Greatest Disaster in His- tory of Scottish Col lieries Occurs Early To- day Near Falkirk
Waters Break Through Ad- joining Wall From Aban- doned Mine-Only One Man Succeeds in Escaping
By The Associated press.

By The Associated Press.
 Glasgow, Sept. 25.-Seventy lives are believed to have been lost early today in one of the worst colliery disasters in the history of the Scotch mines when a deep pit at'the James Nimmo Company's colliery near Falkirk was flooded.
 Only One Escapes
 The water which flooded the pit broke through the walls of an adjoining pit which had not been used for many years. The active pit was flooded so quickly that there was no opportunity to warn the miners. They had no chance to get to the pithead and one one man escaped after the thrush of water began.
 Frantic relatives of the vic- tims rushed to the pithead at which rescuers hastily began work but little hope was enter tained of saving any of the un- fortunates.

ARTICLE X. TROUBLE '
Proposed Resolution for Interpreta- tion Is Rejected for Lack of . Unanimous Vote Today.

By The Associated Press.
 Geneva. Sept. z5.--The proposed resolution for the interpretation of Article x. of the league of nations covenant was rejected by the sleague assembly in plenary session today. Persia alone voted against the resolu- ton but unanimous vote was neces- sary to obtain the assembly's ap- proyal.~
 The resolution provided that the constitutional authorities of each state alone should have the right to, determine to what extent military as- sistance should be accorded other na- tions if their integrity were threat ened.
 The Canadian spokesman favored the resolution and the French repre- sentative, Prof. Joseph Barthelemy in an informal address also approved 1t. The Frenchman remarked that the impression existed among some of the delegates that with Article X. thus interpreted the entrance of the United States into the league might be has, tened If so, he added, it was so much the better.

JAPAN WELL OFF EVEN
 WITH BILLION LOSSES
Per Capita Debt But S3S Now, Compared to S211
 for U. S.; S733 for Eng.

Washington, Sept. 25.--Japan's fin. nancial loss in the recent earthquake disaster averages about SIS per capita of it's population, it was estimated to. day by the Far Eastern division oi the commerce department. The dam age to industry considering the total capacity of the manufacturing and producing establishments of the coun- try was estimated to be even less pro- portionately.
 Material damage amounts to $1,- 0,O00,0oO in the department figures. If the Japanese nation adds that amount to it's present public debt of $1,913.o 100000 its total per capita in- debtedness will be about s38 as com pared with per capita indebtedness for the United States of s211 and Great Britain of s733.
 The cotton spinning industry To- cated largely in the earthquake zone sustained the most serious property destruction, about 500,e00 cotton spindles or between ten and fifteen per cent being entirely destroyed.
 Japanese silk production will be little hampered, the estimates contin- ued. Though 10000 bales of raw silk in Yokohama were destroyed and used in testing and hand ling silk shipments was damaged the producing area where the silk worms are cultivated was only slightly af-' fected Tn a short time shipments of silk will probably be resumed.
 It was further pointed out That 75 per cent of the material loss was rep resented in the labor costs of con- struction The department predicted that the increased efforts of the Jap anese would compensate largely for +,
