TOXIC, Japan, July 1.-Two
men involved in the incident of
Monday when the American flag
was torn down and stolen from the
American embassy boilding, have
been arrested, and have confessed.
The man who actually stole the
flag, however, is still at large.
The flag was recovered from a

Police have trebled their precau-

Embassy, is probably the greatest

uch action is unnecessary.
Ryohai} Uehida, leader of the Ro-
i'm, an organization which is Wig
rously protesting the American i'm
law, declared when told
f the incident of the theft of the
merican flag 1.-THE wretch is a

Other Ronin leaders were equally

Chilean border. A large number OF
artistic carvings and art objects OF
stone, copper, e~arthenware and onyx
were buried with it. The nails, teeth
and most of the hair are perfectly
preserved, as + the vital organs, ac-
cording to reports, which would indi-
cate a method of embalming that may
be superior even to the Egyptian. The
methods used to unite the different
parts of the implements, also found
in the tomb, suggest handiwork SIM
liar to that of the Egyptians.
A small tract of land near Evans

The Red Cross organization is 40
years old. Since 1882 the society has
been first in offering medical aid,
food, shelter and money to victims of
the worlds calamities. Since 1919,
the average yearly cost of disaster re-
lief has been approximately $14 ,500,-
900. Since 1881 the American Red
Cross has extended relief in 372 dis
a~sters, including cyclones, floods,
plaques, volcanic eruptions, fires,

Many Europeans and some Chinese
have taken advantage of a clause in
the Immigration Restriction Act,
which provides that any person who
has resided for a year in Mexico, Can

Brazil has produced a new textile

has been known to grow in certain To-

fine quality. 1t takes up sizing mater

SOMETHING ABOUT
EVERYTHING and
EVERYBODY

DIR. Eugene Lyman Fisk, diagnosti-
clan and author, says, "The average
person does not stand the best chance
who weighs 90 or 80 per ZEN below
the average has the best change for
long life. 1t is safe to say the aver
age individual reaches the ideal build
at 80. If he can keep near thatbuild
for the rest of his life, he increases
his chances of longevity"
Education will keep negroes in the

The little town of Djal-Ogli, in Ar
menia, is the proud possessor of the
only modern electric lighting plant in
the county. This is due to a young
American, a resident director of the
Near East Relief. He discovered an
abandoned water mill perched on the
banks of a swiftly running stream.
He repaired the mill and installed a
dynamo which generates So horse
power. Now the orphanage, the hos
pital and nearly every house in the
village is lighted with electricity, to
the astonishment of the natives, many
of whom had never seen an electric
light before.

Special arrangements will be made to

The Mennonite farmers who mi
