JAPAN THE CHALLENGER
Tilden, Johnston, Williams
and Washburn Likely to Be
Extended in Every Match.
BY SAMUEL J. BRooKMAN.

For the first time IN international
tennis history Japan stands as the
challenging nation for the Davis cup.
The Nlpponese players have come
through as the result OF defaults in
the first two rounds and two very
impressive Victories IN the semi-final
and final over India and Australasia re
spectively. They have earned their ad-
vance and in reaching the challenge
round have lived up to predictions.
with Ichiya Kumagae, third in
American tennis ranking, and zen2o
shimidzu, faalist in the British tennis
championship a year ago. as its repre-
sentatives, Japan had every reason TO
look for success in all tho Davis Cup
preliminaries. 1t was Japan's first year
IN the international event. but its tardi-
ness In Joining the field OF Davis Cup
contestants was not due to lack OF play
ing strength. 1t could not join. because
to be eligible under the conditions gov
erning the event, nation had to have a
recognized national tennis association.
and up to this year Japan had none.
Long before the elimination rounds IN
the Davis cup tournament We're begun
this wear our ablest critics, including
William 4. Tilden I'd. national and
worlds champion, predicted that the
Japanese were the most to be feared N
the international tennis event. On what
Kumagae and Shmidzu had accom-
plished 1t seemed perfectly logical con-
cluson. 1t was acknowledged that Brit
sh Isles and France could not hope (
check the Nipponese. and that II tht
after were beaten before the challenge
.ound tho Austraiasians would be tnt
cam to do 1t. Australasia s strength
vas more or less Of an unknown quan-
liv. as three OF the four men selected
had never played international tennis
tefore, while tho fourth, j. Q. Ander-
son, had played IN just one Davis cur
ournamcnt. Tho fact that Anderson
md Hawkes. had scored Victories ovey
Brookes and Patterson in home tourna-
nents led to the belief that they Were
capable of extending the best players

CHOP BIG SALARIES TOO

while every one is groaning over
high taxes. excessive wages and the
like writes a Reno county subscrib-
er. why not go after the fellows
like the president of the Federal Re-
serve Bank who receives s5O000 a
year and the directors who receive
$4,000 and large number of others.
Would 1t not help the common man to
submit to reduction if he knew the
big mans salary was being cut from
25 per cent to 60 per cent?"
There is no sort of doubt that such
reduction would have a most bene-
fetal effect 1t is argued by the men
who draw big salaries that if all their
salaries were divided up among the
masses of the people it would amount
to very little to any one person. and
that is undoubtedly true, but that does
not touch the point of objection.
The men drawing from $4,000 to
$4,000 or 100000 year IN salaries,
insist that men who are doing the
useful labor of the world for wages
or salaries ranging. perhaps. from $50
a month to $3.50 or $500, should sub
init willingly to reduction in pay.
They argue that these small salaried
men and women are now receiving
more wages or salaries than they for.
merly received and should be content
TO go back to the salaries received
before the war. The men receiving
these Moderate salaries or wages
feel, however, that they have as much
right to live comfortably and keep
their families comfortably as the men
who receive the huge salaries They
cannot be convinced that there. ought
to be so wide gap between what
they ought to receive for their ser
vices and what the high salaried men
receive.
But If there is valid objection &c
the heads OF privately owned concerns
receiving such high salaries there i:
more objection to public servants like
the head Of the Federal Reserve
Banking System or one of the direc
tors being paid huge salaries Thes,
Phillips County herald., 1921-12-09

high salaried men do not have to do
a great deal Of work nor do they have
to assume very great responsibility.
When member of the Presidents
cabinet only receives salary Of s12.-
600 year it is unreasonable that the
head of the Reserve Banking System
should receive $4,000 or that one of
the directors should receive 100000

Of which he was a devoted and valued
member. Standing In the rear of the
church, as there was an unusually
large congregation, he became much
interested in the sermon, when to his
horror there came a terrific bang, fol-
lowed by a deIuge of foam flying in
every direction; all eyes We're turned
his way and the sermon temporarily
discontinued while the erstwhle de-
vOut church member beat his hasty re-
treat amid the laughter Of the entire
congregation, having no opportunity to
explain th2t he was carrying home g

The recent discovery Of gold in the

the ancient tltbesmen of that coun-

gists. Although not noted as q gold
producing country, Ireland is one of
the greatest storehouscs Of antiqul-
ties In the world. 1t is Il literal mine
Of personal ornaments, implements,

with the sole exception Of the mu.
seums Of Scandinavia, there Is scarce
~ one European collection which
shows anything like so great q
wealth of personal ornaments made
OF the precious metal as Ireland" II
