A Message
from King's Palace?
You Need Not Pay
Top Prices for
Worthy Goods
We frequently hear the jjresent described as
a period of willful extravagance?an era of loose
spending that cncourages and helps to crcate high
prices. We do not believe this accusation fits
any considerable portion of the public. On the
other hand, we do believe that the great majority
of people are buying with more care than ever
before. It is to this sound, practical element that
.we want to say that safety in buying i> not de
pendent on paying top prices.
Style and serv ice are >ti 11 obtainable without
extravagance. Between the extremes of trash
and trumpery there is good merchandise at
relatively low prices. Top prices seldom mean
value in proportion?they are often associated
with "atmosphere"' rather than added intrinsic
w orth of the merchandise.
More and more people are finding strenuous
shopping problems solved at King's Palace. They
are paying much less than top prices for worthy
goods.

VLADIVOSTOK, Siberia. April 7
(delayed).?Certain incidents are
omitted from the Japanese official ex
planation that Russian sniping: and
J shetTing at 10:15 Sunday night
(caused the Japanese suddenly to cap
| ture the city with a considerable loss
!of Russian lives.
| Before 10 o'clock the Japanese had
? seized the railroad station and visited
| the portion of the British mission
! building occupied by the Russians,
i Japanese civilians left the rural dis
tricts several days previously, sand
i bass were stored, machine s?uns were
' placed to sweep buildings occupied

I c r. the hilltops and troops distributed
S -all of which preparation could no*.
? be made instantly.
! Ordered n? 4 O'Clwk In Morning.
The Japanese publicity bureaus ot
t Hcial statement is that the order to
i disarm the Russians was given at
| o'clock in the morning. A consider
able force of Japanese was stationed
;a the Japanese Red Cross building ti
the interallied compound The tirs
shots i? the compound were flred at i
o'clock in the morning when the ,
Japanese soldiers turned their ma- I
chine guns on a dogen surprised Kus
sian soldiers. Though the
'did not reply, the machine ??ns |
tined to Are on Russian and Czecli
soldiers, and even on woinen happen
ine to appea on the open spaces of
the compound. Crowds werein^ron
of the buildins where the prisoners
j were confined in the morning
Gen. Inagski. chief of the Japanese
staff, informed American officers that
?11 the prisoners eventuallj would b
released. Many Korean refugees in
Siberia, past offenders against the
Japanese, were rounded up and sonic
Russian political prisoners of the .or
nier government were set free.
The action of the remstvo in naming
Gen. Baldyreff military commander? ir
place of Comrade Krakovefcky. the
first appointment of the local govern
ment. possibly foreshadows the for
matlon of a buffer state In the fai
cast between the' bolsheviki of Euro
pean Russia and imperialistic Japan
The government of such a state would
be social democratic in form, either
under a Moscow or a Japanese pro
tectorate. It is thought that present
local conditions indicate Japanese
control, with a possibility that other
nations may be Interested.
Rnlcutlra li??l?l?H.
Xo explanation is given of Krako
vetsky's sudden resignation. uen
RaldvrcfT was a former member of
the t'fa-Samara-Ekaterlneburg direc
torate. Prior to the Kolchak coup he
sought refuge in Japan, returning to
Russia recently. When it was report
ed that his appointment was dictated
by the Japanese military, he issued ?
public statement affirming his ipyalty
to the ideals of the Russian people.
Recent events have united all rlasse.*
in Siberia in a- determination to s?
cure a government which will be ahl?
to stand without interference from
foreign military forces. Word as to
what action other nations will take
as a result of the sudden display of
force by the Japanese military is.
eagerlv awaited by the Russians.
Since their drastic measures in dis
arming the Russian military the Japa
nese have avoided the appearance of
interfering In civil affairs, in accord
ance with their announced policy. So
far the local newspapers have not
been prevented from printing severe
criticisms of the Japanese actions and
statements that the Japanese caused
an unnecessary loss of life, despite all
their promises that no trouble was
Impending. More restrictions are im
posed on news reports sent to the out
side world. The Russians censor ca
ble dispatches here and the.Japanese
censor them again when they cross
their country.

? MONTGOMERY. Ala.. April 20?"l
would unhesitatingly order the de
portation of Katnonn de Valcra with
out delay," was a terse sentence from
a letter of Uov. Thomas K. Kiiby to
t'rainton Harris, commander of the
Birmingham Post. American Legion,
given out here after a committee of
three had presented resolutions adopt
ed by that chapter asking the gov
ernor to proclaim publicly the Irish
president persona non giata in Ala
bama. .
The co Hi lllltt ee interviewing the
governor Included Circuit Judge Hor
ace Wilkinson of Birmingham, Wil
liam Rogers and (Jeorge Rogers, and
after tccelving their petition and giv
ing it due consideration the governor
directed his reply thereto, in which he
holds that it is without his province
10 officially recognize or to refuse to
recognize officially any cMizen of a
foreign nation who is traveling with
out official status.
Continuing, the letter says: "So far
as my information goes there has been
no recognition of an Irish republic by
the United States.
"Personally, 1 believe that thi? pil
grimage of de Valcra and his Sinn
Fein propaganda should have long
ago received the attention of the
State Department at Washington, and
were I directing official of that de
triment I would unhesitatingly or
ler tlie deportation of de Valcra with
>ut delay.
"I view with, extreme disfavor this
-Jinn Fein agitation within the United
States, which has already resulted in
serious misunderstandings between
-he people of the United States and
ingiand. our ally in the world war.
t is hard to understand how a pa
triotic American could continue this
Agitation as it has been conducted
within recent months were he not se
riously misled in his zeal for a ca'use
which involves the Internal affairs of
a friendly nation."
