Cinderella
GeiSha Girl Who Rose to
Power in Japan Paid
Honor in Death.

BIZ United Press
TOXIC, April 1.-The third
Il daughter of a poor fisherman,
unwanted drudge of the family,
who was sold into the red light
district of Toxic, was paid eX-
Extraordinary honorS in death today.
She was the Countess Tokiko
Yamamoto, a cinderella of orien-
tai life.
Sixty years ago the girl was
brought to an establishment in
the notorious Yoshiwara quarter
of Toxic. She was so attractive
that a young Japanese naval Of
ficer became enamored.
Unable to break the family
contract by which she had been
sold into lifelong servitude as a
geisha girl, the naval officer de-
cided to kidnap her. After
great difficulties he succeeded in
smuggling her away
After their marriage, the naval
officer and his bride established a
home from which the husband
managed a vigorous political cam
paign which brought him recog-
milton from the government.
He rose to power, finally was
created a count, and eventually
became japanese premier-the
most powerful man in the king
dom outside the royal family.
The girl, who as a child had
been bufeted by fate. became the
dictator of court ritual and Toxic
fashion, and for thirty years
matched her husbands political
position by her charm.
She died Thursday and the en-
tire nation paid her homage.

FRENCH POWER
PROHIBITS WAR,
SAYS SPEAKER
Germany DareS Not Fight,
Asserts LeeS-Smith at
Town Hall.

Germany dares not make war now
because of the overwhelming mill
tary supremacy of France, declared
H. B. Lees-Smith, former member
Of the British cabinet, before the
last Town Hall audience of the sea-
son at the Columbia Club Friday
Peace is being kept in Europe
today" the speaker said" because
of the military power of France.
Il do not think that Adolf Hitler
will make war. He is more moderate
today than he was ten days ago.
Hitler knows that if he made war
now he would be smashed like an
egg hit with a hammer.
Would Stay Forever
France would cross the Rhine on
the first pretense. She would seize
it and stay there for the next 100
years.
Lees Smith asserted that England
does not want European peace Sc
cured by the military position of
France, and that the new British
peace program is based on that
factor.
England" he said, gradually has
recongized certain facts and asks
questions. How long is the peace
Of Europe to be maintained by the
French army?
Pleads for Peace Spirit
eve now must bring to Europe
spirit of peace instead of a spirit
of war"
Lees Smith maintained that it is
folly to talk disarmament before
correcting the Legitimate grievances
Of the Treaty of Versailles"
Only after revision of the treaty
can peace in Europe be assured and
armies reduced, he said

believes the load was cigarets.
Deatline asserted he did not
know what made up the load, which
was placed on the truck at Louis

a revolver through a lowered win
dow, forced Deatline to halt.

tered the sedan, and the man with
the revolver took the wheel of the
truck. Deatline was bIindfolded
and forced to lie on the floor of the
automobile Both machines were
driven nOrthWard.
His captorS asked him what was
in the truck. Deatline responded
that he did not know, as the load
was placed on the truck at Louis
vile and drivers seldom see the
loading.

was released from the automobile
nine miles south of indianapolis and
a mile west of the old Shelbyville

mile and a half west of Road so. be-
tween Seymour and Mt. Vernon"
Deatline went to farm house and
telephoned Riddle the news of the

They Consider 1t Unfair That
Their Streets Are Left Out
Of Hard Surfacing Scheme
MAY BE REORGANIZATION

Some Of the citizen whose
homes are on Glenburnle road.
Tenney circle, and the eastern
most blocks Of Rosemary lane
and North street. appeared be
fore the board Of aldermen at the
meeting last week to protest
against the proposed plan II tie
street improvements to be made
with money from the Civil
Works Administrators and
when The money is obtained.
The fault that these citizens
found with the plan wa, that.
while it provided for the hard
surfacing Of most Of the dirt
streets in the village, It ignored
Rosemary lane and North street
from Glenburnie to Boundary,
the block Of Glenburnie running
down from the Koch place to "
G. Coker's corner. and Tenney
circle
Another objection that has
been advanced against the plan
is that it does not provide for
hard-surfacing Pickard lane
from Franklin street to Rose
mary lane
So far the project has not
been officially approved by
CIV A. headquarters iii Raleigh.
The layout prepared By the al
dermen's S committee is tentative,
and there is ample time for it
to be re-examined.
An application to the C.W.A.
for aid in a project Of this sort
states the total number Of
square yards to be surfaced, the
amount Of labor required in
terms Of man-hours, and the
amount Of material required, and
presents an estimate Of the total
cost. The C.W.A. does not de-
mand to pass upon all the de
tails Of the Improvement; it
leaves these to the community.
Thus, if this project is approved,
the Chapel Hill town govern
ment may decide for itself what
streets shall be hard-surfaced
