Y. N. C. A. Notes

The panty given the senior class OF
Alexandria High School at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. H. p. Cation was a
most enjoyable affair in every re
spect. The seniors were out en- masse
and the principal of the high school
and senior professors. These together
with large number of the Ladies
Auxiliary Of the Y NJ. c. A., which
had the party in charge, made a party
of over seventy-five.
The beautiful and spacious lawn
was brilliantly lighted with colored
lights and Miss Corrinne Reardon be.
gan the program of entertainments by
calling the senior roll ina most unique
fashion. The senior was described anil
the party had to guess the identity of
the person whom the description fit
ted. In most instances liEtle difficulty
was encountered but much interest
and amusement was the result Of the
unusual process.
Other games followed in quick sue
cession until everyone was ready to
be seated and motion pictures were
then thrown on an ont door screen.
Beautiful trayelogues were shown
first and then one of the inimitable
"Chaplins' closed the program. Re
freshments were then served which
consisted of ice cream and punch and
home made cakes Il was evidently
agreed that the second reception Of
the seniors OF the high school would
warrent the continuance Of the de-
lightful custom started last year.

Yesterday when the Pioneer pins were
presented to the leader and troop of
Eagles" at the opening of the First
Baptist Sunday School. Dowell Mans

Nom Recognition of Celestial Govern
ment Said to be Stumbling Block
Military Organ Skeptical

Toxic. May 22.-Japan is to evacu

China "at The earliest possible mo-
ment," according 10 = statement 'Dy
an official of the Foreign Office fol
lowing adjournment today CT the col
onial conference, which has been in
session here for the last week.
This, he declared, meant that there
would be mo change in Japan's funda-
mental policy" in the Far East.
The Government has decided not to
publish any of the conclusions reached
Oy the conference for the present. but
it was declared that the results haC
been so gratifying that similar gath
eringS may be held annually to sc
cure coordination between the vari-
Gus branches of Government at home
and in other parts of the Far East.
The conferees included high japanese
military and evil authorities from ST
IBERIA, Manchuria. Korea and Shan
tung and was presided over by Pre-
mier Hara. The sessions were pri-
vate.
While officials generally declined to
say whe.her Japan would take any
new positive steps in Siberia and
Shantung. declaring that this depend
cd entirely on circumstances. they
voiced the hope that China was willing
t. ,Ti>cuss arrangements 10. reS5oaa.
ticn Of the province. In regard to the
conditions surrounding such restora-
ton they emphasized that Japan
sought nothing in exchange, out must
have some assurances that Japanese
residents and interests in Shantune
would be fully protected.
l. was added that the absence OF
responsible authority IN China witt
which to deal was the reatest :!andl.
cap.
The impression prevails in Toxic
that Japan has actually inaugurateH
negotiations with the Chinese Gov
ernment. though for the moments
there is question as TO the recognt"
ton of that government. /"
Meanwhile the leading japanese.
newspapers insist that japan. viii
withdraw her troops from the Shan
tung railroad TO TSing-Tau without
awaiting China's acceptance OF Jap
ans standing offer 20 open rcStora,
ton negotiations. Its declared this
withdrawal will ne carried out with al
aim to Fastening arrangements fol
the actual relinquishment of the pro
vince to CHINA.
The newspapers also declare the
Government is arranging to evacuatc
the whole of Siberia. with the excep-
ton of the points in Saghalln pro.
vince, which were occupied because OF
the NikolaievSk massacre.
The Kckumin Shimbun, the mill
rarv organ, attacks the Government
which il says is trying TO create the
false impression that it will establish
a constructive policy in Siberia by
withdrawing its troops. Il says the
military leaders are fearful that such
an evacuation will lead to anarchists
conditions inmical to Japan and the
other powers. The newspaper also re
ports that Japan is to make loan

FIXES CLAIMS
OF RAILROADS

sion involving several hundred mil.
lion dollars was handed down today
by the interstate commerce commits.
sion. II determined what should be
paid TO railroads for "under.mainte.
nance claims during the six months
following federal control.
While only a comparatively small
sum Is involved In these six months.
the principles laid down by the com
mission probably win be followed In
settling claims that accrued during
the 20 months when the roads were
operated by the government.
The railroads claimed that the gov
eminent in making settlements,
should allow for the claims that la
Dor had become inefficient under fed.
cral control. that wages were higher,
that property bought for the roads
by the government had deprecated
in value. and that materials used In
maintenance cost more.
The commission rejected the dcpre-
citation claim both as TO labor and
material.
Just how smuch Ii involved in the
decision Is uncertain.
Commissioners Daniels. Potter and
Campbell filed dissenting opinions
Commissioners Meyer and Lewis con
