She will not admit that the rights of other nations are equal to her own, or that treaties now existing have any standing whatever. In the face of this rather surprising challenge of Japan, it is necessary to understand some of the. causes. , Japan sees in China a vast, undeveloped market. Given a generation of order and progress, China will be able to : absorb many times as much manufactured goods as she now buysT And Japan is a growing industrial nation. She wants this market. To care for hej people, and to raise the present low standard of living, Japan must keep her factory fac-tory wheels humming, she must even speed up the tempo. Japan dos not believe China will grow out of feudalism with sufficient speed if she is let alone. Neither does Japan believe that the Chinese war lords will behave. Hence, having hav-ing come to a conclusion about her problem, Japan acts rationally and realistically. 3j5 5j jjc The Japanese do not want war. They believe they can carry out their plans without a war. It is probable that the best informed Japanese leaders dread the consequences of armed conflict. War in these times, is expensive business. .Spokesmen for the Japanese declare, if they have their way, China will eventually be a much greater market for all kinds of goods which all nations have to sell. They deny that Americaon, trade will be damaged. v There seems no doubt but that Japan is destined to be the organizer of the Far East, and that she will be entirely . ruthless in her efforts. AmericanVand British trade have both been hit by the Japanese. The lower standard of living and the lower costs of production in Japan permit her to sell below the cost prices of many other nations. Yet there is only one answer to this, v and it isn't war. America and Britain must become more efficient. They must develop their methods of production along more scientific scien-tific lines. Eventually the Japanese people will approach our standard stan-dard of living. That is inevitable. It is one of the ajms of the Japanese leaders. When that times comes her production produc-tion costs will be about equal to ours, if we maintain our efficiency. It is silly to believe that the progress of Japan as an industrial nation can be stopped by tariffs, or treaties, or even by war. There is the problem. China cannot defend herself. Probably not more than one Chinese in a hundred cares anything about it. To the great mass of the Chinese people all governments and all rulers are bad. - America's problem is to defend herself if Japanese enthusiasts en-thusiasts get out of bounds. Skillful, honest, patriotic diplomacy is what we require. )- Rrtcrhf Mnmpnts of the day and nigrht rPins Drlgfll XVJ(OmVTll& around h.3 r Speaking of If) GrCclt UV6S scenes he had remembered on he had known and loved below.

The laborious and angerous task of searching the bottom of the ocean for sunken ships laden with treasures is much simplified by the use of a diving sled perfected in Germany. This will aid greatly in recovering the hundreds of millions mil-lions of dollars in gold in ships which strew the floor of the ocean. The heavy weights which a diver must carry in his boots to counteract the weight of his helmet hel-met and the buoyancy of his air-filled air-filled garment make it extremely dififcult for him to do much exploration. ex-ploration. Shifting tides frequently frequent-ly move big ships which have settled to the bottom of the ocean and consequently divers are often unable to locate the treasure. In this new -diving sled, the diver can descend to the bottom of the sea and be towed for' miles on the ocean's floor. The diver takes his seaT in ta manner much the same as in an airplane. A tugjtakes up the tow and when ready to dive, the operator oper-ator simply pushes forward on the joystick, which is about the same as an airpiane control. This in turn works the diving fins. The diver guides the right and left motion mo-tion of his sled by use of rudder bars, which in turn control the rudder. The sled is easily controlled, slipping along the bottom of the sea until it encounters rocks or other obstacles, in which event the operator uses his control stick and zooms up over them, returning to the sea's floor when all is clear. professors running the administration adminis-tration should cast an eye on Senator Charley McNary. . . .

And-she was bringing with her the child, a girl of 15 who. doubtless, remembered remem-bered little of her home In America. Workmen came to the camp to redecorate two suites In Field's own cottage. Pabllto had not thought, he would see the rooms, of which the servants talked with awe. but one day as e was helping help-ing one of the gardeners place a window box on a ledge outside the little girl's room Field strolled bj. lie paused, seeing Pabllto.

"Shiftless squatters never have enough money for chickens or feed," Alvarei pointed out. "This boy comes of more than squatters." "Oh, all right! Go on!" "There is not much more to tell. But I found that many whisky, bottles bot-tles had been thrown in the marsh." Field smiled: he had found a flaw in Alvarez and U pleased him.

I want to know why he wants us to think that, for the reason may be, more or less, valuable to me." ' A few-days later Jim Field's wife and daughter arrived t the camp. Norma Field was a drab shadow ot a woman with a look of lurking fear in her eyes. Estelle. a lovely slip of a girl, had been well named in being named a star. Pabllto, who .was on the beacB, saw their coming and he lost his heart Qather for the first time be was fully aware ot the capacities capaci-ties of his heart, for as he saw Estelle he felt a hard pump under the left-hand side of bis eve-less, eve-less, cotton shirt and at tbesame time the sting of hot blood Under the tan ot bis cheeks.

He heard his wife moving around In the next apartment and heard ber low-voiced low-voiced orders to a maid. "It's lovely." Estelle said softly. T hadn't dreamed there would be anything so grand In a camp" 11 She spoke a kittle haltingly and with the least bit of a foreign accent. Field, who was wont to think of desire and a full table as close companions, wondered with a little chill whether he could make his daughter like him. Making women love him, or pretend to, had been easy. J3ut,thls was new. "The color --Is lovely," she said. "1 meafiTbe combination of colors." col-ors."
