The premier expressed the hope
tnat the An^io-Japaneiie treaty would
be renewed but with lull regard lor
American sentiment.
Partly as a result of the war—
partly owinnr to the opening of the
Panama Canal the greatest world
problems have shitted to the Pacific, *
Hughes continued "The greates
mass ol the world's population lives
In the east and in the stales border
lug the Pacific.
East Is Not Feared
Personally I do not fear what i*
hidden in the womb o! the east. I do
not take the alarmist view of eastern
problems. Nevertheless it is the duty
of every statesman to recognize tho
enormous potentialities for good and
evil in the progressive millions which
form the mod. m eastern races. This
is especially so since the indutsrlal
development of China and Japan lias
sowed the seeds of unrest.
The danger that Europe faced
from a handful of German intriguers
was trifling compared with the possi-
bilities of danger from the renascent
millions in the east. 1 therefore hold
that it is essential for America, Aus-
tralia and Canada to achieve a com-
plete unity in their aims and policies
in all Pacific questions.
Should March Together
"We should be careful to continue
to walk together and to do nothing to
force the eastein and western races
to march along divergent paths. The
eastern races are different from the
western races but l hey are net neces-
sarily interior. Australia does not re-
gard the Japanese as inferior, but as
a race apart, with their own ideate. It
ie not desirable tor America, Canada
and Austrila to adopt a policy of
aloof superiority towards Japan."

In the midst of an address one of

dance, declaring he was "reformed."

four revolvers blazed forth, filling the
room with clamor and smoke.
Not oLt* of the visiting party
flinched .Miss Tappan gave out a
song. "Where Is My Wandering lluy
lonlglit." It made Jud mud. It
caused him to think of his mother
"Shoot her up again I" he shouted,
leaping upright on a bench and pro-
ducing a buttle. "Here, all hands take
a drink I"
There was no shooting and no drink
hig Jud hud missed his fooling.
When Jud Hansoiu returned to con
sciousness the meeting was over. Oul}
the visiting crusaders were in evi-,
dence He was lying on a bench, and J
gentle hands were cooling his wuuud
ed head with u wet handkerchief, ills
eyes met those of Miss Tappan. Half
sobered, as he sat up he scowled in his
grave-faced nurse.

wondering if she was longing to see

It «s a quesilon uf varied discus-

come over Jud Hansom. He lay lu a
weak, dumpish daze. When he got
about he evaded Ills old comrades, did
no work and waudeied about in soil
tary places. The leader of the camp,
he felt himself becoming a weakling,
and one dark night Jud left the Gap—
a broken man.
He got as far as Hlgbee. He had
to keep going, nerve lust or not, he
told himself. A prospecting company
offered him a grubstake to try and
locate new claims. Jud had been
educated as a mining engineer. That
had drifted him West. He took up
ihe work offered. He turned lu one or
two fair prospects, tine day he came

It was she who met hliu at the door

became the partner of the judge in
working it. Hope, hard work and so-
briety did wonders during the next
month in banishing the nervous break-
down, and Judscn Hansom came down
the mountain side at the Gap one glo-
rious morning, singing as he weut, his
face radiant.
"I suppose you've heard of the wed-
