Washington, ID. c., Feb. 4.
My impression is that the Washington
conference is real and great success.
No doubt no one expected 1t to settle all
matters concerning the peace of the world
In the comparatively short time at it's
disposal and, on the other hand besides
this. it is no simple matter to harmon
ize the aspirations of different nations
in all of which public opinion may not
have reached at a given time the same
level of maturity with regard to partic-
ular questions. But 1t would be ex-
ceedingly unjust not to admit that great
results have been attained and that new
and secure guarantees Of peace have
been created where once existed menaces
and dangers OF war.
The economical problem still retains
its extreme gravity. especially with re-
gard to Europe, and the question OF
limitation OF land armament, which
could not be settled in this conference,
owing chiefly to the fact that not all the
States directly interested in this ques-
tion were represented. requires undoubt-
edly a satisfactory and speedy settle

me Japanese press has hegun to
comment upon the settlement OF
the Shantung question at Washing
ton. While the newspapers generally
are gratified at the conclusion of the
controversy. even the most liberal
section regrets what 1T calls Chinese
seeming inability to appreciate the
Japanese concessions and the Chinese
inclination to believe that the adjustment
is less due to the conciliatory attitude
OF Japan than TO the Intervention of
America and Great Britain.
The Nichi Nichi Shimbap regards the
settlement as matter of congratulation,
not only for the sake of relations be-
tween Japan and China but for the
peace of the Far East. 1t regrets the
lack of unqualified satisfaction on the
part of the Chinese. who apparently
feel that the result was due alone to
Anglo-British Intervention sentiment
which will not help In the promotion of
friendly relations"

will effect a radical change In its policy

THE conservative press, as represented
by the YdmGt0 ShinibDm and the YoYozu
Shoho, appears to feel that. Japan has
been humiliated. The Ydmato says
Japan has been treated as a defendant
in a lawsuit. The Yorosy asserts that
after the enormous sacrifices in the cap
ture of Tsing-tao Japan has now COM
pleted further sacrifices for the sake of

Treasury Certificates

According to statement issued by Postmaster Roberts the sale of Treasury Savings Certificates throughout New England is progress ing favorably each month showing that the interest in these safe and sure securities is increasing and the demand for them has been most gratifying. The sales of the local post office, however, have not kept pace with other offices of equal size and Postmaster Roberts fears that in spite of his efforts to make known to his patrons the attractive features of this security many of them do not realize that this is an investment that is absolutely free from the dangers of loss either from monetary depression or accidents of fire and burglary. He states that they make an ideal investment for inheritances and trust funds because of their non-shrinkable features and freedom from taxation.

LURIA, ALIAS GAVANIA
 CAPTURED IN NEWARK
Was Shot Here While Looting
 Freight Cars, by Detective

Mike Luria, alias Joseph Gavania was arrested in Newark, N. J., last week at the instance of the Connec- ticut state police, charged with carrying concealed weapons and assault with intent to kill while en- gagged in robbing a freight car here over year ago. Luria is believed to be a brother of Louis Luria awaiting trial at Litchfeld for the murder of John Scissere here last August. He was shot in the arm when seeking to escape when caught robbing freight car on the Barnes siding by Detective See, of the New Haven railroad police force.
 Officer Anthony Tomanio of the Connecticut state police upon whose request Mike Luria was arrested, de- clined to divulge whether he was wanted in Connecticut for complicity in the murder, but reVeale that Llria, in January, 1921, jumped" a bond of $1,OOO in which he had been released by the superior court of Litchfeld county to await trial for alleged conspiracy to rob freight cars, and that he had a long police record.
 The prisoner was brought before Judge Richard Doherty of the com mon pleas court, at Newark, who found probable cause and ordered Luria held for 30 days to, await extradition proceedings. He was then brought to the Hudson county jail by Deputy Sheriff Charles Max we'll and State Policeman Tomanio.
 The arrest caused mild sensation in Newark in view of a disclosure by the police that Luria, alias Joseph Gavania, is believed to have been an accomplice of Dominick Ginnini in the assault and robbery of an elderly woman on a street of Newark June 29, 1921, for which Ginnini was re- gently sent to state prison at Tren- ton for seven to 15 years.
 The Connecticut officer identified scar in one of Luria's arms, the location of which corresponded to the position of a wound inflicted by a Connecticut bullet in battle which resulted in Luria's arrest for freight car stealing.
 Luria was arrested in Newark in 1915 for breaking into freight cars &ssst <. carrying concealed weapons, and was sent to a state reformatory. He was then 20 years old, and he gave his proper name when arraign- ed. In October, 1921, he was ar rested there with three thugs, all carrying guns and blackjacks, while they were riding in a taxieab. At that time he gave the name of John Bruno.

COM. STOECKEL FINDS
 MISTAKE" IN THE NEWS
Auto Owners, Not Commission CT, to Blame for In-
 accuracies

The following letter by Robbins B. Stoeckel, Commissioner of Motor Vehicles, relative to a little editorial in last weeks News to the effect that something was wrong somewhere be- cause North Canaan is credited with only 30 passenger cars, while Ca naan, about one-fourth in size, has 254 passenger cars. From the letter will be learned the error that is being ment of the town.
 Norfolk, Conn.,, June IF, 1922. Editor of the Connecticut Western
 News,
 North Canaan, Conn.
 Dear Sir,
 One of the finest things that "Mickie" has said in a long time is contained in your issue of June 18th. I am impelled thereby to write you relative to an editorial in that issue. That editorial states that Something is wrong in the Office of the Com missioner of Motor Vehicles, and goes on to quote figures as to cars
  and North Canaan. 1 am far from saying that the editorial is incorrect in it's first assumption. There prob ably may be something wrong in the office of the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles but I do not think the Edi- torial points out the thing. Being interested to know whether the news article given out by the Motor Vehicle Department quoted the figures inaccurately 1 have had the applications for registrations in the Towns of Canaan and North Ca naan examined and counted. The figures as set forth are correct. The count is made from addresses given by the persons registering. The fact quite apparently is that a large pro- portion of North Canaan people give Canaan as the address. Your own paper is not free from that error on almost any page thereof. The issue of June 18th is headed Canaan, Connecticut" It is published by the Canaan Printing Co.,, Canaan, Con- necticut" Its copies are for sale at "Dempsey's Drug Store, Canaan, Conn.," If I am not mistaken all these activities are really in North Canaan. Why not apply the last paragraph of the editorial to your newspaper?
 Please don't misunderstood me in this matter. I am not asking for any correction but would like ito get in touch with the mind which originated that editorial and have him get the facts. It seems to me that the error of calling North Canaan Ca naan is pretty wide spread in your Community but cannot be laid to the Hartford Department.
 If you are interested in knowing something about the count of cars in the relative Towns the Department could take off a new list made up to correspond to the places where the residents of both North Canaan and Canaan claim their cars ought to be taxed. This will give an approxi- nation of the relative number of cars in each town.
 With my best personal regards,
 Very sincerely yours,
 Robbins B. Stoeckel,
 Commissioner of Motor Vehicles.

IMPRESSIONS FROM
 H. s. GRADUATION Efficiency of Teachers Is Reflected in Ability
 of Pupils

Once more has been demonstrated the inadequacy of our Town Hall as an auditorium for affairs of local appointed friends of the graduates, last Thursday evening, either stood thru the entire performance, or turned back and left the hall. But to the main issue!
 A more creditable commencement could scarcely have been held in any town; and we may we'll be proud of the dignifed tone that prevailed turnout the exercises.
 After the invocation by the Rev erend Arthur M Griffin, memorized original essays on thoughtful sub jects, namely: "The Rise of Women's Rights" "What Is Worth While, ''The American Industrial Prob lem", Peace On the Pacific", and 'Theodore Roosevelt, were deliv- cred respectively by Elizabeth Hol- comb, (Salutatorian), Louise Beau jon, Thomas O'Neil, Arthur B. Baldwin, and Mary Sweeney, (Vale- dictorian). None of the disQuieting, embarrassed elocution that so often characterizes school speaking, was noted here; and well-trained, distinct voices did credit to the teachers who had been able to so fill their students with a desire to present their ma terial forcibly, that thought of self was submerged. The delivery of Miss Louise Beaujon was particular ly noteworthy for it's pleasing enun- ciatiation and finish.
 Miss Naomi Carter, very much at home in her role as presenter of class gifts, did much to enliven the program with her witty references to the foibles of her classmates. as did also Francis Place, with his fun making prophecy, and Miss Everice Parsons with her animated recital of her High School story, "Jim To The Fore"
 We understand that the Faculty has recognized unusual ability in the Class of '22, and expects consider able future success for it's members.
 It is significant that in the past year or two, there has been a grow ing tendency on the part of the graduates here, to pass on to institu- tions of higher education. For this, 'we may thank our superiHtepdent, MT. Teague, with his encouragement and his care in the selection of cap able teachers, and the present prin- cipal, MT. Richardson, with his un- Tagging efforts towards betterment, who, together, have raised the standards of the school above all that we, with our limited means and accommodations, could have expect ed. It is said that several of the present graduates are contemplating entering college, and that word has been received by three of them that they will be admitted on the certi- ficate of the Canaan High School. This fact alone tells the story of the schools development. Whereas, at the Commencement, our thoughts were naturally centered about the graduates, let them now turn to our superintendent, our principal, and to the two splendid teachers thru whose
