Quite in keeping with what was to be expected from tros: whose memory of their fallen comrades will never fade are the preparations that are being made by the American Legion for decorating the graves of those who sigep in for- cign soil. Tp the query that has been sent to the members of the organiza- tion, “Shall the graves of our fallen be forgotten on thig the third Memorial day since’ the armistice?” it can be safely an- ticipated that there will be a ringing answer in the negative. According to government figures there ire more than 61,000 graves in seven foreign countries as the result of the World war. Those graves and many nore were last year decorated under the lirectlon of the American Legion. That rganization participated in the exercises throughout this cguntry and what they 3iq they they can safely be relied upon fo continue with undiminished faithful- tess throughout the years. T This year there will be thousands of graves In American soil of thpse who fell or died abrogd that will be deco- rated by comrades ind others, and an- dther year it can be anticipated that there wi§j be many thousand more of those bodies brought home from abroad, but wherever they lis, whether it is in the cemetery which hag been given for their use in the gountries where they died or whether it is back in the cemeteries “.hmughout this country, they will be found and marked for the service that they rendered orfly one of the ways in which the memory of their saerifices is l.&t"!r”u. s course the graves will not be for- gotten Memorial day.

Ing a grateful country only awaits the opportunity, DEALING WIFH YAP. ::‘run; :;xerope have come replies to the note o retary Hughes ipg the Eshnd of Yap which ‘mdlcmwmgia or i8s approval of the contentions of this government, although the indications are that the attitude of Japan. would be swaited before making further reply. Japan by its reply takes the position | that It ig entitled to the comtrol of Yap ynder the authority conferred upon 1t by the council and that it regards the Unit- | ed States in the pesition of being obliged to show that it has reason for making rny claim at this time and also to show that the United States through President Wilson mada any reservation regard: the disposition of Yap. It is to be realized that while we pposed to the continuance of the con. frol of Yap by the Japanese, the posi- tion is not taken that Japan is respon- sible for it, but that the couneil of the league is for taking such action in view of the attitude taken by President Wil- son 3t that time, and for disregarding the ofact that the United States had a fl!ht to its interests in such mandated territory, becguse of its participation in the war, and the disposition of that in- terest was made without authority from this government. The fact that the action taken regard- ing Yap occurred some time ago does not right the wrong. Neither does it justify the course that was followed. The United States takes the position that it has not surrendered its rights and Insists upom respect for them from those countries which had a part with it in winning the war and which presumed to act in disposing of its interests without suthorization. Japan may be more directly cancerned over the Yap mandate but it is to be re- 1lized that it was given it by others and it is to the others with Japan included that the injustice that has been done to ibis country hgs been pointed out, and it is all, and not Japen glome, that must act upon it along with ourselves. IMMIGRATION, Early attention is being given the im- migration question by the lower house of congress, apparently for the purpose of making uwp for what the last session failed to do. Immigration was one of the problems which the regently ended short session was expected tp deal with. It was not forgotten but it failed to get by like a lot of other things and the country continues to be open to all those Who can provide the funds for the pass- age and pass the réquirements for enter- ing the country, regardless of the cori- ditions or the part of the world from which they come. & From the attitude whigh bas been manifegted By the house committes on Immigration sentiment leans strongly to- ward the emactment of 3 law that will limit the number of alfens entering the country to three per cent. of those of the différent nationalities in the country as- cording to the last census.. Such a measure is intended solely to serve as a temporary law untll it can be determined just what steps should be taken in order to bring ahout a proper revision of our permanent Immigratipn laws. Such efforts as have been made to sift the undesirable from the desira- ble have come far from meeting the re- quirements and while the country wel- comes those who come with the inten- tlon of becoming citizens angd belpg ®god, eitizens, it has reason- for putting the bars up agathst the yndesirables and against the flooding of the country with fisease browght from certain European Ipealities. tfit“ ure, that will vestrict the number com- ing in, without shutting off immigration entirely, will help to agcomplish the de- sired results until such a time -ah'nfi- manent immigration poligies can tablished.

The decrease in coal production is dug¢ to the fact that prders have been redueed | ;. and coal is mined in keeping with the de- mand and the means of transportation. ‘When there is a slack demand there ig an opportunity for goad gervice and the chance to store up the fuel against the time when it will be needed.
