SOLDIER LOST WHILE HUNTING
 LAST SATURDAY
Private Stephen Morrison Lost Somewhere in Woods
 Near Pleasant Bay.
MAY HAVE BEEN A
 VICTIM BROWN BEAR
Unsuccessful Search Has Been Made for Soldier in
 Past Three Days.

Private Stephen Morrison, of Fort William H. Seward, is either wan. dering in the woods between Pleasant Bay and Mole Harbor on Seymour Canal or his bodS is lying there in some secluded spot hidden from the eyes of searching parties that have been out looking for him ever since last Sunday morning.
 Private Morrison was member of hunting party of 24 Fort Seward soldiers who went to Seymour Canal to hunt deer in charge of Captain Charles A. Hoss. He was last seen last Saturday morning when his hunting partner was talking to him as they were decending hill to- wards Pleasant Bay less than two miles from that place. His partner came to the boat, but Morrison was never seen again.
 Saturday night what was thought were distress signals, the firing of rifle, was heard in the woods and early Sunday morning the whole de- tachment of about 20 men were sent into the woods to find the lost man. Search was first made in the direc- tion from which the signal shots were fired but no trace of him was found.
 Trapper Helps
 Sunday, Monday and Tuesday never less than 20 men were securing the woods in search of Morrison, but ab- solutely no trace was found of him Hasselberg, trapper, who knows every foot of the ground in that dis trict, was called on to aid in the search and guided parties of search CTS. Natives also were used in the search
 Say Bears Got Him
 The natives who live near where the man was lost give it as their opinion that he had been killed by a bear There are many big brown bear in that vicinity which are cap able of killing man with one blow with their paw.
 In support of the theory that the missing man was either mauled by a bear or met with some other acci dent, it is pointed out that at the spot where he was lost it is com paratively easy travelling to the beach with many streams etther emptying into small harbors or into the canal. Fishing boats are numerous in the Canal at this time as. the herring fishing industry is in full swing and if he reached the beach he would be sure to be seen.

tutional amendment under which Congress shall have the power to es- tablish and enforce by appropriate legislation uniform laws on marrIa2e and divorce; provided, that. every state may exclude as to it's citiz ans duly domiciled therein, any or all causes for absolute divorce in such laws mentioned. The understood ef- feet of this amendment, if adopted, would be to transfer to the federal authorities almost complete power over the issuance of marriage li- censes and the granting of divorces. It is a goal toward which consider. able element among those who have studied the operation of divorce laws have been forging. but likewise it is purpose which is most violeptly op- posed by other large elements in the population.
 The adoption of such an amend ment, it is expected, would produce demands for extremely drastic laws regulating the issuance of marriage licenses.

JAPAN LACKING IN RESOURCES ].
 NEEDED TO BUILD UP INDUSTRY

she is far behind the position Vest ern nations have won for themselves industrial expansion is a life and death matter with the NiDponese.
 As a nation which has developed from tribal relationships to a position as one of the great powers within a period of 70 years, Japan offers re- markable and eloquent example of the constructive power of human en- ergy as applied intelligently. This evolution of Japan is one of the great romances of empire building that takes it's place in history along with the greatest governments of the world
 In this respect the land of the Mi kado is the wonder nation of the world.
 But an investigation of conditions in Japan will soon lead one to the conclusion that as truly great na- tion, a nation containing the neces- sary elements of greatness, Japan is overrated Her industrial activity is limited to a small section of the coun- try and a comparatively small num- Der of people Likewise is 1t con fined as to articles produced. While the home industries have been de- veloped to a degree unknown in the great commercial nations of the world, Japan is still far short of it's requirements.
 A government diagram graphically depicts this Japanese shortcoming. It shows that practically one-half of the total imports consist of raw mate rials; and three-quarters of the to- tai imports are raw materials and manufactures for further use in man ufacturing.
 There is further significance, too, in the official export chart. This shows that the imported raw mate rials go to make up practically seven

There can be no legitimate opposi- tion to Japan's desire to consolidate her economic position in the East as long as that desire is kept within the limits of such commercial ex- pansion as will recognize the rights of other nations to compete on an equal basis.
 While Japan has made such tre- mendous strides in industry that her progress is today the wonder of the modern world, she is still an indus trially backward nation as compared with her contemporaries And because

The great strain, which banking competition and the imperious at tempts to gain pre-eminent success in- volve, is made evident by the resigna- tion of Eugene V. R. Thayer of the presidency of the Chase National bank. When MT. Thayer was offered the post of president of the Chase National, he had already attracted much attention by reason of his success as a Boston banker. He was a Harvard man and was possessed of sufficient wealth to have led life of refined leisure. But he had ambition for achievement and just 10 years ago while still a young man, he was elected president of the Merchants National bank of Boston He had to aid him fine family pres tige, for his grandfather established the important banking house known as Nathaniel Thayer & Co., The grand father aided in the financing of va rious railroad systems which were promoted at first in Boston, such for instance is the Union Pacific, the Atcheson and Burlington. He accumu lated a very large fortune, and this was left in trust. When he retired from business, two of the young men who had been employed in his bank took the business over and the partner ship thus established is now numbered dI0OnR the foremost OI Amef1Cdn private banking houses
 Mir. Thayer some of his friends thought, would have been wiser had he remained in Boston. His success in building up the Merchants Bank was conspicuous. He knew Boston we'll and had been finely trained in Boston banking methods and traditions. Rather reluctantly he accepted the presidency of the Chase National and ! began his service in that post three years ago. There were brought to the bank various highly important and difficult financing undertakings with which he was compelled as president of the bank to deal. He concentrated his mind upon these problems, not sparing himself in any way. At last his nervous system was impaired. The strain had been too much for him. AL though he has resigned the presidency of this bank, he maintains personal interest in various corporations. but his first business is to seek restora- tion of his health.
 OIL AND COAL
 The strike of the coal miners in Great Britain has, as is understo ood here, led to the contemplation of the use of oil and electricity in place of coal for securing industrial power Already use of this kind has been be- gun in some of the New England in- dustries. One of the reasons why the substitution of oil for coal is favora- ply contemplated is to be found in the fact that it would be impossible to tie-up oi as strikes might tie-up coal mines. In England also there is dis position to utilize some of the water power which by the employment of the dynamo would be able to furnish electric energy in amounts sufficient to operate her industries. In fact when Great Britain recovers from the ef- fects of the war in all probability elec- tricity generated by water power will supplant coal for the operation of the English railroads
