PARTY IN SAN FRANCISCO
Admiral Says No Action Could
Satisfy Kvery Factor In
Every Country.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 20. The ad
justments reached between China and
Japan in the Washington conference
in relation to the future of fahan-
tung, "however just and honorable
to the parties immediately concerned,
could hardly be expected, in the very
nature of things, to please every fac
tion of every country," Admiral Baron
T. Kato, member of the Japanese
delegation, said tonight in an address
here. Admiral Kato's address and one
by M. Hanihara, another delegate,
were made at a banquet to them by
the Japanese society of America. Ap
proximately 200 American and Japa
nese attended.
Admiral Baron Kato, Mr. Hanihara,
llajor-General K. Tanaka, military
adviser to the delegation, and 30 of
the secretarial force will leave for
home tomorrow.
"What is of supreme importance,
from the broadest point of view,"
Baron Kato continued, "is that the
lonc-standine and vexatious ques
tion between China and Japan has
been definitely removed. That de
eirable end has . been achieved fully
and completely.
Feeling Declared Good.
"I shall have the pleasure of re
porting to my government and peo
ple that America and Japan under
stand each other better than they
have for a quarter of a century.
Never have their aims and aspira
tions been more sympathetically
understood than at the present time.
Much of the distrust and suspicion
of other years has been swept away
and fear has given place to mutual
trust and confidence.
Discussing the details of the con
ference. Baron Kato said:
"With regard to the limitation of
the. total tonnage of submarines and
light cruisers, the Japanese delega
tion hoped for an agreement in ac
cordance with the original American
plans. We greatly regret our failure
to achieve these ends, but are grati
fied with our success in limiting the
size of auxiliary craft as well as the
size of guns.
Submarine Are Favored.
"In our opinion, submarines, if leg!
timately used, do not materially differ
from destroyers and torpedo-boats.
Because of the insular character of
Japan and the extensive line of her
coasts and because of the location of
our harbors, we feel that we must
have a certain number of submarines
which, properly distributed, may be
depended upon for adequate defense
and national security. It goes with
out saying that we are in perfect ac
cord with the sentiment which con
demns the abusive and inhuman em
ployment of submarines as illustrated
irt the late war. Hence our agree
ment here as to the future use of
submarines will. 1 am sure be ac
credited as a noble piece of work.
By. this agreement we prohibit the
illegitimate use of the undersea craft."

NEW YORK, Feb. 20. A robber
casually, walked up to a motor truck

give it to me quick," was a driver,
and behind them, in the back of the

that Russell had been employed by
the Greenwich bank for 15 years and
received a salary of $16 a week.

PLANS FOR IDLE WEIGHED
CITY PAY CUTS PROPOSED TO
HELP VANCOUVER JOBLESS.
Councilman Enright ' Would Have
New Dock Bulkheaded Sale of
. Gravel Is Suggested Also.
VANCOUVER, Wash.. Feb. 20.
(Special) A. G. Enright, a member
of the city council, at a meeting of
the Vancouver Realty Board, ex
plained his plan to provide work for
about 80 heads of families. He sug
gested that the Port of Vancouver
donate $1000, the committee handling
the funds raised by the charity bazaar
here last week $1000, and $1000 . be
raised by cutting the pay of the city
employes 10 per cent. He proposed
this fund be used to hire men at
$3.50 a day to bulkhead the new city
dock, using old planking that has to
ba torn off the old dock. The good
plank can be saved and the old plank
turned over to the city woodyard,
which has given about 400, cords to
poor familes this winter, he said.
Work for half time would be pro
vided for about five weeks Mr. En
right said, and he added that by that
time other work will have opened up.
Mayor Kiggins and Floyd A. Swan,
chairman of the Port of Vancouver,
thought the plan impractical.
Herbert J. Campbell suggested the
city hire men to get out gravel and
sell this to Portland builders, if pos
sible. A resolution was adopted favoring
any feasible plan which would create
work for heads of families in the city.

REED STORE HAS PROFIT
Bonds and War Stamps Bought
Besides Dividend.
Besides returning a dividend on
sales next fall, the Reed college co
operative store will give its members
a return upon outside- investments.
The sales the past semester have been
so profitable that Manager Hobart
Benson has invested in bonds to the
sum of $2500, besides 84 $5 war sav
ings stamps.
With the moving of the store from
the arts' building to the new commons
building. It was expected that trade
would fall off, but on the contrary
business has improved. The total
sales from September 1, 1921, to Jan
uary 31, 1922, was $5852.57, or an in
crease of $789.37. Although this sum
is small, yet when it is considered
that only 286 members belong to the
enterprise, and only purchases are
made .by the students while on the
campus, the record is proportionate to
other business ventures.

S TO GET OFFER
WEEKS TO SUBMIT ALABAMA
COMPANY'S PLAN TODAY.
Proposals of Auto Manufacturer
and Power Concern Will Be An
swered at the . Same Time.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Feb. 20. An
nouncement by Secretary Weeks to
day that he would submit to con
gress tomorrow for acceptance or re
jection the Alabama Power company's
offer to purchase and lease the Muscle
Shoals, Ala., nitrate and waterpower
projects submitted to him last Tues
day, added to the possibilities of fur
ther delay in congress of considera
tion of Henry Ford's offer for the
same properties.
The Alabama company's offer, it
was said, would be addressed tomor
row to the speaker of the house and
president of the senate, and be re
ferred by them upon receipt probably
to the military affairs committee of
the house, and agriculture committee
of the senate, both of which are en
gaged in investigating the Ford pro
posal. Chairman Kahn announced to
night that the house body would con
elude its study of the offer submitted
by the Detroit manufacturer before
undertaking hearings on the new pro
posal, but would not report them sep
arately to the house.
Joint Report to Be Made.
The plan in recommending accept
ance or rejection of the offers to the
full membership of the house, the
chairman said, would be to prepare a
joint report on all proposals congress
might receive. In this manner, it was
explained, .the Ford offer would re
main in the committee's hands, pre
venting action by the house until all
the proposals the war secretary might
submit were thoroughly investigated.
Mr. Kahn said he expected to con
elude the hearings on Mr. Ford's offer
this week and would immediately be.
gin an examination of that from the
Alabama Power company, which Sec
retary Weeks indicated today was
considered a better offer in some re
spects than that of Henry Ford.
TARIFF TROUBLES AIHED
DISCUSSION OF VALUATION
PRINCIPLES IS HELD.
House Committeemen Hold Out
Strongly for American Plan
As in House Bill.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Feb. 20.
Differences between republicans of
the senate finance committee and the
house ways and .means committee
over tariff valuation principles were
aired today at a three-hour secret
conference without any concrete re
suit. Neither side tonight appeared
hopeful of an early agreement.
The house committeemen, Repre
sentatives Fordney, Longworth and
Green, who would constitute the
majority conferees for the house on
any tariff bill proposed by the sen
ate, held out strongly at today's con
ference for the American valuation
principle as written into the house
bill. This was resisted by the sen
ate committeemen, who, in under
taking to rewrite the house measure,
long ago abandoned that principle.
The conference was requested by
the senate committee majority, fol
lowing the declaration Saturday of
Mr. Fordney that if the senate sent
back to the house a bill carrying a
foreign valuation basis as tentatively
agreed upon by senate committee re
publicans,' the ways and means com
mittee would rewrite the measure on
the basis of the American valuation
principle and the house would return
that to the senate.
Chairman McCumber said it w.as
desirable to bring about an agree
ment between the two committees 11
passible before the bill was reported
to the senate, aB time probably -would
be saved in that way.
It was explained that any change
m the valuation principle underlying
the bill would Involve a recasting of
most of the ad valorem rates or a
rewriting of a great part of the whole
measure. -.
