ROOTS 4 POINTS
BASIS FOR CH|NA'S
SYSTEM Of REFORM
Republican A. p. Leased WlreJ

WASHINGTON. Nov. s0-The full
significance of the American -four
points proposed by Elihu Root and
adopted by the arms conference to
guide its discussions on China is COM
ing to be better understood as the
Far Eastern negotiations approach
decision on specific subjects.
At first regarded as largely re-
iteration of general principles which
had long been sanctioned on paper by
all the powers, the -four points" have
in fact become the foundation on
which China's friends hope to erect
a system of reforms that will in
many respects reverse past and pres
ent practices.
The American delegation has taken
the leadership by making known that
1t regards the Root resolution as
vastly more than a few finely turned
diplomatic phrases. The American
position is that by accepting the
four points" the nations have bound
themselves to apply in a concrete
way the long professed principles OF
fair dealing toward China, and to
proceed without subterfuge to give
China as great degree of independ-
ence a s conditions warrant
Powerful support from outside the
American delegation has strength
ened that position and in the dis
cussions of tariff autonomy. extra

Whereas. More than 100000 boys
and girls in America are not avail
ing themselves of our free school adj
v2ntages and are lacking in that
youthful schooling so essential to the
making OF an intelligent citizenship;
and.
Whereas. The experience of the
war reveals vast elements of popu
lstion that are illiterate, physically
unfit: or unfamiliar with American
ideals and traditions: and our future
strength and security are much de-
pendent on their education and COM
mitment to American ideals:
Therefore. l. Warren G. Harding,
president of the United States. do
urge governors to set apart Deem
her to 10 inclusive. 1921, as Ameri-
can education week. during which

The subject of public education
always has been very close to the
American heart and to the fact that

largely owe the wide diffusion oil

that a widespread and earnest effort

at Parker, Colorado. about 20 miles
southeast of here at p. m. yesterday
and escaped with between $4,000 and
$4,000 in cash. according to a report
to Denver police.
The robbers are said to have
jumped into a waiting automobile and
sped away in the direction of Eliza

Early accounts of the robbery said
that the bandits locked the girl teller

trend Of the negotiations never has
been permitted to stray far from the
Root platform. In every case pro-
posed solutions have been scrutinized
in the light of appropriate sections
of the -four points, with the result
that the four American principles
have become the dominating element
of the discussions.
How this method will affect such
problems as Shantung, Manchuria
and the "21 demands if they come
before the conference, is to be dem
onstrated.
With the questions OF extra terri
toriality and postal rights to be dis
posed of tomorrow. through specific
declarations now in preparation,
there was an expectation in some
quarters that the subject of leases,
including this held by Japan in
Shantung and Manchuria, may be
brought up for discussion soon. Del
egates are hearing many humors of
an attempt to secure an agreement
on Shantung at least outside the con-
ference.
In its consideration of China, II
was explained, the conference is con-
sidering the situation as divided
roughly into three sections. First
there has been a grouping of all the
sovereign rights that China still re-
tains, with general agreement that
all must be preserved.
In the second group have beer
placed all the rights in dispute here
as a W work of the treaties and
other agreements, with the under
standing these will be restored tC
China in so far as possible.
The third group comprises right!
which China declares have beer
seized from her without any preteX
whatever and which it is the desir'
of the conference to give back unless

Police Arrest Members AT
| ter Three Days of Siren
uOus Wheel Stealing.
WHEELS BADLY MIXED

One boy gang which had started out
to rid Kenosha of the dangers of the
bicycle was nipped in the bud on We'd
nesday afternoon when Police Officer
Melbuech arrested four boys of ten
der age and recovered four whole bicy-
cles and parts of three or four others.
The bicycles were found at the base
ment of the home of one Of the boys
over on Lake avenue and it was de-
clared, that the boys had fitted up a
regular shop by which the bicycles
were being changed so that they would
not be recognized by even thei rformer
owners. The boys came clean with
the story of their sally into the Grim
inal life and admitted that they had
taken the bicycles and had planned to
divide them between the members of
the gang. The boys were Stanley
Miller aged IA, Stanley Narlewski ag-
ed ID; Charles Wenckus aged Is and
Eckert Best, aged Is. The last named
of the boys is negro.
Started Work Saturday.
According to the confession made
by the members of this latest gang
of boy operators they started work on
last Saturday evening and the first
bicycle to reach the "shop" was stolen
from the street in front Of the Gordon
saloon. On Sunday nigh another bicy-
Gle was secured from in front of the
First National bank, another from in
front of the Royal Restaurant and the
last one to be added to the shop in
voice was taken from the street near
the Merchants and Savings Bank. Own
ers of missing bicycles were at the po-
lice office this morning Identify

One of the boys mas long police

that the boys were working with a
system which would have ridded the

court, they pleaded guilty to charges
of larceny and fines of $40 and the
costs were imposed in each case. The

tionnaire," he declraed. And when the
officers of the league checked up on
the answers which they had received,
Alderman Tully's answer was in the
hands of their secretary.
Points to Past Record.
Alderman Tully in his answer tells
the league that his record as a coun-
Gilman may be easily investigated by
a review of the proceedings of the city
council for the past year More than
that he offers to answer any specific
questions which they may put to him
but admits that their recent question

Claims He Was Misquoted.
Alderman Tully maintains that the
reports which came from the meet

II did say that did not intend to
answer the QUESTIONABLE" he explain
ed, "but did not say that l did not
need the support of the Independent
Voters League. merely expressed
my own plan and took no part in urg-
ing others to act similarly. What l
actually said was: If they want to
find out my record, they can go to
the records of the city council and
look it up. Then if they are not sat
isfed, they can vote for the other can
didate.' That is very different from
what l am reported to have said"
1t was anticipated that Alderman
Tully would not be the only one of
the 'willful twenty or ''twenty-six" to
get an answer to the committee before
