states Mr.. Koehler in a digest of
recommendations left with the COM
mittee. "by the creation of the Re-

turnover have continued almost with
out abatement. Furthermore, the re-
placements have tended to lower, not
only the efficiency. but also the
quality of work of the various scien-
tifc bureaus, as qualified men can not
be obtained for the salaries now be-
ing offered by the Government"
The council further points out that
both the Smoot-Wood and the Stc--

some relief as far as salaries are con-

CHINA MAY ASK U. S.
MEDIATE IN DISPUTE
Japs Make Offer to Open Negotiations
With Chinese Concerning
Tsing-Tau.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. received
Thursday from Toxic disclose that
Japan has made another effort to
open negotiations with China looking
to the REIMBURSEMENT of Japan OF
Tsing-Tau and other parts of the Shan.
tung peninsula. The step was taken
by Mr.. Obata. the japanese minister al
Picking, who, by direction or his gov.
eminent notified the Chinese foreign
minister that he was prepared to com
ply with the Chinese desire to state
the scope of the negotiations having
such REIMBURSEMENT in view.
China, according to the advices, has
not slgnifed her disposition toward
this latest japanese offer and It is be-
lieved she may invoke the good Offices
OF the American government before an
nouncing a decision. The state de-
partment here, ii is understood has
been giving close attention to the de-
velopment of this issue, ready to act at
any moment as a mediator in procuring
the REIMBURSEMENT of Shantung to
China in a way best calculated to pro-
tect the Chinese interests while insur-
Ing exact justice for Japanese in the
settlement of claims.
Previous attempts by Japan to open
negotiations on this subject directly
with China have failed, owing to the
latter's insistance that Japan first state
the conditions upon which she would
be willing to retire from Shantung.

drive Puegot in the .500-mile dash at

There are a few drivers who will
continue to speed their mounts even
after they feel 1t giving way Under
the terrific strain of the gruelling
long-distance race-baIt not me. | can
tell by the feel of car whether it's
performing at it's best and there is an
ever present premonHion whenever
danger is lurking. When that time
comes l drive the car of the track. |

centage OF danger when everything is

and iscloted for his skill and finish in
