LONG BEACH, Calf, Sept. l.
Gov. Culbert L. Olson yesterday ad-
vocated complete embargo on ship
ment of war materials to Japan in
an effort to discourage a Japanese
policy of aggression. which he said
might lead TO war with the United
States.
The California Governor, in an
address prepared for a meeting of
Japanese American citizens, said he
recognized the effect the embargo
would have on sections of American
economy and on CALIFORNIA; oil and
cotton growing industries.

Figures Refute Charge British Dominions
Are Aiding in War Only Half -HeortedIy

Canada had a permanent force OF
about 4,500 men and a non-perma-
nent active Inilitia of about $4,000.
The increase all has been on vol
untary basis. Canada has no con-
ScriptiOn.
Canada has come to play an un-
usual role among the dOmlnionS.
She is center for training fight
ing pilots. She is an industrial
headquarters for the British COM
monwealth in wartime During the
current fiscal year, beginning last
March 81. it is estimated Canada
will ship to England essential goods
worth about s1,5O0,OOO 900. and
Canada still is a lot smaller in
population than the United States
about II ,00000 in all.
Canada has financed about three
quarters of BritainS deficit in deal
ings with Canada to date, and will
finance the bulk of English expendi-
lures there in the coming months.
1t is a sort of lease-lend arrange
mant without the formal overtones.
Canada has told England not to
worry about her shortage of Ca
madam money-that there will be
time enough to reckon costs and
credits when the war Is over.
Canada'S war spending has stead
lily increased. Between September
10, 1899, and March 81, 1910. the
Dominion spent $4,000 900 on her
own war effort. In the 1940-4l
fiscal year april I, 1910. to March
81, 194D direct expenditures for
war were about $792 100000. The
present rate Of spending is well
over 81 900, 100000 a year.
Heavy Increase i'm Taxes.
Canada, like the other dominions.
tries to pay for the war as much as
possible out of current revenues. How
taxes have gone up is illustrated by
the fact that while revenue from
taxes amounted to s468 ,27l 900 in
l939-40. the budget for 1902 calls
for 81 1863 $40, 900 The revenue from
direct taxes in 1939-40 was S136.-
10000. The budgeted direct tax
expectations for the current year
are s732 100000
A married Canadian with no de-
pendents with an income of only
1900 pays S75 annual income tax
now. He paid nothing in 19394C
and $50 in 1940-1.
Wartime economic controls affect
every Canadian. New models fol
automobiles radios, refrigerato
etc. are taboo. Electric power has
! been reduced by daylight saving
Steps have been taken to conserve
scrap metals. Pig iron orders must
be approved by the steel controller
The oil controller has prohibited the
installation of oil-burning equip
ment for non-eSsential purposes.
To keep industry al a high peak
in this critical time, Canada in No
vember, 1889. extended the pro-
visions of the industrial disputes in
Vestieation act 10 cover disputes be-
tween employers and employees en-
gagged in war work. In June, 1910, 4
National Labor Supply Council was
set up equally representing manage
ment and workers.
In December, 1910. wartime wage
policy was adopted, taking 1925
levels and suggesting that any in
creases be in the form of wartime
cost-of living bonuses. The govern
ment has taken a strong attitude to-
ward strikes, and has branded two
outstanding strikes officially as
illegal.
