and spend his time at place where only
few close associates know he is.
As part of his program to keep the

to Ernest L. Kingston, appointee for

o fthe republican city and county central
committees and announcing that the
whole board of safety will be instructed
to notify policemen and firemen that the
hands off the primaries and general
elections rule will be strictly enforced
The letter to Mr.. Kingston was as fol-
lows:
I'm order that 1 might carry out my
idea in reference to the fire and police
force for the next four years I request
that you resign as vice chairman of the
county and city central cOmmitte.
Il will also notify Mr.. Sourbir and Mr..
Armitage that the police and fremen will
not be permitted to take any interest in
the primary or general election while
am mayors that they will be permitted
to vote, but any one connected with either
one Of these departments that even talks
or in any way uses their influence or
positions to control or change any other
ma nor woman's opinion who they are
for politically, will be subject to trial be-
fore your board and if found guilty will
be discharged from the department.
IT will expect you, as chairman of the
board of safety, to notify every member
Of both departments in writing so thera
can be no question where my administra-
ton will stand on this important Ques-
ton"

is significant that officials have taken
pains to point out in recent days that
the Chinese expect too much"
Through the adoption of the Root pro-
posals, the eight powers having interests
in China have pledged themselves to re-
sPect Chinese sovereignty, observe the

Chinese territory of some foreign in

1t is possible China may yet bolt the

admitted, upon the state of popular feel

save the faces Of the Chinese dele

time would not necessarily initiate
against the fulhllment Of what the con-
ference already has pledged.
