Where u. S. and British Colonies Agree

man of the senate foreign relations
committee and Republican leader of

ago in Philadelphia. made one brief
reference to the Japanese problem.
The paragraph suggested a union Of
the British dominiOnS with the United

which Mr. Lcdtc >ad. found its way
into the British embassy here in an as
tonishingly short time. Because of the
AnglO-Japanese alliance there was
nothing official which the embassy
could do.
But a high official OF the govern

the feeling in New Zealand and Cana

wrote to Mr.. Lodge commencing the
suggestion of league of English

Mr.. Lodge has since consulted many

idea has been very general.

Tenth District Suggestions.

If the letter Of the law is followed
congressional districts may be reap
pOrtioned this session. Tentative fig
lures given out at Washington recently,
in regard TO congressional reapportion-
ments, indicate that Indiana will re-
tain her thirteen congressman. 1t Is
possible, however, that change may
be suggested TO the Indiana house and
senate congressional reappOrtionment
committees which would affect only
the Tenth congressional district. The
Tenth is now composed of Lake. POr-
ter, Newton. Jasper, Benton, White
and TippecanOe counties, and !; known
as shOestring district, and is COM

territory.
