Japan's mission to the United States, bearing a message oC congratulation, and ap preciation to President "Wilson from the Kmperof and people of Japan, was welcomed to AVashington today with warmth and. enthusiasm by the public and with the highest marks of cour tesy by the Government. Through streets thronged with people, past long- lines of school chil dren in- white, with the red sun of Japan on the fronts of their gowns, the distinguished visitors were es corted by cavalry to the residence of Perry Belmont, where they will bo the Government's guests during their stay. Tomorrow they will make formal call, preceding the official conferences be in? arranged for them, and in the evening they will dine with the Presi dent. X". S. Greeted as Ally. Viscount Ishli, the special Ambassa dor, expressed to newspaper corre spondents his gratification at the wel come given the mission here, at Hono lulu, ban Francisco and at all Stages of its journey. Tonight the commissioners dined in formally with the Japanese Ambassa dor. The mission, it is authoritatively ex plained, has not come here on a com mercial or . political errand, but to greet the L'nited States as a brother nation fighting for a common end, and decide, after consultation, how best the two nations can co-operate, both In an economic and a military sense, in carrying on the war. While Viscount Jshii is vested -with plenipotentiary powers. the: questions to be discussed will not be political, but those of ex pediency and mutual assistance. Japan's Assistance at Sea Vital. Among the important problems to be taken up is that of the disposition of Japanese shipping. The entente allies are looking to Japan for assistance in solving the ocean transportation prob lem, which ranks as first in importance in the war. It is understood that Japan stifnds ready to render additional as sistance within her abilities, and to con trive mens to .do so is one of the prime objects of the special mission. America becomes an important factor In meeting this demand because the Japanese ennot build the great number of new ships needed for the trade with out structural steel from the United States. Such exports of steel can be made by America only by self-sacrifice, for the tremendous building programme of the Shipping Board promises io take the entire available domestic mill pro duction. Consequently, if the Japanese shipyards, now running liv a very lim ited way, are to be supplied with Amer ican steel, there must be an agreement that the new Japanese tonnage is to be devoted to war uses. Japanese Moot Forrgo Big: Gains. An important secondary considera tion is that of freight rates, and it re mains to be seen whether the Japanese shipowners'crih be induced to content themselves with more moderate profits than they have been making "in the past, thus conforming to the scale of ocean f relghtswhich the allies and the United States are expected to lay down. Japan has a total mercantile tonnage of 2,000,000 and is adding to this at the rate of 600.000 tons a year. Of this total about 4Vi per cent is now in the entente war service. Another war measure the Commission is expected to discuss is the enlarge ment of the Japanese naval activities. Already Japan has been of great serv ice to her allies in relieving them wholly of the necessity and heavy task of patrolling the seas in the Far East. It has been suggested that these Japan naval activities might be extended to include a patrol of the whole North Pa cific from shore to shore, thus reliev ing the American naval forces in those waters for service in European and other waters. Viscount Ishii, speaking to the newspaper 'correspondents, said' he would not give extended interviews until he had made his formal call on President Wilson, but made-the follow ing statement: Future Amity Seen Secure. "To say I am pleased to be in Wash ington would be too conventional. I am delighted -we are all delighted with the cordial reception tendered to us everywhere and with the splendid eplrit of hospitality and of good will we have found at all points. "In speaking to the gentlemen of a newspaper press which wields such enormous power in this great country, I am well aware that purely conven tional and formal utterance Is worse than nothing it sounds empty. But, at the same time, what can I say? I have not e,ven done my first duty as a guest. Obviously it would be im proper therefore to anticipate the mes sage I carry from the Emperor of . Ja pan to your great President. "My last visit' to America was Just 10 years ago, and even on my short drive through your very beautiful streets this morning I was able to mark many changes for the better, though Wash-' lngton has always remained a pleasant memory. Many things . have changed and, now that Japan and America are together brothers-in-arms and fighting for a great common .cause, I have every hope and confidence in success, victory and for permanently continued interna tional amity," -. - , LEWISTON NOT DISTURBED Troops and Civil Authorities Are Ready for Emergency.

ROADS GREATLY NEEDED GOVERNOR CONTENDS FORCEFULLY FOR BETTER HIGHWAYS. Mr. Wlthycombe, Addressing: Picnic of Lane Farmers and Eugene Business Men, Saya State Needs Publicity. Eu 1ENE, Or., Aug. 22. (Special.) Governor ASrithycombe, on- his way home from Crescent City. Cal., where he and State Highway Commissioner Benson met with the Governor and State Highway Commissioner of Cali fornia, to which he" referred as "prob ably the most notable highway meet ing ever held on the Pacific Coast," to-v day told Eugene business men and Lane County farmers that better highways are Oregon's greatest need. The Governor spoke at a picnic under the auspices of the Eugene Chamber of Commerce and the Pomona Grange of Lane County. "I was impressed wh..e In California by the tendency to put the state for ward," he said. "They are putting California first and they are putting California ahead. ' They do not fail to tell you about their great attractions. Oregon, I believe. . has been too con servative. We ha. e . the attractions here and we should tell more about them. The state needs publicity." NATIONAL LAV: IS URGED SEATTLE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE FAVORS EIGHT-HOUR DAY. Injustice of Enforcing Such Legisla tion on West and Not on South Declared to Be Most Glaring. SEATTLE, " Aug. 22. The " Seattle Chamber of Commerce today adopted resolutions favoring early enactment of a National law establishing an eight hour day in the lumber Industry throughout the country and urging the Washington delegation in Congress to use their best effort to. secure enact ment of such a law. The Chamber, in a preeamble, sets forth that for the lumber industry in this state to estab lish singly the eight- hour day would be ruinous, on account of severe compe tition from other lumber districts, hotably from the South. The Chamber says: "This state is more than 1000 miles farther away from the principal lum ber market than its Southern competi tor, thereby giving the latter in the matter of freight alone an advantage of from $5 to 7 a thousand. If to this heavy handicap Is added the eight-hour day, while the favored competitor is given at day of 10 or 11 hours, the in justice would be so glaring that no fair-minded man could deny it."

LENR00T PLAN KEPT, TOO Move for Elimination Is Defeated and Tentative Programme Now Calls for $2,000,000,000 Assess ment on Millionaires. WASHINGTON, Aug. 22. After pro tracted debate in which many Senators urged heavier levies on Incomes and war profits in the war tax bill, the Senate today tentatively adopted Sen ator Oerry's amendment which would add $40,375,000 by greatly increasing surtaxes on incomes exceeding $500,- ooo. On a test vote for elimination of the so-culled Lenroot amendment made in the House providing 25 per cent in crease in surtax rates on incomes ex ceeding $60,000 and raising about 6tl. 000.000 In revenue, the Senate voted 35 to 33 against their elimination by the finance committee. Under the Gerry amendment the total tax levy on all millionaires' incomes, including the present law, would be 67 per cent. With the Gerry amendment the bill would aggregate 12,035,000,000. with several amendments by Senator La Kollette pending for further In creases in the income tax rates. The Gerry amendment was adopted without a dissenting vote. All of the Lenroot amendments as adopted by the House were retained by the Senate after reductions proposed by the finance committee were rejected on two test votes. FRATTD IS UID TO WEALTIIY Senator Lewis Charges - Fraud In Evasion of Income Taxes. WASHINGTON, Aug. 22. Charges that the Government has been defraud ed out of fully $300,000,000 in income taxes evaded by the wealthy were made in the Senate today by Senator Lewis, of Illinois, who declared the Treasury Department had the proofs. Senator Lewis was speaking In sup port of Senator Gerry's amendment to the war tax bill greatly to Increase taxes on large incomes. "There has been inconceivably In genious lying on the income tax sched ules before the finance committee that would in other forums subject those responsible to perjury," said he. "Jn the treasury at this hour is proof of $300,000,000 swindled out of the Government by fraud, perjury, decep tion and other different forms of com mercial trickery on the income tax returns. If it had not been for a cer tain set of men who, prating loudly about unpatriotism and crying for war, there would have been no necessity for levying the heavy burdens of this bill." , Senator Lewis also said that, had this set of very wealthy men shown fidelity and honesty in making their income tax returns, the Government would in past years have had ample funds for preparedness purposes. CANADIAN LO! POPULAR APPLICATIONS INDICATE ISSUE WILL BE OVERSUBSCRIBED Money Is to Be Used In Construction of Government Railroad Inter est Rate Is 7 Per Cent. Scores of applications for the newest Canadian loan poured into the offices of the Lumbermen's Trust Company yesterday, indicating that the issue will be oversubscribed greatly. Advices from New York showed that fully 85 per cent of the loan had been subscribed at noon. Locai investors. however, are assured of a substantial share of their full subscriptions as tha Lumbermen's Trust Company bought enough Of the bonds outright to accom modate some of the earliest applicants. This is one of the biggest loans, other than municipal Issues, floated in this country since the liberty bonds were sold a few months ago and the action oi the market yesterday reflects the bond situation in the country at large. So far as its taxable qualities are concerned the Canadian loan is on an equality with industrial . issues, being subject to the Income tax. The bonds are Issued in denomina tions of $1000 each and are due Septem ber 1, 1918, bearing 6 per cent interest. The money is to be used by the Cana dian government to complete and na tionalize the Canadian Northern Rail way, which is to be an Important artery in the future conduct of the war. While the new issue pays 6 per cent Interest, it is being sold to investors on a basis to yield 7 per cent. This figure, it Is believed, fairly fixes the rate at which industrial securities will be sold in this country while the Wat tax Is in effect.
