DIPLOMAT
Sees NO WAR DANGER
SECRETARY OF JAPANESE EN-
BASSY TELLS COUNTRY NO
DANGER OF WAR HERE.

Tokio-(By A. Pit is regret
table that the real character ane
policy Of the new American president
should be misunderstood by some OF
the Japanese people, said Niche
Kaku, secretary of the Japanese en-
bassy in Washington who has just re-
turned on furlough, when interviewed
by the Asahi representative. Mr.
Kaku continued:
''The president has often had occa-
sion to express his conviction that an
Anglo American Japanese entente
should be made the basis of world
peace. There is every reason to be-
ieve that the American president and
his staff are all in favor of the main
tenance of friendly relations between
America and Japan.
"Mr. Ozaki's policy of armament
limitation produced favorable i'm
preston on American minds in gen
eral although the plan was defeated
in the Japanese Lower House.
On my way back,I was often asked
by American friends when the Ameri-
can-Japanese war was going to break
out, and some young American women
met in the country districts assured
me that they were determined to offer
their services as hospital nurses upon
the outbreak Of American-Japanese
hostilities:
"I was rather surprised that so
many Americans should anticipate an
Acknowledgements armed conflict.
Ny impression is that the Americans
are prepared to fight if challenged,
but otherwise they will be the last to
take up arms against the Japanese.
The diplomatic relations of the two
countries are not, therefore, by any
means SO seriously strained or going
to be strained as to justify any anti
cipation Of an American-Japanese
war. If the situation appears to be
anything but quite smooth, that is
only because of the propaganda of
some Chinese and Bolsheviks."
In the Osaka Mainichi Mr.. Kaku is
quoted as saying that what had struck
home particularly during his three
years service in the United States
was the deep impression which
Japan's militarism had made on
American minds. The general i'm
preston among Americans is that the
party is predominant in Jap
al ana CnaC Cne Japanese government
is under it's influence. This bears
witness to the extensive injury which
the existence of the military party in
Japan is doing to the country's cause.
But Mr.. Kaku emphasized that Mr..
Ozaki's disarmament speeches had
produced greater echo than expected
and that Americans generally inter
preted these speeches to indicate a
1ecline in the influence of the Japan
ese military party.
He was convinced also that as
result of the friendly attitude of the
lew American government, the "anti-
Japanese" situation in the United
States had improved very consider

P|CR|C ACID FOR
|OAH0'S FARMERS
DEAN IDDINGS TELLS ABOUT
THIS NEW EXPLOSIVE FOR
CLEARING STUMP LANDS.

The War Department of the federal
government has arranged to releaI
large quantity of picric aci'
dividuals for blasting purposes. Dean
E. J. Iddings, of the Idaho College OF
Agriculture, announces that he has
received word that he is to, receive
orders for acid wanted in Idaho, and
he has asked county agents to receive
the orders and arrange for shipments
in the various counties.
Picric acid in cartridges suitable
for blasting purposes can be laid down
at points in this section for approx
mately ten cents per pound. Tests
and demonstrations conducted by the
u. S. Bureau of Mines, show that
picric acid is safer to use than ordi-
nary dynamite; is 18 percent stronger
than 40 percent straight dynamite;
and that it is 95 percent as fast as
40 percent dynamite.
Farmers of Latah County can get
as much of this explosive as they de-
sire, provided there are orders enough
for car load at any point. 1t is
probable that cash will need to ac-
company the order and those desiring
acid should arrange to pay in ad-
vance if necessary. In order to de-
termine how much acid is desired in
Latah County, County Agent Fletcher
has asked the following men to list
the names of farmers and others
wanting picric acid, together with the
number of pounds of acid wanted:
J. E. Johnson, VIM. Hengen, and A. +.
Hamburg, Harvard; S. Lackner and
r. Sho1don Princeton. Asa A.
Smith and w. A. Fiscus, Potlatch; L.
E. Kegley, Kennedy Ford; B. W. Den
mis-, Avon; Knight Reid and L. B.
Kitch, Deary; H. L. Cartwright. Troy;
Nelson Brood and E. N. Humphrey,
Moscow.
Those desiring to get quantity Of
picric acid should communicate with
3ne of the above named men at once,
,r write to O. S. Fletcher, County
gent, Moscow Idaho.

La Junta, Colo.-(By A. P.-Not
all in the path of the recent flood
waters of the Arkansas river were
victims, according to Kenneth Woods,
ranchman of this section, who de-
clared recently he was about 81, ZOO

The flood waters deposited several
inches of rich soil on his large beet

FIRE RACES IN THE
WORLDS DEEPEST MINE

Black Diamond, Wash.-(By A. P.)
On the third level of Black Diamond
coal mine, the eleventh level of which
5,656 feet down, is said to be the
deepest in the world, fire ragged for
three weeks recently, until it was
finally brought under control.
Unlike most mine explosions, no
lives were menaced when one level of
the mine turned into flame, for the
tunnel was deserted, the place having
been left idle by a strike of some
months ago. A concrete wall was
built in the mine in an effort to
the blaze.
