Japan is nevertheless planning wal
somewhere and he argues that China is
the foe which the Japanese govern
ment has in view. 1t would not be a
difficult matter to pick a quarrel with
China, for there are always sufficient
pretexts, and the Japanese government
feels that a war with China would be
another easy victory which would re-
suit in a large indemnity, increased
prestige abroad and would serve to
allay the growing dissatisfaction
among the japanese people against the

Japan's Financial Dilemma,

Japan is finding the price of glory a
very high one to pay and the burden
of increased taxation is resting very
heavily upon the shoulders of the little
brown people of the Mikado's empire.
Slowly. but from sources whose
authority cannot be doubted. the de-
tails are coming to light which prove
to the world the extent of the financial
crisis which the japanese government
is facing. In a recent address Con-
gresham DENLY of Michigan declared
that Japan must either disarm. fight
some other weaker power or repudiate
her debts" Mr. DENLY is the son of a
former United States minister to
China and spent most of his early life
in the far East and is exceptionally
Well qualified to speak on Japanese
affairs.
In support of his striking statement
quoted above he brings an array of
| facts which are very impressive.
of no less than So per capita. a debt
which has been doubled within the
past three years. Where the average
American contributes 32 per cent. of
his income in taxation. the AVERAGE
Japanese has to give y per cent.
Moreover. while the government
revenues are increasing as a result of
the feverish popular demand for
greater naval and military strength
heavy tax burden must be made
heavier still in the near future by some
new form to increase taxation.
A deficit of at least IL 100000 yen is
| admitted in the present year and a
still greater deficit for next year and
the year after and the problem before
the japanese government is to discover
source of new revenue without driv-
ing to revolt and revolution the people
who are already so heavily over
burdened by taxes. Moreover, the in
crease of Japanese taxation is accom-
panied by an increase in the price of
living. so that all the staple foods are
higher than ever before Yet, in spite

In an interview the other day Pro-
lessor G. Stanley Hall. the well known
education expert, condemned the study
of Greek and Latin in the secondary
schools. In his statement as given to
the newspapers there were 200 words
ana a little examination shows that
about 40 of these. or 90 per cent, are of
Latin origin or of Greek origin coming
through the Latin. This simple state
ment suggests some very pertinent
queries regarding the attitude taken
by Professor Hall
