JAPAN PARLEYS
WITH SOVIET ON
FATE OF CA|TA

Chang Chun, Manchuria. Sept
l5.A(By Associated Press. )---Ja-
pan, the Chita republic and the
Moscow soviet. in conference here
over Siberian problems, today had
basis on which to proceed with
their negotiations which had been
deadlocked over the demand or
the Moscow government for wider
recognition.
The Japanese and Russian dele
gates yesterday decided on an OUT
line for discussion. While Japan
indicated willingness to con-
clude later trade agreement with
Moscow, it was stipulated that
this must be preceded by an un-
derstanding with Chita over tho
matters pertaining to the with
drawal OF Japanese troops from
Siberia. Meanwhile, 1t was ex-
planned. Japan will insist that
Chita prevent bolsheyiki propa-
ganda from Invading Korea.
Subjects Discussed.
The delegates agreed they would
attempt to reach an understand
ing first on the establishment of
general trade relations between
Japan and China's Far Eastern re-
public. The Japanese delegates
declared that Toxic, backed by the
Japanese people. was willing to
transact business with Chita. 9s
Restoration OF Vladiyostok to
the sovereignty Of the Chita gov
ernment was held to be the next
question. The delegates we're un-
derstood to be ready to recommend
that after Japan had completed It's
evacuation Of Siberia, by the end
OF October. Vladivostok would be
declared an open port under the
control of Chita. The terms Of
this arrangement will be disT
cussed.
The third point on the program
Is the restoration of war muni-
tions in Vladiyostok to the Chita
government. These stores, which
aggregate in value more than one
hundred million dollars in gold.
We're sent to Vladivostok by the
allies during the world war. The
bulk Of them came from America.
Reparatiops for Massacrs.
There Is possibility that Ja-
pans demands for reparations for
the Nikolaievsk massacre will be
considered in connection with the
Chita conversations. The Russians.
however, declare that IL Japan
presents such a claim, Russia will
file counter claim for the occu-
patton of Saghalien island and
other parts of Siberia by Japanese
troops after the withdrawal OF all
lied troops from the Far East.
Joffe said Moscow took the view
expressed by Secretary of State
Hughes at the Washington arms
conference--that the Nikolaievsk
massacre was an incident of the
allied Intervention and not an af-
fair concerning Japan and RUS
sia alone.
The conferees reached the un-
derstanding that negotiations be-
tween Japan and the whole OF
Russia would be considered after
the Chita agreement had been COM
cluded.

HOW HE ESCAPED ARREST
Uniform Of Italian Colonel Protected
Fuad Pasha From the Threat
ened Indignity.

In 1913 Fuad I, the new king Of
Egypt, was an unsuccessful candidate
for the Albanian throne, after having
been colonel Of artillery in the Italian
army. When he became sultan of
Egypt his role under the protectorate
Of England was not always easy to
maintain.
One day n messenger Of the British
Resident asked him to sign an ordi-
nance against the Egyptian natlonal-
lists. He refused. And the messenger
Of the Resident slgnified to him with
the utmost courtesy:
II shall then to my regret have to
arrest and imprlson your highness."
"Permit me-" replied Fuad Pasha,
ito 60 for a moment to my room to
reflect"
A few minutes later Fuad came
back in the uniform of an Italian
colonel.
He was not arrested.

ment all but tore the pillar in halves,
but when the marines and the infan-
try had driven back the enemy and
recaptured the town, far beneath the
mass of stone and mortar the altar
was found intact. -
Upon returning to their devastated
home the French villagers looked upon
the little altar as good omen and
set about to clear up their ruined
church building. Later they removed
one of the altar pillars, and after APP
propriate ceremonies, sent it to Amer
lea as the gift Of appreciation Of the
commune Of Belleau to the Yankee
regiments, through their organization
of the Legion. The pillar is carefully
preserved at the Legion's headquar-
tiers, protected by the French and
American flags.

this work is being done in the middle

for Liberty bond, Red Cross and
other campaigns won her the plaudits
Of all and caused her bank account
to diminish.
One of the things which Mrs.
Starkey did to arouse wartime morale
was to show the pictures of all the
boys from LIE Sueur who were in the
service-237 in all. Lights and heat
in'her theater were all furnished gratis
for wartime community gatherings
The cost Of the films which were Of
ten shown at the Starkey theater was
borne by its proprietor and the funds
to help the service men were aug
mented so much more.
LIE Sueur Legionnaires hold Mrs.
Starkey up as the unusual who prof.
iteered in their good will instead OF
cash.

vigorously stumping the county, in
view of the coming primary, got q

future voter of the recently enfran-
chised sex, but when he left he real

Not Well Acquainted.

Uncle Ben was a jealous member
OF the church. His brother, Uncle
Billy, in late middle life, was yet num-
bered with the "goats," but was finally
converted.
At the next service the preacher
called on Uncle Billy to lead in prayer.
Uncle Billy knew his deficiencies and
remained silent. Again the preacher
called. and a third time, saying,
"Brother Billy, please lead US III
prayer"
"Pahson, call on Brudder Ben" Hes
better 'quainted wild de Lawd den ]
u.s." Uncle Billy finally suggested
New York Mail.
