YAP, QUESTION
ISUP AGAIN

Washington, ID. c.. April118.-
The tensity of the situation exist
ing between the United States and
Japan over the island of Yap was
revealed officially for the first time
today when the State Department
made public the entire correspond
ence between the two governmen nts
consisting of three American aud
two japanese notes, exchanged
during the last six months.
This correspondence, some of
which is distinctly curt in tone,
reveals that each government has
stood solidIy on lis original posi-
ton, and that each so G6alty re-
fused to give way i1rthe slightest
to the contentious of the other.
Tue United States is.adamant in
its refusal to concede that Japan is
entitled to the Exclusive possession
of the small, but highly important,
island, and Japan has~cIung stub
bornly to the position that zap was
awarded her by the allied supreme
connciI and that the matter is tbus
r closed chapter so ar rs America
is concerned.
The last communication from
Japan, under date oftFebruary 26,
Just on the eve of the retirement
of the Wilson administration, is
rather sharp in tenor and in spots
Inclined TO be somewhat ironica
Matter will be referred to allied
supreme council next month.

Washington.-President Harding has
given his hearty endorsement to the
appeal being made by Maj. Gen. Leon
ard Wood on behalf of the Near East
Relief, l Madison Avenue, New York
City. for a nationwide Lenten Sacri-
fee Offering to save the starving
Christians of the Near East.
=. The Presidents letter reads:
"There ought 10 be DO cessation or
relaxation OF our sympathetic Ameri-
con efforts to be of service to these
stricken people. One can we'll believe
that they will not survive If we with
draw the relief which has heretofore
been 80 generous from the private
American purse. It has seemed to me
that all we have done has borne divi-
dends tenfold in the consciousness that
we have done an humane thing for a

The modern province of Smyrna Is

OF Asia Minor 1t contains three Of

tile soil and temperate climate have
added to the regions attractions, while
the possession Of a port and city--the
city of Smyrna-unequaled by any 9TH

other immeasurably important asset.
Though imperfectly titled during its

Smyrna has nevertheless been noted
for its fine fruits. For long time it
has furnished the best figs and rai-

Poets and travellers have sung and

survived for long ages, Smyrna has

DROVE FORD CAR FROM
BUFFALO,, NEW YORK

Harry Bailey, of Buffalo, New York,
was in Moscow Thursday accompan-
led by Mrs. Bailey and their children.
They had driven from Buffalo in a
Ford touring car, without having had
la bit of trouble. "We passed a num-
ber of big cars that had passed us,
but broke down and had trouble, but
we never got stuck nor had any diff
26 days on the road, but spent three
days in sight seeing and attending the
Montana roundup. Mr.. Bailey was
born near Colfax, being son Of Frank
Bailey, a pioneer of Whitman county.
He enlisted In the navy and served IN
that several years but went to Buff
falo in 1912 and was married there
and located in Buffalo, but longed for
the west and finally decided to return
to the PalOuSe country. Asked about
crops, Mr.. Bailey said, with a show
of enthusiasm: "The best crops | have
seen between Buffalo and Moscow are,
between here and Spokane. They are
simply wonderful. The crops in the
Dakotas and Montana are burned up
and will be almost failure in many
places. We travelled through districts
where the winds were SO hot they
burned our faces, and crops were
simply parched. One place they told
us they had had a fine rain two days
before but it had been dried up by
the hot winds in few hours" Mr.
Bailey plans to locate in the west out
will visit relatives at Portland before
deciding where.

ional committees toward reclamation
and that the delegation Of governors
that visited Washington in its behalf
was said to have been received by
more committees than any other dele
CATION that ever had appeared in the
capital. 1t was the first committee
outside of a committee of members
of congress that had ever been grant
ed an audience by the steering COM
mittee of he senate.
A plea for cooperation in tiding
the country ovr the present period
of depression was made by the gov
rnor. In this appeal he was seconded
by C. L. Nichols, of st. Paul assist
ant general manager of the Northern
Pacific railway, who was guest at
he meeting. He predicted that the
day was not far off when the COM
merce and industry of the United
States would be again on solid ground.

evening for Lewiston. Mr.. Barber
plans to return to Boise via Pendleton.

FIRE DESTROYS OLD
HOUSE AT KENDRICK

Kendrick. today destroyed
one of the first houses built in Ken
drick. The building. which was owned
by John Kennedy, was situated on the
bluff north of Main street, and has
been vacant for sometime. An ad-
joining barn was also burned.
The fire was started from burning
rubbish at the foot Of the bluff on
Seventh street, the blaze creeping up
through the grass on the hillside,
burning over large area.
For a time it was feared that the
entire residence district was endan-
gered. Heroic efforts by the citizens
en- masse prevented the fire from
spreading to the house owned by Lin
dy Hamley, which was the key to the
entire group of buildings.
