Similar resolutions will be presented tomor row at the convention of the National Collegiate Athletic association and, on Saturday, at that of the Society of Directors of Physical Education in Colleges.

"The material and spiritual sacri fices made by the Americans in the cause of the war as evidenced in these and other things are really wonderful, showing as they do the greatness of America and her people." Dr. Suyehiro thought that it would be the height of absurdity for Japan to pick a quarrel with such a great country without a sufficient casus belli. Japan should stand for an open door policy in the Far East, but in return she should receive similar treatment in Indo-Chlna, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. He said that America had been excluding Japanese immigrants but he thought it very doubtful whether she was suf ficiently justified in so doing, Japan, he said, should strive to have the United States correct her attitude not ADVERTISEMENT.

JAPS ADMIRE UNITED STATES Work Americans have Done in War Brings Praise From Japanese. Tokio, Nov. 28.—(Correspondence of The Associated Press.)—The rapidity with which the United States prepared for war and the magnitude and success of her military operations continue to draw expressions of ad miration from Japanese. Generally speaking, the public in Japan regard ed the United States as a peace-loving nation, which, having no bent for war, could never do much in the building up of a great army. The wonderful transformation of America in the war is the subject of many articles by prominent pub licists. Thus, Dr. Shiego Suyehiro, professor of Ifyoto university, writes: "There is no disguising-- the fact that prio-r to the war the Japanese ,did not. believe in the military strength of America, but the present titanic struggle has demonstrated be yond all doubt the error of the Japanese estimate.

ALMOST AS MANY" TOURISTS IN 1918 ASJ0THER YEARS Washington, Dec. 30.—In spite of war and enforced restrictions on travel, during the 1918 tourist sea son, the number of visitors to Amer ica's national parks was 93 per cent of the total in 1917. Stephen T. Mather, superintendent of the na tional park service established a year ago, has reported to Secretary Lane that visitors this year numbered 454, 841, against 490,705. in 1917. For 1919, the director anticipates that the new privileges and the released re strictions will lead to immense in creases. Director Mather urges that the grand canyon of the Colorado be add ed to the list of national parks, and that steps be taken to acquire for the' United States the Mammouth Cave, in Kentucky, the sand dune area in In diana, and the gigantic tree are^s in California. Total approprlations for *parks car ried for the year beginning June 30, 1918, were $1,012,000, Mr. Mather re ports, while the revenues from the parks, in the year ending the same date, were $217,105, as compared with $180,571 in the previous year. Point ing out that a large number of gifts gof lands and rights of way have been ade to the park systems, and are likely to be made oftener in the fu- the war going for a quarter of a ce tury at the rate pf expenditure which ture, the report suggests that perma she spent for the first year.
