KenOshan Draws
Jail Sentence
Christ Christman Sent TO Jail in RAJ
cine for Driving an Automobile
While Intoxicated.

Twenty days in the house Of correc-
tion at Milwaukee was the sentence
melted out to Christ Christman, resi-
dent of Kenosha, in the Racine muni-
cipal court Monday He was alleged to
have driven his automobile while he
was intoxicated Sunday afternoon and
his arrest was brought about by
deputy sheriff.
Sheriff WHEREBY Of Racine county
explained that Christman was driving
his car around the curve south Of
Lakeside, opposite the Case company's
fire station, when it left the concrete
roadway and ran on the side of the
highway for considerable distance.
Then it went onto the electric railway
tracks and overturned. One of the
front wheels of the machine and the
top were wrecked, Christman being
dragged out from the debris.
He was practically unhurt and the
county authorities wonder at his good
fortune in escaping as he did.

Mrs. Miklas Starts Divorce
Action in Court Against
Husband, Paul.
KICKED HER Is CHARGE
Tells In Complaint of Being
Kicked, Slapped, Starved,
and Abused.

Action for divorce against her hus-
band, Paul, has been started in cir
cult court by Mrs. Julia Miklas on
grounds of cruel and inhuman treat
ment. According to the complaint,
the husband is the possessor of an
"ungovernable temper" which he
makes free use of around his home.
There are Ave children, Paul, age
%; Anna, FL; Mary, 10; John, 10;
Elizabeth, years old. Mrs. Miklas
states that on various occasions he
has applied vile names to the girls,
likened their mother to a woman Of
the streets. and in addition has con-
tinually found fault with them and
slapped and kicked them, the COM
plant states.
When Anna was 16 years old the
father was SO Swantonly cruel to her"
that she left the house.
Abused Wife-Charge.
Mrs. Miklas charges that on the 4th
of this month the husband went into
one of his worst tantrums, and that
as the result of being slapped on the
right ear, her hearing has been inn
paired. She claims that in this battle
the husband kicked her, beat her with
his fists and slapped her, while calling
her names.
She alleges that the other occasions
when he has beaten and viciously
abused her, are "innumerable." These
attacks, she says were without cause,
for she claims to have always con-
Quoted herself in decorous manner
To further complicate her marital
difficulties, her husband informed her
on March 9Th that he would not give
her any money for the upkeep of the
house, or to buy food for herself or
the children. This she alleges, has
happened before.
Asks for Children.
In addition to the divorce, which
she claims her husband has often ex-
pressed a wish for her to obtain, she
asks for the custody Of the minor chill
dren, charging that the father is not a
fit person to have charge of them.
She states in the complaint that
they own a home valued at $4,000 and
have cash balance in the United
States National bank of $1,000. They
were married in Kreine, Austria, in
November of 1897, the wife states.

TRADE RECORD
HIGHER PRICES IN INTERNATIONAL TRADE

the export list, 43 show advances
and 81 declines.
These records of advance or de-
cline in the monthly average inn
port and export prices, says the
Trade Record. are especially inter-
esting in the opportunity which they
offer to study world conditions in
prices of the leading articles OF
commerce and those of the great
groups of articles forming the inn
port and export trade. The laws
of the United States require the
statement of the value of imported
articles to show their actual
market value or wholesale price in
the country from which exported"
and our export prices represent the
value of the respective articles in
the ports of the United States
whence they are exported" at the
date of their expectation. The adj
yances or declines in import prices,
therefore, represent price conditions
abroad and those on the export side
the advance or decline represents
price conditions in the United
States.
This comparison of the December
1928 prices with those of the corre-
spending month of one year earlier
indicates that the chief advances
in prices of the articles which we
bring from abroad have occurred
in manufacturing materials, while
in foodstuffs the number of enuncr-
ated articles showing advances is
no greater than the number show
ing reductions. Out of the 81
articles of manufacturing material
included in the list above named,
Is showed higher prices in the
country from which shipped to the
United States, while II showed a
reduction, this being the actual
market value or wholesale price in
the country from which exported"
This valuation of prices abroad
is distinctly a world average" by
reason that the average import
price of each article is determined
by combining the total figures Of
quantities and value of the re-
spective articles reaching our ports.

JAPAN'S PRESS HITS
RADICAL PROTESTS
Cautious japanese to Be Patient
Until U. S. Congress Repents
New Exclusion Act.
U. S. ATTITUDE IS SCORED
Oriental Civilization Called Worthy
of American Respect.
BY r.. II. EGGER,

by cable to The Star and Chicago Daily
News. Copyright. 1874
IohlO. June 6.-Japanese news
papers comment in a more dipnifed
and calmer vein on the protest against
the exclusion clause in the new Aneri-
can immigration law. Generally they
adopt the attitude that the present
time is not auspicious for demanding
reconsideration of the alleged dis
criminatory clause. although they cx-
press firm determination that Japan
must continue opposition until the
matter is properly settled.
The Tomyo Ashai Shimbun empha-
sizing the American protest against
the Russian treatment of American
Jews, declares that the japanese
protest is analogous and is equally
justified.
The stand taken by the United
states" says the Toxic Nichi Nichi
Shmbun, lis evidently that the Jap
anese cannot assimilate American
ideas and habits. Japan takes issue
with the statement saying that the
decision is premature. This raises
large issue and what the consequence
or the relations of the two countries
in International affairs will be, time
alone will show"
Ihe jill ShimpO declares that tho
protest expresses the sentiment of
the Japanese nation and it believes
that majority of the Americans
share the same sentiment. II says
that the great factor in carrying out
the anti-Japdnese movement was the
defective administration system in
the United States. II would be unWise.
IL concludes, to expect an immediate
solution of tho problem. and says IT
would be best to wait patiently until
the American Congress rcpents Of its
follicS.
Americans Called Hasty.
The Americans are too much like
spoiled children to change their At
titude rs a result Of Il mere protest
of another nation" says the Yomuri
Shimbun. The hest plan for bring
ing A reconsideration Of the decision
is a more careful consideration OF
Japanese civilization by Americans
They are too hasty in concluding that
Japanese civilization is inferior to
theirs.
THE difference is merely between
customs and manners and not he
tween ideals and principles. Japan
occupies the unique position of being
able to create "A new civilization that
will convince the Americans that they
arc unjust in regarding this nation as
inferior. This cannot he accomplish
ed through mere imitation. but re-
quires original effort. independent
work. harmony and selection of the
best ideals.
