FRISCO TO PUT ON
SHUTTLE SERVICE
Transportation Problem for
Durbar and Fair is
Now Solved.

Tho Frisco railroad will operate
shuttle trains between Tulsa and the
fairgrounds during the Oklahoma
Durbar and free Tulsa county fair the
week of September l3.
Announcement to this effect was
made yesterday by c. O. Jackson Of
Oklahoma City, division passenger
agent of the Frisco. in a letter to N.
Il. Graham, secretary OF the fair as
sociation.
1t was welcome news to the fair
people, as the transportation problem
had given them much worry. The
Tulsa Street Railway company lines
do not run within four blocks Of the
fairgrounds entrance, and the jitney
situation is uncertain to say the least.
The Frisco however realizes that
enormous crowds will attend the fair
and Durbar, and accordingly made ar
rangements for the shuttle trains,
which will be run at brief intervals
and at a nominal fare, probably 10
cents each way.
The shuttle train service given by
the Frisco during the International
Dry Farming congress two Years ago
was splendid. 1t interfered with
switching operations on the road. and
the same trouble will be experienced
this time. but the Frisco is determined
to meet the emergency as best it can.
The Frisco runs direct to the entrance
of the fairgrounds.
All of the buildings have been re-
rooted, the grounds have been graded
and will be sOwn to oats in the near
future and walks will be laid out.
The building which will be devoted
to an automobile show has been re-
served in its entirety. local auto deal

JAPANESE TRADERS UPSET
OVER CHINESE BOYCOTT
Extensive Plans Are Being Formu-
lated in Cities to Overcome
Retaliatory Movement.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
TOXIC, July 5.-The retaliatory boy
colt in China against the japanese be-
cause of Japan's demands on China has
caused profound concern throughout
the empire, and extensive plans are
being formulated to overcome the
movement. Japanese merchants are
beginning to complain at heavy losses
in trade. and thoughtful leaders in
various walks of japanese life are wor-
ried over where the Chinese hostility
will end. and over how it will affect
the future relations Of the two coun-
tries.
The chamber of commerce of Osaka,
which is a very progressive body, has
already organized special commission
whose assignment is the elimination
of the Chinese boycott by friendly
propaganda and the advancement of
Japan's trade interests in China. The
commission will also investigate the
possibilities of economic developments
as result of the new treaties with the
government of Peking.
The members of the chamber will be
dispatched to all important parts of
China. The first party will visit Mon
golia and that part of South Manchuria
which has not yet been explored. "A
second group will tour north China aRd
a third the south. Other chambers of
| commerce are joining the movement.
Adopting the American custom, the
Japanese business men mean to get in
| personal touch with the Chinese, find
| out what the trouble is all about, and
then try to find the proper remedy.
| They will try to prove that the inter
ests of China and Japan are identical.
Another project more sentimental in
| character is the sending of parties of
school children to China to visit with
| the school children of that country.
, Still other plans receiving considera-
| tion are those to arrange a Chino-Japa-
nese exhibition, and to esta blish a
| Chino panese bank.
! The exhibition project is favored by
business men generally. and is sup
ported by the department of agricul-
! ture. A bill providing for the founding
of the bank will probably be introduced
| into the next session of the diet.

WAR PROFIT TAX HIT.
Dresden Committee Declares Pro-
posed Assessment Is Not Feasible.
Ience OF the Associated Press

Correspondence or the Associated Press.
DRESDEN, Germany, July 2O.-A
committee appointed by the Dresden
Chamber of Industry to study the prob
lem of taxing war profits has reported
that such a tax is not feasible. because
it cannot be equitably assessed.
While expressing the view that in
principle a war profit tax would pc rea
sonable and justified, the committee
notes that in carrying the proposal
into effect it would be necessary to
consider in the case of each individual
concern the loss entailed by its not
having been able to dispose of goods
manufactured before the war. the ex-
pense of converting it's plant to war
purposes and the difficulty of resuming
its normal business when peace is re-
stored, In these circumstances the
real war profits could only be fixed
accurately long after the end of the
war.

Col. Young was asleep when the ex-
plosion occurred, but, seeing that the
boat was settling, he sprang into the
icy waters, and, being good SWIM

prison ills. trusted to reach shore, but
soon found that the odds were against
him. He was in a mass of dead bodies
and found that by ceasing any enort

had f1oated for what seemed to him
hours he saw the lights of Memphis,
but was unable to reach the shore.
He lapsed into INCONSISTENCIES and
rememb ered nothing more until the
afternoon of April 81, when he was res
