ITALY LOOKS TO AMERICA.

Rome, Aug. 10 - Italy looks to South America for the solution of her emigration and raw material pro blems. The need for the migration of Italy's excess population is para mount and new fields for her surplus sons and daughters are expected to be found in Argentina and Brazil.
 The need of Italy for raw materials for her diversified industries can aios be supplied by the rtch South Ameri- can republics. At a recent confer- eence of the Italian Colonial Insti- tute, it was pointed out by Professor Giovanni Bonacci that Italy could be supplied with both coat and petro- leum from Brazil and Argentina

ARE LIQUOR SHIPS
Revenue Agents Discredit Tales
of Mystery Vessels.
Blockade Runners Operating on
Coast, Is Claim.

Atlantic City. July 1S.-Pirate yarns
and reports of mysterious ships lurk-
ing along the trade lanes and dashing
away into darkness when signaIled by
merchantmen may be explained by
the discovery of blockade runners
landing liquor on the Jersey coast,
revenue agents here said today. What
revenue agents believed to be the ex-
PLANTATION of the unusual action of
some ships on the high seas was
brought about thru the seizure of a
cache of whisky said to have been
landed along a cove near Wildwood,
N. J.. from an alleged mystery" ship.
For several days an unidentified
steamer was seen maneuvering just
outside the three mile limit of Wild
wood. Revenue cutters were sent to
watch it. The vessel disappeared but
not before, officials think, it had dis
charged cargo of whisky. Prohibi-
ton officers declared today they were
confident liquor smuggling was being
conducted on a tremendous scale.
Cargoes worth fortunes are believed
to have been brought from foreign
countries. 1t is. thought probable that
the blockade runners have also
transferred their illegal cargoes to
vessels bearing authoritative clearance
papers, SO the liquor can be landed
with other cargo. Instructed to meet
the other vessel, the runner reaches
the rendezvous, approaches various
vessels and falling to get the proper
signal, hurries off to prevent discovery,
the agent believes

JAPAN IS ANXIOUS
Worried About Immigration
Question in South America.
But in Favor of Disarmament

Toxic, July 1S.-Japan favors an in
ternational conference on disarrna-
ment and Far Eastern questions and
probably would have called such a
faVorab Bile, according to Counsellor
Hayashi Of the foreign office today.
The foreign office attaches said that
Japan is most anxious to know if i'm
migration to South and Central Amer
lea will be discussed. He added he be-
lieved that the Yap island and Shan
tung questions had no place in the
conference, because sufficient time
would intervene for direct negotiati tions
on those matters before the Harding
conference meets.
Pleased With Harding's Idea.
This is the first interview from the
japan foreign office since President
Harding issued his call. The counsel
lor emphasized the fact that he was
but, because of his close relations with
Niscount Uchida, the foreign minister,
it is believed that the statement re-
fleets the views of the foreign minister.
After expressing his pleasure over
the movement inaugurated by Presi-
dent Harding. the Japanese official
pointed out that a general misunder-
standing over the Pacific discussions
might cause dissensions here.
He said Japan wanted to know If
immigration questions affecting South
and Central America would be taken
up.

Island. they have no place in the con-
ference" said Counsellor Hayashi.
| There are three months yet before
the conference will take place. That
is plenty of time to conclude direct

Shantung affects only China and Jap
an. China should be left alone to

best way to serve her own interests"

TO DRILL FOR GAS
Rig on Way for Real Test Well
Near Topeka.
Leases Closed ON Location
Three Miles South of City.

Arrangements are being made to
drill for gas or oil on a farm three
miles south of Topeka, according to
an announcement made today by w.
T. Comstock. ]. E. Dow of. Wichita
Falls, Tex. is shipping a drilling rig
here, w. S. McCaslin and w. IT. Com
stock will be in charge of the drilling.
Biologists Make Report.
Reports received from two promi-
nent geologists from Oklahoma, who
have been making a survey of the ter
ritory, are very favorable and hold out
bright prospects for striking gas in
paying quantities. Also there is a
strong probability that oil will be
found. according to reports from those
in charge of the project. Each geolo-
gist made the report without the
knowledge of the work of the other, it
is said.
The rig for the well is on the way
The casing from the old Wakarusa
well has been procured and is already
on the ground. The work of drilling
will probably be started in two weeks.
Tho estimated depth that it is
thought necessary to go, will be 1900
feet. The company does not intend to
stop at that depth, however If no re-
suits are obtained at that depth and
will go on to the second break in the
Mississippi lime, which is at a depth
of 1900 feet or more. 1t is believed
that there is gas in paying quantities

grand jury as Confessions"
Chicago, July 18.-After two weeks

six hundred men were examined to
select a jury. defense and prosecution
today INDUCED in the first inning"
of the trial of seven former White Sox
players and four alleged gamblers
charged with conspiracy to permit
Cincinnati to win the 1919 world
series from Chicago.
The defense went ''to bat" with half
states attorneys scurrying to all COR
ners of the legal diamond" to pre-
vent the defense from sewing up the
game before it is fairly started.
WANT Burns to Talk.
There were indications that the
twelve umpires in, the jury box may
be asked to decide merely whether
was against Illinois laws rather than
if such a conspiracy actually existed.
The defense planned today to ask
that Bill Burns, alleged accomplice of
the deIenOantS, ana Joe GedeOn, for
mer St. Louis player, be compelled to
talk. Saturday fhe defense made an
unsatisfactory effort to question these
men, who are said to be the star states
witnesses, relied upon to strike OUT
the contentious of the defense.
The defense also planned today to
ask the arrest of Burns, who is under
indictment altho never officially ap-
pretended; to ask that the grand Jury
statements of Eddie Cicotte. Joe Jack
son and Claude Williams be barred
and that no members of the grand
jury be allowed to testify. that all evil
dence of gambling be barred as the in
dictments do not mention gambling and
that the last two counts in the indict-
ment charging conspiracy to defraud
Catcher Ray Schalk and the Chicago
club be stricken out.
With these motions likely to involve
the case in a maze of legal tangles, the
defense also planned to inject into the
trial the feud between President Ban
johnson of the American league and
Charles A-.~Comiskey, of the National
Chicago club in an effort to show
Johnson instigated the investigation to
block Comiskey chances of winning
another pennant

IN WAR ON TOBACCO
State Superintendent OF Public In
struction Opposes Cigaret.

Kansas City. Mo, July 1S.-NIiss
Lorraine Elijah Wooster. state su
perintendent of public instruction in
Kansas. disclosed last night why she is
so bitterly opposed to the tobacco
habit-the members of her family
have never used tobacco.
Miss Wooster was scheduled to talk
on THE Value of Education and Re-
ligion," at the Grand Avenue Metho-
dist Episcopal church. She devoted
most of her remarks in advocating an
anti-cigaret campaign.
Tobacco was given to the soldiers
and sailors in the war so that the large
tobacco trusts might profit" said Miss
Wooster. "At one time the Red Cross
refused to handle any more tobacco
for the troops, but was forced to
change its decision because of the in
fluence of the trusts.
After visiting state eleemosynary
and penal institutions thruout the
country and talking with the officials
1 am convinced that a majority of the
inmates owe their downfall to smoking
cigarets.
I'VE need state and federal laws tc
prohibit the manufacture and sale OF
/ all tobacco-we all know what ma
tional prohibition has done for the
country. the tobacco question is just
as important"
