JAPANESE PROTEST
U. S. SHIPPING LAW
Declare Application Would Be Bad
Blow to Trade Across
y Pacific.
BY L. II. EGGER.

TOXIC, April 16.-Government au-
thorities, steamship companies and
trade organizations are launching a
nationwide campaign against en-
forcement of article 2S of the Euited
States shipping law, scheduled to be-
come effective May 90. The leading
shipping companies are urging
counter measures should the article
become effective.
The latest development in the cam
paign Is the decision of the Toxic
Chamber of Commerce to urge Pre-
mier Kfvoura to lodge an official pro-
test The chamber Is also planning
the article and to request American
chambers of commerce to unite in
seeking its repeal.
Marine Meeting Called.
The department of communications
has called a meeting of officials of
the marine affairs society with the
the view of securing expert opinions
regarding the problem confronting
Japanese shipping.
The Osaka society recently adopted
a resolution and dispatched il to the
cisco, Tacoma, Seattle, Portland and
New York. The resolution requests
the support of American chambers
and declares that the article jeop-
ardizes American and Japanese COM
mercial relations.
See Blow TO Traders.
A manifesto of the shipping COM
panies distributed to the Japanese
trade organizations declares that the
article win result in the American
mercantile marine monopoliZing the
transpaclfio shipping and unbal-
ancing the mutual freight system,
which will infiict a severe blow to
japanese trade with America.
The article not only runs counter
to the spirit of the Japanese-Ameri
can commercial treaty but IL also
renders the Japanese lines unable to
sustain the navigation routes already
acquired says the manifesto.

himself merely as servant of the rulers, he considers himself superior to the people of France because he is following leaders who are stronger and wiser than Frances leaders.
 The success of the Dawes plan, it may be predicted. will depend upon the United States to great extent for in this country there must be floated at least half of the great, loans which the plan provides for Germany. It is good guess, too, that Frances re- taxation of her hold upon the Ruhr would come if England will stand by France in forcing Germany to adopt and live up to the terms of the plan. but France will not give up in the Ruhr until she is assured of this sup port. The willingness of the people of this country to help float the loans, therefore. has an important bearing upon the success of the plan.
 But the history of negotiations with Germany leaves the warning that no matter what she accepts" she will try to escape her obligations unless she has constantly before her. the realization that there is a united de- termination in France and England to force her to keep those obligations.

A SERIOUS QUESTION

Now no one should smile and turn aside from this comment, scorning to consider it further as being beneath notice, for it is not. It is a mention of. most serious matter over which thinking people of the world are be- coming much concerned. Tn no at tempt at humor it is declared that this serious affair is the practice of bobbing the hair by girls and women.
 It is said 2,O0o of them have their hair bobbed every day in New York.
 It has been said. that bobbing the hair makes it more luXuriant.
 But now 1t is said that If the thing continues we will have race Of women as thoroughly addicted to badness as are the men-and every one knows that the bald-headed man, after reaching middle life. is the rule rather than the exception. For, they say, bohbing injures the hair.
 So it comes to serious discussion, and we are not joking about it. 'To bob or not to bob" that is the ques- ton. Are those right who declare that cutting the hair of women does it good? Or are those right who declare that 1t will never come in again as well as before the operation?
 Moreover the horrible prophecy ex- tends to the children. It is claimed by some that cutting the childs hair fre- quently harms it. True, many of the statements disappearing of bobbing the hair comes from. hair dressers who would be put out of business, perhaps, if there were to be no long hair to work over. And those who make a business of bobbing hair say. many of them, that it will come in more lux uriantly. There are plenty of wit nesses to the truth of this statement. AFe tHPTc ds Iiunl Nno Nll ttslils that bobbing their hair was serious mistake?
 We arc concerned. We do not un- dertake to advise. But we do declare that we would hate to look forward to time when a glorious head of hair would no longer be woman's crowning glory. The bobbers declare 'once bob bed, always bobbed." The greater con- venience, etc, makes it popular, as well as the fad. vogue or mode, call it what you will.
 But let other Investigations cease temporarily. Let the great minds of the country be turned to this subject, for above all things womcn's hair must be saved, preserved and wor- shipped.

AN INEVITABLE THING

When civilization reaches full de- velopment, as far as such a thing may be attained, all advocacy of ignorance will have fallen. Proper, scemly study of man and mans relations to man will be general. As long as we seek protection behind the shield of ig- noranee, we subscribe to the fallacy 'where ignorance is bliss 'tis folly to be wise" We emulate the ostrich which is said to bury its head in the sand and remain in happy content without knowledge of approaching danger.
 The dispatch comes from Washing ton that the question of whether or not the circulation of birth control should be permitted is being threshed out in committee. It was csntcnded that the bill dealing with the subject be reported favorably. The measure will not teach birth control: will make To new legislation on the subject. It will merely strike from the statute books the prohibition placed there in 1873 forbidding tRe circulation Of cd ucational litcrattfe along this line. It would place the United States by the side Of every other country of She world in failing to elevate ignorance on ihe most vital matter of life to a pedestal
 study of this matter is inevitable II must come. No matter whether a person advocates birth control or is violently opposed to it. Knowledge Of ihc subject. a study Of it--tiese alone will make it possible to take wise stand on the merits or demerits of birth control.

This is tho ninth chapter of How I Made My Millions" F, l.. Doheny's own story Of his life. In previous chapters he told how he made his fortune, which made him one Of the richest men in America and brought him into the limelight Of the senate oil investigation.
 No man can do big business today without beins'cngagcd in government affairs.
 And the men who know these af- fairs must be consulted in business.

Germany would at once look with kindly eyes upon # and sec possibili- ties Now that France seems to Dc considering it possible, Germany re- fuses 10 consider it
 The psychology or the thing is sim pIicity itself. 1f France fsvors some thing Germany believes that some thing must be unfavo~abie 10 her and vice versa. When France goes so far as to indicate. as she has done. thai she might relax her hold On the Enhr under conditions suggested by the Dawes plan. then Germany believes that The scheme must be very favor able indeed to France.

 Public men are hired for that which they can do foI their employer cr company. They are supposed 10 do the best they can-- and they usually do.
 Of all the men of influence whom I have employed, haven't met any not even McAdoo--who didn't do tho utmost.
 The employment of such men of influence is like the employment of a physician. If they can prevent you from getting sick, you never know how much they have accomplished.
 And there certainly is more satis- faction D the adviser, who prevents and helps. ihan fin any other.
 This was the type Of advice ex- pccted to get from the late Secretary Lsne-the advantage Of his wisdom, his help in making contacts. the di- plomacy in obviatine friction.
 Big lawyers are supposed to have these facuqies--to exercise their fac ulties, like physicians, in preventing trouble. But not all of them do.

 Being the advice in regard to wom- en given by the Patriarch in his nine hundred and siyty-ninth year to. his great grandson, Shem.
 My son, wouldst thou flatter wom- en? I counsel thee, avoid general ities, say not unto her, Thou art fair, my love, thou rejoicest my heart with thy eomeliness.
 But let thy words be definite; go thou into details, and it will cause her much joy.
 Say unto her, To, thy nostrils are proud, they show thy caste; and thine ear is like unto seashell. it is far too little. How cunning are tho tips of they fingers, and the line of thine eyebrows, naught can excel.
 For she knoweth her points: good and bad knowcth she them all, from the greatest unto the smallest. Thou eanst not teach her. She whom thou lowest must laugh when thou laughest, and weep when thou weepest, but if she weepeth when thou laughcst and laugh when thou weepest, woe unto thee
