JAPANESE SPLIT
!. ON MANDATE NOTE
Conciliatory Attitude on Mr..
Huuhes' Stand Favored and
Opposed by Press.
R1 the Axsocia ted Press.


TOXIC. April 1.-THE newspapers
today appreciating the Importance of
the recent American note concerning
mandates. continue to print lengthy
editorials Meanwhile. it is understood
that Japan is consulting with Great
Britain and France on the subject.
While some of the newspapers
counsel in favor Of no CONCESSIONS
being made. leading organs. like the
Yomi Uri. the Jill Shimpo and the
>Asahi, advise a conciliatory attitude.
The Yomi Uri considers that the
United States IL justified at least in
protesting concerning the mandate
for tho Island Of Yap, which Is in
the interest Of harmony with Japan.
should Japan abandon the mandate.
however, she should ask the United
states to abandon the forttfytng OF
Guam.
Declares American Support.
Though it deems the American atti-
tude unreasonable because, 1t says,
the treaty was concluded mainly as
a result Of the support OF the Amer
ican plenipotentfaries, the Jill SHIN
DO recommends concessions regard
ing cable questions in the Pacific, like
those made by France in the Atlantic.
The Times points out that japan
and the United States are ON COM
mon ground in one respect concern
ing mandates. Off Japan, 1t says, al
ways has claimed equal opportunities
for other nationals in all manQated
territories of the Pacific.
"If Japan secures equal trade rights
with the British in Samoa and New
Guinea, she can afford to permit the
fnternationalisation Of Yap." says the
Ttmes. I'm the settlement OF this
question, however, 1t is only fair that
the Australians and New Zealanders
make sacrifices as well as the Japa-
nese."

There will be devils food an
gels food Lady Baltimore, and all

them of the starving children OF
Europe who will not have any OF
these delicious foods but only the
bare necessities that the sale OF

Who knows but that children so
taught to think of others less for

in their generation that poverty

Mir. Brooks identified the photo of Schwsb as that of the man who had called on him one evening to interest him in credit register and again next morning. He had come both times in a big car, of what mal:e Mir. Brooks hadn't noticed. Mir. Brooks had an accounts machine similar to that Schwab was selling, and didn't buy.
 Mrs. Schwab, widow of the slain man, and Carl Schwab, his brother were in turn called to the stand, both identifying the signature of Martin F. Schwab on the Commercial hotel reg ister.
 J. C. Clarke, of the postoffice force, identified the photo of Schwab as that of the man who had left the forward ing order on April 14. He said Schwab had come back the next forenoon and asked for mail. Mir. Clarke reminded him that he had ordered his mail for warded, and Schwab explained that he had remained over a night longer to get It. Mir. Clarke found five or six letters for him in the forwarding case. Schwab took them and exclaimed: "Oh, these are from my wife. I thank you. l thank you. am glad to get them"
 Nash Told Best About Car.
 Elihu Best, of Flagstaff, was next called Heretofore the state mainly had been establishing the fact that the corpse found in the old well last Sep tember was that of Schwab. With the calling of Best began the more di- rect attempt to fix the responsibility for the crime on Harry Nash.
 Best had been sick for several days, getting out of bed to testify. He said that he came to Flagstaff April 8, 1920, from Gallup, N. M. Harry H. Nash and wife and Harry's sister, whom he had got acquainted with in Gallup, came here on the same train. Best came here to clerk in the hard ware department at Babbitt's.
 In Gallup, Nash had showed Best his 38 special S. & w. revolver, and said he'd sell it for $20.
 After arrival in Flagstaff, being strangers here, they associated to-

beside the house each night during the last few nights he and his wife were there. She didn't know the make of the car.
 Saw Nash and Schwab Together.
 Joe Bender, the resturant man, who with Al Peck owned the Shamrock Taxi line during most of 1920, identi- fled Schwab from photo. Said first time he saw Nash and Schwab, Schwab carried some of his stuff from the car, which was standing across the street from the Commercial hotel. into the hotel. Nash pointed out the car and told Bender it was a Chand- Ter, that he could buy it for $500, and asked what the chance was to enter the car in the taxi business. Bender told Nash the car was "good buy but that there was small chance. Next day he saw Nash and Schwab together across the street from his taxi office and the Commercial. Schwab was carrying stuff from Browns news stand or hotel, or both, and placing it in the car. Then Schwab and Nash got. into the car and, Schwab driving. they went east toward Winslow.
 Bender later twice met defendant and his wife driving the Chandler car west of Flagstaff. Both times Bender was going west and the Nash's east.
 Mir Schenck cross-examined. There developed slight discrepancies between Bender's statements at the prelimin- ary and his testimony Monday-the exact words Nash used in talking to Bender, the witnesses present during those two conversations, the order in which the conversations occurred. etc. But Bender was not shaken in the es- sential points in his testimony.
 Nash Shows Schwab to Kramer.
 Cliff Kramer, of Flagstaff, Mir. Ben der's step-son, who worked for the Shamrock Taxi Co. last spring, corrob- orated Bender's story in the main es- sentials as to the conversation between Nash and Bender that he overheard. Bender had remembered his conversa- tions as taking place with nobody else very close, though he said Kramer had been near one of the times, but prob ably not near enough to overhear, and

gether a good deal. On April l3 Nash told Best, the latter said, that he was going to buy a Chandler touring car from a travelling man, with whom he was going to ride to Winslow; that he was going to pay $1 500 for the car; was going to wire home for the money.
 Later under cross-examination by Mir. Wilson, Best said Nash told him he was going to Winslow, but said nothing about the car then; but two days later told him he was going to buy it, and then, the next day after that, told him he had bought it and gave him ride in it. He rode in the car with Nash on three different days, the last time, he believed, being April 20, at night, when Harry and his wife, at their rooms at the Gleason rooming house on West Railroad avenue, told him .they were going to start for Los Angeles the next morning.
 Ed Smith, cowman for the co Bar outfit, who with his wife was running the Gleason rooming house when the Nash's stayed there, said the latter CdHc tnere III fapTli, lSZu. when tnt drayman brought their baggage, con- sisting of a small trunk and a box, he and his wife watched Harry unpack the box, which contained two saddles, chaps, spurs, some big cowboy hats which MT. Smith said might be called n-gallon" hats, and two revolvers, a 3S special SEW, the other a Colts. He had not noticed whether the latter was in firing condition or not. It was on 45 frame, but he didn't know the calibre. Smith introduced Nash, who seemed to want work, to R. B. Cor bett, foreman of the co Bar outfit Smith returned to the range soon after the Nash's came and didn't see them any more.
 Mrs Fay Smith, wife of the pre- ceding witness, corroborated her hus- band. She said the Nash's talked in their rooms late the night before they left, evidently with visitor. Mrs. Nash had told her they were going to Prescott and then would likely go to Los Angeles. They left next morning before she was up. She had seen the Chandler car, which Nash had parked
