PROMPT DENIAL OF
JAPANESE WAR YARN
Japanese Ambassador Declares Story
of Modelling for War Is with
out ANY Foundation.

Washington Denial that Japan is
modelling for war" in the Pacific By
fortifying her mandate islands was
made today by Baron Shideharn, Jap
anese ambassador, in a statement to the
United Press. Insistent reports that
Japan is fortifying these islands were
branded as "pernicious" by Shidehara,
His statement follows: "In reply to an
inquiry, the Japanese ambassador au-
thorized the United Press to deny most
categoricaily all reports that Japan
has been fortifying or intends in any
way to fortify any of the Pacific is
lands to the north of the equator. He
branded such reports as pernicious and
absolutely false" Secretary of War
Weeks today denied reports that army
forces in Hawaii were being doubled,
because of agitation in Japan over the
California alien land law question. He
also d.nied the Panama canal zone
force was being greatly increased.

PUSHES CLAIM
OF kEINOSHA
North Shore Line Officials
Push Kenosha Chances
for Big Hospital.
SHOW REAL INTEREST

A strong boost for the claim of Ke-
nosha and Racine for the establish
ment tof one of the large hospitals, re-
Gently voted by Congress for care of
disabled veterans of the late war, some
where between the two cities, was
made thi msorning by officials of the
Chicago & North Shore Electric rail-
road. F. w. Shappert, traffic manager
of the electric railway line, was in
communication today with Mayor
Joachim and former Congressman
Clifford E. Randall to discover just
what Kenosha and Racine had done to
secure the hospital.
Mr.. Shappert declared that the North
Shore line would be staunchly behind
the efforts of Kenosha and Racine to
land the big institution. He said that
the company would be ready to CO.
operate in every way possible to furn-
ish transportation to the hospital in
the event that it was located anywhere
near their lines.
Returned from Washington.
Mr.. Shappert has recently returned
from Washington where he went over
the situation regarding transportation
at the Great Lakes Training Station.
The North Shore line has been very
fair in all its dealings with the gov
eminent regarding that station and for
that reason its promise to cooperate in
the establishment of hospital some
where along its line will be a strong
recommendation for the elaine of the
two lake shore cities.
1t was also learned this morning
that Milwaukee was making a strong
bid for the hospital The Milwaukee
County Council of American Legion
Posts has sent petition to Wisconsin
congressman asking that the institu-
ton be built near that city.
1t is thought possible that there will
be some advantages for smaller city
and that for this reason Kenosha and
Racine, if they will push their claim
will have chance of landing the, big
project here.

.S12,5OO BALM
ENDSRAMB0SUIT
Former Kenoshan Settles
Suit for Alienation of
Wife's Affections.
FAMILY IS REUNITED
Warren Peck of Les Angeles Is
Declared to Have Paid Sum
for Withdrawal of Suit.

The suit of Rollo R. Rambo, formerly
OF Kenosha and now manager of the
branch of Simmons company at Spo-
kane, Washington, against Warren
Peck, millionaire resident of Los An
geles, Cal, in which Peck was charged
with alternating the affections Of Mrs.
Eulalle G. Rambo, wife of the Kenosha
man, has been settled out of court.
Messages from Los Angeles today de-
clare that the suit was withdrawn from
the superior court there following the
payment Of S12,5o0 by Peck to Rambo
and following a reconciliation between
Mr.. and Mrs, Rambo. In his suit filed
in the courts of Los Angeles a little
less than month ago, Ramho had
demanded damages to the amount of
100000 and had made most sensa-
tional assertions in regard to the re-
lations which had existed between
Mrs. Rambo and the aged defendant in
the suit. 1t is announced that Mrs.
Rambo has left Los Angeles in com
pany with her husband and children
and has gone to Spokane where the
Rambos will open. their new home and
that the reconciliation between hus-
band and wife was complete. The an
nouneement Of the suit caused sensa-
ton in Kenosha and announcement of
settlement will be of unusual interest.
Made Serious Charges in Suit.
In his suit against Peck, Rambo had
charged that the wealthy Californian
had enticed Mrs. Ramho away from the
Rambo home which was at Venice,
CAL, and that he had taken her to
hotels in >eertain larger cities, It was
declared that under the tutelage of the
aged admirer Mrs. Rambo had been
taught to gamble and that on account
of the relations between the two the
wife had lost all interest in her home
and her children and had been rend-
cred unit to perform her duties as a
wife and a mother. The papers in the
suit were suppressed after they had
been filed and for this reason the ex-
act allegations Of the plaintiff were
never printed in full. Friends of the
Rambos in Kenosha declare that both
Mr.. and Mrs. Rambo were anxious for
/ a reconciliation and that they well
coined settlement of the action with
out the publicity of court trial.
Peck Widely Known on Coast.
1t is declared that Warren Peck, who
was named as the defendant in the
action, was widely known on the coast
and that with vast estate, the small
amount paid in settlement Of the suit
caused little comment.
Rambo has been active SIN the Sim
mons organization for some years and
his recent transfer to the offices at
Spokane made it easy for him to start
life anew. The Rambo family left
!. here several years ago when the Sim
mons company took over the factory
in San Francisco. Previous to that
time they had been prominent in the
younger society of the city.
