Wilson Does Not Want to
Interfere But Not Averse
to Counseling Against
Any Dangerous Laws.

Washington, D. c., April 14.-Presi-
dent Wilson, talking Informally today
about pending land legislation in Cali
fornia, construed by the Japanese gov
ernment as offensive, indicated that
since his last talk with Viscount
Chinda the ambassador from Japan,
some changes had been made in the
proposed laws which might quite solve
the situation The president added,
however, he did not know Japan s view
of the alterations.
The president said he had no right
to intervene against the undoubted
constitutional powers OF the state of
California, but that as an individual,
and also as president, in view Of his
relations to foreign countries in the Of
fice he was at liberty to seek counsel
in California and give intimation of
what he thought would be just. He
said he had been trying to do that In
as tactful and proper way as he could
and was not without hope that the leg
islation might be affected by his
course.
The president said he looked on the
situation as local one and that other
nations would not regard 1t as gen.
eral condition. He declared he had
the impression that Japan understood
the peculiarities Of the situation and
did not think the Japanese govern
ment ITSELF would take offense at the
legislation as finally drafted. He
thought the only fear was that a
strong national feeling might be
created in Japan but he had not heard
any intimations that Japan believed
the United States government at fault.
The president was asked what might
be his attitude in reference to new
treaty with Russia, the last having
been abrogated because American
Jews we're not accorded equal treat
ment with other American citizens
while travelling there. The president
replied he had not really entered into
the subject but that his aim would not
be to promise any more than the fed
eral government could deliver. He
said, however that the whole subject
would be deferred until an ambassador
to St. Petersburg was appointed.

WILL PROVIDE
. PLENTY FUNDS
FOR EDUCATION
Legislature Likely to Ap-
propriate Sufficient to
Meet Need Of State In
stitutions Of Learning.
lBY ORA WILLIAMs.i

Des Moines, April 14.--It is the In
tention Of the. legislature, so far as that
intent can be determined In commit,
tees, to give considerable appropria.
ton to the state board OF education fol
immediate use In rebuilding the burn
ed chemistry laboratory at Ames. A
committee of members visited the col
| 1lege and investigated and reported
that there was need OF d special ap
preparation. So in the resolution
which has been presented to the legis
lature approving plans for buildings
to be built by the board of education
there Is provision for q $260,000 build
ing for chemistry at the college, but
only $4,000 to come out the millage
taxes. The buildings approved are:
State university
New gymnasium .......... 1926, 900
Roof medical laboratory -. 10000
Chemical laboratory ....... 5000
Warehouse ............... 1900
New tunnel ............... 1900
Hospital kitchen .......... $4,000
State college
Chemistry building ........ $3.50, 200
Agricultural laboratory 49,. $4,000
Transportation building -. $4,000
Animal husbandry laboratory $4,000
State Teachers college
Woman's dormitory ....... 800, ,000
Manual Training building =. 100000
The resolution has not yet been
adopted by the legislature nor has the
.3160,00O special appropriation bill been
passed, but probably this will come
easy enough at the finish. The only
other appropriations the colleges will
get will refer to support funds.
The committees also plan to give
$4,000 for women's building at the
state fair, and probably some Of the
smaller sums needed for improvements
in the states property there.
Now with many Of the larger items
Of appropriations disappearing 1t will
be possible in day or two for the
committees to complete the budget OF
general appropriations. The large
item Of needs Of the state institutions
will disappear in millage tax, but an
appropriation will have to be made
for what is needed in the first year Of
the next bienniul, as proceeds OF the
millage tax will be slow In coming in
There will be no large appropriation
for the proposed twine making plant
at the prison, or for big prison farm
or the proposed epileptic colony, OF
the San Francisco exposition, or for 8
new state Office building. With these
larger items dropping out the problem
OF making the state expenditure con
form to receipts will not be so very
difficult.

machinists are now taking it apart.
The buildings will probably be used
for storage purposes"
The strikers, evidently regarding the
companys threat to move away as a
bluff, continued to jeer after the
whistle blew this morning and
marched away laughing when the
militia announced that the mill was
closed.
The city, however, has finally
awakened to the seriousness of It's in
dustrial situation and mass meeting
has been called for tonight In many
pulpits last night the labor agitators
were roundly denounced. Several
strikes are imminent in other In
dustries.

His promotion from 1ineman came
but recently and until the flood came
he was somewhat OF an unknown
quantity, an experiment, so far as his
superiors knew. The flood proved him
a big executive.

things at relief Headquarters over at
the National Cash Register plant, but
John Bell was the boss downtown.

Regarding the
Income Tax.

Considerable difference of opinion
exists among the leaders of the demo-
Gratis in congress as to what is to be
the amount below which incomes will
not be taxed. The sum most men
toned Is $4,000. although there is no
particular reason for fixing on this
figure arbitrarily.
The limit fixed by European nations
Is great dead smaller than any that
has been seriously considered in this
country Great Britain exempts in
comes under $3.50. Germany under 1925,
Austria under s11s and Italy under
s7T.2o.
These comparisons show that the
European powers are sorely IN need OF
money and that in some OF the coun-
tries all but the very poorest people
pay taxes on their incomes. Take the
case of Italy where the limit is SIT.
Were that amount fixed in America no
person who earns anything at all would
be exempt.
The democratic idea in America is
TO exempt the poor and those of mod
crate means. allowing the burden to
rest on people who are abundantly able
TO bear 1t. In most communities a man
with a $4,000 income Is considered
wealthy and that limit probably will be
fixed.

Dayton, Ohio, April s.-Every great
crisis, they say, develops a hero-some
man who stands out above his fellows
for the conspicuousness of his bravery
or devotion to duty in the hour of
greatest need. The great flood which
swept over Dayton last week developed
its hero in the person of John Bell
telephone operator.
For one entire week-when the
calamity was at its height-Ben slept
on an average of three hours out of
"a. His only food was stale bread and
coffee made from flood water, innocent
of q trace of sugar or milk.
Bell was in charge of the only wire
out of Dayton. He stood behind the
switchboard in the flooded Central
Union telephone building on Ludlow
street keeping Gov Cox in the state
house at Columbus, as well as the rest
of the outside world, in touch with the
situation, directing the efforts of the
Iinemen who were trying to rehabili-
tate the telephone system; advising
and helping the military men who ran
to him with their problems; assisting

The President In

Carrying critics continue to crop out

cupy his room in the capitol building
while congress Is In session. an inten-
ton on his part to NEEDLE with the
affairs OF congress; IN other words
to attempt to exert an undue or I'M
proper influence on legislation.
It may be well TO ask why was
the presidents room built? What was
1t made for If not to use? If the
president desires to come to the capt.
toll to confer with senators and rep
resentatives, there surely can be no
reasonable objection to it. In every

the same building and no one has ever

except the federal jurisdiction covers
larger territory.
In fact it has been a subject of
remark that the presidents offices were
not instituted at the capitol in the
beginning. AS it is. the White House
is nothing more nor less than an Office
building and until the new executive
offices were added to the building a
few years ago, the entire mansion was
given over to offices. The president
and his family do not have the privacy
in their home life they would desire.
For this as wei. as for other reasons,
it might be we'll to remove all the
executive offices to the national CAPT
toll building. where they unquestionably
belong.
