JUKE 3, 1938 PAGE NINE r J r JAPANESE ACCEPT " REGIMENTED LIFE Bow Docilely to Strict De crees Governing Mode of Living Taxes Rise as Expense of War Mounts. TOKYO (UP) Regimentation, ab horred In the United States, La ac cepted with a meek shrug In Japan. The government put into effect a law restricting the use of gasoline and the Japanese motor car owner, without protest, rides street cars and buses. The government Invokes a law pro viding for registration of all citizens and for regular reports on their ac tivities. There are no mass meetings to denounce Invasion of personal rights. Taxes are raised, press and personal freedom are restricted, It Is decreed - that wood fiber must go Into wear ing apparel still no public uproar. The Japanese have a word for -It. "Shlkataganal," they say, a. fatal istic expression Indicating that the matter la beyond human control. They say It as they pull their belts tighter and pay higher prices for , everyday commodities. They say It when sons are killed at the front or when a favorite nephew who would prefer to be a doctor or teacher is called to the colors as a soldier. Loyal to Emperor There Is no thought of non-cooperation. Many Japanese are not In favor of the war in China, but they . would not think of refusing help. .That would be disloyalty to the em - peror, the most serious crime possible. The China conflict thus far has not resulted In any food scarcity In Japan. Food costs more but there seems to be an ample supply. "I think the people would stand for almost anything as long as their leaders obtain food for them." said an American who has watched the phenomenon for several years. "I sincerely believe they could tear up the street-car tracks or tear down buildings to obtain steel If It should become necessary and the people would, not grumble greatly, if the results at the end are not consid ered sufficient reward for the hard ships undergone then there may be trouble. "But while the fight Is on they work together. I don't see any signs of a collapse In public morale." There has been much discussion of a possible financial collapse In Japan. The latest issue of the Oriental Economist, a monthly report of so cial, economic and political condi tions in Japan, discusses the question. War Costs Estimated "The emergency war disbursements y up to March 20 were less than 1,800, 000,000 yen," the magazine stated. "Calculated on the basis of 100 yen equalling $29, the emergency expend itures em not exceed $464,000,000. Bprend. over the eight months since the outbresi of the hostilities, thla represents an average monthly out'.ey or less than 58,oou,000 " The writer estimated ' that even with mounting emergency expendi tures "It remains doubtful whether the entire supplementary appropria tions approved by the idlet session ean be used up within the next year." Since August, 1937, exports and Im ports of gold and of certain other ommoditles have not been made RESPITE the many ad- vancements made in living conditions every home has Its danger zones" places where disease-bearing germs thrive, unless hygienically cleansed.

This has been lntArnretari covering a weakened position. The wnoniai economist stated that while tne individual Items have not been published they have been included In published totala which show that japan e import balance la not so unfavorable as might be supposed. Trade Figures Withheld The trade figures are withheld under the lndustrlsl esninnuBA uw so that foreign governments and the people at home may not know the details of how much Is going Into munitions. It la the fashion In Japan for leaders to talk of "a national crll" or a "drastic emergency." it la some times inougni that alarms are raised occasionally so that greater grants of power may be accorded those In control. Following up that line of thought, It might be reasoned that perhaps the present situation Is not so serious aa some of Japan's harsh control methods might Indicate. Leaders might h itxlno th ,.,. circumstances to Impose a type of government which would not be pop ular In less strenuous times. In recent years the economic struc ture of Japan has been shifting toward a cartel system with the government snonsnrlnff mmhini(,nna of firms In related Industrial fields. J ne government has begun a process which easily could make absolute government monopolies out of all basic Industries. Industry In Japan Is so firmly controlled that a reduction in nm. ductlon of ron-essentlals csn be put into errect almost overnight. Con versely, a war Industry can be stepped to higher production with a speed Which would not he nriMlhln a more loosely held management.

Retired Justice George Sutherland, who left the beneh on February 1. dissented in 13 cases during hia half-term of service. By far th most frequent dissenter of the liberal bloc was Justice Hugo L. Black, several of whose dissenting opinions were widely publicised be cause they expressed his opposition to long-accepted judicial standards and urged their overthrow. Espouses New principle For instance, he chose a compara tively minor case. In which the court in a per curiam "opinion ordered further lower oourt consideration of validity of ratee proposed for the Indianapolis Water company, to ex press his bitter opposition to any interference by federal courta with rate regulations of state utility regu latory bodies. Black contended that regxilatlon of utility rates was a purely state affair, and that federal courts had over Peas, No. 300 tins Pumpkin, No. 2J4 tins Spaghetti.

Similarly, he chose a relatively unimportant case involving Imposi tion of a California franchise tax on, the Connecticut General Life In surance company to express hla firm belief that federal courta erred in extending protection of the consti tution's due process clause to corpo rations. He charged that when the 14th amendment was enacted providing that no state shall "deprive any per son of life, liberty or property with out due process of law," congress and state legislators Intended only that the protection should be extended to persons, not to corporations. Black pointed out that the amend ment was adopted following the Civil war as a protection 'to the Negro race, and added: "No section of the amendment gnve notice to the people that, If adopted, It would subject every state law and municipal ordinance, affect ing corporations (and all adminis trative actions under them) to cen sorship of the United States courta.

Declares Court Erred The original error, he charged, was committed In the 1890a, when the supreme court held that the word "person" In the due process clause was sufficiently broad to extend pro tection of the clause to corporations. Again, he stood by himself in two cases involving validity of patents to charge that the courts had erred In Interpreting patent law, and that the Interpretation placed on that law by the supreme court Itself in effect encouraged extension of monopolies through patent extensions wh lch congress never had intended to au thorise. Altogether. Black dissented in lfi cases through mid-May. Justloe Har lan F. Stone had dissented five times. Justice Benjamin N. Cardoso four times, Justloe Owen J. Roberts and Justice Stanley F. Reed twice, and Justice Louis D. Brandels, dean of the liberal bloc, only once. Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes, through mid-May, was the only Jus tice enjoying an "always-right" rec ord.
