JAPS SEEK SOLUTION OF RACE PREJUDICES BY HIGH COMMISSION

GOV. MORROW ASKS COAL ORDER CHANGED

! FRANKFORT, Ky., Sept. 25 ModlJ fication of the coal priority orders of j t he Interstate Commerce commission j is asked by Governor E. P. Morrow in I a telegram to the commission in which he infer3 that such action is necesI sary to prevent a coal famine in j Kentucky.

Chileans Thank Wilson For His Congratulations ' (By Associated Press)

SANTIAGO. Chile. Sept. 24 President Wilson's recent telegram to the Chilean government, congratulating the people of this country upon the anniversary of the founding of the republic, was answered by President San Fuentes today. "In the name of the government and the people of Chile," said the message to Washington, "I cordially thank you for your kind message, which, in the name of the government and people of the great republic linked to us by ties of close friendship, you sent on the occasion of the anniversary of our independence."

(By Associated Press) TOKIO, Sept. 25. Suggestions that a joint high commission be appointed to find a solution of the California problem appeared to be favorable in responsible circles here. Viscount Kentero Kaneko, privy councillor; Viscount Fiichi Shibusawa, chairman of the Tokio bankers association, and Premier Hara have been conferring frequently and the impression has been gained that the proposition for a joint commission was the outgrowth of meetings of prominent Americans and Japanese in this city last spring. Details of the plan are as yet nebulous, but the Asahi Shimbun of Asaka says the underlying idea is for the president to name a commission including the secretary of state, some senators and representatives and also well qualified Japanese like Viscount Takaaki Kato, former Japanese ambassador to Great Britain. Want Law Repealed. Succeeding steps, the newspaper says, would be Japanese insistence upon treaty rights and then an appeal to the supreme court of the United States asking that operation of the California statutes be suspended. The newspaper believes that the Japanese public is generally pessimistic over present negotiations in Washington, and has a tendency to criticise the cabinet for adopting what is declared to be a lukewarm, makeshift policy. Do Not Want War. Unnamed peers are quoted by the newspaper Chu-Oshimbun, of this city, as counselling the government to exercise the greatest patience in dealing with America, as they are positive any other attitude would be suicidal. They point out that if she resorted to arms Japan's first step would be necessarily the withdrawal of all Japanese in America, which they assert, "would greatly please Americans." Suspension of commercial intercourse have the most dire consequences to Japan, they declare, and if Japan should succeed in landing troops on American soil the Americans would not suffer as much as the Japanese. They point out that should Japan on the contrary suffer defeat, her fate would be sealed.

Just Two Ways of Buying

There are two ways of buying. One is to buy what you find ; the other is to buy what you want. You buy by one of these methods and so do we. We don't stop with buying what we find in the market ; we make our own specifications, and get what we feel our public wants. We want you to buy from us in the same way. Let us know what your standards are, and let us try to meet them. Of course, you don't have the same standard for everything you buy, and neither do we. Where you would look for wearing quality in one article, style would be the prime requisite in another., and fit in another. Each department with its own standard of style, of quality, of comfort, or of fit, as the case may be, is endeavoring to meet your particular standard more than half way.
