declaring further that Japan VrtuaHy could not exist without the friendship of the American people
 Nevertheless there is a strong current. of opinion in Great Britain which feels the relations between the United States and Japan are a bit strained, to say the least. This opinion demands with the dominions that there shall be clause in any new form of agreement specifically and for all time exempting the Unlteo States from the field of it's operations.
 The binding clause of the existing agreement is in Clause 2, which reads;
 BUILDING CLAUSE | "If by reason of unprovoked attack or aggressive action, wherever arising, on the part of any power or powers, either high contracting party should be involved in war in defense of it's territorial rights or special interests mentioned in the pre- anlble of this agreement, the other high contracting party will at once come 10 the assistance of it's ally, and will con duct the war in common, and make peace in mutual agreement with it. It is to the above clause that special provision, exeniptng the United States from it's purview, is to be demanded
 The claim has been made in the past bv supporters of the alliance that the United States would ordinarily be ex- empted under Article 4 which provides that should other high contracting party have a treaty of general arbitra- tion with third power it is agreed thai nothing in this agreement shall entail upon such contracting party an obiiga- ton to go to war with the power with whom such treaty of arbitration is in force'
 Virtually all of our arbitration treaties are incomplete, however, and in any event this clause is said to be of negative permit a declaration of war with the nature rather than positive, and would third power with perfect "propriety."
 The argument is made in certain quar- ters that even with an exempting clause the renewal of the treaty of alliance along the old lines would hardly be satis- factory to the United States. The hy- pothesis is set up that if the United States and Japan should go to war and China should declare war upon Japan at the same time in support of the United States, then would not Great Britain, un- der the terms of clause ?, be compelled to come into the war to fight China? The complications are manifold and apparent At the same time, with respect to the entire Japanese situation, it may be said that the policy of the new administra- ton is not "watchful waiting" but vlgl- lant concern.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL

BY J.. f. Jones.
The report Of General Leonard Wood
and w. Cameron Forbes regarding the
Philippines is exactly what was ex-
pected when these men were named
to head the mission to the Islands last
March. Both of them were known to
entertain positive views favoring the
retention of the Philippines, and if
their report had been written in Wash
ington last March it would doubtless
be just what it is now, after an Gin
~vestigation" that has covered several
months. The mission reminds one Of
Millions observation in his Paradise
Lost:
"A mind not to be chang'd by place or
time.
The mind is it's own place, and in itself
Can make a heaven of hell, a hell Of
heaven"
The Wood-Forbes mission reports
recommending the retention of Ameri-
"a control of the Islands, on the
grounds that the Filipinos are not con
sidered ready for independence and
also because the Islands would be de-
pendent upon the United States in
case of emergency if granted their in
dependence as under American pro-
tectorate. General Wood, the official
author Of these views, has been desig-
mated to remain in the Philippines as
encouragement, and he is so bent on
filling the place that he has taken the
long chance of losing his privileges
for retirement from the army.
More than likely the present admin
tration will accept the position of the
Wood Forbes mission as final; and this
very plainly means that the Filipinos
will have to wait for their independ-
ence. Investigations are peculiar
things, and when one reflects that sew
eral congressional investigations of
this same matter came back divided in
their opinions. it is hard to abstain

birds removed. The selected individ-

viously prepared for them. Young

Federal prohibition directors have
been reporting to Washington that GER
tain communities do not furnish them
support in their attempts to clean up
the v~iolators of the laws. AS a result
the government has asked its agents
throughout the country to submit re

ing the attitude of juries in federal
and state courts. The attitude of the
press and the nature of local coop
Grafton are also to be scheduled.
In the battle against booze the fed

they have local support, and in such

engineers say it will cost twice as
much. Under Mr.. Ford's offer the gov
eminent is to complete the dams, and
the funds expended for that purpose
are to be repaid to him. Should the
cost of construction be twice the Ford
estimate the government would have
to pay, just the same. The secretary
OF war has expressed doubt as to
whether congress would stand by such
an arrangement, especially if the engi-
neers for the government should in
the end have the right estimates re-
lating to the excess of costs owe the

General John J. Pershing has gone

dead are buried.

PLAYS TO ACT AT HOME
BY Mary Frances Davis

By Mary Frances Davis
A prominent educator says that no
knowledge becomes a useful part of
us until We have translated it into ac-
ton. That is why small children love
TO play the thing which claims their
interest at any moment. After seeing
a parade, a little boy loves to assume
a stiff military bearing, seize a stick
for a flag, impress all available chill
dren as soldiers, and start a parade.
Every mother Of a little girl knows
how very early baby girls begin 10
play at housekeeping. They love to
wash clothes, iron. sweep, dust and
mother" their dolls. They should be
encouraged in these activities.
This is the natural instinct of dram
atization, and can be utilized in de-
yeloping desirable qualities in a child,
ard in ~impressing useful knowledge,
for the child comes to understand
through doing. Children love 10 fly
like brides, creep softly like mice, and
gailop like ponies. After a trip to the
Zoo, they have many glorious after,
maths of pleasure in roaring like the
lions, climbing like the monkeys. and
initiating the antics of the bears. A
wise mother will fortify her nerves,
and encourage her child in this. for
In assuming the roles of various ami
mails, the child is coming to under
stand them, and to make them a part
OF his general knowledge.
Children Of kindergarten age, or
even younger. love to "act'' the stories
they know. Mother Goose rhymes are
enjoyed by all the little folks, and
mothers will find that children take
Keen delight in dramatizing Them.
After the children are thoroughly
familiar with the incidents Of Miss
Mufett, Jack Horner and Jack and
jill, let them be those characters. In
our own nursery. we find this a happy
way to spend rainy mornings. Little

What a great boy am T." All of the
simple nursery rhymes may be played
in like manner.
There is a large field OF material
with dramatic possibilities which may
be so utilized.
