I felt it was also injurious. to our own interests, as China had entered the war lunder our advice, and that by the transfer of the rights tq Japan, we would lose prestige in the Far East.

As a matter of fact, Senator iFall continued, the restrictions under trading with the enemy act vrere "lifted on July 14, by an order of the war trade section of the State Department, "which could only have been issued by authority of the President." President May Meet Pershing at New York Washington, Aug. 22. President -Wilson may go to New York to greet General Pershing on his arrival home "next month, it was indicated today at the White House.

Sloan, Assistant Ke-cruiting Officer for Kansas, Commends Work Done Here. The local army recruiting station, nuder direction of Sergeant Francis McCarty, stands among the best organized and most efficient recruiting stations in the state of Kansas, according to Colonel J. E. Sloan of Wichita, assistant recruiting officer for the army, who was here today on a tour of inspection. "Not only, however, is the Coffeyville" recruiting office a busy place, but every office I have inspected has been far from idle, as many young men are enlisting and re-enlisting practically everywhere," the colonel stated.

"Tb present unusually large number of' enlistments is probably due to the face that the Air Service hay just been closed to applicants and there is a likelihood that the motor transport corps, coast artillery, engineers, and other preferred branches which offer the opoprtunity of learning a mechanical trade, may be the next to close." Colonel Sloan was highly pleased with the work at the local station, wrhich ranked third, in number of enlistments last month. He announced that added facilities will be placed at the disposal of Sergeant McCarty to aid in his work here.
