Borah Wants u. S.
To Return Seized
German PROPERTY

Washington, Feb. S.-Senator
William +. Borah, chairman of the
foreign relations committee of the
Senate. introduced bill today un-
der which the United States would
return to German nationals, without
further delay, their property seized
during the world war. Mr.. Borah
commended that this country was in
honor bound to take such action
regardless of any claims of Ameri-
can nationals which might be pend
ing against Germany, and he limited
also that he believed millions of dol.
lars had been lost to German ma
tioralists whose property was seized
by the Way the transactions have
been handled.
Not only would he have tie gov
eminent return property and funds
still in the possession of the Ameri-
can government: his bill also pro.
vides that the United States "shall
repossess itself by eminent domain
Oh all property, including patents
trademarks and copyrights seized
during the war and sold, and turn
these back TO the former enemy ma
t1onals from whom they were taken
That this could be done is doubtful:
but Mr.. Borah believes the effort
should be made, at least where there
was reason to believe that the pro-
pefties were sold knowingly for les:
than their actual value.

II Jap Sailors
Drown in Vancouver

Vancouver, =. c.. Feb. S.--SeVenteen
Japanese, including an officer, two pet
ty officers and IA sailors, were drown
ed in the harbor here early today
when the pinnace in which they were
returning to the cruiser Idzuma, after
enjoying shore leave, collided with the
Canad dian Pacific tug Nanoose. The
bodies of the officer. petty officers and
five seamen have been recovered. Nine
others are still missing.
The 1dzuma is one Of three YES els
of the Japanese navy training
squadron here on the last leg of a
10000 mile tour. The others are
the cruisers Asama and Iakumo.
The squadron is in command of Vice
Admiral Saburo Hyakutake, who was
visiting in Seattle at the time of the
accident. He is expected back to-
night to take charge of ar investi-
cation Of the disaster.
Eighty members of the Idzuma' S
crew were aboard barge being tow
ed by the Pinnace. The Nanoose al
so had 4 barge in tow. Owing to the
fact that the night was very dark,
and foggy. neither vessel was seen
by tine other until too late to avoid
collision. The Nanoose struck the
Pinnace a glanc:Eg blow which
caused it to capsize. Seven of the
PinnaCe's crew were picked up by
boats sent out from the cruisers, but
two died before reaching ship.
There was no loss among the SAIL
crs aboard the barge towed by the
Iinnace. The towline was broken in
the collision and the barge remained
upright.

the result of struggling sixty miles
from Bluff to Nome for seven and
one half hours in a binding biz

death of the famous malamute which
on the recent race to Nome with
diphtheria anti-toXin not only broke
all records for such mode Of travel
but seemed almost human in his
comprehension Of what was expected
of him.
BALTIC was eulogized by Senator
, Dill Of Washington, in the senate last
| Friday for the part he played in the
! relay into Nome. Kasson, on finish
ing the serum race last Monday, gave
the dog credit for the feat. He said

destination if it had not been for the
skill and care the leader Of his dog
team used in picking out the trail
and struggling through the blizzard
Kasson said he seldom saw the
| trail and left the route almost en-
| tirely to his dogs. kasson has re-

vaudeville circuits asking him tc
make tours with his dogs.
