ENORMOUS DEMAND FOR
TIN PLATE IN JAPAN

Toxic, CBy mailJ IN view OF the
present shortage Of tinplate, as a re-
suit of the insufficient supply from
abroad, the government iron foundry
at Yawata, Kyushu, will shortly start
the manufacture of this metal.
In 1916 the United States, the prin-
cipal exporter, supplied from 10000
to $1,000 pounds of tin plate to Japan
and in 1917 about $4,000 pounds
Though the supply from abroad will
possibly become greater, 1t will not
be enough to satisfy the enormous
demand in Japan.

EVERYBODY EFFECTED BY
INCOME TAX LAW
Farmers Particularly Hit By War
Chiefs Order.

Washington. d. c.. Nov 26.-
(SpeciaD Men of draft age who an
swered their questionaires fully.
particularly with respect to their f..
nancial rating, must be careful when
the time comes for them to make
their income tax returns.
The reason for this is disclos-
ure that sometime ago the war de-
partment issued an order permitting
income tax officials of the treasury
department TO have access to all
questionaircs.
In each queJtionaire the regis
trant was compelled to answer the
amount of his annual income and the
amount Of that which he contributed
to the support OF his dependents.
Thus there Is available for the treas
ury department in the case OF many
millions who registered, but who
have not served in the army, a rec
ord to check against the income tax
returns when they are made for the
next tax assessment.
Farmers OF the country are said
to be particularly aroused over the
revelation that their questlonaires
are being scrutinized by income tax
agents for the reason that few farm
ers heretofore have paid income taxes
but that in order to make a good
food production showing they record
ed their earning in real size.
