JAPAN FAILS TO MAKE OUT
CASE ON ATOMIC BOMB

There is no reasonable premise for an
objection to the use Of the atomic bomb
uS an implement of warfare by any ma
tiun signatOry to the Hague Convention.
And of all nations, members of the Con-
ventiOn or out, Japan is the last one that
should pose an objection.
1t is in keeping with her record as
warning nation, however, that the Empire
NJ the Rising Sun should charge inhu-
name methods when the first devastating
bomb fell on one Of her war industry
cities That there was terrific loss of life
in and out Of the industrial area where
the bomb struck appears certain; but
there had been full and fair warning to
civilians to get in the clear, and the warn
ing was sounded days before the bomb
was launched.
The long list Of atrocities committed
by Japanese on troops and civil authori-
ties, too, in China in the years before Hir-
Ohito ordered the Pearl Harbor attack
the even more savage atrocities commit
ted upon United States fighting men and
civilians caught in China and other places
all concIusively place Japan beyond the
pale Of civilization. These barbaric acts
alone prove the inconsistency Of TOkyO's
appeal to the Hague convention, and
makes the charge against the United
States utterly without reason.
1t is not necessary for nation to be
q signatory to the Hague convention to
observe the stated rules Of war. Nor be-
cause Japan is not member Of that con-
vcntion did She have right or liberty to
violate the common rules Of humanity in
war. These fundamental rules should
prevent Wanton starvation Of war pris-
onerS; murder Of an enemy captured in
due process Of war. Yet Japan has ig-
nored all these, and many more such
rules
Would Japan have hesitated to use
the atomic bomb had she been the nation
to discover the formula and produce the
bomb? Not at all. Would Hirohito have
\ ordered his military leaders to give any
/ sort Of warming? Not if all her long rec
ord Of violation Of rules and common de-
\ CencieS counts for anything.
How little consideration Japan should
! receive in her complaint further is shown
, in the Emperors refusal to save the
7, lives Of his own people and the lives Of
! his foe when he knew that the Allies hold

INFLATED LAND VALUES
New York Times1

(NeW York Times)
The price Of farm land continues to
rise. and signs point to another ma or
and disastrous readjustment when farm
income drops to a more normal level.
The Alexander Hamilton Institute has is
sued a statement that farm real estate
values are nov so per cent above the
1889 level. l. w. Duggan, Farm Credit
Administration governor, said recently:
I'VE are on the brink Of a national disas-
tcr unless something is done to curb the
rising price Of farm and ranch land"
History is repeating itself despite the
tragic lessons after the First World War.
Between 1915 and 1920 farm real estate
jumped in value from 40 billions to Sc
billions. BY 1888 the figure was reduced
to 30 billions, taking SO billion dollars in
capital from farmers in 13-year period.
The danger flag is waving for another
crash; farm values have again climbed
to approximately so billion dollars.
The American Bankers Association re-
Gently sent a warning letter to banks in
rural areas urging that a conservative
lending policy be adopted as a curb to
rising prices. The human element-the
desire on the part Of farmers to make
els-is probably the major factor behind
the land boom. Money which would 60
for machinery, equipment, household i'm
rrovements and other items in normal
times is going into land. Some of the rise
is undoubtedly due to buying by city
people, business men and spectators
who hope to unload before the peak
The whole situation IS an unexploded
bomb. The years following 1920 were
disastrous for many farmers who had
large mortgages on their properties. It
was a personal tragedy for scores Of
thousands, and the repercussions were
severe enough to be unsettling to the
national economy. Meanwhile the pres
cnt situation is penalizing veterans who
want to go into farming. Most of the
men whose applications have been re-
iected have not had enough money to
pay the difference between normal val
uation and the present inflated prices of
farms

CAVANAH A GOOD SELECTION
AS COUNTY SUPERVISOR

Appointment of Earl Cavanah of Cal
eXico as county supervisor to succeed
Ike Schlatter should prove a happy and
satisfactory choice for all concerned
Mr., Cavanah long has been outstand-
ing in the valley for his interest and ac-
tivity in community affairs, and espe-
cially those pertaining to Calexico and
its immediate trade territory. He has
been outstanding as one of the leaders in
that community which he now is to rep
resent on the county board
Not only is he we'll prepared to rep
resent the CaleXico district, but he
equally is we'll prepared, we believe, to
represent all the county County af-
fairs might be said to be divided into
two parts; those of especial interest to
4 supervisors own district, and those per-
tanning to the general welfare of the Val
lev as a whole Having been active in
boosting the interests of CaleXicO, he has
been in full touch with countrywide af-
fairs and should be able to give intelli-
gent, unbiased and unfettered opinions
On matters pertaining to county mat
terS.
Few appointees could hope for more
universal approval than, we feel sure,
Cavanah enjoys. We are confident that
the county is equally to be congratulated
on having a man of Cavanah's experience
and ability to fill the vacancy.

u. s. Alone Holds
Full Secret
OF Atomic Bomb

OTTAWA, Aug. IA. (UP)-Muni-
tions Minister G. D. Howe revealed
that, while the United States, Great
Britain and Canada share the scien-
tific knowledge upon which the
atomic bomb is based, only the
United States knows the details Of
the bombs manufacture.
Howe explained that Canada's role
in the production of the bomb was
to supply the essential raw mate
rails leaving it to the United States
to devise its manufacture into
weapon form
Canada has the right to ask for
all the details of manufacture. but
so far has not done So" the min
lister stated
He said that Canada had not
wished to accept responsibility for
possible leakage Of manufacturing
details and that United Kingdom
had taken a similar attitude
Soviet Russia, while familiar with
the fact that atomic experiments
were in progress, had nto been asso-
ciated with the developmnt of the
bomb.

Lawmakers Eye
Cancellation
OF Normal Tax

WASHINGTON, Aug. IA. up
Cancellation Of the three per cent
normal tax was viewed Monday as
a likely first postwar step to re-
duce the individual income tax bur
cen.
This could be done easily and
could be in effect BY Jan. | while
congress considered more thorough
going tax revisionS
Repeal Of the normal tax would
eliminate income tax obligations Of
nually under the present structure.
1t would mean a reduction for all
the remainder of some 50,000,00O
taxpayers.
SURTAX RATE
Still stancing would be the heavy
surtaX which starts at 20 per cent
and graduates to 81 per cent, ac-
cording to income.
The house ways and means COM
mittee, where tax bills originate in
congress, had planned to take up
tax matters late in the year In
view of war developments it may
go to work earlier
The present income tax law as it
! affects the individual is made up
of the normal tax and surtax. These
are based on percentages Of income
but with different rates and ex-
emptiOns.
For the normal tax an exemption
Of up to $500 is allowed only for
those members Of a family who ac-
tually receive income. For instance
a married man with wife and two
children gets only a $500 normal tax
exemption CunlesS the wife and
children have income of their own.
| For the Surtax, however, the wage
Garner may take a $500 exemption
each for himself, his wife. and each
| other dependent relatives
BLOT OUT ENTIRE TAX
If the normal tax is repealed, a
\ family consisting Of man. wife, two
children with gross income OF
$4,000 and a present tax bill Of S3e
would no longer pay any tax.
Likewise a married couple with
one child and a gross income OF
$500 would no longer pay the tax
The same goes for married couple
with $1,000 of income. In all these
cases. none is subject to surtax.
A man with $500 income. a
wife and one child would find his
tax bill lessened by S135 per year
