JAPANESE DISASTER
WILL HAVE TELLING
EFFECT ON NATION
New York Jap Colony Be-
wildered at Blow That
Shakes Empire.
BY ROBERT t. SMALL.

Copyright. by the San Antonio LiBht'
New York, Sept. 5.-The great
Japanese colony in New York was
more than ever bewildered today by
the blow which has fallen upon their
kingdom in the East.
Striving in vain for direct commu-
nication with relatives, friends and
mercantile connections, they could
only conjure up from the spasmodic
press dispatches the picture of what
has happened.
Prominent japanese with whom
the correspondent talked today see in
the disaster far more than any mere
statement of property damage or fig
ures as to loss of life can convey.
They see the entire kingdom lit.
orally shaken to its foundations and
the japanese people facing the great
est test of their history.
The modern life of the empire prac-
tically conferred in Toxic and Yoko-
hama which apparently have been
wiped from the face of the earth.
The japanese are stoical, fatalis-
Their elasticity has never been sub
jectcd 10 such strain as has now be-
fallen them and the representatives
of the country in New York feel that
much of Japan's position in the
world of the future will depend upon
how quickly and how well she "comes
back" from stroke of ill-fortune
greater than that ever directed
against a modern people.
The great channels of commerce
have been destroyed, a loss which
cannot be estimated as easily as the
damage in mere brick and stone and
steel.
Shocked as they are by the un-
imaginable reports of loss of life,
with pictures of the dead in great
heaps in the open spaces and market
squares. local Japanese are bordering
the greater fate of their nation.
The way back to anything like nor
NAL activity, they realize, is long and
tedious.
Japan has not been any too pros
porous in the years that have fol-
lowed the war.
She was not prepared for the sur
den end of the world conflict.
Her business program envisaged a
longer struggle.
She now faces a struggle which
would try the heart and courage OF
the bravest and most resourceful peo-
pie.
They will also come out of it with
the outpouring sympathy of world
which. perhaps, had looked just n lit
tie askance at the military and naval
ambitions Of this leader of the Orient
al nations.
Today she faces a task at home
which will stretch out over the years
the rebuilding of her capital and
her chief commercial city.

BALTIMORE. May THE sug.
gestion of the Maryland tax revision
commission that an income tax for
the state might be a good thing has
created furry among the wealthy.
Fear is expressed that the proposed
tax might have the effect of driving
capital out of the state. and that
those most able to pay 1t might evade
it by moving elsewhere, leaving the
burden to be borne by those who
could not get away.
Frank A. FurSt, a member of the
municipal tax commission, said he
favors the principle of a state in
come tax. but that he did not know
whether it would work in Maryland.
He said he had not given the matter
consideration. although the subject
had been discussed tentatively at a
meeting of the commission along with
other methods of taxation.
For Any Workable Plan.
Il would be in favor of any method
of taxation" Mr.. Furst said. that
would be workable; that would not
drive Industries from the state and
that would take the tax burden off
the poor man and put it on the rich
man, where it belongs. Whether an
income tax law would be a good
thing for Maryland as a state l do
not know.

public service commission, also said

State Income Tax Proposal

The federal government" said Mr.:
which reaches pretty nearly all the
people, so there would be very little
difficulty in making out state income
tax returns. There would have to be
checking up. and there are num-
her of objections that could be raised
against such tax. Nevertheless, it
would make for the fairest possible
distribution of the tax burden. and
the principle of the proposed tax Is
correct.
Several expressed the opinion that
business men generally might oppose
the law because they did rot want
other business men to know the
amount of their incomes. The knowl-
edge, 1t was argued, of what a man 3
income might he for any one year
might affect his credit seriously.
This objection was met, 1T was con-
tended, in the collection Of federal

Virginia Workman Blown Up
While Carrying Dynamite.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
WINCHESTER, Va, May THE
body of Robey NJ. Henderson, killed
Friday afternoon by a dynamite ex-
plosion near Vaucluse, this county,
was inferred this afternoon.
Henderson was one Of Il large num-
ber of men employed by the Northern
Virginia Power Company on work of
constructing a new high-tension cleo
trio line to Strasburg, Va, and was
digging holes for immense poles.
Some blasting had to be done. When
last seen alive he was carrying two
sticks Of dynamite, a box of detona-
tion caps and an electric battery. EX-
perts say that while Henderson was
walking across a meadow he may
have experimental with the appara-
tus by placing the battery wire in
contact with a cap and turning the
switch. Others thought the switch
probably already was turned on, and
that the wires struck against the
caps.
