The piece notes that by a May 25 1916 arrangement Japan took over German rights in Shantung and Kiaochow from China with a promise of return after the war. Versailles Article 156 reinforced Japan’s claim, granting harbor at Tsingtao, the Shantung Railroad, and local mines, leaving Kiaochow under Tokyo’s de facto administration while Sino Japanese talks continued.
The poem ridicules J. Hightow Jigstsith in a grand state tour, calling him a shark who swindles and hoards wealth. It contrasts opulence with ethical failings, suggesting respectable life would be better if the man had acted honestly, and ends noting the crooked leader’s downfall.
The Republican column attacks the shipping board for forcing high coal freight rates on Ford road customers and favors reducing rates.
