"This Is not the time of our old

folks know what he was doing and
how fast he was doing it.
"President Harding reminds me of
the man who was made boss of the

wns a mnn that nobody hud over no
Heed. Ho worked at his Job. He did

genius for stabilizing things. When
I have sought to point out that there
Is a campaign of 1924 coming and
tnat advertising for the adminlstra

me that he Is not a showman, not
a stage director. Ho holds that to

TOKIO, April 1. (By Associated
Press). The recent announcement of
the intention of the governments of
Japan and the Utited States to cancel
the Lnnsing-Ishil agreement recogniz
ing Japan's "special interests in
China" is not treated as sensational
news by the Japanese press, except
for the papers that use the decision to
attack the Japanese administration.
, The Asahi Bays that while the can
cellation was Inevitable, it has come
at a bad time as it might encourage
China to persist In her demand for the
abrogation of the SIno-Japanese trouty
ui iviu, i no iviiugui aiso iears mat
the cancellation will aggravate rela

Blankening skies followed bv a vio
lent hall storm at 2 o'clock this af
ternoon proved a novel experience to
natives of the Rogue River valley.
Especially novol ,,was the thunder
which accompanied the hall storm.
Bright flashes of lightning filled the
sky and the crackle of thunder, al
though not violent, was loud enough
to ue Heard distinctly.
- The hail, falling In particles about
throe-sixteenths of an inch in diame
ter, lasted for approximately six min
utes, but during this short period of
time covered the ground.
l-ollowing the hall a rain set In
slill accompanied by mild lightning
and thunder.
It Is not thought that the hall dam
aged the fruit in the valley to any
consinerauie extent as the pear and
apple blossoms have not yot matured
fully enough to have been materially
affected. Almonds, cherries nnd
peaches of the early variety may have
been injured by the hail.
