satisfied with the arrival of 20.000
former soldierg of the United King

scheme since the war. This move

in public assistance to unemployed
and others and they add that much of
this might have been saved if these
idle persons had been transported to

OREGON' AGRICULTURAL. COL
LEGE, Corvallls, Jan. 1. (Special.)
Present experiences with sweet clover
show It is not suited to Oregon condi
tions. In comparison with vetch,
clover or alfalfa it has proved to
be inferior. Its most efficient use
secma to be as an improvement of
poor, thin soils. In the opinion of
O. C. Ruth, assistant professor of
farm crops.
"Hubam clover, which has received
much publicity lately, has nut ma
tured Beed at the station here, and
it ia subject to stem rot," said Pro
fessor Ruth. "Sweet clover has not
proved successful in pasture mixtures,
nor alone. It usually disappears after
one pasturing. Sixteen varieties have
been experimented with, but no out
standing good variety has yet been
developed."

Document Declares Japan Annexed
Country Without Consent
of Native Peoples.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Jan. 1. (By
the Associated Press.) An appeal to
the conference for a hearing, maae
public tonight by the Corean commis
sion, darried the names of delegates
said to have been elected to repre
sent each of the 260 districts of that
country. The petitioners included rep
resentatives of every class or torean,
including Prince Kwba. second son of
the late emperor, members of the no
bility, leaders of religious denomina
tions, political organizations, labor
unions and commercial bodies.
Grave risks were assumed by each
signatory, the Corean mission de
clared, because of the severity of the
methods used by Japan to suppress
nationalistic agitation.
The petition recounted the annex
ation of Corea by Japan, asserted the
r.ecessity of settling the t orean prob
lem as a prerequisite of peace in Asia
and asserted the ability and right of
Corea to self-government. The peo
ple of Corea, it said, have never given
their assent to annexation and "rec
ognize and declare that the govern
ment which we claim as our own is
cur provisional government now tem
porarily established at Shanghai."
