Kawasaki Cruisers
To Be Finished By
Toxic Navy Yards

TOXIC, July 20.-The Navy De-
partment has agreed to take over the
construction of two cruisers and four
submarines started by the Kawasaki
Dockyard Company, and abandoned by
it because of inability to pay the wag-
es of its 5000 workers.
The Kawasaki Company is going
through a financial crisis, having
been involved in the recent crash of
the 18th bank. 1t is expected, how
ever, that the company will weather
its difficulties without resorting to
the bankruptcy courts.
A recent report from Toxic that
the Japanese government would not
come to the assistance of the dock
yard has evidently precipitated the
present decision to continue the build
ing of the cruisers, important polit-
ical pressure having apparently been
brought to bear on Premier Tanaka.

Conservative and
Liberal Rate War
Splitting Canada

TORONTO, July 20.-The decen-
tralizing tendencies in the British
Empire grow stronger and are fash
ionable even down to the smallest
units. British Columbia appears this
week in the form Of delegation to
lay claims before royal commission
investigating dissatisfaction among
the prairie and other western prov
inces. British Columbia has laid for
NAL claim to large territory known
as "the Peace River block" which
was torn from the province when it
was taken into the Dominican of Can
ada.
The western provinces are also de-
handing lower freight rates. In this
they have the support of the Con-
sentative Party, which attempts to
win in the west the same credit that
the Liberals won in the maritime
provinces by granting preferential
freight rates. A reduction in the
west is expected to be followed by a
further demand on the part of the
citizens of Quebec and Toronto. who
claim geographical factors make it
Just for them to have an advantage
in rates. Hard feeling between these
two sections of the dominion grows.

British ENJOYS to
Naval Conference
Called to London

GENEVA, July 20.-The British
delegates to the naval conference, w.
c. Bridgeman and Lord Cecil, have
been summoned to London by Prem
Ter Baldwin, head of the tory gov
eminent of murder, forgery and
provocation. There are rumors here
that the two British delegates were
in disagreement over the question of
making concessions to the American
demands on 8-inch guns on cruisers.
Meanwhile the American and Japan
csc delegates are beating time and
somewhat puzzled at precisely what
move is next to be made. Both dele
cations are burning the wires with
cablegrams to their respective gov
ernments and it is generally felt that
the end of the conference is only a
matter of few days, possibly hours.
There is a possibility that some
sort of patched-up proposals, accept
able to all sides will be made on minor
points that will leave untouched the
question of cruiser tonnage and naval
bases.

Grand Duke Nicholas,
Russian White Hope, Is
Sick in Paris Chateau

PARIS, July 20.-The Grand Duke
Nicholas is reported seriously i'll at
his chateau near Paris.
Nicholas Nikolaivitch, former COM
mander-in-chief of the Czarist Rus
sian armies, is the leader of the
strongest group of Russian monar-
chists. In November, 1922, he was
elected by the monarchists as the sue
cessor TO the late Gar Nicholas.
Since that time he has been credited
with many plots to bring about the
downfall of the Soviet government of
Russia and has been recognized as
the active leader of the Russian mon
archists who are active in Europe. He
is suspected of drawing money from
England and the U. S. A.
