's
