RED CROSS fund
FOR JAPAN
OVER TOP
Only South and Southwestern
Divisions Lag Relief
Fleets All at Sea.

Reports from Japan today indi-
Gated that the work of relieving
the distress Of earthquake victims
and salvaging the wreckage Is pro-
ceeding satisfactorily. Leading
members of the japanese colony
here take the optimistic view that,
terrible as the disaster proved, time
will show it was not an unmitigated
misfortune as the rebuilding of
Yokohama and Tokyo the new
cities will surpaas anything posi-
BILE to attain had development been
left to ordinary progress.
Local contributions to the Japa-
nese relief fund continue to come
in. 1t will be several weeks, it is
predicted, before the last Of the
belated donations is received. That
the fund will treble the $4,000
quota seems certain.
But two of the grand divisions
In the national campaign for the
$5,000,000 fund have so far failed
to exceed or reach the quota as.
signed them.
Late reports coming in from each
indicate a subscription exceeding
the quotas will be recorded within
-
two belated divisions are the South
ern and the Southwestern.
Shipping reports show that the
fleet allocated to transport relief
supplies to Japan, with the excep-
ton of few of the ships now
being loaded, has sailed from
Pacific ports.
At national Red Cross head.
quarters 1t was learned that here
after contributions sent to Japan
will be in the form of cash re.
mittances.
The Japanese relief organiza.
tons, it was said, are in position
to understand local conditions
better than outsiders, and know
for what materials and other sup
plies funds should be expended.
In connection with the distribu-
ton Of the American fund, Red
Cross officials point out, none of
the money was used for admins
trative expenses in connection with
the collection and distribution of
the fund. Every dollar contributed,
1t is said, has gone to direct relief
work.
Hard On Students.
AS an aftermath of the disaster,
it is learned that a number of
Japanese students attending Amer
lean universities will be compelled
to either return to Japan or enter
vocational activities through which
they can maintain themselves while
continuing their courses.
A survey, it is said, will be made
at the various universities to de-
ternnine the status of the TananeSa
students and 80 far as possible
extend assistance to those whose
families have suffered financial
losses.
In the larger university centers
leading commercial organizations,
it is understood, have offered to
give part time employment to
Japanese students requiring such
assistance.
Contributions to the national re.
lief fund approximate $500, 900.
Red Cross officials express con-
fidence in the fund approaching the

amount OF patronage to his uncle's
wine shop. But his position is
rather pitiful. He. is destined either
to give himself up or live con-
stantlyi on the defensive. Also Re
must live where he will not come
in contact with his countrymen.
It is not a pleasant outlook, with
his supply Of ready cash rapidly
dwindling.
The case Of Griffith and his as
sOciates probably viii not be
brought to trinl until October, and
this delay Is regarded to be to their
advantage. The charge of attempted
murder probably Will be dropped,
and In that case the men will be
tried by bench of five judges from
whom they can reasonably expect a
less biased judgment than from a
jury.
Already there arc indications that
the Germans realize that this is a
private American affair, which un-
fortunately was thrust upon them.
Certain high officials are sorry
hey have to deal with the case
at all.
The original sympathy for Berg
doll here arose from the fact that
he was more martyr than the
escaped prisoner. But the attempt.
ed kidnapping has brought explapa-
.ons, and Bergdell's case is now
better understood. True Germans
nave no more sympathy with a
foreigner who lodged service to his
country than they had for their
,wn deserters, and many have been
frank to say SO In reference to the
Bergdoll case.
The dignified Frankfurter Eel
tung, which alone of all the i'm
portant German newspapers has
given the case serious attention,
has warned its readers against at.
taching any international signifi.
canoe to the kidnapping affair, and
Of the danger OF destroying the
good feeling between America and
Germany. It has suggested that
both countries regard the two men
in their true light, but added with
expressions of establishment that
the Bergdoll affair was given more
widespread attention in the Ameri.
can press than the fall of the Cuno
government or the reparations ques.
ton.
