REJECTION OF RACIAL
AMENDMENT CUTS DEEP
Tckio Journal Says Principles
Of Humanity Underlying
Proposed Covenant Mere
Falsehood.
ToUio, April LI. (United Tress.)
Declaring Japan should secede from the
league of nations and that the princi
ples of humanity underlying the league
are falsehoods, the Japanese press to
day with striking unanimity attacked
rent Britain and demanded a Monroe
ilnelritie for tho Orient.
liciitinn of news from Pnris tliat the
league of nations had rejected the
Japanese amendment providing for the
principle 01 e()tiunty of nations.
All the leading papers nppeared to
day with strong editorials regarding the
rejection of the Japanese amendment.
The Ifuelii Shimlmn abuses trie dele
gates to the peace conference and dc
dares the Japanese empire should take
tins opportunity to secede from the
league.
Discrimination Charged
The acceptance of the American Mon
roe doctrine and the rejection of the
Japanese plea, says the Hociii, "shows
that the principle's of justice and hu
inanity underlying the league arc mere
tnlselioods.
Ilochi blames the British delegates
for not placating Premier Hughes of
Australia. " the real sentiments of the
British ore pun- apparent," it adds.
Nichi Nichi insists that since the
commission recognized the American
Monroe doctrine, Japan can proporli
ilciiinnd a Monroe doctrine for trie Oil
eat.
Vaiualo Shimlmn fears for the Angle
Japanese alliance, "when the vote of
Hughes is so much stronger than the
votes of Saionji and Makiuo." Yuma
to refers to the rpiestion of closing Jap
anese schools in Hawaii.
"What if the authorities or.-vred the
closing of American schools here!"' it
asks.
Amendment ft Mistake.
Vomiuri Shiinhun admits Japan con
tributcd little to the winning of the
war, and declares it was a fundamental
mistake to raise the great question of
racial equality. It calls upon the peo
ple, however, to awake and "attend to
the solidification of the nntion's
strength, and t6 determine not to flinch
in staking the state's fate ngnlnst a
great foe."
tFoch Declares Huns Will
Start War Again Within
50 Years If Given Chance
London, April 1(t. Marshal
Koch, in an interview with
Ward Price Paris correspond
ent of the Ihiily Mail, predicted
that fifty yei'.rs hence the (iir
insns, if givon the opportunity,
will make another assault on
Francs and (treat Ilritain.
"Now that we have reached
the Khine, we must stay there."
Foch was quoted as saying. ''It
is our only safety. We must
have it as a barrier and we must
double-lock the door.
"Remember those 70 000,000
Germans will always be n men
ace to us. They are a people
both envious and warlike. Their
natural characteristic have
not been changed by the events
of the last four years. Fifty
years hence they will 1 what
they are today. The next time,
the Germans will make no mis
take. They will break through
northern France and seiz, the
channel ports as a base of oper
ations against England."
OLCOTT GOVERNOR ONLY
WHILE SECRETARY SAYS
ATTORNEY OF PORTLAND
A brief in the cuso of Oleott vs. Hoff
regnrdirg the itutus of the question us
to whether the governor can resign the
office of secretary of state, lias just
been submitted by Frank S. Grant of
Portlaml, in which he deals tit length
with nil phases of the question. On one
point he is very specific that so long
as the governor retains in his own per
sonality the functions of secretary of
stute he must continue to perform the
duties of governor. But when his term
of office as secretary of state expires,
and no new governor is elected, the
duties of governor devolve upon the
.i ,. i . ii . i. .i.i.. i L.t
his own successor as secretary or stute.
The moment he resigns as secretary of
state he also resigns us governor, und
the president of the senate must assume
his duties, including the duty or ap
pointing a secretary of state. Owing
to the fact thut the terms of governor
mil secretary of state expire at the
next general election, a new governor
must be elected, since the constitution
piovide that the secretary ot suite
shall hold office until the new governor
is elected. The writer also holds that
the incumbent is legally entitled to both
the salnrv of governor nod secretary of
stute, which does not constitute double
onipeusution within the inclining of the
inw.
CLAIMS OF JAPANESE

Italian Situation Still Undecid
ed And Critical Is
Belief.
By Fred S. Ferguson j
(Unihtd Press Staff Correspondent.)
Paris, April 19. With the Ilaliun sit
uation still in a critical stage so far
as available information is concerned
the "big four" wns expected to be con
fronted today with the additional pro
blem of adjusting Japan's territorial
i. .;... :., el,;,,.,
Premier Orbndo was ihedulcd tol
present a demand for immediate ae-
eeptance of the nnuexation program
granted Italy under the pact of London,
at yesterday's session of the "big
lour. In
believed he would threaten to wreck the
entire peace settlement by refusing to
sign the treaty and holding -tho other
powers to their agreement not to makej
a separate peace, unless Italy s aspira
tions were recognized. What transpired
in the meeting remained a mystery, as
the entire proceeding was surrounded
with the deepest secrecy. From cer
tain unofficial sources, it was learned
the Italian rpiestion was coimuuiu un
til today. This could not be confirmed.
The Japanese are seeking, principally,
ratification of their concessions in the
Shantung, peninsula and retention of
Kiao I'linu, which thev seized from the
florin r.-ug.
The Chinese are bitterly opposed to
Japan's claims and it is understood the
minority of the peace delegtes arc in
clined to favor the Chinese.

BANKS UNDERWRITING QUOTA, BUT
CITIZENS CALLED ON FOR SUPPORT
Popular Subscriptions Will
Be Made Through Banks
Instead of Campaign
By J. F. Hutchason -
As chairman of the publicity committee for the Vic
tory Liberty Loan in Salem, I wish to call to your mind
a number of things which must be borne in mind. I hope
you will read and think carefully of every word in this
article.
The four banks of Salem have sub- over so easy. Do your duty and then
scribed or guaranteed the sale of the
tui quota for the city. As far as wo can
learn Salem (that sleepy, mossbnek
town, erstwhile known as the capital
city) was the first city in the L'nited
States to go over the top in this Victory
loan.
" What This Means.
It means that business will go ou un
interrupted. Thut the business men will
not have to make a canvass and spend
weurv days away from business in order
to induce the people of (Salem to buy
bonds. Thut there is great prosperity
in our city which has enabled the bt.nks
to underw rite this loan that the people
have ulreadv saved the money and have
it on deposit in the banks where every
dollar thai is "t working should be , 'thank tho mn oil my committee and
kept so that it will help the. eomuiun-1 for t1( committee I wish to thank the

Give Banks Credit.
The banks of Salem have rendered
this city a service that cannot bo valued
in dollars and cents. Every business
man in Salem hivs been saved times andjunleni cun well bo proud and thankful

It shows thut
Salem banks are run by real bankers.
Men who would be a credit to a cily

Duty Yet to Perform.

bonds, he telephoned the paiier to can

Attitude of Banks.
The banks will take your snasenption

If you bear anyone make the remnrk
that flie banks "hogged the bonds" you
can tell Inm that they aiu noinmg of I
the kind. The hanks simply guaranteed
the sale of the bonds and that he is ot
liberty to buy all the bonds he wants.

he will show it sooner or later. If vou

break open because the issus was past
erow.
Word About Advertising.
The advertising committee worked
Hard and faithfully. The chairman was
on the job practically all the week and
wus ably assisted by the other members
of the committee. Every inch of ad
vertising secured and used was needed.
It enabled tho committee to get this
bond issue before the people in the
right manner and had there been a so
liciting campaign it would ouly huvc

would have understood all about the
