Mir. Squires, Chief of the land De- partment of the Forest Service, says there is absolutely no truth in the statement that the rents on fox farm lands have been raised from 25c to s2.5O per acre. As matter of fact rents are not based on acreage. They are fixed at minimum rate of S25.OO year with a limitation of 2500 acres. Very few of the fox farmers are paying more than s25.O0 a year. It would seem that 25OO acres is fair ly go, d sized ranch on which to build ccrrals.

JAPANESE CABINET HAS
AGREED ON BASIS FOR
RUSSIAN NEGOTIATIONS

TOXIC, July 25.-The Japanese
cabinet has agreed on a basis of
negotiations with Soviet Russia for
the recognition of that government.
Diplomatic conversations" have
been in progress for some time be-
tween Japan's representative, M.
Yoshikawa, and the Soviet envoy,
now ambassador, to Peking, M.
karakhan.
The Japanese representative re-
turned here several weeks ago and
1t was then assumed that Japan
would proceed with official neeotia-
tons to reach an agreement and
treaty with the Soviet government.
The outstanding obstacle between
the two nations was northern SAX
IaIin Island, which has valuable oil
resources. The Japanese occupied
this territory after the NicoIaievsk
affair, aItho it Is claimed by the
soviets, who have granted Harry
Sinclair, the American oil capitalist,

the trial proceedings have been

The work of investigation connect
ed with the trials has been completed
and the accused divided into three
groups.
The trials, instead of beginning
July 20, as announced, will begin July
20. Three courts are to be set up
for the hearings instead of two, as
had been planned. These will be:
A court to try the fifteen alleged
ringleaders in the movement, which
included besides refusal to perform
duty, the formation of secret sol
diers' union, intended to seek equali-
cation of pay with white soldiers.
Brig. Gen. Douglas Macarthur al
ready has been named to head this
court. The principal charge against
these men is melting a mutiny.

Negroes Died in Coop
Burned for Insurance?

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 25.-rhe
coroner's investigation into the col
lapse here of Negro rooming house
has revealed criminal contempt for
safety.
The house caught fire and collapsed
following an unexplained explosion.
1t was very heavily insured both
against fire and explosion-s70, 900 in
all. There were twenty-five large cans
of gasoline in the basement.
Fifteen dead bodies were recovered
and it is hoped that this is the total
death roll. The house was built less
than year ago, there we're no fire
escapes, only one entrance and half
the thirty-six rooms were those hor-
rible unsanitary coops to which the
poor are sentenced-rooms without
windows, lighted by gas day and
night. There was no fire wall and
the joists were not anchored to the
walls.
Housing conditions in the Black
Belt are typically American. It's popu-
lation has grown from $4,000 to $4,000
in decade but no extension OF the
Belt is tolerated. Hardy men who
move out are bombed, their families
endangered. Seventeen families have
already been bombed this year-some
several times.
