tical plans and plots which went
awry this Spring owing to the death
of the Emperor and the decision of
financial interests that an election
this year would be an economic mis-.
take, are now being reburnished for
1923.

the Constitution and give 100000
or more new voters the opportunity

Premier Waksatsuki, head of the

EIGHT ARRESTS
IN JAIL BREAK

JOLIET. Ill. March 14.-While
arrests were being made as the re-
suit of the jail break Saturday, two
other conyicts made a dash for lib
erty this morning but were recap
tured.
Love letters and bribery aided the
three Mexican convicts, all sentenced
to be hung for murders, to escape
last Saturday. Officials believe two
women and two men arrested,
charged with being accomplces,
will clear up the Jail break. Eight
have now been arrested.
Leo Brant, Chicago policeman is
dead. Four others wounded in the
break last Saturday are expected to
recover.
OF the six convicts attempting the
jail break last Saturday, five were
recaptured and the sixth, Mexi-
can, is still at large.

from the salmon industry every
year, a large part of which is
thrown back into the water with re-
sultant pollution
All this waste is valuable for
fish meal and stock food" continued
the Commissioner. 1T would cost
the Government very little to teach
the fishermen how to utilize the
waste and to teach the agriculturists
and stock raisers how important it
is for food purposes, with result

But money is necessary for an cleo
tion in Japan as in any other coun-
try. When the great business and
financial interests of the Empire esti-
mated it would cost more than 81
O00.00 it was decided that costly
election on top of this huge expense
could not be borne by the country.
The leaders of the Seiyukai and
Seiyuhonto opposition parties, were
also ready and prepared for the dis
solution and new election. The mat
ter had gone so far as the introduc'
tion in the Diet of vote of non.
confidence which, ordinarily, would
have meant instant dissolution. But
the Premier prorogued instead Of
dissolving. and during the interim
the "men behind" stepped in and
ordered peace and tranquility for the
present session. Consequently the big
guns were silenced and it is prob
able the Diet will adjourn May 25
