Seattle Labor Leader Says Unions Have no Interest
 In Immigration
rAssoo:at>d Pyess zee.ed w:re,


 TOCOMA, Wash. Aug. 2 - Defin. ite location of the underground system" on the Pacific coast by which thousands of Japanese ar smuggled into the United States yearly was announced here today by Congress- man Albert Johnson, chairman of the house subcommittee on immigration and naturalization which reassembled here today to investigate the Japan csc activities in the northwest.
 The Japanese associations in the various cities make no record for gov ernment observation of any of these unlawful entries into the country" Congressman Johnson continued.
 We have not been able to find one secretary of Japanese association who can furnish us with any informa- tion as ho wvarious members of his association came into the country As a matter of fact We are positive that these organizations are aiding in tr1 surreptitious entry of Japanese no the United States.
 "We have found the records confus- ing as to the number of Japanese in the United States. As matter of fact, it would be impossible for us to take a correct census of the Japanese population because takers could not locate all of the Japanese here. Snuogle ThousandS
 These associations protect their countrymen who are smuggled in and We know it to be a fact. The United States authorities are perfectly cog zant of the route of this underground system of unlawful transportation and will take some action at once"
 Samuel Hill. capitalists of Seattle. the first witness, read a statement discouraging any legislation that would estrange Japan and the United. States or impair trade relations. He did not think the government of Jap- an is responsible for the smuggling of Japanese into this country.
 Replying to questions he said if the United States would "send a diplo- ting forth the conditions existing with regard to smuggling of Japanese. I am sure from my experience with the Japanese government officials that something would be done at once"
 Labor Not Interested
 MT Hill called as witness Frank Terrace, who is identified with or ganized labor in Seattle. who testified he did not believe labor was interest ed in the Japanese question.

 Meanwhile officials of the Cantu administration showed unwonted ac- tivity. hurrying about their duties in a temperature above 100 degrees.
 Enlistments were being carried on ; official statements, denials, counter statements and accusations followed in continuous procession; interested Americans joined in the discussions, and over all there was an air Of ten sion and expectation. Out of the mass of rumors, statements and counter charges there emerged a few salient facts. It was admitted that the Cantu government was rapidly augmenting it's military forces by en- listment.

RAILROAD. RATES WILL BE RAISED DURING AUGUST. T0 NEW TARIFFS
Prompt Action to be Taken to Stop Drain on Nations
 Treasury
GUARANTY EXPIRES
 SEPTEMBER FIRST
Total Cost to Railroads to Government Since 1917 is
 Billion and Half
Associated Press Leased WirD

WASHINGTON, Aug. ?. New passenger fares probably will become effective August 20 and advanced freight rates August 9, according to a program outlined tonight by A. P. Thom, general counsel for the Asso- citation of Railway Executives.
 Simultaneously, increases in Pull man, excess baggage and milg charg- es will also go in force.
 Railroad rate experts have begun preparing blanket rate schedules in- creasing transportation costs on per centage basis. These will be pre- sented to the Interstate Commerce Commission five days before the pro- posed effective date. Rate sheets will be supplemented by tariffs con taining rates for all territories and on all commodities as soon as the many details can be worked out. Until this is done local rail officials w,i, compute the new rates and charges for their territories by adding 20 per cent to existing rates.
 While this method would be unus, ual, rail officials pointed to the sug- gestion of the commission that the higher charges be put -1f force 'as early as practicable"
 By putting the increased rates
 into effect prior to September
 the drafting on the treasury under
 transportation act likely will be
 ended before expiration of the
 governments guarantee of earn
 inqs. Officials estimated roaay
 that by September the guaran-
 tee provisions would have cost
 the government approximately
 $65o, 900.
 The government has been obliged to continue $75,00OOOO monthly rem tai in effect during federal control and meet deficits, not covered by the rental amount, sustained by individ- ual carriers. Included in these defi- cits is that portion of the $500, ,000, ,000 wage award from May l to September l when the guarantee expires.
 This was officially estimated at S206,000,000. Thus the people will pay one-third of the increased wages for railroad employees in taxes.
 With the amount gained the car riers this year and the claims of the lines for compensation under their contracts with the railroad admins tration, the road will have cost the government approximately s1,500,- 000, 900 since December 2S, 1917.
 Operation of the roads after Sep tember 1, under the new rates will yield, according to experts, an annual return of about s1,5S0,000,O00. They believed the increased freight reve- nues would total s1,300, 100000 and the income from passenger traffic $2S3, 100000. Their estimates, it was explained, were based on the assump- tion that intrastate rates would be tn- creased correspondingly.
 Need for increases in intrastate rates was set forth in report for warded today to state railway and public utility commissions by the three state commissions who sat with the Interstate Commerce Con- mission during the hearings of the rate case.
