ter food and more of it, easier hours of work, and above all, the first and the only opportunity in their lives for winning a home and a decent livelihood by some foreign conquest." On the solution of the Japanese crisis Dr. Woodburn quoted from. Mr. Pitkin, who says we must "dispel the belief, now current in Asia and South America, that we are secretly and Tiypocritically committed to economic imperialism." To this end Mr. Pitkin says immediate independence should

be granted the Philippines on condition that they join the League of Nations at once. A disarmament agreement should be entered into with Japan and England. The billion saved

by this step should be used by Japan to force up rural and urban standards

of living and for colonization compan

ion of differing racial national groups and the segregation and solidarity of these groups are becoming more pronounced, Pitkin says. The old-fashioned American has disappeared. Instead there are colonies of Italians. Germans. Poles, . Jews. Russians and Japanese. A constructive solution quoted by Dr. Woodburn from another source, said that congress should provide for

complete stoppage of 'Japanese immigration until those in congested areas are truly Americanized. The needed legislation should be free from features humiliating to the Japanese therefore "free from offensive race discrimination." Moreover, the "standards for naturalization should be raised and privileges of citizenship should be extended to all who qualify." The address delivered by Mr. Wood-

WOODBURN (Continued from Page One.) Mississippi to understand why the presence of 100,000 Japanese among a population of nearly 4,000,000 whites should so arouse the whites. In fact," he added, "it may seem to us like a case of bad nerves on the part of the Californians." Facts show that the 100,000 Japs among the 4,000,000 whites now operate 458,000 acres of the best land in California, an increase of 400 per cent in acreage control in ten years. Their farm products have increased in that time from $8,000,000 to $67,000,000. Eighty per cent of the tomato crop, and the large part of potato and asparagus crops are controlled by them. Dr. Woodburn said. Not Servant Class. He pointed out that the Japanese are not a servant class, but work for themselves. A Jap only serves long enough to make enough to set up for himself. The Japanese is "a skilled workman, an experienced tiller of the soil, or a small business man," and it is said that more whites are working for the orientals than orientals for whites in California. It is said, the speaker declared, that the Japs, like the Pilgrims, have come to this country to work for themselves, and if necessary, like the Pilgrims did to the Indians, will, if need be, drive out the native inhabitants. Figures submitted show that out of every 100 raising sugar beets, 67 are Japanese; out of every 100 growing grapes, 52 are Japanese; out of every

SPICELAND ACADEMY HARD HIT BY BILL

NEWCASTLE, Ind., March 23 A fcidelight of interest to Spiceland people has. developed at Fairmount since the passage of the Cann bill, forbidding the use of money from the public treasury for the support of private schools, where a Friends academy faced the same situation as that which now confronts Spiceland academy. The trustees of Fairmount academy entered into a contract with the school city of Fairmount for the sale of their property- and in one of the most unusual sessions- of the Fairmount quarterly meeting of Friends it was decided the sentiment of the meeting was favorable to carrying, out the provis-

Get the relief and help that mustard plasters gave, without the plaster and without the blister. Musterole does it. It is a clean, white ointment, made with oil of mustard. It is scientifically prepared, so that it works wonders, and yet does not blister the tenderest skin. Gently massage Musterole in with the finger-tips.

Dr. Woodburn. Resentment against Californians for their legislation against the Japanese is felt by Japanese, not only be

cause they realU'o that they can do better by the land than the present owners do but also because of the over-population of Japan. Five-sixths !

ot japan is mountainous, cold, raw, and untillable. Japan is congested. Between 40 and 60 millions of people are living in the little country. Four persons must make a living off every acre. Prices have increased 14 times while wages have increased but four fold. Rice since 1914 has risen from 47 cents to $7 a bushel in Japan. With congestion and prices so great at home the Japanese in California feel that it is the white man's greed or white man's fear which bars the millions from this country who could build it faster than we do. Quotes Statement. A staggering statement made by Walter Pitkin in his recent book, "Should We Fight the Japanese," was quoted by the Speaker, "- at the most conservative estimate, Japan today holds fully 5,000,000 men and youths for whom war of any kind would mean a happier existence, bet-

THE one factor which is guarded carefully and never allowed to vary is the quality of products manufactured by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). The price may go up or down- as the markets of the world may dictate, the quantity of products may vary as the demand for them varies, but the quality which has been established by specifications determined with scientific exactness, remains fixed. Only an organization financially secure, physically well-equipped and directed by men mentally alert, could maintain the high standard of quality which has been the crowning achievement of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is an organization of 25,000 experienced, capable men and women who are carrying out with enthusiasm the plans and policies formulated by 7 trained directors. These plans and policies are designed to furnish maximum service to the public, regular profitable employment to the personnel and protection to the more than $200,000,000 which the stockholders have invested in the business. In furnishing service to the public no single factor is so important as the insistence upon a uniform high quality of every gallon of product manufactured, an insistence which is felt in the most remote corner of the organization and of the 1 1 states served by the Company. Take, as an example, Red Crown gasoline. This is but one of fifteen kinds of gasoline manufactured and sold by this organization. Each is made to meet certain uses for which gasoline is needed. Red Crown is made for use in the modern internal combustion engine and for this purpose it has no superior. Red Crown is the last word in a gasoline for power purposes. That this is generally recognized is attested by the fact that last year 725,000,000 gallons were sold and used by the people of the Middle West. This tremendous volume is the inevitable result of uniformity, high quality and reasonable price. It is but one phase of the business but it serves to symbolize the earnest, honest endeavor which every individual connected with the organization is putting forth to enable the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) to furnish the public a highly essential service.
