JAPAN WANTS U. S. AS FRIEND. ADMIRAL SAYS No War, ‘Ever,’ If America Is Willing to Come Half Way, He Asserts. By ME A Scruice NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 20. Japan likes Americans and wants to be friends, and if this nation will meet Japan half-way, no one ever need worry about that “war in the Pacific" that agitates so many statesmen and generals. * This is on the word of Rear Admiral Osami Nagano of the imperial Japanese navy, who is in New Orleans in command of the Japanese training cruisers Asama and Iwate, touring the world with a party of naval cadets. The admiral speaks excellent English; he spent five years in America. as student at Harvard and naval attache to the Japanese embassy in Washington. * Japan Has Problems “Japan's problems?” he repeated In answer to a question. “Japan has them. We are ?, nation ol more than 70,000,000 souls on an island which in size may be compared to your State of California. “And our population is increasing rapidly. Japan must expand. The •auic urge and necessity that drove the British out from their small islands across the world are Impelling Japan today. “We are trying to meet this in many ways. Thousands of Japanese are in Korea. Thousands more have gone to Brazil; more thousands have gone to Mexico and Central America. But that does not solve our problem. Developing Industries "So we are developing industrial life in Japan. We are building inch trial centers to provide work for thousands of men making all sorts of things. “We want to make Japan a great Importer ol raw materials that Japanese workers can make into finished products. Already we are doing that—from New Orleans alone Japan imports some $80,000,000 worth of cotton every year. “We are doing everything we can to keep the increasing number of Japanese hands busy. It is a real problem—a problem to which Japan is giving its best thought. It is a problem about which America, too, has reason to think.” “The immigration laws are the Bore spot. Thinking Japanese cannot help feeling that America’s immigration laws discriminate against the Japanese as against no other nation on earth. And that hurts ourt national pride. Don’t Want Trouble “No intelligent Japanese wants trouble with America, just as no intelligent American wants trouble with Japan. But in America you have what you call your ■'jingoes’— and in Japan we have our ‘jingoes' too. “It is a problem for the cool heads and intelligent brains of both nations to settle. Our two nations should be friends, both by ancient traditien and by modern relations.”

New Holes Punched in Story of Paul Revere

British Not Halted by Tide, Cold-Hearted Science Test Reveals. By Tlntet Spinal BOSTON, Sept. 20.—Another popular American tradition, closely linked with the famous ride of Paul Revere, has been subjected to scientific examination and found untrue. It was not the tide that delayed the British troops landing at East Cambridge on the night of April 18, 1775, thus giving Paul Revere a better chance to arouse the country side. The fact is that the British probably were delayed that night because they waited for supplies from Boston. The condition of the tides that night has been determined scientifically by the use of a machine known as tide predictor No. 2, owned by the Geodetic Survey of the government. This instrumerit computes automatically the tides at any time, past, present or future, and it was brought into use recently to determine the reliability of- the Paul Revere tide story.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

LEGION GIVES OVATIONS TO WAIUEADERS Foch and Pershing Are Cheered Several Minutes Before Speeches. BY A. L. BRADFORD United Press Staff Correspondent AMERICAN LEGION CONVENTION HALL. TROCADERO, PARIS, Sept. 20.—The American Legion convention today paid tribute to two outstanding figures of the World War—Gen. John J. Pershing, commander in chief of the American expeditionary forces, and Marshal Foch of France. Both militaryjeaders were cheered long and loudly when they arose to address the Legionnaires. When Pershing stepped forward the convention rose to its feet and cheered him for five minites. Tribute Is Impressive The tribute to Foch was hardly less impressive, and clearly demonstrated .that France’s “Grand Old Man” was easily dearest of foreigners in the hearts of the American veterans of the World War. Pershing recalled the critical days of the war when he offered ihe American army to Foch because, he said, he felt that the war had reached the deciding point and unless the American actually entered the fighting the allies would lose. Thus, Pershing said, Foch was the real symbol of victory and the real friend of America. As Foch arose to speak he saluted the American Flag in recognition of the A. E. F. victories from Flanders to Argonne. “It’s impossible,” he said, “to say that one army more than another won the war. Victory resulted from the splendid cooperation of all leaders under a single command. Legion Is Revelation “General Pershing figured largely in the result when, without bargaining, he went the limit toward victory by offering me the whole American army, or man by man as needed. "Your legion is a revelation to France. With your youth, your powers of accomplishment you sweep away every barrier before you. “If ever you are needed for peace and liberty and you cry out to the world ‘together ad forward,’ there isn’t a Frenchman who wouldn’t respond.”

Auxiliary at Meeting The American Legion Auxiliary met jointly with the Legion today. Mrs. Adalin W. MaCauley. national president, addressed the convention, explaining the scope of welfare work. James A. Drain, former national commander of the Legion, reported to the convention on the safeguards placed around the Legion's $5,000,000 fund for care of orphans and disabled veterans. He said the men handling the fund had decided to work without salaries. General Gouraud, military governor of Paris, described for the convention the joy of the French in front line trenches when news was received that the United States had entered the war. Then he told how that joy had’ been dampened, with realization of the hazards of transporting troops through the submarine zones. SAFETY CAR SEEN HERE Traction Company “Demonstrator” on Tour of State. Displayed at the Traction Terminal station here Monday, the Interstate Public Service Company’s “safety car" was proceeding on its tour of Indiana cities and towns today.^ The car carries posters urging caution at crossings and safety precautions in general.

However, I’d prefer to leave this matter to experts on the subject before forming any definite opinion on the physical characteristics of the two.” Miss Ruth Meyer, nurse, who was absent on vacation when the hearing opened a week ago, was reported today as having stated definitely that the child born to Mrs. Smith was a girl.

FACE-LIFTING QUACKS ARE TARGET OF MAYO Thousands Are Disfigured In Quest for Beauty, Says Surgeon. By T utted Press NEW YORK. sept. 20.—“ Plastic surgery of the face, one of the compensations of the great war, is nowbeing perverted by quacks to the detriment of thousands who suffer disfigurement silently because of their prfde," declares Dr. William J. Mayo, the eminent surgeon, quoted in the Woman’s Home Companion. Dr. Mayo continues, pointing out the thousands of unfortunates who are permanently injured by face lifting, wrinkle removing and feature alterations by inexperienced persons posing as plastic surgeons. “At its foundation the whole beauty business is sound and legitimate,” says Dr. Mayo, “but the border line between legitimate and illegitimate in facial operations is hard to define. Leaders of the professon are careful to keep away from that border line beyond which the patient’s motive is only pretty pride.”

AL SMITH AND BULLARD HAIL RADIOPROGRESS 42,000 at World Meet See First Photo Sent Broadcasting Station. By TJnited Press NEW YORK, Sept. 20.—Governor Alfred E. Smith and Admiral W. H. Bullard, chairman of the Federal Radio Commission, were the principal speakers at the fourth annual Radio World’s Fair, which opened auspiciously at Madison Square Garden last evening with an attendance of 42,000, who witnesssed the first radio-photograph ever sent from a regular broadcasting station. The picture was that of Governor Smith. It was the outstanding feature of the evening, and thirty minutes after the click of the camera a Cooley rayfoto picture transmitter had picked up the sound waves from the air and was projecting a smiling “ \1” on a screen in full view of the thousands who eagerly watched. Commenting on it. Governor Smith said: “Nothing has made a greater impression than the advance in television and radio tranmission of photographs. This is the first time. I am told, that any photograph has ever been sent from a regular broadcasting station, and I am proud of this distinction.” Continuing, he said, in part: j “Radio is the most modern and complete form of communication. It is at the same time a great instrumentality for the promotion of human understanding. A lack of such human understanding breeds intolerance, ill will and disagreements. ‘‘To hear a man's voice, to hear a man speaking in his own way, to have him explain his views in person. to exchange views, all promote sympathy and good will.” COLLEGE ENDOWMENT WORKERS TO MEET St. Mary-of-the-Woods Campaign to Open Saturday.
