charges Ir. Kanbo Masso, professor of
law at the Kioto Imperial University,
im a criticism of the war policy in the
lokio Asahi, according; to advices re
ceived here.
i He. tate.i that in establishing" the
emharso, America had Japan in mind.
and that the direct motive was to in
iu e Japan, to send more ships to the
'..Atlantic. Ho recommends instead that
the Japanese place on the Atlantic one-
' half or some other percentage of the
vessels- Japan builds with iron supplied
ty tins country.
- "While America" says Dr. 'Masso,
has don nothing substantial yet
the allied cause, Japan has done much
in that direction. Soon after the out
break of war Japan joined on the side
of the allies and deprived Germany of
her base in the Kast; she has insured
the safety of the Pacific and the Indian
Ocean, dispatched her warships even as
far as the Mediterranean and afforded
much facility to the allies for the trans
port of war materials.
"As resrard,? America's decision to
put an embargo on iron and steel al
ready contracted for, this is a breach
of international grood faith and such
ftep is destined- to impair her prestige
seriously.
"Another point to which America's
attention must be directed is that as
the result of the present embar
Japan may be compelled (though not
from motives of reprisal) to withdraw
from the Atlantic some of her steam
ers now operating- there and even to
iaK steps to proniou me charter or
sale of Japanese vessels to foreigners,
such an eventuality will be scarcely to
America s advantage. t

Engineers In Washington Get Reports
Mixed Vp and Work Is, in
Consequence Delayed.
ortEOONTAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Oct. 20. -Senator Chamberlain
today asked the chief of engineers to
order a survey looking to a 85-foot
.-hannel In the Columbia River from
the mouth to Vancouver. He was told
the River and Harbor Board had been
asked by" the .Secretary of War to sub
mit a report on this item, estimated
to cost S15.U00. The survey can only
I be made by order of Secretary Baker,
the chief of engineers saw.
There, is an adverse report on file
from the local engineer officer at Port
land, who apparently does not under
stand mat the 35-foot channel Is de
sired from Portland to the sea, for his
objection Is directed against a 85-Yoot
channel to Vancouver from Portland,
when there Is only 27 feet at points in
the Lower Columbia channel.
It Is understood the report forward
ed by Colonel Zinn. Corps of Engineers,
U. S. A., was based largely on the ad
visability of undertaking a aa-foot
channel project during the period of
the war; also that it might be best to
devote all energies on actually complet
ing the 30-foot project on the Lower
Columbia. As to the latter, there are
a few places where less than 30 feet
is said to be found at eittreme low-
water, though there Is a tidal influence
always, so that the condition really of
fers no impediment to present-day navi
gation. Another feature of the 35-foot Im
provement Is that It would, of course,
extend from Portland to Astoria, and a
30-foot project was suggested from the
mouth of the illamette River to Van
couver. Colonel Zinn was absent at t!y

ROOSEVELT RECORD OUT
Cattle Rustlers of Montana Rapped
by Colonel SO Years Ago.
HELENA, Mont., Oct. IS. Thirty
years ago cattle rustlers were the ob
ject of attack by Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt, according to an old minute
book of tho Montana Stock Growers'
Association. which recently was
brought here. The entry of Colonel
Roosevelt's cattle brand, filed In 1685.
also has been found in te office of
the recorder of marks and brands here.
The -Roosevelt brand was an elk horn
on the right rib of cattle and the left
shoulder of horses. Although his herd
was in Dakota, it was near the state
line, and he took a promfnent part in
activities of the Montana stockmen's
association.
He made many speeches against the
activities of cattle thieves, according
to the records of the organization, and
on one occasion was strong In de
nouncing a resolution in opposition to
the interstate commerce law.
The Easiest Way
to End Dandruff
I take Liberty Bonds at Par
There Is one sure way that ivever
fails to .remove Dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This destroys
It entirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retiring;
use enough to xnoisten the scalp and
rub It In gently with the finger tips.
By morning most, if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications, will completely
dissolve .and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how mtch dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop ln
star'ly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and fel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid-arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive, and four ounces
is all you will need. This simple i-emedy
has never been known to faiL-r-yVdv.
