WAR HITS JAPANESE
POOR HARD BLOW

Japan Is a busy nation today. but
not as prosperous as thousands OF
Americans think. The war has laid
a heavy hand on the poorer classes,
Japan stands ready to strike at the
Germans whenever opportunity Offers.
These are the important points OF
a message brought to this country by
Lawrence Mott. Of the Japanese and
Serbian Red Gross, who is visiting in
Washington.
"Since landing IN America some
time ago." said Mr.. Mott, 81 have
heard remarks TO the effect that
Japan is enormously enrIching herself
out Of war profits. This is arrant non
sense. The steamship companies are
making money, but taxation has in
creased and the poorer Classes are Up
agsinst IT,
The japanese ere not MAX ing
money out OF this wa, and they are
ready to do what thev can and seems
most advisable from the viEwpuin; OF
the allies, TO attain tho vital end Of
the Germans most thor
ouEhly.
The absorbing ambition OF Nis-
count Ishii. the Japanese ambas sadOr
20 the United States, is 10 draw this
nation and the Jspanese people into 4
closer understanding 50 that the cry
OF yellow peril" III be heard On
these shores no more"
