MEXICO OPPOSES JAP IMMIGRATION MEXICO CITY, Oct. 30.—Japan's plan to send 5000 Japanese agriculturalists to Mexico probably will be opposed by the Mexican government, it was predicted today. A Japan mission is engaged in a study of Mexican conditions with a view to establishing a Japanese colony on the Pacific Coast. Also it is studying the possibility of establishing Japan industries in Mexico. Whether or not Japan is allowed to carry out her immigration plans, it is certain that a considerable amount of Japanese capital will find its way into this country. With millions of Mexican peons unemployed, Mexican officials declared that it would be impossible to absorb immigrants in large numbers at this time. From Mexico, the Japanese mission will visit other Latin-American countries. Even if Japan is rebuffed on her immigration plans she is planning extensive purchases of timber in this country.

Doheny interests in the Elk Hills, Calif. Dist., the defense opened its barrage of testimony late today. The first act of the Doheny attorneys was to introduce a stipulated statement showing that Rear Admiral Latimer, judge advocate general of the navy department, had in an opition rendered for ex-Secretary of the Navy Edwin Denby upheld the legality of the Doheny contract for construction of naval fuel oil storage facilities at Pearl Harbor, T. H. Admiral J. K. Robison chief of the navy engineering bureau by direction of Denby referred the first Pearl Harbor contract, one for the erection of storage tanks, and other facilities to accommodate 1,500,000 barrels of fuel oil to Latimer for his opinion, it was shown in the stipulation, and Latimer, after making a few changes in the contract returned it to Robison with an opinion declaring it legal.

Bain was to be one of the last witnesses whose testimony is considered important in the case to be called by Atty Owen J. Roberts, special government counsel and when he leaves the stand the government was expected to quickly finish its evidence. Robertsaid he had only four or five more witnesses to examine, and will probably finish with either late today or early tomorrow, when the Doheny defense will begin the introduction of its testimony to controvert the government's claim that the Doheny leases were illegally and fraudulently made.

The six had been making part of a meal from walnuts obtained from a nearby grove, it is said.

He would doubtless have escaped, but two citizens cut off his retreat and he was brat back. He is said to have remarked that he "outrun dat bullet" but that he did not want to do it again. Each was sentenced to 30 days in the Orange-co jail when brot before Judge French. The white men were: "Jesse" James, W.M. White, Bob Lanning and Charles Hazlatt. The negroes were: William White and Laurence Mitchell. Clyde C. Kirkpatrick was arrested last night by Fullerton police on a vagrancy charge. He explained that he had lost his last quarter by playing pool; hoping to win the zame and buy candy with the chips. He didn't think the judge treated him right by sending him to jail 30 days. John Ramirez of Fullerton, arrested on a warrant from Los Angeles charging a misdemeanor, was released on bail of $100. PRESIDENT OF RAILWAY CONDUCTORS QUESTIONED (Continued from Page One) organization for the entire election, covering presidential, gubernatorial, congressional and senatorial fights. The candidates which are being supported, he said, were members of all parties who had shown themselves favorable to labor.

Sheppard, in answer to Kirkland's questions, said he was unable to say what the budgets of the other 17 organizations were. He said about $28,000 to $30,000 has been spent by the conductors to date. The questioning then reverted to the Stewart letter. A copy of it was request that Sheppard either or not he had it. To avoid controversy.

Rorerback was the first to take the stand. He said that the Connecticut collections to date were $55,557, of which $20,000 had been turned over to the Republican National Committee. HA, CURSES! "And will you be nice to me?" he whispered to the girl, trembling in his arms. "Piggy Wiggly!" responded the trembling one. "Help yourself." With a low, well bred growl, he threw her into a corner. "Don't hand me that Piggy Wiggly stuff," he snared as he reached for his hat. "That always means come across before you get away with the goods." THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF. ON THE BATTLEFRONT IN CHINA These Chekiang troops are saying whatever the Chinese is for "War is Hell." They are resting up five miles back of the front lines after 10 days in the trenches, during which it rained occasionally. They are thoroughly demoralized, have very little equipment, and, observers say, couldn't know what to do with it if they had. Organization is lacking, the leadership being for the most voluntary. Food intended for them is rotting out of their reach. There is little or no provision for care of the wounded, the casualties being left where they fall.
