THE NEW WAYS
OF SPRING SUITS
one-fourt h
suggests
By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN.
I Al'f the little Island In the
Yl Caroline archipelago of the
I North Pacific which Just
now bulks Inrge In the
world's eye, has a sugges-
tive name. The dictionary
gives various meanings to
j the word, Including "snnp-
j pish bark, yelp, gab, to
i talk noisily, to chatter, to
scold." Also, as seen by
the foregoing "pome," Yap
many rhymes, lncJudlng
44map, Jap, scrap." Anyway, the Is-
land, In Itself as Inconsequential as
Its name, is now on the map to stay.
As to Jap and scrap—that Is a story
yet to be told.
Before the World war, you see, the
United States enjoyed direct cable
communication with China by wa; of
Yap, then a German possession. Dur-
ing the war Japan diverted the cable
routes with the result that American
buslnlss and press dispatches must
now be sent by way of Manila.
On November 9, 1920, the United
States called the attention of the pow-
ers to Its understanding that Yap was
not to be Included In the mandate to
Japan, but was to be international-
ized as a cable station.
Yet In December, 1020, the council
of the League of Nations, controlled
by the allied powers, approved the
north Pacific mandate, with Yap In-
cluded.
Now the United States not only
holds invalid the disposition, without
its %A ent, of any of the territories
eedeA tJt the central empires to the
allied and associated powers, but
pointedly suggests reconsideration of
the action, in defiance of American
protest, approving the award to Japan
of the mandate for Yap and other
north Pacific islands.
This h. )e substance of the Ameri-
can nott Great Britain, France, It-
aly, and Japan, now made public by
Secretary of State Hughes.
His iMtfumeot Is that the Ameri-
can intOst In these territories derives
from American participation in the
victo^ over the central powers; that
this iterest Is recognized not only
in the Versailles treaty, but in the
mutate terms; that President Wilson,
A the sessions of the supreme coun-
cil, made the reservation that Yup
Miould be Internationalized, and that
the council's allocation of Yap to Ja-
pan is not binding on the United
States, because this nntlon hns not
ratified the Versailles treaty, under
authority of which such allocation was
made.
"It Is a cause of regret to this gov-
ernment," the Hughes note says, "that
after and despite this protest, there
should have been any attempt to pass
upon drafts of mandates purporting
to deal with the Pftclfic islands, in-
cluding Yap, and that a mandate
should have been approved, or at-
tempted to be put into effect, which,
while purporting to be made In the
name of the United States, was with-
out the assent of the United States.
This government trusts that this ac-

tlon which It must assume was taken
under a misapprehension, will be re-
considered."
Of course, there Is more or less feel-
ing In both the United States and
Japan. Viscount Uchlda, foreign min-
ister of Japan, has officially declared
that his government will stand firmly
on its mandate over the North Pacific
isJands, formerly owned by Germany.
The Japanese are Intelligent, warlike
and Industrious. They are crowded
at home and getting more crowded.
They are living In cramped condi-
tions on a meager diet. Naturally,
they are seeking to Improve their con-
dition by emigration, penetration, col-
onization and conquest. That's why
they are In California, Hawaii, Siberia,
Korea and Shantung and would like
to be In Canada, Australia and New
Zealand. Most nations fight only when
war Is thrust upon them. Japan con-
siders war simply a policy of state,
which conditions may or may not
make expedient.
Yap, of course, has a past. The
German-owned island north of the
equator, turned over to Japan by the
mandate, Include the Marianne or La-
drone, the Marshall and the Caroline
groups from north to south; they form
a sort of strategic semi-circle around
the Philippines. The Carolines, of
which Yap is one, number 700 islands,
most of which nre small atolls. Their
total area is about 500 square miles.
The principal islands are Rabel-
thouap, 100 square miles and 10.000
population; Ponape. 134 and 2,000;
Yap. 70 and 2,7.r 0; Ruk, 80 and 12,000;
Kusalc, 45 and 400.

SOME SPRING DISHES.
With the new vegetables coining in
to add variety to the menu, the fal-
lowing dishes will be
suggestive:
Spring Cabbage Seal-
loped With Tomato.—
Cook a six-pound head
of spring cabbage until
tender, drain and chop.
Put a Quart can of to-
matoes through a colan-
der, season with a table-
spoonful of lemon Juice,
two teasp«H>nfuls of salt,
teaspoonful of pepper,
and cook until thick and smooth, stir-
ring constantly; add three tablespoon*
fuls of flour and three of butter,
rubbed together; continue cooking un-
til well cooked. Arrange the cabbuge
and tomatoes in layers in a two-
quart casserole or buklnti dish. z. %

ble up through cubbage and

Chicken and Spinach Soup.—Wash
and pick over two pounds of fresh
spinach and cook In one-half cupful of
butter for five minutes, or until ten-
der. Add one-half cupful of flour
mixed with one tablespoonful of salt
and three-fourths teaspoonful or white
pepper; stir Into the spinach. When
cooked and thick rub through a colan-
der; add to two quarts of chicken
broth. Stir Until it boils and serve in
bouillon cups; garnish with whipped
cream.
Casserole of Mutton.—Cut from the
middle of a leg of mutton a slice two
Inches thick, liemove the bone and
fill the cavity with onion or strips of
celery. Dredge with flour, salt and
pepper. Prepare In the casserole a
rich gravy of one cupful of brown
stock, one-half cupful of currant
jelly, a dozen olives, six pepper corns,
three whole cloves, and one table-
spoonful of lemon Juice. Thicken
when boiling with a tablespoonful of
Hour, mixed to a smooth paste with
water. Lay in this gravy the slices
of mutton, spread the top with beef
marrow, cover the casserole and bake
for one and one-half hours in a mod-
erate oven.
Italian Codfish.—Beat well two ege*.
adding one-half cupful of milk and
two tablespoonfuls of flour, one table-
spoonful of minced parsley, erne small
clove of garlic sliced thin. Place four
tablespoonfuls of olive oil In a sauce-

ful s of flaked codfish. Brown and

in the story of styles, for they pass
quickly, to reappear, however, after a

at the most exciting chaptert In the
story of spring suits, for the unexpect-
ed Is happening. Just when the sub-
ject of styles for spring and summer
appeared to be exhausted and the
time to write "the end" seemed near
along came some fascinating new de-
velopments to absorb our Interest.
Among them there are distinctive
models, probably Inspired by the Paris
openings, that have long coats but
these are not the suits that occupy our
thoughts It is the new ways In which
the first Ideas presented have been
developed that compel attention. Two
of these new ways are set forth In

WHAT TO EAT.
United States Is In no position to in
terfere, because it has not rntltied
the peace treaty anil has not entered
the League of Nations."
It is not to be denied that the con-
troversy over Yap, In connection with
matters In China and Siberia, Is a
danger spot. But any talk of war be-
tween the United States and Japan
over Yap is mostly "yap."
The plain truth of the matter is
that It Is probably impossible for
America and Japan to resort to war
with the hope of a decisive victory.
The two countries are too far apart.
It would strain the resources even of
the United States successfully to In-
vade Japan. Japan could not success-
fully invade the United States. Neith-
er country has the men or the ships
necessary for such an invasion. A
country that must tight an enemy sev-
eral thousands of miles across the sea
is at a disadvantage almost hopeless.
Japan, In a purely defensive war, Is
the most powerful country on earth—
except America.
It Is this military deadlock between
America and Japan that explains many
things that otherwise would puzzle the
student of Oriental affairs. It ex-
plains the Japanese attitude toward
the California situation. Japan knows
It cannot use force to change that con-
dition. The astute reader will also
see Its bearing upon the Siberian sit-
uation, the Shantung incident nt the
peace conference and our former
"open-door" policy In China. America
and Japan nre therefore still In the
stage of diplomatic amenities—where
they are likely to remain for a long
time. Incidentally, If Japan should
decide to make war on the United
States, she would presumably strike
without warning, as she did In the
Russo-Japanese war.
Japan Is not difficult to understand,

Thereupon lie married n native woman

Spain ousted this self-proclaimed king

their strategic position as to Japan,
