COMPLAINT IS FILED
AGAINST OUTLOOK
MAN FOR ASSAULT

A criminal complaint, charging
David Mehalry of Outlook with as
sault upon the person Of Robert Eng
Ter, ID year old boy, was made by
his mother Mrs. Eva Engler on Mon
day of this week, and Mr. Meharry
appeared in the Justice Court Of f. F.
Belanski on Tuesday where he plead
ed not guilty and asked for trial by
jury which was set for April 4th at
I2 P. M.
Feeling in Outlook is running quite
high over this incident, and sides have
been taken in the matter, some con-
demning Mehary for his treatment of
the boy, while others maintain that
it was what was necessary to put a
stop to some rough tactics that have
been resorted to by a few of the
young folks at Outlook lately.
According to reports Mr.. and Mrs
Meharry went to the farm Saturday
evening leaving their daughter in
Outlook and who asked in some girl
friends. During the evening a num-
Der of boys and girls came there
some saying they were invited, anC
others claim they were unlimited

Mdharry's daughter is reported to
have tainted away after which the
party broke up.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Meharry re-
turned to Outlook Sunday he became
very indignant over certain things
that occurred, including pulling the
hasp out of the storm door, and start
ed hunting for the boys. He en-
countered the Engler boy in front of
the postoffice and is alleged to have
given him drubbing 1t is also al
legged that Alfred Meharry, Dawes
son, took it upon himself to further
dhastise the boy, which eventually led
to the arrest.

The Canadian authorities will also
establish a Customs and immigration
office Immediately across the bound
ary line so that the travelling public
desiring to cross the boundary line on
the new Regina road that connects
with Plentywood will experience NO
difficulty in obtaining passes or in
bringing purchases from one country
to the other, as they are now exper-
iencing.
This will mean a tremendous in
crease in the tourist traffic through
Plentywood and towns further south,
as the public will not be obliged to de-
tour through Westby, Whitehall or
Dooley in crossing the line. 1t will
also mean a considerable increase in
sales in our local stores, as many
Canadians will come here to trade
who have been prevented from so do
ing in the past owing to the long de-
tours for the purpose Of paying du-
ties on the goods purchased here.

A heated and lengthy right-of-way

that McCarl's car was being driven this

JAPAN STILL SEEKS
70 PER CENT RATIO
Toxic Emphasizes Schedules
Given Reed Were Framed to
Reach Quota Exactly.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TOXIC, February 15.-Although the
British press appears. to assume that
Japan Is prepared to give up her claim
for 10 per cent of American naval
tonnage, since that claim was not men
toned in the Japanese memorandum
published this week.. it is emphasized
here that Japan has no such inten-
ton.
On the contrary, it is explained, the
ScheouleS given in the japanese memo
randum, and the note handed Senator
Reed last Wednesday. are so framed as
to give Japan exactly 20 per cent of
American strength in total auxiliaries
and in large cruisers.
It was learned today from an unin-
peachable source that figures previously
quoted In the two alternative schedules
proposed to the American delegation
were only substantially correct" The
actual figures are, for the first schedule !:
american, large cruisers. 10000 tons:
Japan, 10000 tons. America, small
cruisers, $4,000 tons: Japan. 81 700
tons. America. destroyers, $50, 900 tons !;
Japan, 10000 tons. America, sub
marines, $1,000 tons: Japan, 1890
tons.
In the second proposed schedule the
figures we're: America, large cruisers,
100000 tons; Japan, 1884, tons;
America, small cruisers, $4,000 tons;
Japan. 107,700 tons; America, destroy
ers, 10000 tons; Japan, los, 900 tons
America, submarines, $1,000 tons;
Japan, 1890 tons.
If America desires only $4,000 tons OF
submarines, Japan is willing that she
should transfer 81 900 tons to her de-
stroyer category. which then would be-
come I'll 900 tons. Japan, however
would retain 1900 tons of submarines

THOUSANDS WALK
AS TROLLEYS STOP
Queer Power House Accident
Ties Up Traffic at
Rush Hour.

Thousands of Government employees
were forced to walk to work from stalled
street cars early today when the most
serious tie-up in recent years stopped
every Capital Traction line in the city
and numerous Washington Railway &,
Electric lines in the northwest section.
The tie-up came at the peak of the
morning rush and from 1882 until $3.50
not a wheel turned on the Capital
Traction system. Most of the lines of
the w. r. g. E. were out of commits
sion for about 10 minutes, due to in
tersecting systems where both COM
panieS use the same tracks.
Strange Accident Blamed.
A strange mechanical accident in the
Georgetown power plant of the Capital
Traction Co. was blamed for the jam.
An "air pocket" formed in the water
feed line leading to the boilers. This
caused the steam to diminish and 1t
was impossible to generate electricity
until the feed line was cleared.
Most of the several hundred cars
halted were filled to capacity with
passengers.
TaXtcab drivers reaped rlcn harvest
but the demand far exceeded the supply.
Every available bus OF both traction
companies was placed in operation, but
were unable to cope successfully with
the situation.
Motorists BeSieged.
Motorists in every section were be-
sieged with requests for lifts" Even
so, scores of persons were left standing
more than half an hour at car stops
throughout the city.

PRESIDENT SEEKS
AST-M|NUTE PRIZE
Hoover Makes Final Attempt
to Land Big SaiIfish Before
Returning Home.
BY RUSSELL YOUNG,
STAFF Correspondent OF The St

Otdn Correspondent Oh Inc star.
LONG KEY, Fla, February IS
President Hoover this morning again
was out in the Gulf stream of the At
lantic, about 10 miles from shore, in a
final effort to make a Worthwhile
catch. Unless he fares better during
these last hours of his Florida outing
he is going back to Washington a sore
ly disappointed angler.
The Presidents luck has been none
of the best. He has been disappointed,
but by no means crestfallen or dis
gruntled. He has fished long and hard
and brought into play all manner of
patience and technique, but his score
is about the poorest of any one in his
party.
Sailfish Are Standard.
Sportsmen here consider nothing
worthwhile but a Sailfish. That deni-
zen appears to be the only thing by
which an angler may establish himself
The President has the satisfaction of
having caught one, on his first day out
1t weighed As pounds, but no fisher
man of his skill and reputation would
boast of landing only one of these
fighters in five days of steady fishing
in waters said to abound in them. Ten
Sailfish have been caught by the men,
bers of the party, three by Mark Sulli-
van, two by DR.. Vernon Kellogg, two
by Justice Stone and one each by Mrs
Hoover and Mrs. Stone.
Hearing sailfish were plentiful in the
vicinity of Sombrero Key, IS miles
away, the President went there yeSter-
day, but this expedition turned out to
be nothing more than a pleasant ride
Mark Sullivan was the only one to land
Sailfish.
Hoover Catches 5-POund Mackerel.
The Presidents contribution to yes
terday's catch was a 5-pound Spanish
mackerel, group of kingfish and bar
racuda of tender age.
1t was we'll after dark when the
party returned last night.
The President left today with nc
definite hour for his return. Box
luncheons were taken in case he decid-
ed to stay out until the last moment be-
fore getting back in time to change
clothes and board the train for Wash
ington.
The train bearing the presidential
party will leave here soon after supper
tonight and will arrive in Washington
Monday morning in time to put the
President at his desk at his customary
hour.
