DESTRUCTION IF PACIFIC EORTS |S URGED BY PAN
Nippon Sees Epoch Making Era Dawning in Meeting
 on Disarmament

TC;<IO, Aug. 6.-(By the Associat- e[1 Press )-While the powers are dis cussing the program for the proposed conference at Washington, the trend of public opinion continues in the di- rection of regarding the conference as an epoch making effort to reduce unrenumerative expenses and reach a practical understanding on the needs and wishes, of the nations. This is evident despite the reiterated fears of some publicists that Japan will have the place of a "chopping board'' at Washington.
 Constructive suggestions are being made while the idea is beginning to take hold that reduction of border armaments would permit Japan to improve commercial development in Asia, particula<fy in China. by divert ing to industry the wealth spent on warships.
 Some of the latest newspaper com. ment indicates how certain Japanese circles are convinced that the con- ference should be seized as an oppor tunity for the consideration of mat ters vitally affecting the empire's economic future.
 After recommending the destruc [ tion of the naval and military equip ments of the northern Pacific islands of Ponin, Liu-Kiu, and the Pescar dores and Hawaii, Guam and the Philippines, the Oska Mainichi Shim bun urges inSistence on equal oppor tunity throughout the world, estab lishment of the principle of economic ! freedom by equitable distribution ot raw materials, free migration of the races, with the guarantee of freedom of labor and protection. the sover

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6. - Midnight racing of immigrant laden steamers into American harbors to land month ly quotas in the first minutes of the first day of new months may be done away with Monday when ship line officers and immigration officials get together to formulte new agreement

RIGA, Aug. 6.-(By the Associated Press)-The Russian public so far is apparently ignorant that the question of the release of American prisoners Is involved in famine relief, as Mos COW newspapers received today make no mention of the Totes of Secreta- ries Hoover and Hughes.
 These newspapers. however, report famine conditions are growing worse particularly among children, 30r.000 of whom in the Volga district are re- ported by M Lunarcharsky, a leader in the Soviet relief measures, to have been abandoned by their parents to the care of the state. He is reported to have declared that this action will furnish better plea for the carrying out of the Soviet plan of nationaliza' ton of children. William D. Hay. wood, American Industrial Worker of the World leader, apparently has changed his mind about returning to America. according to an arrival here He expects to assist in the relief work. he said.

RAILROADS ARE
 RULED AGAINST

WASHINGTON, Aug. G. Cost of labor allowances to railroads for the six months guarantee period follow ing government control will include only increased wages and not "alleg- ed inefficiency of labor" factors un- der a decision handed down today by the interstate commerce commission.
 The ruling involves the basis of claims by the railroads against the government for labor costs in opera. tion and maintenance,
 The contract language under dis pute follows:
 During federal control, the. direct or general shall annually, as-' nearly as practicable. expend and charge to railway operating expenses, either in payments for labor and materials or by waving into funds, such sums for the maintenance, repair. renewal, re. tirement and depreciation of the prop erty as may be requisite that such property may. be returned to the company in substantially as good repair and in substantiallys as complete equipment as it was on Jan uary 1. 1918"
 "The words cost of labor" the commission held, do not, we think open the door to a comparison of the quality or efficiency of labor. Tc hold otherwise would be contrary to the plain intent of the proviso, for it Is impossible to determine the rela tive efficiency of labor at various periods and the introduction of thi: indefinite and intangible factor would have relegated the accounting test to the very limbo of controversy and conflict of opinion which it was designated to avoid.
 ''If it had been the intent to include the factor of quality or effectiveness or efficiency, whatever it may bt termed. this would have been done in apt and unmistakeable language and not by the strained construction of phrase susceptible of simple in | depreciation"

REPEAL EXCESS
 PROFITS TAXES
 BY HOUSE SO0N ! SEEMS CERTAIN
Corporation Income Tax to be Increased From Ten
 to Fifteen Per Cent PREDICT QUICK ACTION Fordney Says New Bill Will be Ready in Ten Days if
 Snags Not Encountered

WASHINGTON. Aug. 6. - Majori- means committee expect to get down to the brass tacks of tax revision next week.
 Chairman -Fordney said today that the rewriting of levy provisions in the 1918 law probably would begin Mon- day and that unless an unexpected snag was encountered, the new bill should be ready in 10 days. Leaders generally say house consideration will require only a few days.
 The work before the Republican committeeman is to determine the ex- tent of the cuts possible and just where they are to be made. The gen. eral belief seems tS be that the com mittee bill will propose repeal of the excess profits tax, but the effective date remains to be determined.
 As a substitute for the excess prof its tax, it is planned to increase the corporation incomet aX from 10 per cent to 15 per cent, and also to repeal the $2,000 exemption allowed corpor- ations. Chairman Fordney said to- AOWOfCl, ludI l4lSIt De L~sScS- sary to make some specific provision in the bill to relieve. the burden it has been claimed this would impose on the small corporations.
 He also disclosed proposal to write into the bill a provision taxing the income of the so-called personal service corporations, such as archi. tectural firms not Incorporated, the same as the income of other corpora tions. The Supreme court has held that the present law. is not applicable to such concerns.
 Fordney also said. it was not pro. posed to relieve public service cor porations from a part of the 15 per cent income tax pro&ision of the bill
 Aside from revisi Nn of these levy sections, the minds bf many commit tee members aret urhed to a repeal of the higher income shrtaxes, of all or part of the transportation taxes and of the fountain ice cfeam levy. How ever, the actual refsions are yet to be agreed upon wiEh indications oi some fights in the 9pmmittee.

Campbell Proposes to Try
 and Organize Savings Reserve For State

PHOENIX, Ariz., John R. Norton, chairman of the committee of tax payers that/sent a petition to Cover nor Thomas E Campbell, asking him to call a special session of the leeis- lature to consider reductions in ap- propriations made by the last legis- lature, tonight expressed his satisfac- ton with the governors decision not to call such session, but to urge de- partment heads to establish ''sav- ings reserve"
 The governor announced his decis- ion in letter to Norton. The letter was made public today at the office of the governor.
 In his letter to Norton, the gover- nor said he would call conference of executive officers, heads of de- partments in the state, government and state institutions, at an early date flor the purpose of presenting to them the present finance condi- tion of the state with especial refer euce to the existing situation in which we find ourselves with regard to tax paying ability, and in order tn call to their serious consideration the responsibility which rests upon them and uron me, hopeful that they will observe their responsibilities as worthily as l am endeavoring to ob- serve mine. At the conference I am hopeful of obtaining from them a pledge to inaugurate savings re- serve, which, if adhered to with thu
 integrity which believe exists among all the officers of the state. will become in the nature of a cash credit as we'll as a credit for integ- r.if cnr~ -fnn nd s..1. , will be reflected noticeably in the budget for 1922"
 The governor wrote that he had had replies from nearly all the heads . of departments and state institutions and that they were almost unanimous in declaring that only very small re- auctions could be made in their ap- f propriations without crippling their work. Some could be made. he said. | The members of the legislature, he
 said, expressed willingness to con ! vene in special session if the reduc- ! tions to be made at such a session ' could be made without interfering with the progress of the state. i The governor estimated that re- : auctions could be made in the budget i for next year as follows:
 Tn departmental expenditures for ] salaries, wages and contingent ex- penses. S1O0.300: in 45 various funds and by elimination of 13 specific ] items. S310.430: return to general ! fund of three former appropriations as yet unused. S95.000: total S505.730. The taxpayers committee had recom-
 mended reductions of $1,500,000.

 reduction would be obtained through

LOS ANGELES, Aug. G. Arthur c. 6ureh. of Evanston, Ills, was talk en into custody at Las Vegas, Neva- da, tonight in connection with the murder of John B. Kennedy. Burch was taken from an eastbound train for return to Los Angeles.
 LOS ANGELES. Aug. 6. - The shooting of J. B. Kennedy, young in- surance broker, continued today to baffle members of the police and the sherifrs force. Kennedy was shot from ambush last night as he was about to entev his summer cottage in Beverly Glen where he had been ac- companied by Mrs. Madeline Ober- chain. a young divorced woman.
 Mrs. Oberchain screamed the alarm when Kennedy fell. and was taken to the police office in Beverly Hills where she told of the shooting. She was then taken to the Los Angeles county jail where she made brief signed statement and was held at a material witness. Today, at her own request. she was taken to the scene of the shooting. She told the sheriff she thought she might throw more tiSnt on tne aIldir IT Sne couiu gu over the ground.
 Volunteer witnesses brought vari- ous stories of Kennedy's recent life to the authorities. and these were being investigated although received with little hope that they would lead to solution.
 An inquest over the body of Ken nedy will be held. it was announced, but the date will await completion of lrcliminarv innuiries
