HEL Japan Only Wants Word From America To Bo Ahead In Industry CHAPTER III THIS IS THE THIRD INSTALLMENT OF THE VANDERUP SERIES. THE FINAL CHAPTER DEALING WITH EUROPE'S ECONOMIC SITVATION "WILL APPEAR TOMORROW. BT FLOYD MACGRIFF (Copyright, 1320, by The International News Service) NEW YORK, Aug. 3 7 Japan is looking toward the U. S. today for helpful guidance and sympathetic cooperation in the far east, Mr. Frank A. Vanderlip, eminent world financier and economist, declared today to the International News Service in an exclusive interview. "Japan actually wants guidance and co-operation "from this country in her policy towards Siberia. Manchuria and China." he said. "Japan would be most happy to receive mpathy overtures from the V. S. for developing that part of the world and ending the chaotic state of affairs which exists there." JVST BACK FROM TRIP Mr. Vanderlip had an excellent opportunity to get Japan's viewpoint first handed recently during a three weeks sojourn in the land of the Nipponese . Mr. Vanderlip indicated that a partnership of American and Japanese interests easily could be developed, provided the plan were looked upon with favor by the American government, for bringing a greater degree of good government to Siberia. Manchuria and sections of China. Mr. Vanderlip paid conditions !n some sections of Eastern Siberia and Manvhuria were flipping back to primitive conditions while China was continuing undeveloped . Mr. Vanderlip admitted that further r -immercial incursion by Japan into Chicago w ould be resented by the Chinese, but pointed out that China's government was "hopeless" and inefficient." while in many sections brigands ruled the country. Mr. Vanderlip was arked whether China could hope during this genera tion to be able to say at any time to! .Japan: "Come no further." unless China was backed up by western powers. "No, I don't think China can," he' replied. Mr; Vanderlip agreed that the Westtern nations had brought the material' trappings of their civilization to thej Orient, which Japan had readily ab- j erbed without the moderating infiu-j nce cf Christianity. "Germany was Japan's model." said Mr. Vanderlip. "And Japan cannot today be said to possess a deep, morals-building religion." LITTLE SAID ABOUT EGI.AD "I herad very little of any possible co-operation in a commercial sense vith England by the Japanese," said Mr. Vanderlip. "The Japanese were strangely silent. "Japan's situation Is urgent. There are 67,000.000 Japanese living in a territory about the else of California, on ly 12 per cent of which is arable and j the race is increasing at the rate ofj 701.000 a year. "Japan has three possibilities before her. First she can become an Industrial nation like England. But! that would be difficult. Ensland had! coal and Iron and was the originator! cf the industrial state. j TIME TO TRAIX MEN' "Japan ha3 no great amount of iron, j tnly a little coal and some copper.' Hsr people have little aptitude for repetitive work, they make no two! things exactly alike It would take con e!i?rable time to train efficient workmen and develp industries. And even then they prebaMy could not com" pete with England in yimilar lines. "Second. Japan could export her suri plus population although this w-u'd j hardly relieve the present heme situa- j tion. But where would the Japanesej go? Not to Canada or th- V. S. or, Australia where they are barred or to, India or China whi'-h already are over populated. Possibly to South Ameri-j ca. But the Japanese are not hardy, as a rtce tn grappling with an unfav-j eraMe climate or primitive conditions.; W ANTS TO HEAR FROM V. S. j "Third. Japan can exrand commer-l daily into Manchuria .Siberia and in) China, where there is coal and iron toj be had, and where social conditions should be stabilized. j "Japan only awaits the word from!

VOL. XIV, NO. 00. WAHTS St. Paul's Rector Has Resigned !T" TIT T XT-tttVi -i-v Tn I Return to Ohio for New Work-in Akron. i The Rev. William J. Hawthorne t . . . ... , ! Hammond, Indiana, for nearly seven ' years has resigned the charge to taku j effect September 30lh. and at a spec- j ial meeting of the vestry f the parish j held in the Guild room Monday, August 23rd. the resignation was accepted.! The rector has a wide host of friends J in the city and region, not only in his ( 1 nnritth V.pT t h ro ii r h oil t. the dlOCCSe of Northern Indiana and will carry with him in his naw work their very best wishes. He has been one of the most popular rectors the parish has had and outside cf it had an acquaintance that admired him. The Parish In Hammond under his rectorship has been blessed and is now t HKV HAWTHORNE acknowledged to be in the forefront of j the parishes of the Diocese. 150 have been baptized. 150 presented for confirmation with a total of 225 communicants added to the parish list. The debt of $7,400 which he found upon taking charge of the parish has been liquidated or the small balance covered by bonds payable upon demand. In the nation-wide campaign the quota upon the parish and for the church's mission was met aggregating. $8,500 and every obligation upon the parish for local, diacesan and general purposes has been paid. This should be an inrpiration for his successor, who has not yet been chosen. In the diocese at large Rev. Hawthorne will be Just as badly missed. Honors have been bestowed upon tho rector by his bishop who appointed him chairman of th finance committee of the diocese four years ago and each succeeding year to date. He Is a member of the bishop's 2oth anniversary committee and for six years has served on the diocesan missionary committee. He was elected by the diocese as a delegate to the general convention In Detroit last October and with his Senior Warden. W. B. Conkey. represented the diccese of Northern Indiana . His activities in dlocesian work have been numerious and varied. Rev. Hawthorne came to Hammond from the diocese of Ohio and returns to accept a new work In Akron, now known as the Firestone section. He is a Fhiladelphlan by birth but was trained and educated in Ohio, graduating from Bexley Hall, the theological department cf Kenyon College, and has spent most of his ministry In that diocese so that this Is virtually a call back home. His daughter. M:s Elirabeth. who is with the First National Bank of Hammond will accompany him to his new home In Akron.

IC B-H1 18 Years Ago Today Chicago' Auto Club Tried To Make A Run To Crown Point E.ghteen years ao this afternoon. Hammond received a fearsome visitation. It wa.i- something lea than a half a doien automobiles "horsele3 carriages." and "devil wasons." they called them trying desperately tj I make a te? t run from Chicago to Crown Point and back. The run had ben planned by tha Chicago Automobile Club to demonsLrate the reliability of autoa on long I the public discarded the name ' devil j wagon ' and learned that automobiles (were worth somathing after all. A i thunderbolt rue to Crown Point would show them . TOOK IT EEJIAL DAIS j It yas planned to leave the Chicago i headquarters of the club at 1 o'clock ! and be back at 6. The starting hour ; was observed carefully. One maI chine failed to get back for several I days, the others came straggling in away after dark and not one of them j got to Crown Point. I Hammond had been warned to be on , .... I :n the middle of the afternoon the first one. a yellow machine with high back, I dinky little hood and spouting steam and smoke, wheezed down lTohman st. The driver, a prominent Chicago at1 tcrney, sat bolt upright, his tyea glued ! cn the street ahead and hands gripping j the steering wheel in a determined I manner. The fellow at his side honk ed the little horn incessantly and oc- ! j cassionally manipulated some of the I j mass of lovers under the driver a di- ! rection . BREWER T WAGON' STOPS IT a No more cars came for a long tlm. The original cause of the break in tho procession was away back on Michigan avenue, at the start, of tha run wnen one of those old six-horse brewery wagons cut through the parade and scattered the machines. The second disturbance came out on Sheffield avenue, when the car of Loui3 Roenitz suddenly swerved and it ran down the bank into about four feet of water at the side of the road. Retrieving a car In such a predicament was almost a hopeless task then. Street cars stopped to let the p&siengern and crews have a look and soon a big crowd gathered. Finally a car belonging to W. R. Smith reached the scene. It was one of the old buggy sty's outfits with solid tires and a top so high that it barely cleared the trolley wires. It was famed for its power and demonstrated by pulling the wreck ed machine out with rep? which . brought from Ha.mmoTid. MADTC PRETTY GOOD TIME By this time Crown Point was out of the question so the machines preceded through Hammond to a goad stretch ef road about four miles south where thfy spent an hour or more in speed trials. Several of them managed to get machines up to flfty miles per and the machine1 which -led the pro cession home made the return trip from Hammond in Just one hour. None of the machines bore much rssemblance to peer.t day machines. The majority were of French and English make and all but one or two had French chauffeurs which was eonsiderer the pro-per thing then. There waj not a w-.ndshield in the crowd; no sidedoors and only one car sported a top. All passengers were decked out in long linen dusters, leather caps and goggle. About the only result of this much heralded 'dependability run" was the protest which was later made to thy Chicago council against the ordinance which limited automobiles to ths ridiculously low sP?ed limit of eight miles an hour in the city. This protestwas framed at a meeting of car cwneTs held after the last machine had reached the 'barn" cf the Automobile club. HARRISON CLUB STAGES PICNIC j Threatening Weather Keeps Many Away From Political Meeting. Threatening skies and the race meet at Crown Point cut the attendance of the Harrison Republican club picnic almost In half at Kellwood grove, 4oth avenue and Connecticut' street in vxary yesterday afternoon.

"Some day," he told the railroad men, "maybe not this year, you railway workers will hail that new law as the greatest forw-ard step in all the history of railroad legislation." Gallon is one of the most important railroad centers in Ohio, and there was a great outpouring to hear Senator Harding In this, his first speech away from the front porch. The senator motored over from Marion, twenty-eight miles away. The occasion was a picnic. "Let me ask." he continued, "what the great force of railroad w;orkers rajt wish wish for themselves and are willing to concede to others. Justice, is it not?

F. S. Betz, the Hammond manufacturer, who spent soma time in a business survey of Germany early in thu summer, is working heart and soul to aid the American Friends Service Committee of Philadelphia in its efforts to relieve soma of the tuffc,ring which prevails In Germany and Austria. "The committee is cow feeding 630.000 children in Germany every da," ays Mr. Betz. "It is estimated that fifteen million people will die there during the next year for the want of food and clothing. Few reaJlae how serious it Is. Any old suit of clothes, rair of shoes, and especially shoes for children and women should be seat over.'' Last week at the office of the American Medical Association in Chicago over $1,000 worth of clothes was collected and turned over to Mr. Betz to be forwarded to the different factories in 9rmny. He says that conditions are lrlghtful In Vienna which was for yers the center of the world for art, music and science. It is now- described as "a great city gradually godng to rieces." The leaders of culture, musicians, artists, writers and teachers are forced to become manual laborers In order to secure the nccossrles of life. Numerous stories are told of physical breakdown and suicide because of lack of proper nourishment. Conditions in the hospitals are pitiful according to a report Just issued by the American FVlends Service Committee. "No surgical thread nor bandages, a limited amount of ether and chloroform," says the report. "No vaseline, no soap except a sandy composition." A dreath of all kinds cf bed and baby linen. Rubber sheeting, hypodermic instruments. thermometers, sew lng cotton and needles desperately needed. The ration of food aai!able has been so low that few patients have the chance which the hospMal should give them. Even In the hospitals babies are wrapped in newspapers for want of cloth. Kags are unravelled to secure thread for darning and patching. No one who has ever seen the magnifioient hospitals of Vienna could help but tlel that every effort should bo made to allow the most skilled doctors In the world some chance cf alleviating the misery that has overtaken the city.'' SUFFRAGE TO BE CELEBRATED Mrs. William Meyers,' head ef the Hammond organization of the League of Women Voters, received a telegram today from the national headquarters announcing that tomorrow has b?en set a-s the day for celebrating winning of the women's fight for suffrage. According to the telegTam In all of the cities of the country at 12 o'clock noon tomorrow bells will be rung and whistles blown. Mrs. Meyeres tried to get in te-ueh with Mayor Brown to secure hi? cooperation in the matter but could not find him in time to ask that an official proclamation to that effect be Issued.

jIjLVJI a J HAMMOND, INDIANA District Caravan For Marion Sept. 11 Chosen by Lake Co. Republcans as the Day For Pilgrimage.

The September 11th date has 1tea set by the state hua.d'4uarlrs U'T pilgrimages as the ;ate for the Ten-h ti ngressional distrio; and advices fro n otjtr points in t.ie district ind caiti that the special .ij..ii will be filled bifoie .t reaches i:ie stale line, if it ali-tf from H.ni::. nd empty. '1 l.e special tri. i will leave Hammond over the Erie at 7 o'clock standard time. September 11th. It w 11 be composed of seven coaches, a dining car and a parlor car. It is scheduled to arrive at Marion at 12.39 and will leave upon the return trip at whatever hour the pii.-tnstis decide. This decision will probably be reached during the morning trip. St'.ps will be made at all of the fclations in Indiana to pick up republicans from other cities but there will be no stops after th'. train croxses the state line. In spite of the decision nf lke county republicans to forego the pleasure of a pilgrimage and place tlr? money in the county campaign fund it is believed that a large number from Lake county will make the trip on tho lllh. Lake county Is being taken care of by E. W. Wit-key of East Chicago. BYE! BYE! Sanford Bufcting of Danville, Ind., dropped into Hammond the first of the week, expecting to make a little easy money. Bunting elected to try the old check game cn Hammond folks tut he was pretty green at it. Last May he put 122.30 into a Dajiville bank and ha ha3 teen issuing checks against that account for seera! weeks. Many of the checks were larger than the deposit. Bunting made his fatal error when he tried to persuade Joe Rcckler. a member of the Hammond pcllc force, to, cash a check for him. Joe waj off duty and did not have his uniform on. The Eanville man offered h'm two dollars i to do it for him stating that he would have trouble in cashing it himse:f because he was not known in Hammond. Keckler scenteM trouble and took the fellow into custody. He has an assistant in Hammond. Floyd Martin, who resides at Hohman st. and Plummer a. e Martin seems to have been pulled into the game through ignorance. Bunting ha4 been posing as a horss buyer and said he had Just loaded a car "on the Monon siding in East Chicago." Replies have already ben received from the Danville bank and as soon as Bunting's checks are returned th charges of issuing fradulnt checks will be pushed.

Declaring "the press of the country is controlled by the republicans." he advised the workers that "by mall route we must solicit the democrats for campaign money." The letter asked for names of tentative contribu tors, the site of their bank rlls and their addresses, as well as the degree of their "liberty." "If any names you give are federal office-holders, or if you yourself are one, be sure to note that fact." the letter urged.
