Japanese Buying American Lumber. Washington. Sept. 24. —Enormous quantities of American lumber arc to be used in the restoration of Japanese buildings destroyed by the earthquakes and fire. The far eastern division of the commerce department, estimating that nearly 500.000 homes were destroyed, pointed out that (10 .per cent of nil lum ber used in Japan is shipped from the United States. Piling for the Yokohhamn wharves .-and paving blocks for new streets also will be required from Amer ica, it was predicted. Although Japanese homes have been and probably will con tinue to be of comparatively Himsy ✓con struction because of the perpetual earth ffuake menace, the department snid mnclh lumber goes into their construc tion, principally fir. hemliek, pine and cedar. American woods are more favored and can be laid down in the principal Japanese ports even cheaper than na tive lumber. , “Does your wife usually agree with you V” - “Yes—if I know her opinion before I form mine.” She: “Can’t we find away to keep the cook a little longer?” He: “Well, we might turn the kitchen clock back an hour or so.” Had an Engagement.

STRESEMANN ABANDONS PASSIVE RESISTANCE Orders Resumption of Activities in the Ruhr at Once. Berlin, Sept. 24.—Chancellor Strese mann announced tonight that the govern ment had decided to bandon passive re sistance immediately and unconditional ly. In his statement the chancellor an nounced that the government lind decid ed to abandon the policy of passive re sistance in the Ruhr and Rhineland and order resumption of activities in all lines at once. f Tlie government’s decision is not made condition on the previous return' of de portees or the release of imprisoned na tionals, these and other disputed points being left to subsequent negotiations Avith the occupying powers. The chancellor urged the employers to resume operations at their plants and advocated uniformity in this so as to avoid independent action which might be detrimental to the restoration of economic normalcy in the Ruhr and Rhineland. No announcement was forthcoming to night regarding the method which the Strcssmnn government will employ to apprise the occupying powers of its de cision to oidl off passive resistance with out having - obtained the concessions which it had designated as indispensable conditions in previous utterances. The chancellor may confine himself to a brief declaration m the Reichstag. which would also be considered as notification to the outside world that the government had reached' its decision despite failure to secure in advance any conclusion from France or Belgium, thereby virtually making an unconditional surrender. There was a rnmor in diplomatic cir cles tonight that a third power had of fered the government its good offices in the direction of vouchsafing it a formal adjustment of the Ruhr conflict which would not impose humiliating conditions in the nature of a signed capitunfion, or formal admission of responsibility for its policy of passive resistance.
