TOXIC. January 23.-Japanese au-
thorities here have decided to occupy
with troops all Chinese barracks, fort
resses and other military establishments
in the Shanghai district in China unless
the Chinese authorities there meet Jap
anese demands.
The foreign Office and naval authori-

that, with the arrival late today Of ad-
6itional warships, Japan has a landing
force of approximately 1,7o0 at shang-
hal to protect japanese subjects in case
of emergency.
The demands which have been pre-
sented to the Chinese by the Japanese
consul general at Shanghai include dis
banding of anti-Japanese organizations,
which are held largely responsible for
the boycott against japanese goods and
the cessation of what Japan considers
other provocative steps sponsored by
these societies, and which. it is contend
ed here, the Chinese government never
seriously attempted to prevent.

BARCELONA TIED Up
BY REBEL STRIKERS
Demonstration Called Pre-

BARCELONA, Spain, January 23.-
Shops were closed, trolley cars stop
ped running and the streets of this
city we're deserted by all save soldiers
and police today as a general strike
was declared by the extremists respon-
sible for disorders during the past few
days in Catalonia.
The leaders described it as prelude
to a nationwide strike aimed at the
establishment of a republic, Soviet In
character.
The strike was called late last night
at a secret meeting OF the "Revolu-
tionary Committee" Workers who re-
ceived the order then did not report
at their jobs this morning and as the
word circulated factories closed, until
all industrial activities in the vicinity
were brought to a halt.
Police Force Doubled.
The police force was doubled, but
most of the regular troops and the civil
guard remained in barracks, prepared
for action II necessary. Thee de-
stoyers and other naval craft were in
the harbor.
In the nearby village of Pueblo Nuevo
a mob of strikers attacked detach-
ment of the civil guard, but was driven
off.
Reports from Manresa, where there
were serious fights earlier in the week,
said the situation there was quiet and
many small factories had resumed
operations although the large textile
mills were still idle. Two bombs ex-
ploded there this morning, but caused
little damage.
Modified at Malaga.
The government has modified police
and military forces throughout the An
dalusian region, particularly at Malaga,
Seville, Cordoba and Granada. The
strike at Malaga continued; at Seville
soldiers were posted on the rooftops
and civil guards patrolled the streets,
while several gunboats lay nearby in
the river.
Airplanes scared over the Seville
region scouting for strike gatherings.
Some of the strikers were back to
work at Corunna today, but business
was still tied up at Vigo, Santiago and
Villagarcia.

Any second I expected a trustee

I went home with a new idea
I was considering leaving Green
point. Our work was growing less
important since the public school
system had started evening classes
in domesti. science. Might not my
next VENT be among Negroes?
That was my last year at Green
point. 1 left more of 4 radical than
when / entered. Labor conditions
about me and the discussions at the
Social Reform Club had made me
a socialist though I did not join the
party for two years. I raj more
revolutionary than the workers with
whom I came IN contact. It was hard
to get them even to agitate fol-
shorter hours. They were afraid
of losing heir jobs.
The well-fed, whose jobs are not
precarious, IAN agitate for the poor.
But let their jobs be touched and
they are as conservative as any one
else. John Bright worke' fo- the

England, but his fathers money
was in industry and the son never

Greenpoint seems fa- away now.
I have kept up with a few of my
boys and girls but 1 never go back.
Another race, another group has alb
sorbed my attention. I learned a
lot living among working people but
I doubt whether I did much except
for a few individuals.
I could not change the economic
situation, and the things for which
I cared most, G%reenpoint did not
care for at all. Books were too

25, 900 Persons Pay Bulk of Taxes 3.
In This State, Says Hobbs Estimate
Additional Burdens Should Be More Equaby Distributed
He States in Graphic Financial Picture

The bulk of the tax burden in
this state is borne by about
$4,000 persons, Additional tax
alton cannot be imposed on this
body of citizens without the liza
bility of either injury to this
group or of increasing the
States deficit. Relief measures
have made it necessary for the
basis of taxation in this State
to be broadened. That is, more
people must be called upon to
assume a share of the burden.
This is a summary of the con-
clusions arrived at by S. H.
Hobbs, Jr., member of the Uni
versity's department of rural So
cial economics, in an address
made here last week before the
Institute of Parents and Teach
ers. Mr.. Hobbs'S address was
entitled "A Financial Picture of
North Carolina"
THE facts show" said Mr.
Hobbs, that our tax burden in
the aggregate is not heavy fela-
lively. This does not mean that
it is equitably distributed"
In 1923 the North Carolina
ratio of taxes to income was
$500. In the nation it was
7.30. In the South Atlantic area
Fit was 1862. Mr.. Hobbs figures
that the States ratio is now
probably below the u. S. average
due to reduction in cost of State
and local governments combined
since 1923.
Following is a further sum
mary of Mr.. Hobbs's conclu-
sions:
North Carolina is not a rich
State relatively.
The tax burden in the aggre-
gate is not out Of line with the
average for all the States.
The burden is not equitably
distributed and we face some
serious possibilities.
The present trend is toward
State support of an increasing
number of activities, with the
State financed by relatively few
taxpayers.
The States revenues come
from income, inheritance, and

Convict Caught Here
in Chase after Begging with
Companion from House to House

One of two men who were
begging at houses at the further
end of East Franklin street this
week turned out to be an es-
capped convict.
The older of the two men was
thought to be acting so SUSPECT
ously that Officers Wright and
Rackley followed him in a car
and called him to the curb for
questioning. The man broke
and ran down through the
woods back Of H. H. Williams's
house. Chief Wright gave chase
and caught him before he could
cross Bolin's Creek.
The fugitive gave his name as
J. H. Harris, 80 years old, and
admitted, the police say, he was
an escaped convict who had
been at large since May 4. He
had been sentenced at Asheville,
the police reported, for from five
to ten years for highway rob-
berry. He was taken back to
Raleigh Wednesday.
The other man, who was
younger by about five years,
vanished meantime!
The Kings Daughters have

townspeople not to give to beg
gars, but to send them to the

posted a fund to supply food in
case of distress and where the
police will furnish a nights
