JAPAN IS GOING TO DEMAND NAVY
 1. EQUAL TO BEST
She Will Give the TwO- Year Notice Will Not
 Be InfeCiOr Power
By HARRY FLORY 1N34. bv United PresS)

Copyright, 1884, by United Press)
 London, Jan 12-CUP)-Japan, determined to have a larger navy, has intimated to interested govern ments her intention of giving hte necessary two years notice to ter minate the Washington naval limi- tation treaty, it was learned today.
 The earliest date for such mo- tice is December 31. There is to be a naval conference in 1895, to re- wise both the Washington treaty covering large ships and the Lon don naval treaty covering smaller ones.
 Japan's last official demand, made at the Geneva disarmament conference, W for a navy about nine-tenths as strong as those of the United States and Great Britain, the two great sea powers. It was understood that at the 1885 naval conference she would demand, at the outset, navy of equal strength.
 By the Washington treaty Japan, France and Italy were limited to strength in battleships and aircraft carriers of SO per cent of those of the United States and Britain.
 Under the London treaty cover- ing cruisers, destroyers and subma- rines Japan was limited to about 75 per cent of the British American strength.
 If the 1885 negotiations fail, a naval race would impend, and the only naval agreement left operative after 1936, when the present trea- ties expire, would be that governing submarine warfare.
 Japan has made it increasingly clear that She is not satisfied to re- main in an inferior position. Months ago Japan had made provision for almost enough warships, to insure her full London treaty strength by the end of 1886. In the opinion of London naval experts her subse- quent building program provides for a navy considerably above treaty strength shortly after she is released from the existing treaties.

 Warburg admitted that the pro- posal of a silver-gold ratio of 75- 25 per cent, would work so far as gold was concerned, but said pres- ent silver stocks would fall short of the required needs.
 Coughiin proposed that currency backed by the quicksilver coins be used to retire war bonds.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
THE GOLDEN EGGS

'"The taxpayer, let it never be forgotten, is the
mainstay of government" says the Detroit Times.
''He is, as a rule, the man of steady industry and
frugality, who labors early and late-produclng,
saving, paying and supporting =.
"He is soeiety's prop and reliance Without him
recovery is an idle dream and the great prof.
ects of government are fored0omed to failure"
This essential figure, the taxpayer, has few vo-
cal defenders. Public officials pile steadily incfeas-
ing burdens him. They take large part of his
income and often his savings-both through taxa
ton and through tax-exempt governmental prof.
'ects which compete with his private endeavors.
You don't have to pay direct taxes to be tax
payer. You may never pay an income tax or a
property tax-But substantial percentage of your
earnings is taken for taxes nevertheless. The gro
Ger who sells you food, the factory that produces
it. and the railroad which transports it, are heavily
lakeland the tax is AIDED to the cost of every
thing you buy.
Every one of us is taxpayer. Every one OF us
is proud to support government But each one
of us is less secure in his job and his savings, as
oppressive tax and legislative policies discourage
industries and investments which provide steady
jobs
The taxpayer is the goose that lays the golden
eggs viii the public servants he employs kill him
in an effort to collect more eggs than he can pro-

The foregoing formula might
offhand indicate that the person

ing standards.
The yardstick that measures
the good citizen is different un-
der different classes of govern
ment. The fellow who is a citi-
zen under a monarchy is a good
citizen if he conducts himself
with propriety and is obedient to
his monarch. The man who is a
citizen under the aristocratic
form Of government is good
citizen if he minds his P's and
Q's' and lets the ruling class rule;
his responsibility Stops there.
But the person living under a
democracy can not confine his
efforts and his influences to his
own affairs and to the. philoso-
phies and theologies around him

JIM FIXES IT

Brother Big Jim Farley, whatever else his faults,
POSITIVELY exudes the virtue of consistency
When they were having the repeal elections,
Brother Big JIM journeyed into Tennessee to make
ia speech in favor, and it was only by the smmest
held in line So what did Brother Big Jim do then?
L Why he came to North Carolina and made a
speech for repeal and dsafected at the most COLI
lservative estimate $4,000 voters who resented be-
ing told what to do about something so intimate
as liquor. That was Brother Big Jiln's cue TO 90
to New York and sway the city election there in
behalf of his good man Mckee, who promptly lost
handsomely
I So then, being at loss what to lose next he
lcame back to postmaster generating and pretty
soon it developed that there had been some things
gong on in the last administration which shouldn't
have gone on, whereat Brother Big Jim slipped
the skds under the parties of the second part in
stead of the parties of the first part and the Army
came forward in backward manner.
Currently, Brother Big Jim has issued orders that
the flying of the mails is to be returned to the
private companies except that the parties Of the
second part, who have never had even so much as
,one half day in court, to get rid of the men
who attended conference at which it has not yet
been proven that anything went on which was anv
more against the law than it is to separate man
from his salary check without letting him tell his
side of the story.
Brother Big Jim goes under the glittering title
OF Maker of Presidents" If somebody does nor
stop him he is making another President right now.

YOUR BREAD AND BUTTER

If you talk to business man today about prob
lens that are worrying him, nine chances out of
ten he will bring up the subject of taxation. He
knows that government must be supported and iE
anxious and willing to do his part But he is be-
ginning to question whether too many things are
being done in the name of government, which are
outside the functions of governing and in the
realms of business.
The tax question is not yet as personal to the
employe as it is to the employer because he has not
yet seen his position in the picture as clearly
has the employer.
As matter of fact, the employee has more at
stake than the employer Take the case of fac
tax burdens of the employer, local and national
are reaching point where his earnings which he
would like to spend for expansion, are in many
cases absorbed by taxation. Taxes discourage the
investor from making improvements that would
give employment. Who is the greatest loser here
If an employer is finally forced to cease opera
ton, he and his family suffer as one unit in COM
miunity life. But ten employees or one thousand
employees will suffer just much as he does, by
loss of their jobs Therefore, employees really have
a greater interest in conditions that create and
maintain employment, than has the employer.
That is why employees have greater interest
today in taxation and legislative questions that
fore-because jobs become harder to get as OPP
lportunites reduced for successful operation Of

Teachers To Get
Pay In Full; No
Further Slashes
The Timcs-News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, April 3.-There is
no danger of any further cut in
the pay of the school teachers IN
North Carolina or that they may
not receive their full salaries for
the last month of the school year,
Leroy Martin, executive secrc-
tary of the state school commits
sion, said today. For expendi-
lures for all other services have
been reduced so that the teachers
may be paid in full. He was quot
ed in a Raleigh morning news
paper yesterday as indicating the
state might be able to pay the
full amount due the teachers for
the last month.
Secretary Martin agrees, how
ever, that if the school commits
sion should expend the amount OF
money it should for transporta-
ton and for the replacement of
school buses, for school supplies
and other incidentalg, that it then
would not have enough left to
paw all the teachers in full. But
it is not going to make any Of
these other expenditures until it
is sure that either the state has
enough money on hand to pay the
teachers or that if it does not
have the required amount of
money, the United States govern
ment will make up the balance.
Under present regulations put
into effect by the emergency re-
