Japan has conquered Manchukuo and Korea. She has an eye, it Is generally believed, upon the Islands of the South Pacific. And she has already established a virtual protectorate over North China. IIow far she will go and how soon, are the answers to a question which all the rest of the world would give a cookie to know. If the Japanese have gained control over the heathen Chinee they have certainly also bewildered him. For while the Japanese ministry of foreign affairs shakes his hand with an attitude of paternal benevolence, the Japanese army snenks up behind him and kicks him In the pants. Foreign Minister Illrota eulogizes the Chinese leader, Gen. Chlang Kalshek; army leaders Immediately dub him a fake and a fraud. Illrota honors China by making an embassy of the Japanese legation In China; the army Immediately declares Its all news to them. While Japan on one hand speaks of cooperation and the common good, Japan on the other hand goes right ahead with methods of out and out coercion. As an exeue for direct action, the Japanese army cited banditry, supposed to have been encouraged by the Chinese, and the assassination of two Chinese editors who had been friendly toward the Japanese policy. The army of Gen, In Hsueh Chung has withdrawn south of the Yellow river and the Japanese army has moved. In. clvillza-tio- n Will Dominate, Whatever government finally emerges In the North China area. It Is certain that It will be guided by Japanese policy and exped'ency. It Is doubtful, however, if any kind of political union with Manchukuo will ensue, for the two areas combined In one would be a package mighty unwieldy to carry; the Japanese believe that It will be easier to administer them separately. Under the provisions of the Tang-ktreaty of two years ago, China north of the Yellow river has been declared a demilitarized zone, but It seems the only demilitarization has been carried out by the Chi nese In moving to the south and west The Japanese army Is still there and la completing occupn tion of the province of Clinhar, which Is rich In Iron ore. This, with the other three North China provinces, Ilopel, Shantung and Shansi, will unite to form a new territorial unit, completely divorced from the Chinese national government and distinctly favornble in Its relations with Japan and Man-cl- ) ukuo. Chinese coal and Iron, and the opportunity for cotton planting, particularly In Ilopel and Shantung, have been the Incentive for most of the Japanese action; however, It Is pointed out that the loss of trade In other parts of China as a result may offset these advantages. They become doubly Important when It Is considered that Great Britain, America and other powers may extend financial aid to China.

Japan has an annual balance of trade with these heavily populated Islands that Is more than $'15, 000,000 in her favor. As to the Philippines, Japan make horrified gestures at the suggestion that her Interests there are anything but platonic. Certainly, although defending the Philippines from Japanese attack would be a mans size Job for America, the Japanese would venture no aggression there so long as the Islands are under the wing of American protection. But In 1015, according to the present agreement, ttie Philippines will get their complete political independence. With American domination will go the privilege of free trade with the United States; In fact during the next ten years the tariff on Philippine goods coming Into the United States will be annually Increased. If the economic burden becomes too great for the Philippines and there are plenty of those who say It will the islands may be forced to enter some sort of union that would givethem trade advantages with another large power. That would be Japan. Consider Russia. It must be remembered that there Is another great power which has something to say about the reapportionment of territory In East Asia. That power Is Soviet Russia, with 200,000 fighting men and a far superior air force north of Manchukuo and across the Amur river. The conllieting aims of these two powers was not so serious when Manchuria existed between them to absoib the shocks. Now their borders have moved right up against one another. Alicady border skirmishes, allegedly provoked by Japanese guns, have caused vigorous protests from the Soviet ambassador In Tokjo. The Siberian army Is far better mechanized than the Japanese, Its airplanes are modern and double the Japanese strength, and the Island of Japan Itself is a perfect setup for aerial destruction. To offset this, Japan will be moving from Interior lines, and administration of a Japanese army campaign would be possible on a much more concentrated basis, for is on the outside of a great, curving, northern frontier of Manchukuo. While Japanese could be moved In with comparative celerity! because of the proximity of the homeland and because of far superior rail facilities.

NELSON sound. There are three geologic subdivisions of the region from north to south; the High Plateau, the Terraced Plateau, and the Grand Canyon Platform. No country in the world reveals more fascinating chapters of geologic history. It has undergone great transitions, alternately sea bottom and mountain top; a region broken and titled by tremendous displacements, a region scorched and branded by volcanic action; but more than all else, from the viewpoint of human Interest, a region profoundly sculptured and given Its most distinctive character by the beauty-creatingenius of erosion. The most picturesque route is the highway 16 which runs directly south from Zion National Park. It crosses the Rio Virgen at Rockville and cLmbs the plateau. Near the Arizona boundary appear the magnificent Vermilion Cliffs which stretch across Southern Utah for great distances; they present arresting architectural effects of vast castles and cathedrals colored a rich red which become vivid vermilion in the afternoon sun. After crossing Short Creek Into Arizona, the immense blue arch of the Kaibab Plateau becomes more prominent. Upon this stretch of fascinating descent, range many wild horses, direct descendants, perhaps, of those brought to America by the Spaniards. On Cedar Ridge Is a petrified forest. The road follows Vermilion Cliffs through Kaibab Indian Reservation to Pipe Spring, a celebrated oasis, created a National Monument In 1923. Two historic stone buildings standing there were erected in 1870 in frontier style for protection from the Indians. From beneath one house flows the finest and purest spring in all this frontier domain, dally discharging 100,000 gallons of cool water. At Fredonia the road joins the main highway again and the largest virgin forest in the world, the Kaibab Forest has yet to be penetrated. The Kaibab Forest for the most part 13 as free of undergrowth as any well kept park, yet in area It covers more than 723,000 acres. Nature has somehow achieved that cleanness that permits you to look down long aisles of yellow pine, Douglas fir, and Engelmann spruce. Thousands of deer graze passively at the roadside, many requiring a warning note from the horn, to frighten them off the road. Far more reticent is the beautiful Kaibab white-tailesquirrel, found only in this forest, for he flicks from tree to tree defying anyone to approach close enough to photograph him. But before you know it you have arrived at Bright Angel Point with Its lodges and fine accommodations. Here you see your first view of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado Now, in an Instant, yon realize why so little attempt Is made to describe It appreciate how Inadequately a photograph pictures it. A labyrinth, not of one canyon but tiers of canyons, extends as far as the eye can follow. Color everywhere, vivid, subtle, and forever changing. Under your very eyes brilliant crimson changes to deep purple as the sun sinks. Words are of little avail to describe the canyon. Across the great plateau, the Colorado River has cut a series of canyons 220 miles long, a mile in depth, and twelve mile3 in width. On the north rim, a full thousand feet higher than the south rim the elevation is 8,300 feet. You are told that the canyon is not a cleft, but is the result of erosion by water, and that a natural calender revealing history centuries old, has been laid bare as the Colorado River cut its way through the rock. You can see rock strata from every era In the geological tini8 scale. When you are informed that the chasm is more than a mile deep you understand a little better how frost can be painting the trees on the rim while flowers are blossoming at the rivers edge eight thousand feet below.
