Alamosa Notes

Special to The Chieftain.
Alamosa, March By official
proclamation the residents of this
city arc busily engaged in general
cleanup campaign. Newcomers in
this city invariably speak about the
fine appearance OF this city. Alamo
sans are proud OF this reputation and
take great pride in this annual spring
housecleaning time to make their
home town appear still little better
than last year.
The interstate commerce commits
sion is considering the advisability of
making Alamosa a common ship
ping point and not n local point,
for freight shipments to the coast.
Freight Agent karns says that he
is confident that such will be the
decision: that he is looking for such
instructions daily, and that the
change will mean saving OF from
$50 up on each car of freight to
California.

CHARGED WITH GRATING
Evidence to Go Before Grand Jury

Warrants Will Be Issued.

NEW YORK. February 4.-Evidence
involving thirty-eight customs in
spectors at the port of New York in
charges of graft. will be presented to
the federal grand jury as soon as the
cases are completed, Earl B. Barnes,
assistant federal district attorney, an
nounced. Warrants will be issued for
the arrest of the men, he said:
Byron c. Newton, collector of the
port, admitted that recommendations
had been sent to Washington for dis
missal Of eight of the inspectors. 9th
erwise, he said, no changes had TAX
en- place in the staff. He said the i'm

The smuggling of liquor. Mr.. New
ton added, figured in the investiga-
ton, although perhaps not to so great
an extent as silks. jewelry and other
dutiable articles. There was also evil
dence which tended to show that an
international drug smuggling ring
was at work, he said, but thus far no
one connected with the customs serv-
ice had come under suspicion in this
connection.

in Far East.
| SAN FRANCISCO. February A.
Japan desires more than anything else
| to maintaiS friendly relations with
| the United States, J. Russell Ken
| needy, head Of the Kokusai News
Agency Of Japan, declared in an ad-
dress here yesterday. Mr.. Kennedy,
who has just completed a tour of the
United States after about fifteen years
| in the far east, said that everywhere
f; he went he had been asked whether
there was to be war between the two
countries.
"If it were not for the serious side
| of that question, the question itself
would be childishly absurd" he de-
clared. Il can give you the most
| solemn assurance that If there is one
thing in the world that Japan wishes
to avoid more than another it is the
| rupturA Of friendly relations between
| this country and herself.
The vast majority of the people
| there are bitterly opposed to war. War
! bankruptcy for Japan"
Discussing the holding Of lands by
aliens, Mr.. Kennedy said:
Il am in full agreement with the
proposition that every state has the
right to say who shall be admitted to
their privileges as laborer, as traveller
or as resident. I am very confident
that the Japanese government and the
thinking and ruling element in Japan
are in full accord with this PROPOSE.

that he would not consent to fix a

that there would be no unanimous

pointed to the British landlords and their
