Woodard was born on August 21, 1862, in the state of Vir ginia, and with the parents when he was a small boy, came west and lo cated near the then hustling town of Wyoming, located a few miles to the south of Union, late in the sixties, and has spent most of the three score and eleven years of his life in this vicinity. Here Mr. Woodard grew to man hood and an excellent man he was, without an enemy anywhere and al ways ready and willing to befriend anyone in need of a friend. During his early life, Mr. Woodard worked on the farm and also in a stone quarry at Wyoming. Saving his mon ey, he was soon able to go out in the western part of the state, where he purchased land and engaged in farm ing, but as the drouth was severe for years, he returned to this vicinity, disposing of his holdings there after drepping his savings in the venture. Undaunted, he started out again and in due course of time was able to purchase a farm and later a residence property in the town of Union. His land here consisted of some 40 acres Tokyo. The usually conservative Tokyo newspaper Asahi gave a prom inent place to "reliable reports" ot a secret Chinese-American aviation treaty which it said was recently ne gotiated in Washington by Dr. S. Al fred Sze, Chinese minister to Wash ington, and the American state de partment. If the pact is made effec tive, Asahi said, "it will gravely menace Japan's national defenses, wherefore the reports are claiming the serious attention of the imperial army." A foreign office spokesman said his bureau had no knowledge of such a treaty. Washington.! (William Phillips, acting secretary of state, said reports in Japanese newspapers of a secret Chinese-American aviation treaty are entirely without foundation. The Tokyo reports said such a treaty was negotiated in Washington by the Chinese minister and contemplated expenditure by China of 40 million dollars for American aircraft and the employment of American fliers as in- structors. Similar reports have ap peared in the orient of recent months and on all occasions the state de partment ha3 declared them absurd. From Tuesday's Dally The state relief committee appoint ed by Governor Bryan will be con- tied and the men sent on their way. fronted with requests for relief from eighteen additional counties when it convenes at 1 o'clock on Tuesday af ternoon at the capitol.
