 Not Want War

Washington, July 6-The thinking people of Japan give no heed to talk of possible war between the United States and Japan, according to Prof. university, Tokio, who is here today consulting with leading American statesmen on the subject of limitation of armaments-
 There is war talk in Japan, just as there is in the United States Prof tributed to a minority of those who have imperia1istic plans for the de- veIopment of national power.'
 The great majority of the Japanese people are progressive and realize that peaceful negotiation is far more ed.
 Anti-American feeling exists in Ja- pan, the educator admitted. But he refused to consider this as perman- ent or a matter which can be given concern in considering the possible nations.
 Much of the ding which now exists between the United States and Japan could be wiped out by closer contact, the Professor be- 1ieves.
 Popular sentiment towards nrnita- toin of ornaments is growing apace in the Orient empire. the Professor declared, and it is being supported by the largest business interests National organizations such as Chambers of Commerce, which are much more influential in Japan than in America, approve the movement" he stated.
 While in the United States Prof. Suyehiro will seek to impress the de- sire of Japan for a speedy disarma- ment conference and that such a con- ference be held publicly.

Albany, Dec. rs.
New York State will save between
s7.oOO,ooo and $4,000. 900 in taxes II a
bill prepared by the State Tax Commits

measure was presented to tax confer
ence in Washington last week by Walter

Commission, and Commissioner Walter
H. Knapp. and has already been intro
duced in Congress. 1t would forestall
the possibility OF the loss to New York
State Of local taxes on national banks
because of a recent decision OF the
United States Supreme Court
The conference was called by Samuel
Lord, Tax Commissioner Of Minnesota,
president OF the National Tax Associa-

tives from twenty States. In addition
to Commissioners Law and Knapp New

be limited to the rate applied to "other

dividual citizens of the State imposing
the tax, and 1t Is upon the Interpretation
Of the words "other moneyed capital"
that several actions in the State have
been brought by national banks.
For fifty years these words have been
taken to mean competing capital, that Is

cision places New York States system
of taxing national banks under the ban.
The proposed amendment Of the Fed
eral statute prepared by the New York
Commissioners was introduced in Con-
gress Immediately. 1t would permit

SNAKES IN VICINITY
IMMUNE FROM GAS
Mustard Fumes VIII Not Be
Used on Innocent Species.

When the war drum throbs no longer
and the hand grenade and the Big
Bertha are laid aside, there will still
bo employment for mustard gas. 1t is
great for killing snakes.
This discovery was made known by the
Government yesterday. 1t seems that
out near the town of Husum. Wash.
there is a huge bed of lava rock whose
crevices for years innumerable have
housed thousands of rattlesnakes. All
tive usual methods of exterminating them
had been tried without result.
The Department of Agriculture decided
to try something new. IT borrowed from
the army several containers of mustard
gas. These were released in the lava
bed through a hose $50 feet long. In a
few minutes the rocks began to disgorge
snakes They ranged from infants with
out button or rattle to grandfathers
oisht or nine feet long. Many were
blinded by the gas and all were dazed
Men and boys advanced with clubs and
ea silly killed them.
The result of this experiment has been
reported at headquarters of the Second
Army Corps on Governors Island. There
it was said yesterday that IL 1t is found
practicable. mustard gas may be vp-
tained from the army laboratories to
wipe out snake nests in this territory.
But of course THE NEW YORK HERALD
asked Raymond i. Ditmars Of the Bronx
Geological Park what he thought about
It.
WELL" sail the herpetologIst, 'it is
true that out on the coast range there
are in some places large nests of rattlers
which do much harm, and 1 suppose
mustard gas would be a good thing to
use on them. But there are few poison
Gus snakes in the neighborhood of New
York. We hear of not more than one or
two snake bites year.
"Over In the Interstate Park there may
be a few rattlers and copperheads, but
the trouble is that you can't shoot mus
tard gas into their hiding places with
out also killing the harmless snakes and
the many small fur bearing animals that
1--we in the same sort of places that
sralses do. These animals are the life
OF the park. don't believe anybody
would want to see them gassed. No. /
shouldn't say the snake problem Is
scrious enough In these parts to warrant
attack by the chemical warfare division"

TENSE SCENE AT BIER
OF UNKNOWN WARRIOR
Mother Has Vision Her Son 10
Italys Honored Hero.

ROME, Dec. 25.--A dramatic incident
OF the funeral OF the Unknown Warrior
In Rome has just become known. On the
last night when the coffin was exposed
in the grand Church OF Santa Maria
degli Angeli. a poor old woman, who had
come from Venice, appeared at the
church and passionateiy impiored those
In command to allow her to see the form
within the coffin because, she declared
her dead soldier son had appeared TO
her in vision and had assured her that
his was the body buried in the sacred
receptacle.
Flinging herself on her knees she
cried Il implore you, for the love of the
Madonna, let me stay here ell night, and
then when all the people have gone away
you will surely let me look Just once
again on my own boy"
She was kindly and tcnderiy told that
her desire was impossible OF fulfilment
and 1t was with great difficulty that she
was persuaded TO leave the church.
