LADY ASTOR HITS
 AT JAP EXCLUSION
Sees in It Cause for War in
 the Future

1 London, May 7.-Lady Astor speak ing before conference of the inter-
 national council of women ct Wem- ! bley today, declared that America
 had more societies for the propaga- tion of peace than any other coun- 1 try in the world but that only re- gently a dangerous thing had hap pened in the senate with reference to Japan that might lead to a war some time in the future.
 Lady Astors statement with regard to the senate's action on the Japa- nese exclusion clause of the immigra- tion bill appeared to be somewhat in the nature of an Interpolation as her subject was the drink traffic. She was discussing international peace, hav- ing introduced this topic by saying that the liquor question had a very definite bearing on international peace.
 Discusses Drink Question
 "I never knew anybody who was made more peaceful by drink" she declared amid laughter. She said the most notorious and recent example Of international friction fostered by the liquor trade was the rum-running episode which had been checked, she hoped, by the Anglo-American agree ment and extension of the right of search. She declared that she would like to assure her American friends that public opinion in Great Britain was deeply ashamed of the inglor- ious business of rum-running.
 "gou will not prevent war by talk ing peace, you must live peace" she said and then referred to the senate's action with regard to Japanese ex- clusion.
 Discussing the British West Afri- can colonies she said that the drink traffic there was adversely affecting the white mans prestige.
 ITO drink is becoming the hall mark of the white man and the na- tives think the best way to become a white man is to drink" she assert ed, adding that she thought the whites should do without liquor for the benefit of the natives.
 Annie suruhjelm, who for a de- cadc was a member of the Finnish declared that prohibition had rot been good for Finland. It hal led to smuggling she said, and she had been told that children even came tc school drunk because liquor had been smuggied into their homes by their parents who could not buy and drink it in public.

 Never" said Burns.
 Now Gaston Means was carried on the blue list of the department of justice, for some time after he left service officially" Senator Wheeler said.
 Yes, but don't know how long"
 The blue list' is the departments payroll for secret agents not off, cially employed. Means was on this list, Burns explained, at the request of the New York district attorney in connection with whiskey cases.

 T decline to answer" Burns said finally, when Wheeler pressed for the identity of the cases. Tt would be giving out confidential matter"

Elks Plans for West
Slope Game Preserve

Grand Junction News
At meeting of Exalted rulers and
secretaries of the various lodges Of
Elks in Western Colorado in Montrose
last Tuesday, called for the purpose of
taking steps toward having a game
preserve made of the San Juan noun
tain district, it developed that the late
Enos Mills, noted Rocky Mountain
naturalist and author, was the origin
ator of the idea, claiming that the
San Juan country and the Grand mesa
are the two greatest assets to the
Western Slope.
The representatives of each lodge
stated that they would lend all the
assistance possible to make the pro-
! ject success, and it was the sense of
the meeting that the Western Slope
had already left dormant the greatest
possibilities of tourist attraction in
the state.
The gradual formation of an or
ganization for the purpose of boosting
the San Juan preserve and playground
will be carried on and it is hoped that
within a reasonable time to have a
stream of tourists coming into the
Western Slope country to view the
marvellous scenery and beauty Of the
lregion.
It is believed that all the elk re
quired for stocking the game preserve
can be obtained thru the National
Park commission from the jackson
Hole country. The tourist business In
