(By Associated Press) TOKIO. Aug. 29 Not since'the Russo-Japanese war has anything created such a ferment in Japan as President Harding's proposal to call a conference of the interested powers to discuss Far Eastern problems in connection with the general question of armament limitation. Japan had been looking forward to a general discussion of political problems with the United States and possibly, also, with Great Britain, but, coming immediately after the failure of British statesmen to agree on the renewal of the Anglo-Japanese al

liance, the proposal to deliberate on

and the Tenth, Eleventh. Twelfth and

Thirteenth amendments the fourtn column. There is no such thing as voting at the top of columns, as in general elections. One cannot vote a so-called 'straight ticket" 'either for or against ihe measures. Each amendment must be voted on separately. How To Do It. Each amendment is stated and then, just below it, with a square to the left of each, are the following lines: "For the Amendment" and "Against the Amendment." The square at the left of the first lino contains the word "Yes," and the square at the left of the second lino contains the word "No." The voter simply marks a cross in the square that represents his convictions. The election will be under the general election laws. All the safeguards against corrupt practices will be in effect in connection with it. The voters will have the same general rights he has In a general election. The

qualifications for voters will be the same as for general elections, except the formalities required by the registration law shall be dispensed with. Absent Voters A voter who Is ill or who knows he will he absent from his precinct election day. can vote by obtaining a ballot in advance from the county clerk and making it out, attaching the usual affidavit required of absent voters. The polling places will be, as nearly as possible, the same as in general elections, and the hours of voting the same, from 6 a. m. to 6 p. m. .-It Is admitted by authorities that several of the amendments are merit'orious an. I should be adopted. Others "have bfien debated by people interested in public affairs. The voters are left to draw their own conclusions ; regarding the amendments. The tar amendments are the ones chiefly debated. Both, sides of these amendments have been presented by speakers brought to Richmond by the -Chamber of Commerce.

PATIENCE REQUIRED TO READJUST WORLD

"We are too impatient. We trv to inirrv history," said Dr. Frank E. Day, "f Huntington, Ind.. in his address on "The Rebui'd of the World." at the rlvutavqua Monday afternoon. Dr. Day was discussing the mob vtania which . sobs "all is lost,'" and 'ei'lares "there is no cure for civilizaticn"' chaos; ro salvage of civilization." Lister.:" said Dr. Day. "There U rVnos everywhere, all must admit St.. Hut did you ever think that France was nor stabilized after her bloody revolution for nearly a century? After the deluge of disorder came the consulate, and Napoleon, and Waterloo,

;nd Louis XVIII. good fat old gentleman, and Louis Phillipe, and Napoleon the Little, and the empire. Then 'ame Tbiesis and war, war and war. Finally came the republic which said to the Tueton, 'Thou Shalt Not Pass.' Patience Needed. "Oh, if it took SI years to stabilize France, ought we not to concede a little more than these 34 months to ouiet the disorders resultant from history's greatest eruption?" Dr. Day declared that the rebuild of the world demanded three agencies: the school, the state and the church, and that in each field we need to

watch that wrong ideas do not enter and poison lofty thinking which i everywhere manifest. He roundly condemned socialism, and called attention to Its intrusion into school, htate and pulpit. Distinguishing between social :-f form and socialism. Dr. Day declared for all well orderer social reform which recognized the entity and necessity of the individual right in life's activities, but declared that after the manner of Carl Marx's thinking, there could be no christian folialism anymore than there could be christian theft or christian adultery. In closing Dr. Day proclaimed the reed of sublime optimism, declaring lull faith in the triumph of good if America does her part.

Far East caused consternation

The prevailing opinion was plainly fear of such a world congress. It was, according to the general view, calculated to decide great issues vitally concerning the future of Japan and these issues dealt with Asia which Japan tends to regard as being "her own preserves". There was apprehension in some quarters of resulting isolation. Explains Stand. Thare was dismay at the apparent difficulties found in extending the military pact with England which has ever been considered the pivot of Nippon's foreign diplomacy and which

gave to Japan international weight, because it meant a working alliance

with a great western empire. It was in the prevailing view, the ever pres

ent evidence that Japan was now of the great powers of the world and was

the effective bridge between the leading power of the Orient and a mighty

white power of Europe. Many men of Nippon therefore foresaw a danger of an Anglo-Saxon combination acting to strangle Japan's political development in Asia a fettering of future Japanese activity on the oriental side of the Pacific ocean. Japan therefore accepted gladly the armament discussion because the maintenance and increase of her navy and army are a crushing burden which financially she knows she . cannot stand. But she asked the United States to define what political questions were to be submitted to the Far Eastern conference. Meantime, she made tentative plans to draw up a list of matters she deemed vital for de

liberation in connection with her own interests and in connection with the general aim of the conference. Japanese of prominence, however, rejecting the fears of many bureaucrats, foresaw in the political conference a not.to-bs-lost opportunity of pushing forward the cause of Japan as a world power of demanding assured sources for food and raw materials so vital for their county; of finding an outlet . for their increasing

population, and markets for their manufactured articles on a basis of

the most favored nation treatment, and. in a general way of obtaining recognition of the principle of equal treatment and equal opportunity for the yellow race. Welcomed Conference These men welcomed the conference as Japan's golden moment. They were convinced that neither the United States nor Great Britain would fail to give due consideration to Japan's position and world wants, that they would recognize Japan's place as the leading oriental power and not

forget that Japan's very presence In the far east entitled her to certain rights, as she already possesses advantages, on account of nearness and her close historical and racial associa

tions with the rest of Asia. They be

lieved that Japan would better lot, not make it worse.

Many newspapers drew attention to the quick Calling of the Far Eastern conference after the deliberations of

the British Imperial Council and were inclined to deduce that American opposition was the cause of the failure to reach a definite decision on the renewal of the English alliance. - They rejoiced at the calling of the armament conference but they were plainly disturbed about the general political congress. Marquis Okuma, Japan's "grand old man" who expects to live until the age of 125, who has always claimed to be a liberal, and who was Prime Minister when Japan presented the famous 21, demands on China in 1915, was not optimistic in his remarks. He predicted danger for Japan and maintained that if Japan's acquired rights and interests In Asia were not respected and assured then Japan should secede from the conference. United in Crisis. The great internal strength of Japan is its patriotic unanimity in the time of crisis, coupled with a tenacity and a national patience that never seems to wear itself out. The opposition parties

approved the answer of the govern

ment to the United States and declared that the time had arrived to present an absolutely united front. A coalition

ministry was talked of to assure this! end, just as in France before the great war the "grand ministry" was formed under Poincare, when there was danger of trouble with Germany. The. general situation here over external political matters was complicated in an important way internally by The sudden effort of some 20,000 ship workers at Kobe to set up a socialistic system of workmen's control in great ship-building plants, in that city. The men demanded control by an industrial commission formed of workmen, a six-hour day, a system of pensions and, generally, better working conditions. This situation was partly the result of the high cost of living, which is greater here than any place in the world, and partly tbe result of absorbing of western socialism as recently manifested by Italian workmen in their attempts to syndicalize Italian factories. The Kobe plants which were building warships for Japan were shut down and troops and bluejackets were called out to guard naval property and maintain order.

WAYNE TUBERCULOSIS HOSPITAL PLANS ARE PUTBEFORETRUSTEES

Plans for the Wayne county tuberculosis hospital were presented to the! trustees of the institution and the .

county commissioners by John Muel-1

herller, architect, Saturday afternoon.

The original plans have been slightly altered by state officials and by T. B. Kidner, of the National Tuberculosis association, who was in Richmond

recently. .No definite action was taken Saturday. Estimates of cost of various materials for the building were made. The question of equipping the building was taken up. It was decided to have J. D. Pearson, of Dayton, come to Richmond next Saturday and

discuss the matter of equipping the hospital and the cost. To Have Separate Buildings Mr. Mueller's plans, call for a central building in which all patients will be housed upon entering the institution. They will be classified here and kept under close observation for six or eight months. This building would have 64 beds. Two wing buildings some distance from the central building would be built. One for the men and the other for women. Here the patients would be kept after the initial treatments at the central building. Another building would be constructed for a diningv hall. On the second floor of this would be the quarters for the attendants. A heating and power plant would also be built.

NEW UNIVERSITY

CHICAGO, Aug. 29. A "university of the education of mothers-in-law was advocated by Rev. Charles B. Stevens of the Third Presbyterian church in a sermon last night.

WAR LEADERS DISCUSS DISARMAMENT TOPIC

(By Associated Press) TOKIO, Aug. 29. Premier Hara and Field Marshal ' Prince Yamagata, one

conversation yesterday, which newspapers here understood to have been entirely devoted to the conference on disarmament and far eastern questions to be held in Washington this autumn. It was looked upon as indicating that Field Marshal Yamagata is still

influential in the empire, and aroused considerable speculation. Several newspapers declare that Premier Hara has been disturbed by the alleged insistence of the general

staff that the Japanese army must be

maintained at a strength of 21 divi

sions, and that, therefore, he sought

the counsel of the field marshal as

a leader of the militarist element. It i3 understood the South Manchuria railway is planning to ask that

it be represented on the Japanese I delegation sent to Washington. Field I Marshal Yamagata was recently appointed a director on this railway, and I

McGinnis, acting chief censor of the Chicago censor board. Miss McGinnis said that this city is the only one she knows of that has suctt an ordinance. It has enabled the censor board to eliminate nudes from street display as well as from the film. It used to be that the .board would cut out a nude every time it appeared in the picture, and then find posters of prohibited scenes in the lobby and by the sidewalk. Those days are past.

A great deal of suggestive adveitising of pictures that were perfectly harmless- has also been eliminated through the ordinance, Chicago's acting chief censor said. Deceived Public. "That was quite a trick in some of the downtown shows," Miss McGinnis

observed. "Managers liked to make it appear that they had a very savorypicture inside, and there the public flocked and were bitten. Poster advertising of such picture houses Is now much better. "Just a little while ago, to illustrate, we passed a harmless picture, featuring a well known star, without a cut. A little later people began writing in to the censor board asking why it allowed such a dteadfui picture to be shown. We received several hundred letters "At the picture house big colored

posters were hung outside with le-j gends like this, The White Slave Mart,' and 'Do you know your daughter may at any moment step off the curb into a life of nameless degra

dation?' Discovers Author.. "I asked the manager who wrote his copy. "His chest puffed out a bit as ha said. 'I do.' "Then I gave him a little light on poster advertising. 'You know that is a perfectly innocent picture," I told him. "Whatever did you mean by putting up this line of stuff. Why even the policeman at the corner wanted to know what kind of a picture the censor bureau was passing, and when a policeman complains ' "So he got some new ideas, and though he remonstrated I was making him 'lose a lot of shekels,' he took his spectacular advertising in and replaced it with something more nearly approaching tbe truth."

Wellington Koo, of China, Count Quinnones de Leon of Spain, and Gaston De Cumha, of Brazil, all members of the council, were present. The fact that they were ready for today's sessions, and were not represented by substitutes in any case., was taken as an indication of the importance the council attached to the Silesian question.

Viscount Ishii, president of the council had prepared a formal report on Silesia, and was ready to present the documentary evidence placed ia his hands by the allied supreme council. In some quarters it was believed today that the council of league, after hearing the report, would decide to

refer the question for more detailed

treatment. There was little expectation that a decision would be announced for some considerable time. It was anticipated that the assembly of the league of nations which will meet here next Monday, might be able to finish its work in three weeks. It was indicated that Paul Hymans. of Belgium again would be elected president of the assembly.

BERLIN, Aug. 29. An Invention by

which detailed, enlarged moving pictures of intricate surgical operations are taken without Interfering with the operating physicians and without the presence of a camera operator, has been perfected by Dr. A. von Rothe, of Berlin, and now is being used in a number of German medical universities for the benefit of students. It is claimed that the students secure better instructions from a study of the moving piture of the operation than

from witnessing the operation itself. ! The "operation camera" is designed to hang directly above the operating physician's hands. The cinematograph ical lamps are in a room above, separated from the operating room by a glass roof. After the machine has been placed in position an operating physician or

a nurse can start it by pressing an electrical foot device which is all the attention necessary on the part of the doctor or the attendants.

THREE SUB-OFFICES i

OF VETERANS BUREAU ASSIGNED TO INDIANA

PALLADIUM SEWJ BI RF.AU WASHINGTON, Aug. 29 The state of Indiana will be included in the territory of the seventh district of the veterans' bureau, which agency was created by a recent act of congress, known as the Sweet bill, to administer relief to disabled veterans of the late war. The veterans' bureau represents a consolidation of the bureau of war risk insurance, certain soldier relief agencies of the United States public health service, and the veterans' rehabilitation division of the .vocational training board. Fourteen regional divisions of the veterans' bureau are provided, and in each regional district several sub-offices will be established. It Is announced that three of the sub-offices for district seven will be located in Indiana. The headquarters for district seven will be located at Cincinnati. Indiana Sub-Offices The Indiana sub-offices will be located in Evarisville, Indianapolis and South Bend. Bureau officials in the sub-offices have no authority to adjudicate claims. It will be the duty'

of these officials to keep in touch with disabled veterans within their territory, compile evidence in connection with their claims, and then submit the claims to the district office for adjudication. That provision of the new veterans' bureau act which authorizes the several regional district offices to make final disposition of claims of veterans residing within their territories is expected to speed up settlement of claims. Hitherto all claims had to pass through the former bureau of war risk insurance in Washington. Expect Efficient Service The organization of the Cincinnati district office has practically been

completed and it is expected that it will be functioning at maximum efficiency soon after the first of next month. Only new claims for compensation and for insurance and new applications for vocational training will be handled by the several district offices, it is stated. The central office

of the bureau in Washington will continue to handle all compensation and insurance claims filed before the enactment of the Sweet bill, and the soldiers' rehabilitation division of the veterans' bureau at Washington will look after pending applications for vocational training. This plan was decided upon eo that the new district offices could begin operations with clean slates. Make Mistake Many disabled veterans, unac

quainted with the provisions of the new veterans' bureau act, have been coming to Washington to file their claims for compensation. Most of them are not financially able to support themselves here and have frequently had to call upon the veterans' organization for help. Should this migration . continue, Washington would have an army of veterans to care for during the coming winter. Vetefans' organizations throughout the country are now being urged to notify disabled soldiers to remain at their homes and have their claims presented either to the nearest sub-office of the veterans' bureau of to the district office. Relatives of soldiers who elected to allow the bodies of their loved ones to remain in army cemeteries abroad are expected to derive comfort from the report which has been filed by the Commission on Fine Arts, now in the hands of President Harding. Members of the commission, made an extensive tour of inspection of the American cemeteries abroad and they have advised the President that the graves are excellently cared for. The commission plans to have permanent cemeteries in France located at Suresnes, Romagne, Belleau Wood and Bony, and a permanent cemetery at Brookwood, England, near London. Originally there were approximately 2,400 burial places with 15,000 isolated graves of American soldiers and marines in Europe. Of the American dead who were buried abroad requests have been made for a removal of 69

per cent of the bodies to the United States. The commission proposes a plan whereby the tasteful appearance now presented by the American cemeteries shall be preserved for all time. Grounds will be secured of sufficient size to provide an appropriate space for each grave. Uniform headstones of marble are to be erected, and trees are to be planted to cover each entire burial area. The trees are to be the

great feature. They are not onlv to be

planted around each cemeterv. but also

to border the roads leading to it from

tne nearest town. Trees indigenous to the United States that will also grow-

abroad are to be selected.
