SAYS IMMIGRATION. .
IS LEAGUE ISSUE
Senator Poindexter, Citing
Japanese Ambassadors
Speech, Attacks Draft.
ENDORSES THE ENTENTE

Taking as his text the address de-
Viscount Ishii, at the meeting of the
Japan Society in New York with re-
gard to the question of racial dis
elimination in immigration, Senator
Poindexter of Washington issued a
statement last night in which he de-
clared that the league of nations as
now proposed will have power to deal
with the question of immigration and
that the Japanese statesman recog-
nized that fact. Senator Poindexter
said the statements of the President,
Senator Hitchcock and others to the
effect that the league had no power
to deal with the question were not
correct, and proceeded to set forth his
reasons for this assertion.
Says Japanese Differ.
Evidently the Japanese authorities
dent and Senator, Hitchcock)," said
senator Polndexter, 'and very sensibly
decline to become a member of the
league unless there is an express pro-
hibltlon of national or racial discrimi-
nation in immigration matters.
lnlS statement of VlScOunt 1Shii
shows that the intelligent japanese
people are not willing to transfer
from the Japanese people and govern
ment to league dominated by
foreigners, the decision and control
of their most vital interests. This is
a most intelligent and statesmanlike
attitude to assume. 1t also indicates
an intelligent appreciation of the con-
sequences Of the proposed constitu-
tion for a world government, not
withstanding the interpretations
placed upon its plain language BY
some Of its authors. 1t is a well
known rule of construction that in
struments of government must be
given the effect which their terms
plainly indicate, whatever may be the
mental reservations or verbal ex-'
plantations of their authors

Estimated 10000 File Returns.

Although difficult to make even a
rough estimate of the number of re-
turns made by persons living in
Washington and the aggregate
amount of taxes paid into the Treas
ury by them. those engaged in receiv-
ing the returns at Sth and G. streets
seemed positive last night $4,000 re-
turns were made by persons living in
the District. OF this numbes more
than $4,000 were for incomes not
greater than $4,000. it is estimated.
The Sth and G street office issued
10000 blanks of the 10-40A form,
which were for persons with income es
under $4,000. The number of blanks
for those persons with larger incomes
was relatively small The largest in
dividual tax received yesterday
amounted to $4,000 Several amount
ing. to $4,000 and $4,000 were received,
and there were quite number of 81, 900
payments
The principal difficulty in arriving
at some estimate of Washington's s
showing in the payment of this tax
was the fact that many of the returns
were mailed direct to the internal rev.
enue collector in Baltimore.
There was surprisingly large
number of woman taxpayers. It is
estimated that out of every five
payers two were women. There were
many very young men and women.
and a number of colored men and
women.
