JAPAN SPOL|CY
IN THE ORIENT
IS HANDS OFF
NipponeSe Will Never De-
clare War on us If We
Maintain Such an Attitude
Says Kansas Minister.
tBy The Associated prsss.J

Wichita, Kaps., Aug. 14.A-Japan
is not looking for trouble nor is
the mikado's country seeking to
take undue advantage Of the Unit
ed States through any immigration
rights, Is the opinion formed by
DR.. Walter Scott Priest, pastor of
the Central Christian chui<Il of
this city, who recently returned
from tour of the Orient. He as
certained that Japan's policy re-
garding the Orient Is much the
same as Americas as expressed In
the Monroe doctrine, and that the
Japanese "hands off" policy should
be respected. AS to the Chinese
problem DIR. Priest said in an adj
dress here:
"If the Japanese can do for
China what they have done for
Korea we should pray that Japan
be permitted to assume a protec-
torate over China.
"California's problem is but a
very small part of the entire ques-
tion," he said. 1--WE must take care
that the agitation by Californians
and by the yellow press does not
influence us unduly. Japan will
never declare war on us as long as
we maintain a policy Of hands
off,"
DR.. Priest said that he was an
advocate of limited immigration,
but that after Japanese has been
admitted to this country he must
be treated with the same respect
and afforded the same opportuni-
ties that We offer any other ma
ton.
Japan is a forward looking ma
ton, busily engaged in extending
its business and its credit. Neither
America nor China nor any other
nation need fear them. he de-
clared.
Even the militaristic class,
which comprises but one-sixth of
the population, does not advocate
a war with U.S." he stated.
In closing his address, DIR. Priest
warned his hearers that Japan
would flight to the last ditch be-
fore she would brook any inter-
ference in her internal affairs.

SILK PURSE IS
MADE FROM EAR
Of SOW, CLAIMS
tBy The AsaocIntsd press.l

Cambridge, Mass, Aug. IA
silk purse made from sow's ears
as chemistry's answer to the old
saying that it couldn't be done,
will be shown at the Chemistry
Exposition in New York during the
week of September IL.
In announcing the successful
result Of experiments, Arthur D.
Little, Inc, chemists and engi-
neers, of this city, said the silk
was not very strong and that there
was no present Industrial value in
the process involved. 1t was more
or less the product of chemistry
at play, but contribution also to
philosophy in proving the fallacy
of the old proverb.
In reciting the factors that en-
tered into the transposition of
sows' ears from Chicago stockyards
to silk purse such as woman
might carry, the chemists ex-
planned that the first step was
to analyze the silkworm's method
Of making silk. This done, it's cat
erpillar chemistry was copied in
the laboratory.
1t was found that man had to
provide a. substitute for process
by which the silkworm exudes
from two fine ducts in its head
minute threads of viscous liq-
uid, coated with another secretion,
which are cemented into a double
strand. This becomes a firm fila
ment Of silk when it coagulates on
reaching the air,
Analysis of this viscous liquid
showed it to be like glue and with
somewhat similar chemical prop
critics. The sow's ear being chief
ly gristle and skin, also has the
natural elements of glue. This
was obtained from the ears and 1t
was put through several processes
of preparation, filtered under pres
sure and placed in spinning appar-
US of special design.
The solution Of glue and chemi-
Gals came out as sixteen very fine
colorless streams, Joined into one
composite fiber, treated TO give it
strength and color, and processed
yet again to obtain the desired
soft, silky feel. The weaving fol-
lowed on a small hand loom, the
fabric was formed and the purse

MEXICAN GOVERNMENT
PRACTIClNG ECONOMY

Mexico City, Aug. 1.-THE Mex
lean government, by refusing free
gasoline, tires. repairs and garage
service to its employees who use
government automobiles, hopes to
effect q saving of more than ST.
100000 annually. Several more
hundreds of thousands will be
saved to the government when
army officers are forced to pur-
chase their own gala uniforms and
there will be a still greater saving
when all federal employees draw
ing more than five pesos daily
suffer a wage reduction Of 10 per
cent.
These economies which, 1t is I'M
derstood, will be made effective
shortly, are in line with a pro-
gram Of rigid thrift inaugurated
recently by presidential decree.
The first step was an order to all
department heads to cut their OPP
Grating forces to the minimum
and after July ! to operate on the
budget system, calling for care
full federal audit.
This was followed by the impo-
sition of an income tax which is
designed to cause "all inhabitants
Of Mexico to contribute in a small
way toward the national benefits
which are expected to be derived
from the celebration of the coun-
try's independence next Septem-
ber."
Under the decree all persons
having daily incomes of from five
to ten pesos are to be assessed !

Journalists earning two pesos or
less are to be exempted from pay

SLAYER
Of REV. HESL|N
CALM, CYNICAL
HightoWer RegainS His Com
posure After Almost
Breaking Down After Be-
ing Quizzed BY Officials.
(By The Associated Press.)

Red Wood City, Calf. Aug. a.
William e. Hightower, accused Of
the murder of the Rev. Patrick b.
Heslin, was brought here today
from San Francisco, where Tor
four days has been subjected to ex-
animation by officers in an effort
to wrest confession from him.
Hightower was brought here be-
cause this is the seat ~ San Mateo
county, in which Father Heslin IS
believed to have been slain and in
which his body was recovered in n
dramatic search by lantern light
last Wednesday night. 1t was here
that warrant was issued for him
and here, next Thursday he will
be given a preliminary hearing.
Hightower's attitude reverted to-
day to the self-possession which
was in the early stages of his eX-
animation. Last night at the end
of a day in which the officers had
adduced witness after witness to
controvert his story, he seemed on
the verge of breakdown. But to-
day he was calm Ind cynical as
ever.
Hightower made an effort today
to recover examples of typewriting
found in his room and of a letter
written to Dolly Mason The Of
ficers are relying on these to prove
Hightower's authorship of the
original letter, demanding ransom
for Father Heslin, the day after he
disappeared. They said they be-
lieved Hightower sought them so
he could destroy them.
The police in San Francisco to-
night said there was increasing in
dication that Dolly Mason" from
whom Hightower said he obtained
clues to the location Of Father
'Heslin's grave was mythical per-
sonage.

Irish provinces are profoundly at
tacf1ed to the throne.
''These facts permit of one an
swer, and one only, to the claim
that Great Britain should negoti-
ate with Ireland as a separate and
foreign power.
when you, as the chosen repre-
sentative of Irish national ideals,
came to speak with me, IJnade one
condition only, of which our pro-
posal plainly stated the effect
that ireland should recognize the
force of geographical and histori-
cal facts.
1T is those facts which govern
the problems of British-Irish re-
lations. If they did not exist, there
would be no problems to discuss.
I pass, therefore to the conditions
which are imposed by these facts.
We set them out clearly in six
clauses in our former proposals
and need not re-state them here,
except to say that the British gov
I,ernment cannpt consent to the
reference of any such questions
which concern Great Britain and
ireland alone, to the arbitration of
a foreign power.

PREMIER REPLIES TO
DE VALERA'S LETTER

London. Aug. (by the Associated
Press) Mr.. Lloyd Georges reply
which was dated August 10, was
as follows:
1.-THE earlier part of your letter
is SO much opposed to our funda-
mental position that we feel bound
to leave you in no doubt of our
meaning. You state that after
consulting your colleagues you
confirm your declaration that our
proposals are such as the Dali
Eirreann could not. and the Irish
people would not accept. You add
that the outline given by our draft
is self contradictory and that the
principle of the pact offered you
is not easylto determine. We de-
sire, therefore, to make our posi-
ton absolutely clear.
"In our opinion nothing is to be
gained by prolonging the theoreti-
cal discussion of the national
status, which you may be willing
to accept, as compared with that
of the great self-governing domin-
ions of the British commonwealth,
but we must direct your attention
to one point on which you lay some
emphasis, and on which no British
government can compromise,
namely the claim that we should
acknowledge the right of Ireland
to secede from her allegiance to
the king.
mo such right can ever be ac-
knowledged by us. The geograph-
zeal propinquity Of Ireland to the
British Isles is a fundamental fact.
The history Of the two islands for
many centuries. however 1t is read,
is sufficient proof that their des-
TIMES are indissolubly linked.
ireland has sent members to
the British parliament for more
than q hundred years. Many of
her people, during all that time
have enlisted freely and served
