THE RICHMOND PLANET Virginia State Library. THAT PASS SCANDAL. GRAND JURY MEETS MONDAY, Oct. 1 VOLUME XLV, NO. 47 THAT GRAND J Many Colo eral Statut (Special by John Mitchell, Jr.) The pass scandal involving as it does numbers of colored people in this city in particular and the State in general, has been the topic of conversation practically everywhere here. The failure to give the names of persons who are to be arrested, or who either had in their possession at some time one of these passes, has led to a general whispering cam paign, in which the names of many persons hereabouts have been connected. Alfred Chapman, chief of the pass bureau of the Chesapeake and Ohio railway is still in jail, being unable or unwilling to furnish the $5,000,000 bond under which he he's being held. CONSPIRACY CHARGED. It is alleged that through one or more preachers he distributed these passes and received money for them at much less than the railroad rate of travel. The opportunity came when the Grand Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. of W. and the B. M. C. of Odd Fellows met at Chicago recently. The round trip fare was about $45.72 and these tickets are alleged to have been sold for $15.00 and $20.00, while annual passes were furnished at $3.00 each. The collusion between the agent for the C. ound O. R. R. and certain outside persons enabled the scheme to be put over, until the large number of passengers arrived at Gordonsville. EXTRA COACH NEEDED. The regular train on its way West from Washington was unable to accommodate this heavy influx of passengers and the conductor arranged for an extra coach to go westward. The same conductor was astounded when he found only five regular tickets among the passengers, the remainder being passes issued by Alfred Chapman and his associates at $15.00 and $20.00 each and for which no money had been paid over to the railroad company. An investigation followed. It is alleged that an air-mail letter was sent to Chiug warning the persons, who held these passes. SCENTED DANGER Some of them scented danger and purchased return tickets. A visit to the Assistant United States District Attorney's office and an interview with that able official, Callom B. Jones, who occupies that position, disclosed the fact that they have on file all of the tickets or passes which were used in this transaction, together with the names of the persons who signed them. Many of them signed the passes as Revereed, that is as preachers, although they were not preachers. These people will be summoned to court and a grand jury will be asked to indict them under certain statutes when it is convened October 1 THE LAW VIOLATED. They are Section 37 and Section 215 of the Penal Code. The former deals with conspiracy to defraud and the latter refers to the use of the mail to defraud. In the matter of conspiracy the punishment is a fine of not more than $10,000 and imprisonment for not more than two years. In using the mails to defraud the punishment is a fine of not more than $1,000.00 and imprisonment for not more than five years. Under the transportation act, 49th Section, the punishment is not less than $100.00 or more than $2,000.00. Only ministers of the gospel or charity purposes, employees and direct members of their families, and elecmosnyary institutions are permitted to have use of them. (Norfolk Journal and Guide) NORFOLK, VA., Sept. 22—Rev. T. D. Lee, who was arrested Saturday and released under bond for his appearance before the grand jury in the United States District Court in Richmond in October, in connection with the probe of Federal agents of alleged wholesale issuance of rail- road passes, denied Thursday morn- ing in an interview with a Journal and Guide reporter, that he had any connection or correspondence with Alfred Chapman, white, former head of the C. and O. pass bureau, and declared that he procured all the passes from Rev. J. S. Hatcher, of Roanoke, Va., in perfectly good faith. His sworn statement to the au- thorities, a copy of which he showed to the reporter, follows: Q. How did you come in possession of the information that there was free transportation to the Elks convenient in Chicago? A. I was at a meeting at Hampton Va. and got my information from the Rev. J. S. Hatcher, colored. of Roanoke, Va. and on my return home I sent him $15.00 for which he sent me a pass in favor of Rev. T. D. Lee, Minister of Religion, not good on sleeping and parlor cars, reading Norfolk, Va. to Chicago, Ill. and return, July 6th, 1928, expires October 31st, 1928. I could not see anything wrong with this pass then for I used it with my wife making the trip to Chicago and return. I spoke to several of my friends about the lower rate to Chicago, they asked me to get them one if I could. Later on I wrote to Rev. J. S. Hatcher on several occasions, each time sending him $15.00 for each pass, giving him the man or woman's name that wanted the pass. At no time did I request one of those passes to be issued in a man's name as a Minister of Religion. The first man that I received one of those passes for was for my brother, J. S. Lee, of Newport News. I noticed that this pass was issued for the Rev. J. S. Lee. I did not request it to be issued in this way. I sent the Rev. J. S. Hatcher $15.00 for this pass, which my brother gave me. I received several other passes from the Rev. J. S. Hatcher for which I sent him $15.00 each. To the best of my knowledge, I got one for each of the following: Bertha Holt, Georgia Brewer, Mable Lee, Grace Cornicks, Elizabeth Lowry, Laura Carter, Edgar Clark, H. T. Clark, P. J. Brown. Q. Is Brown a minister? A. No, sir. I think he is an insurance man. Q. Are the two Clarks ministers? Did you get a pass for H. T. Clark and Edgar Clark? A. Yes I did for H. T. Clark and Edgar Clark of Newport News, Va. and neither are ministers of religion Q. Rev. Lee, in making requests for these passes to the Rev. J. S. Hatcher, did you always give the name of the pary that wanted the pass and did the pass come made out of that name? A. Yes sir. In one case I got a pass for P. J. Brown of Norfolk Va. and the pass came in the name of the Rev. P. J. Brown minister of religion. I returned this pass to the Rev. J. S. Hatcher for correction and the Rev. J. S. Hatcher malled the pass back to Brown. Q. What is the Rev. J. S. Hatcher's address in Roanoke, Va? A. James S. Hatcher, 51 Gilmer Avenue, N. E., Roanoke, Va., Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church. Q. I have given you the names of several other passes that were rode out of Norfolk. Va. to Chicago, do you remember if these passes were gotten for these people? A. I have given you the names of those that I am positive of getting passes for, there might be some others that I do not recall. Q. You state that you had no idea that there was anything wrong with those passes? A. I examined each one carefully and each appeared to be right, as I received each of them from Rev. J. S. Hatcher, who is a minister of religion and I did not think he would give them to me if they were wrong. If I had thought they were wrong. I would not have made a trip with my wife. Signed, Rev. T. D. LEE Witnesses: H. E. Bridges W. H. McKeen RICHMOND ,VIRGIN1A, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1928. LOCAL CHURCHES WILL LIFT COLLECTION ON SUNDAY.

DEATH OF MR. ROBERT T. CHILES Mr. Robert T. Chiles, of King William County, Va., died at his residence August 24, 1928 at 6 o'clock A. M. He had been sick since March, having undergone an operation at that time, from which he never recovered. The funeral services were held at Mangochik Baptist Church, Monday, August 27, 1928, at 2 o'clock P. M. Rev. W. H. Ford, the pastor, delivered the funeral eulogy, in a most pathetic manner. Mr. Chiles had been a member of the church for twenty-seven years, and the resolution from the church attested to his worth as a citizen and Christian gentleman. He was widely known, and the funeral was the largest ever attended in this section. He is survived by his widow, four daughters, one son, seven sisters and three brothers. The funeral arrangements were in charge of Undertakers J. E. Johnson & Co. of Ashland, Va. They rendered admirable and efficient services to the satisfaction of the vast assemblage.

He can be set up and he can be knocked down with impunity, and with blatant fury. Courage is indeed a wonderful thing, but it is not courage but cowardice when one seeks to launch an attack against a man of straw instead of against the foeman with whom one would rather not have controversy, and from whom one prefers to flee in fear and trembling.

Publisher of the Pittsburgh Courier and Chairman of the Publicity Committee, Colored Voters' Division, Republican National Committee, informed mutual friends of Mr. Church before his article appeared that he (Mr. Vann), not only wrote but took full responsibility for the article which appeared in The Courier, describing Mr. Church's acrobatic activities during the campaign years 1920, 1924 and 1928. Mr. Church's Courage "If it pleases Mr. Church to throw his shining lance in my direction instead of in the direction of the man who knew of, and described his acrobatic activities during the campaign years referred to, and who has exposed them to the mirthful gaze of the public, I am well content with the exhibition he makes of his 'courage' and his self-sufficiency. PRICE, FIVE CENTS. FATALLY NICHOLAS the Heart the Quarters Virginia Tucker, age 20 years, was in the Police Court Monday, September 24, charged with the murder of Martha Nicholas. The weapon used was a pocket knife. Coroner James M. Whitfield stated that one wound was in the left side. It did not enter the chest. The other wound was in front between the fourth and fifth ribs in front and the blade went to the heart. No definite information has been given as to the cause of the row, but it is intimated that there is "a man in the case." Attorney Leith S. Bremner represents Virginia Tucker. Coroner Whitfield held an inquest Thursday morning at 9:30 o'clock. The following are the statements: Herman Fitzgerald. 900 S. Lombardy St. "Martha Nicholas is my sister. She was cut the last gone Saturday night by Virginia Tucker. Martha was upstairs at 602 S. Allen Avenue when she was cut. Virginia cut Martha with a pocket knife. I do not know where she got the knife. She had it in her hand when I saw it. I do not know the reason she cut her. They were quarrelling. Martha had no weapon or any kind. I was asleep and their fusing woke me up. I took place late Saturday night about 12:30. When Virginia stabbed Martha, they were both standing up facing each other. I saw Virginia cut her or hit at her three times. After she cut Martha. Virginia walked out. I do not know what she did with the knife. Nance Lewis. Louis Nicholas and Bette Fitzgerald were there. Martha was laid across the bed after the cutting. Colled un ambulance and tried to get Dr. Jackson. Martha was taken in a private automobile to St. Phillips Hospital." Bettie Fitzgerald. 900 B. S. Lomhardy St. said: "I was in the room when Virginia Tucker cut. Martha Nicholas and I saw her do it. She cut her with a knife. I do not know what they were quarreling about. They woke me up by their fighting. I stood up in the bed. I did not see her cut her but once and that was right here (She pointed to her breast) and Martha tell across the bed. Martha was cut when she was standing by the window. She did not have any weapon." Attorney Bramer stated to us that Martha Nicholas cut Virginia Tucker and the wounds on her body will show it. This means of curbing a plea of self-defense. L. Vann rship R. Church's "Mr. Church says he is trying to help Mr. Hoover's cause and that of the Republican Party. His actions, however, suggest that he is laboring under hallucinations of super personal grandeur and self-exaltation in his all-too-apparent attempt to destroy party harmony. He cannot demonstrate his loyalty to the Republican Party or to Mr. Hoover, however, by seeking to destroy the influence of John R. Hawkins and those who have been designated by Dr. Work. Chairman of the Republican National Committee, to represent him in the management of the Colored Voters' Division. "For myself, I can only say: I did not contribute in any way whatsoever a single line, a single sentence, a single paragraph, or a single suggestion to the article Mr. Robert R. Church, of Memphis, Tennessee, says he is 'informed' I wrote, and which he knows I did not write." THE HONORABLE LEMUEL STEALIN A NOOZE, EH? THINKS HE'S IN CHURCH AS IT WERE!

I do not suppose there is one family among my readers unable to confess to some sort of black sheep; some boy or girl that persists in going wrong in spite of everything. Much is said of preachers' sons who turn out badly and the implication is that they have been treated too strictly in their youth, so that in later years they rebel. Some say that children should be carefully disciplined and rigidly instructed, but such children have not always done so well in later years. In fact I have known the children of utterly loose and careless parents to turn out to be strict models of propriety, and others who have had every advantage of favorable environment go swiftly to the dogs. Some say that children should be given their freedom and allowed to do as they please, but that does not always work. You may talk about your heredity and about a child inheriting the bad traits of his grand uncle and about environment and about the whole trouble with children being that they are not properly disciplined. All this is very interesting reading. But the fact remains that the irresponsible and wayward sheep is in almost every family of my acquaintance. Not long ago a prominent banker showed me a letter he had from his son, telling him that if he did not receive some money immediately he would commit suicide. The reply of the banker may not have been judicious, but it was interesting. He said to his son, "I have no money to send you, but don't let that deter you." MT. TABOR BAPTIST CHURCH.

Bald The Farmer, "Sam, I see where the Federal Reserve Bank has lifted the discount rate to eight percent and I guess the Wall Street banks won't suffer any, but there doesn't seem to be anything to take which does no a bit of good." If You Wish Perfect Cup of Tea, Follow This Recipe DANTILLY SERVED TEA IS CHARMING DETAIL OF SOCIAL FUNCTIONS ONE TEASPOONFUL TO EACH CUP. BALTIMORE, MD.—Can you make BALTIMORE, MD.—Can you make a cup of tea correctly? Probably not. Not one American housewife in a hundred can. Fifty million people in the United States drink tea and, though it is as easy to make good tea as bad tea, comparatively few know what perfectly made tea tastes like. Here is the recipe for brewing the perfect cup of tea as given in a bulletin issued by the Tea Club of the United States, an organization of authentic commonsurprise and comprising the leading tea merchants of the nation. 1. Allow one teaspoonful of tea for every cup. 2. Rinse 'teapot with boiling water 3. Place the tea leaves in an earthenware strainer in an earthenware pot. 4. Pour freshly boiled water over the tea leaves immediately. 5. Let the tea steep from three to five minutes according to strength desired. 6. Remove strainer with tea grounds, and the tea is ready to serve. "One teaspoonful to a cup is standard," says the author. "Do not reduce the amount of tea wish to decrease the strength of the tea." duce the time of infusion to three minutes or less. "Many housewives make the mistake of using water from the hot water faucet. Water that has simmered or boiled for any length of time is fatal to good tea. An earth-ware pot is essential. Metal pots set up a chemical change in the tea, which is ruinous to its taste. "Making tea," the bulletin adds, "is a matter of detail. Follow the recipe and you will brew as desired tea as ever delighted an opacure. Change single detail and you will make the flavor of perfection.

If your mirror gives back a reflection of hollow cheeks and protruding cheek bones in spite of your "Eat and Grow Fat" diet, don't allow your face to grow any longer with disappointment. These boudier hints will add twelve pounds to a thin woman's looks: First, there is the matter of color, and this applies to cosmetics as well as clothes. Affect "blood colors," tones of rose, pink, brown, violet, and the like which contain a lot of red. Select powders and rouges with a good deal of pink in them. Powders that are basically white and rouges with yellow foundations are trying even to healthy, robust women. Then, with regard to make-up. Thin-faced women should use two day-time powders: a darker one for the upper part of their face, a lighter one for the lower part of their face and neck. Two-toning the skin this way minimizes the hollows. Her jouce—and because of the necessity of a super-blending kind, I specially recommend paste rouges—should describe an equilateral triangle, the top of the triangle following her cheek bone from about three-quarters of an inch from her nose to an inch side of her ear. Her lipstick shade should be with her mouth. She should shadow her eyelids with broad sweeps of brown or blue eyepaste, and macarra the lashes to the corners of her eyes. A hollow-schewed woman should arrange her hair over her forehead to make a perfect circle out of her other long oval face. She should also curl her locks about her cheeks, either earlly curled or straight, Subscribe to W. A.

As a result of the exacting laboratory rain tests, Montgomery Ward & Co. has come to specify seams in all weather-proof garments. The chipping tests on china and enamel are among the most rigorous. Plates are placed on a machine and a steel weight dropped against them to determine the number of foot pounds required to break them. To pess the cracking test, a piece of Haviland, or any fine china, must stand a fifteen-minute baking in an oven heated to 450 degrees Fahrenheit, followed by a plunge into ice water. Equipment in the laboratory includes hundreds of machines, electrical equipment, and a full-equipped chemical apparatus. Individual problems of testing so many thousands of items have necessitated the invention of dosens of new devices, according to Dr. Ellery H. Harvey, who is director of the laboratory.

How much rain will an umbrella stand, how many miles will a fountain pen run, and how much difference is there between a blow that will break a plate and one that will merely chip it? These are just a few of the 35,000 problems which are solved by chemists, engineers, and textile analysts in one of the world's most complete laboratories, maintained by gomery Ward & Co., to establish minimum specifications for every article bought and sold by the original mail-order house, and to maintain exact uniformity.

Davis, of Cloveland, Ohio to the Executive Committee of the Colored Voters Division of the Republican National Committee, if his record is to be considered as an asset. Brought down to the final equa- tion, the fight now raging in Repub: lican colored circles ig but a contest to displace the old, experienced col- ored leaders, who have for nearly & quarter of a century Kept the colord Republicans in their respective States for the Republican Party. ‘An effort was made by Col. Theodore Roosevelt, under the leadership and advice of Dr. Booker T. Washington to do the sam thing and it ended in disastrous failure. As a result, col- ored men were practically eliminat- ed as representative office-holding factors. There is a repetition of this in the organization of this Colored Yoters Division of the Republican National Committee. We are gratified to read the de- nial of Hon. Emmett J. Scott that ho wrote the article attacking Hon. Robert R. Church, of Tennessee. We take it that this will settle the matter, for we could mot concalve how a public man of Mr. Scott's learning, ability and reputation for fa'y deal'ug could do such a thing. We presume that Mr. Church will not pursue the matter further un- eas ho has stronger evidence against Mr, Scott than that cited in his first publication. 4 We can now get down to the issue in the prentises. By failing to reply to the statement that he and his colleague, Hon. John R. Hawkins are non-voters, we presume that this point is well taken, I: was a serious oversight in accepting these appoint- ments to the exclusion of real voters. Robert L. Vann, except for his fiery disposition and lack of self: control might have been a gocd selection in this respect. He does not “carry water on but fone shoulder” and you can always find out just where he stands up2n any question. Whatever injury there Ys hag been done and it has been Practically decided that there shall he no change of leadership in the face of the enemy. So, “there ye aire.” DR. DUROIS' CONCLUSIONS. Dr. W. E. B. DuBois. under the capvion, “The Possibility of Demo: eracy in America” deals in the October number of the New York Crisis with the political situation, wth the disfranchisement of Negroes in this country, and the distran- chisement of the white people as well, He SAYS: s.csee ay, #8 Shem For several years after the World War I used to talk concerning the results of the War, and to say that notwithstanding the slaughter and the upheaval that always _accom- pany war we were going to have in the world an extension of democracy as a result of the fighting; that the democracy which formerly had ruled in restricted fields—in the election of officials, in the so-called political world—we were going to see extend- ed into industry, so that in regard to work and wages and income, we were going to have democratic control. But I write today to apologize and change my thesis. I was wrong in ‘what I was predicting. I see today without any doubt that instead of the great question of democracy be- ing an extension of democratic con- trol into further territory, the prob- Tem that faces us in America and faces the world is the question as to whether we can: keep.the territory which we thought democracy had al- ready conquered; that, as a matter of fact, in every single culture coun- try there is today a fight to retain democracy, and that reaction and oligarchy are beginning to hold up their heads in the world and to triumph. Moreover, here in the United States, here’ where we have essayed the greatest experiment in democracy, we have perhaps the ‘The above is the gospel. It is a8 true as Hoiy Writ. And again: In the September Crisis I showed how, where and why American Ne- groes were not free to vote. But how bout white Americans? Are they disfranchised? ‘And still again: First, in the Southern States it encourages oligarchy. Secondly, it enables cliques to nullify, not simply the 14th and 15th Amendments, but the 19th Amendment, giving the right vote to women. And finally, it entirely vitiates the normal distribu- jon of voting power throughout the ration and makes a third party im- possible.

MANCHURIA—These are bonanza days in Manchuria. Even times in the California and Texas gold or the opening up of Oklahoma territory are recalled by Chinese immigrants by the hundreds of thousands from the war-torn provinces of Shantung and Chihli attracted by prospects of peace and millions of acres of rich land and rice, for farming, are streaming into this "garden of China," eager to make new homes for themselves. The yellow hordes are arriving at Dairen at the rate of 2,000 a day, while more than 1,000,000 will have migrated to this land of opportunity before the year is out. Japan has made this possible by transplanting western civilization in the fertile valleys of what is known as the three eastern provinces of China where, between the Liuzhou peninsula and the up-to-date railroad town of Changchun lie some 600 miles of steel rails and a narrow railroad zone protected by Japanese troops and developed by Japanese capital until it has become the most peaceful and progressive region of the Par East. In the wake of the South Manchuria railroad owned and operated by Japan, have come modern mid-to-order cities with paved streets electric lights, parks playgrounds, public schools, hotels both public and private, and impressive rows of commercial buildings. Dawn only a few years ago a malodorous native fishing village its its attached bus strangling over the mud that is today a metropolis of 200,000 one of the world's crossroads and perhaps the Paris of the City. While the population of Moncheurus has more than doubled in recent 20,000,000 within the last twenty years, that of the railroad zone has multiplied nearly fifteen-times.

Western Canada's status as a ranching country has assumed vastly added importance recently as the result of an unprecedented demand for Canadian beef according to a report of the Department of Colonization and Development of the Canadian Pacific railway, made public here. Cattle are moving to the United States at prices which are recurring. Domains producers the greatest profits in the report states and the prospect is the continuance of this demand. Also in production by farmers the Canada Department of Agriculture has just established a new range experimental station in the vicinity of Mayberrys Alberta, where forty-two projects covering the problems or runners are being studied as quickly as possible and is still pleasant in the --- ALBION BRIDGE DAIGEN rather as a civilizing agency than as a train station system, has invested some $100,000,000 in American equipment, has developed collieries and iron works and has introduced western agricultural methods into the content land of the Manchus. Contributing to the prosperity of the country is not only the infusion of settlers but the success efforts on the part of the Japanese scientists to increase the yield of field and focks and otherwise to enhance the value of Manchuria's mineral resources. A new metal has been found of含量 from the metal from low-grade soils of the Anshun iron works, with the result that this year's sales will be cut down by $2,000,000. At the Palustin lumber even greater reserves are looked for in the recent discovery of new distillation process of ex-solving crude oil from the millions of tons of solid waste.

South of the main line of the Canadian Pacific railway alone there are more than 5,000,000 acres of leased range land, where giant herds of norses, cattle and sheep roam the prairies. There be another million acres or so of leased land along the railway belt of British Columbia. But vast regions of salt marshes,anching land still remain in the Canadian Columbia and in Alberta and it is here that new leases are being up. Canada exported 282,021 head of cattle valued at $13,377,005 last year. The report states. It might have exported more but the Dominion uses 25 per cent of its maritable cattle in this connection. It is pointed out, that Canada is one half ounce more of beef cattle per capita, the pounds have used up more than the pounds representable in pounds of beef. --- THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA the shadow of the imperial tomb thus creating almost overnight a new and immensely important industry. At the agricultural experiment station at Kungchuling, new uses have been developed for the soya bean, the base of more than a score of material ranging from milk and breakfast food to paint and varnish. soap and high explosives. The civilization introduced by the Japanese is more modern even than anything to be found in Tokyo or Yokohama, but Japan has had a clean canvas on which to work and has been unhampered by war or politics the enterprise being administered by a highly centralized bureaucracy made up of the best business brains in the empire. Some observers propose to see in Manchuria a vision of the Japanese. More than 30,000,000 acres already under cultivation in the fertile AMERICAN BUSINESS GROWS LABOR SAYS 50-50 OVER THE SAHARA SAND WHAT MAN CAN DO That is sensible. Labor, race and religion should be kept out of politics. Besides, organized labor cannot deliver its men, and does not help itself by a declaration with no result. Mr. Green, head of the federation, is a wise American. Miss Katherine Locke, of Youngstown, Ohio, travelled miles and miles over the sand of Sahara thinking the sun would bring back her voice that she lost. IT DID. She visited the Glouf of Marakesh, if you know who he is, in a dwelling 3,000 years old in the Atlas Mountains. The Glouf probably knows as little about us as we know about him. More interesting to many Americans, Miss Locke saw at Timbuktu, pens where American slavers once bought slaves from native chiefs. Young men, playing jazz music in night clubs now, would be amazed to see these pens where their ancestors once stopped on the way to America. They would bless the slave traders that brought the ancestors here. We never know what is for our good. John Henry Mears and Charles B. D.

And, in years to come, it will be done in twenty-four hours. Man is a very able creature, a real credit to his Maker. What he can IMAGINE, he 'can DO. Ellen Terry after eighty years of happy, successful life, told her friends they must not put on mourning, but wear gay colors, and rejoice in her long life, with rest at the end. She was a sensible woman, but mourning is more than honor paid to the dead. It affords relief to those that survive. The widow of India, if permitted, would be burned alive with her husband's body. Savage widows cut and other-wise mutilate themselves to express grief. To many civilized women, a long black veil makes sorrow easier to bear. Mr. Hoover, kindly, but firmly, says "I shall kiss no baby for publication." That is wise, and kind to the babies. No intelligent mother allows ANYBODY to kiss her baby. All adults carry in their mouths disease germs, harmless to the carriers, but dangerous to an infant in whom the protecting white corpuscles are undeveloped. Mr. Hoover did, however, hold the baby while its older brother took a photograph. He liked babies.

Their crops this year will provide more than 40 per cent of Manchuria's exports. With Japan's population increasing at the rate of 700,000 a year with emigration to the United States, Canada and Australia, it would oirland hurston --- PALACE COLORADO LASS WINS HIGH HONORS AT RODEO MISS JOSEPHINE WICKES be imagined that Manchuria, if a land of promise for the Chinese, would be equally attractive to the colonist from Japan. But while inducements have been made to Japanese settlers, experiments in colonization have met with scant success. The stolid Chinese farmer is content with little. He is essentially a pionder, and he accepts gratefully what the country has to offer. After having lived on grass and roots in China, he is being robbed alternately by the tax collector and the bandit, a field of rice or soy beans suggests full dinner pails to him. The Japanese is more fastidious. He is frugal, according to western standards of living, but not frugal enough, nor is he content to wait for ripening crops, but demands immediate returns. He requires also daily hot bath and schools for his children, institutions available in the railroad zone, but hardly to be had elsewhere in Manchuria. Moreover, he finds the climate and the that monotonous landscapes of Manchuria anything but to his liking. For reasons the South Manchuria railroad has encouraged Chinese immigration, relying on the industry and COLORADO LASS HIGH H As a result of broncho rieging on the Western plains since early childhood, Miss Josephine Wickes, Colo.

The loving cup was donated by montgomery Ward & Co., the original hall-order house, which long has been actively interested in recognizing and encouraging the athletic powers of America's youth.

The newcomers, however seem to be readily adapting themselves to western invasions. They have learned how to improve their breeds of sheep and cattle; how to rotate their crops and how to enrich the soil. Steam electric power and gasoline-driven machinery are supplanted the native ox-cart, the windmill and the primitive water wheel. What Japan has accomplished in a historical way in Manchuria seems about a miracle, and the American tourist from the observation platform of the Dairen express finds difficulty in reconciling preconceived impressions of the Orient with factory chimneys, electric trams, power houses, tractors, cranes, and steam shovels all in the same picture with crumbling mud walls, thousand-year-old lamaseries and shrines. Here if anywhere, East and West meet. These contrasts have been made possible to a great extent through Japan's success in freeing Manchuria from civil war. China, too deeply sunk in her own civil wars to get any perspective, has been locked with longing eyes on Japan's achievement, and now that she has been putting her house in order, has been seeking, despite treaty reservations, to duplicate Japan's success in Manchuria. What is regarded by Japan as a serious menace to her program is the tendency on the part of the Chinese to ignore treaties, and in violation of the terms thereof to construct times paralleling the Japanese railroad. Several of these competing railways already have been started, but Japan's protest, weak at first, is being firmer, because if the violation of the treaties is connived at it, establish dangerous precedents, and naturally Japan will insist on her rights. SS WINS HONORS AT RODEO MISS JOSEPHINE WICKES teen firsts out of a total possible eighteen and by piling up a nugel majority of points over her nearest opponent. The races were held every afternoon and evening of the Rodeo, a first prize of $100 being awarded the winner of each heat and a grand prize of $300 going to the girl having the largest total of points at the end of the meet. Although trained on the plains and capable of riding with the best of the pack, Wick does deserve only her Summer months to bronch riding. In the Fall, she packs her saddle away and spends her time at Colorado College in Colorado Springs. She will resume her studies this Fall as a junior in that school. ```markdown ``` THE RICHMOND PLANET.
