NEAR FINAL STAGE

First Four Groups of Pekin's Demands Worn Threadbare and Attention is Turned to Seven Sub-Heads.

II y u Sjn vial Correspondent. PKKIX, March "1. Kidence is accumulating that tho Pekin negotiations cannot be protracted much lonjrr and that the important and linal Elac has almost been reached. The firt four jrroups of Japan's demands have been worn almost ' threadbare and the discussion Is now turning on the seven sub-heads of tho 'crucial group flvo about which there ; Is much mystery which must draff in ' several other powers. I am able to throw a Mood of lifiht on these matters affecting tho exl.sttnce of China as a sovereign internajtional t-tate. as I translated the original text. There is no possibility of a mistake, despite the ingenious protcstatlons of Toklo and all the conUicting" ctfielal explanations. The tub-heads are: 1 China appoints the Japanese adi Alters in every needed direction and j Is not to enter into any foreign areements -without consultation with Japan. 2 Privileges of the Japanese throughout the country. 2. Mixed police forces to ho established, assisted by tho Japanese wherever needed. 4. 'Minimum of 50 pertenlum of all I future war munition contracts shall be placed with Japanese and with the 'joint Japanese and Chinese arsenals. 5. Xew work to be permitted in tho ' Japanese railways f rem Kiang-Tsi province in the Yan-Tso valley, south- ; wards to Fuhklen province and tho ' Canton coasts. G. I'uhkien province to be declared j special area and no rights to be conceded to any other nation than Japan. 7. Propagation by the Japanese of Buddhism to be permitted. China Will Not Concede. I can emphatically state that China j w ill not concede a single one of these I articles, save, perhaps the seventh, ; which already has irritated foreign opinion as being a secret threat at the jnlsslonaries.

Japan till shows no signs of backing down. Indeed in her answer, xnado on March 22 to the American note, a document of far graver importance than is generally supposed, covering as It did, 20 pages, Japan

fboldly -pushes aside the five categorical kuestions "which America addresses to llicr, using what may euphemistically Tho called ingenious tergiversation. : Taking tho bull by the horns, Japan Uleclares her "action in l"uhkien province Is solely dictated by the desire to secure that no power shall build dock pards or harbors in Santuao bay in Hho vicinity of Foochow, for which tho tTJethlehem steel works long hko tendered a proposal, as theso could serve Lis a point of vantage for any strong Snaval force directly menacing ForLmosa. The matter of the mixed police only Applies to South Manchuria, while the matter of the Japanese advisers, mixed Japanese and Chinese arsenals and the Snona.llen.itbm of the Chinese coast, are 'xleslred data which al powers should upprove. I am certain that, conjointly, the unsatisfactory explanation given to schina of the presence of large new "bodies of Japanese troops in China oupled with sins of invasion of the Shantung interior westward to OhinaiJ'u, are intended to lead to further deXelopments In -vpril. give caseToTury

WHY SO.MK WOMEN T.OOIC DOWDY. In the April Woman's Homo Companion Grace Margaret Gould, fashion editor of that publication, explains how fashions have to be applied differently to different individuals. A woman may be fashionably dressed and still look like a frump. Following id a nextract from what the has to say: "The new fashions. generally speaking", each season attempt to give grace and beauty to women as a whole; but for each individual me there must be discrimination. "Fashion favors a style for everybody and everybody in stle; but yet one woman's style is another woman's dowdlness; just as one man's meat is another man's poison. There is danger, therefore, in following blindly the dictates of fashion, for what Is attractive for one woman may be ridiculous for another."
