BRIDGE CONNECTION
WITH CHINCOTEACUE
Private Capital Engaged in the
Enterprise, Which Will Cost
About S150.000.

George W T. Miller, executive officer
of the local u. s. District Engineer ;
office. has returned from Chincoteague,
Va. where he made an inspection of the
bridge being built 20 connect the main
land with the island Mr. Miller spoke
in terms of the highest praise of the
enterprise Of the people in financing and
building this long bridge. The structure
is being built by private company and
toll will be charged
4 special act Of Congress was passed 10
permit its construction, as II passes over
Interstate waterways The bridge and
the accompanying roads arc about =
miles IN length.
A draw will be built over the main
channel and over the secondary channel
there will be high trestle, which will
permit of the passage Of oyster boats
On the intervening islands, where the
road will be, embankments are now being
thrown up by dredge for their protec-
tIon.
The work was started last March and
about so per cent of the embankment
has been completed. 1t IS expected to
have the road open to travel by July 4.
1921. From the point at the mainland
where the bridge touches, there is a road
and Norfolk railroad. This road will
be Strengthened and improved. When
completed it viii be possible TO go TO
LIE Cato by express and then by automo-
bile over to ChineOteague. Formerly
small boat was used for the trip over TO
the island. a distance of about six miles,
which in stormy weather often was un-
comfortable. This boat ran from Frank
lin City, which was reached by branch
line
Capital from Chincoteague and from
people on the mainland is, being used
for the construction, which will cost
about S150.000 Upon the completion
of the bridge to Chincoteague it is planned
to build one from Chincoteague to Assa-
league making the ocean shore accessible
by automobile and making possible the
of resort and the building
of hotel at that place.
Captain j. b. Wheaton of Chlnco-
league and Florida has been the moving
spirit Of the great improvement and is
the construction. On the
two islands Of Chincoteague and Assa-
league there are about 5000 inhabitants
This section in the past few years has
been unusually prosperous, the white
potato industry having been big factor.

TO FIGHT RISE IN H.C.L.
FROM FREIGHT INCREASE
Department of Justice Holds Lever
Act Confers Power
TO Act.

Washington. Aug. 2-Officials Of the
Department OF Justice are prepared to-
day 70 take up the question OF the in
creases IN the costs of living which. II
has been freely predicted, would follow
the increase IN ght rates granted
Yesterday TO the always BY the Inter
state Commerce Commission
IL was said by fl 'ials Of the depart
ment that there WIS sufficient law to
deal with any add ID price placed on a
commodity IN excess Of the freight rate
increase.
Investigators Of the department. in
connection with their inquiries into
profiteering. have already established
the base prices of most commodities
and can easily determine when the pro-
ducer. the wholesaler or the retailer is
lndulging in prohteering under the gllse
Of increasing the price to absorb the in
creased freight rate.
An official said that Attorney-General
Palmer had already considered this
situation and would get information
which would enable the Department of
Justice TO act promptly if commodity
prices were enlarged beyond the neces-
sary increased freight rate charges. In
the absence of Mr.. Palmer, who is spend
ing the Wtek-ehu III MS nome IN StrOuuS-
burg this official in his office declined
70 explain the plans that would be fol-
lowed by the department to prevent
gouging when the freight rate increase
becomes effective
Experts for the Interstate Commerce
Commission have been ordered to work
out wherever possible the exact amount
Of freight rate for different commodi-
ties in the several zones. This infor-
nation will be made public about Septem-
Der ! and may prevent the retailer and
Others from increasing the prices on neces-
sarIes beyond the actual cost to him as
represented in the freight rate increase.
The opinion of those who have fol-
lowed the investigations into high prices
and prohteering only an aroused public
sentiment will be effective in keeping the
prices within iustihable limits

LOOK ON AMERICAN
NOTE AS CHALLENGE
Japanese Resent Representations
on Occupation of Island Of
Saghalien.
BY Associated Press to Every Evening

BY Associated Press to Every Evening
Toxic, Aug. 2)The American note
dealing with Japan's occupation of the
northern part of the island of Saghalin ap-
pears to have made an unpleasant i'm.
preston generally upon the japanese
but the hope is expressed that the govern
ment will be able TO convince. the United
States that the occupation is only Of q
temporary character.
The newspapers, in their comment
are adopting In the main three lines
OF opinion.
The first represented by the kokumin
Shimbun, is that Americas attitude to-
ward Japan is always in the nature of a
challenge
The second, voiced by the Yomi-
9uri Shimbun, is that the Japanese mill
tarists are to blame for what it declares
is the misconception abroad abont Japan.
The third, expressed by the conser-
vative Jill Shimpo, is that the occupation
of Russian territory by Japan constitut-
ed doubtful policy, liable to cause diff
ficultics both at home and abroad
After pointing out that japan had
Gle arly stated it had no territorial am
bitions, the Yom- Y uri Shimbun continues:
"lt is regrettabe however, that the
VI hitt tbtfhitSt GONti
are often not taken seriously. The powers
regard Japan as country which doesn' :
mean what it says. The most important
reasons for this will be found in the actions
of the militarists, whose utterances are
tn cause of the governments attitude
being misunderstood abroad. Unless the
mlitarist evil is stamped out, hundred
declarations disavowing territorial am
bitions will not be able to convince the
powers.
ThS Jill Shmpo's view is that America
will come 20 appreciate Japan's position
If the latter succeeds IN making il clear
that the occupation is not TO be permanent
I'nhappily, however, il points out, ia
pans hesitation over the withdrawal Of
its troop from Siberia gave the powers the
idea that Japan was seeking something
Owing 10 the improbability that re-
sponsible government will appear in
Russia for long time to come, the Jiii
says it forsees n long occupation Of Sag
halin, and predicts that the government
decision in this matter viii cause difficulties
not only of diplomatic, but Of domestic
character, and will affect the interests of
the state for considerable period
General Soiiro Kojima, who command
ed the Japanese gendaumerie in Korea
during the insurrection, has been select
ed TO organize and command the army
