SAY CONDITIONS
IN KOREA ARE
STILL CONTINUING
BY JUNIUS B. WOOD
(Special Cable to the Chicago Daily News
Foreign Service, by Leased Wire to
The Atlanta Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
TOKIO, Dec. 14.—Representatives
of several foreign governments in
Tokio are Inclined to doubt the state
ment of the Japanese foreign office
that Colonel Mizumachi’s sensational
letter to the Canadian Presbyterian
missionaries “embodies merely his
own personal views and opinions.”
■ According to information they have
■ received from their nationals in
I Korea, conditions similar to those
; complained of are continuing. The
Christian educational work there has
been discussed semi-officially, though
without the same military directness
and lack of camouflage. During a
conference between the director of
education in Korea and Bishop Her
bert Welch, of the Methodist church,
several days prior 10 the publication
of the Mizumachi letter, the same
policy that the Christian schools
support the Japanese political poli
cies was proposed, much to Bishop
Welch's surprise.
Having been present at Lung Ching
Tsun at the time the writer can de
scribe the circumstances. Mizumachi.
who was formerly Japanese military
attache at Washington, called at the
residence of the Rev. Dr. Foote, head
of the Canadian missionaries in
Chentao district, and presented him
the letter, requesting a reply in writ
ing. Thus far Dr. Foote has not
replied, on account of the serious in
ternational character of the letter. He
is awaiting instructions from the of
ficials of the church in Toronto and
from the British consul general at
Mukden, to whom copies of the let
ter were sent. ■
British residents in Japan are
piqued by the letter’s comparison of
the Dyer Amritsar with the present
Japanese expedition and by the sug
gestion of Buddhist interference
with British administration in India
and the reference to disturbance in
Ireland. The missionaries contend
that the letter is an admission that
Japanese soldiers killed innocent Ko
reans and corroborates their charges
of atrocities. e
The following day Colonel Mizu
machis’ commission visited Shogan
do and obtained its first view of the
results of the Japanese operations.
Investigation on the spot was'con
fined to establishing the fact
through questions put to survivors
that supporters of the Korean revo
lution formerly lived in the village
and did not refer to the acts of the
soldiers on the occasion when half
the male residents were killed and
much property was burned.
On subsequent days Colonel Mizu
machi visited the excellent Canadian
Presbyterian hospital at Lung Ching
Tsun, leaving a letter addressed to
Dr. Martin, superintendent in com
mand of the work and containing a
contribution of 100 yen (SSO). He
also arranged a dinner with the
Japanese consul at which eight Eu
ropeans living in Lung Ching Tsun,
some Chinese customs officials, two
priests from the French Catholic
missions in Korea were invited
guests. These persons were includ
ed in order that they might meet
the Japanese civil and military offi
cials and leading citizens.
Colonel Mizumachi’s letter, which
was accepted as reflecting the Jap
anese view of missionary activities
in Korea, was presented several
weeks ago to the Rev. Dr. William
R. Foote, head of the Canadian
Presbyterian mission. After refer
ring to the burning by the Japanese
of schools and churches which he
said had been used by Korean mal
contents. the colonel said he be
lieved the missionaries’ home gov
ernment would hope and believe that
they would not give’ aid to the mal
contents and thereby disturb the
friendly relations between their
country and Japan. He referred to
the Indian and Irish problems of
Great Britain and concluded with a
blunt warning that the success or
failure of the Presbyterians work in
Korea depended “solely on your
willingness to co-operate with the
Japanese government.”

Gene Cour, Chicago, photographer,

her life in waiting and seeking for

Youth Kidnaps Himself
But Fails to Get Reward
HYDE PARK. VL—The demand on
Mrs. Maude Laplant for S6OO ransom
for the return of her missing seven
teen-year-old son, Grover. three
WQeks ago, was an invention of the
youth himself, according to a con
fession that he is alleged to have
made to W. E. Tracy, state’s attor
ney, of Lamoille county, and E. C.
Brown, private detective.
On November 20 Mrs. Laplant
found on her doorstep a box con
taining a note saying that if she
wished to see her son. who had been
on a visit in Richmond, she must
place the ransom money in the box
and leave it unguarded or ‘‘his body
would be disposed of.”
That same evening young Laplant
was found apparently dazed and
numb with cold ina sugar house not
far from his home. He said that
while walking home from the rail
road station three men in a closed
automobile seized him and knocked
him senseless with a blow on the
head. Later, he said, he escaped
from a tree to which he had been
tied, and wandered to the sugar
house.
After the boy had confessed to
day to the state’s attorney that he
wrote the note himself he was ad
vised to go home and ask his mother’s
forgiveness. He promised to do so.

TOM HARRISON IS
HELD BY JURY FOR
KILLING HIS WIFE
GREENVILLE, S. C„ Dec. 14. —
Startling disclosures were made in
the testimony adduced Monday at the
inquest over the body of Mrs. Tom
(Gertrude) Harrison, who died Satur
day night as a result of a pistol shot
wound she received about 1 o’clock
Friday morning at her home in a
prominent residential section, when
Arthur “Monk” Young also was shot
four times, and Tom Harrison,
wealthy former club owner, was ar
rested in connection with the affair
A local newspaper man deputized at
the inquest Sunday to take the evi
dence did not transcribe his copv
and have the testimony available foi
publication until Monday. Police of
ficers who were called to the home
on East Washington street said Mrs.
Arthur Young, who admitted she had
been in the house at the time of the
shooting, and whom the police found
lying on the street near the house,
were the principal witnesses exam
ined.
Following the inquest, the cor
oner’s jury returned a verdict in
structing the officers to hold Tom
! Harrison for the kiling of his wife.
Policeman Burroughs testified that
.vhen officers went to the second floor
)f the Harrison home they found
Mrs. Harrison lying on the floor flat
on her back with a trunk over her
body. On the other side of the room,
he said, they saw the body of Arthur
Young. He said when they put Mrs.
Harrison on the bed. her husband,
who who was described as being
“pretty drunk,” came to the bed, sat
down and put his arm around Mrs.
Harrison and said. “It was an acci
dent, honey, wasn’t it? Tell them
all about it.” She was quoted by the
witness as having replied, “No, Tom,
it wasn’t an accident." Several times
while in the room with Mrs. Harri
son Tom said, “Honey, it was an
accident,” and she said once. “Tom,
you didn’t catch any man in the room
with me,” according to witness Bur
roughs.
Witness said Young had an un
opened pocket knife near him.
Mrs. Young said about 9 o clock
Thursday night she received a tele
phone call at her apartments, and
that Mrs. Harrison, speaking, said,
“Monk (Mrs, Young’s husband) is
here. Can’t you come over? If you
will I will come over and get you.
She said she found Mr. Young and
Mr Harrison eating supper, appar
ently the best of friends. She said
she and the others all took a few
drinks of gin
Young, reputed to be champion
oilliard player of the southeast, still
is in a critical condition and has
about an even chance between death
and recovery. Harrison, who has has
retained counsel and is maintaining
a policy of silence, has made no move
to Obtain bail.
Foreign Made Toys
Being Replaced by
‘‘Made in America”
WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.—Some
idea of the extent to which foreign
made toys have been replaced m
America by the home-made article is
given by the estimate of- the Amer
ican Forestry association that close
to 30,000,000 feet of lumber was
used this year by American toy
makers.
By adding tlie millions of toys
made from this wood to the enormous
quantity made of other material, the
Forestry association says some idea
of the immensity of the industry will
be gained. If the buying public will
“look for the label,” it adds, the
foreign toy will be eliminated.
“The main consideration which
holds wood in its place as toy ma
terial is not cheapness," says the as
sociation, “though that has some
thing to do with it. Articles of large
size would be too heavy If made ot
metal, but many articles are made
of wood because it is the best, irre
spective of cost or weight. Sleds
are a good example.
Children are the arbiters of toy
kinds and style. They imitate what
they see around them and toymakers
recognize this fact. The
turer supplies what the child wants
by making a class of objects which
may be designated as educational.
Another class, Imitating things seen
in real life, is recognized as archi
tectural. A third has to do with
trades and the tools and machines
for carrying them on. A well defined
group is based on the use of musi
cal instruments. Boats, rafts, cajioes,
and such things as float and are use
ful have been responsible for toys
based on water craft.
Children are familiar with furni
ture and they easily recognize two
classes, one for the kitchen and one
for the living room, and these go
under the list of furniture toys. Ani
mals and birds and creeping things
form another class grouped as nat
ural history. Still another kind
which Is very common belongs in
the class of games and amusements.
The waste problem In toy making
Is not a serious one. says the
Forestry association, because most
of the pieces used are small and
what does not ,do for one thing will,
as a rule, do for something else.

WAR-TIME LAWS
KILLED IN HOUSE,
SENT TO SENATE
W'ASHINGTON, Dec. 14.—Specula
tion today as to its probable fate in
the senate followed the passage in
the house late yesterday without an
opposition vote of the Volstead res
olution repealing most of the war
time legislation. The repeal measure
was broadened at the last moment
by the adoption of an amendment
including the Leyer food control act.
As it goes before the senate, the
measure leaves for repeal only the
trading with the enemy act, the war
finance corporation act, measures
dealing with issuance of Liberty and
Victory bonds, and the District of
Columbia rent act.
The resolution declares “any act
of congress that by its terms is in
force only during the existence of a
state of war and a limited time
thereafter shall be construed and ad
ministered on the date which this
resolution becomes effective.
The measure, as adopted, is practi
cally identical with that passed by
congress just before the adjourn
ment of the last session and vetoed
by President Wilson.
The measure now goes to the seri
ate, where its speedy passage is preL
dicted. Its effect will be to take
away from the president a number
of extraordinary powers which were
given him during the war and which
permitted exercise of discretion in
matters which before then had re
quired consent of congress. Most of
the laws setting up war-time ma
chinery were to be repealed automat
ically after peace was established.
Theoretically the country is still at
war, and the laws had remained in
effect. The resolution wipes them
off the books.

SUMMERVILLE, Ga„ Dec. 14.
The pensioners of Chattooga county,
as well as Georgia, as approved un
der the law of 1919, to whom a pen
sion of SIOO for 1930 will be paid
will not receive their money before
March 1, 1921, according to a let
ter just received by Ordinary J. P.
Johnston, of this county, from J. W.
Lindsey, pension commissioner of
Georgia.
Mr. Lindsey stated in his letter
to Ordinary Johnston that he had
hoped earlier in the fall to make
this payment to the pensioners by
November 1, but that was before
the reduction of the price of cotton
and other products.
Few seem to be paying their taxes
for 1920 promptly, according to Com
missioner Lindsey, and that is the
only source from which the state
derives its money.

MORE BOOSTERS
. VOICE SUPPORT
OF WORLD FAIR
The army of boosters for the pro
posed world’s fair in Atlanta in
1925, is steadily growing, according
to reports from M. D. Gleason, who
Is working in co-operation with the
world’s fair citizens committee head
ed by Councilman R. A. Gordon. Mr.
Gleason has appeared before a large
number of civic and fraternal bod
ies throughout the city, and has ob
tained a practically unanimous voice
of approval from representative At
lantians in all walks of life.
It is now proposed that the fair
be held for six months, beginning in
; May, 1925, and that preparations be
begun immediately for making It one
of the most important events in the
history of the city.
The big fair is expected to accom
plish a number of worthy objects
which will affect not only the south,
but the whole country. The last
world exposition was held at San
Francisco in 1915, and in 1925 it is
expected that the time will be ripe
for another great assembly. This
may be in celebration of world peace
following the great war, and can
serve as a great agency in climax
ing the reconstruction era in Amer
ica, according to present plans.
The necessity of further advertis
ing the industrial and agricultural
development of the south and for Im
pressing upon outsiders the great
possibility of future development,
will also be an object of the Atlanta
world’s fair. It is expected that such
an enterprise will attract a large
number of desirable settlers to the
south, and that it will promote not
only the industrial but the agricul
tural welfare of Georgia and other
states.
It is believed also that the world
exposition will mean a great deal
toward the development of the Latin-
American trade in the south, a trade
for which Atlanta is one of the nat
ural centers.
The following organizations were
visited by Mr. Gleason during the
past week, all of them pledging unan
imous moral suport of the world’s
fair idea: Atlanta post No. 1, Amer
ican Legion; Southern Fertilizer as
sociation, Capital City club, Atlanta
Hotel Men’s association, Atlanta
branch No. 229, Grand fraternity;
Fulton lodge No. 14, Daughters of
Rebecca; East Atlanta council. Jun-

Farmers Are Urged
To Protect Cotton
Against Weather
J. J. Brown, commissioner of agri
culture, Tuesday was preparing a let
ter to the farmers through the state
urging protection of cotton against
weather damage.
“Information has come to the de
partment of agriculture from many
sources,” said Comihissioner Brown,
“that baled cotton is being left ex
posed to the weather.
. “After a farmer has toiled and
sweated to produce cotton, it is the
height of folloy to leave it exposed.
Every time the rain falls on it. the
grade of the cotton depreciates and
the value goes down. We are earn
estly urging our farmers, first, to
place their cotton in warehouses ev
erywhere, and preferably in bonded
warehouses; second, if warehouse
storage is not available, to protect
the cotton on their premises.”
Cotton can be fairly well protected,
the commissioner said; by lifting: it
off the ground, stacking it on end.

“A number or my friends, after
seeing the wonderful good Tanlac did
me, began taking the medicine, and
now they all agree with me that it
is the grandest medicine on earth,••
said Mrs. Ella Leftwick, 722 Pile*
St., Kawsas City, Kan. *
“Tanlac completely restored my
health,” she said, “and just seemed
to give me a new lease on life. If I
could talk personally with every
woman suffering as I did, I would
urge them to take this medicine.
“For the first time in three years
I am able to eat and enjoy three
healthy meals every day and not suf
fer in the least with indigestion aft- ♦
erwards. I am never troubled .now
with the awful smothering spells
that used to frighten me so much,
and the dreadful headaches that came
upon me every day have been en
tirely broken up.
“I was extremely nervous and
couldn’t sleep well, but now my
nerves are in splendid shape, and I
sleep like a child every night. My
strength has been so wonderfully in
creased that I can now do all the
housework in my eight-room house
and attend to the children besides. I
feel just splendidly all the time now. i
Tanlac is certainly worth its weight
in gold.”
Tanlac is sold by all leading drug
