TREATMENT Of
I
WASHINGTON, I). C.—Appeals to
I the American people to forbear from
any act of suspicion or aggression
| against aliens in the event of war was
i made Wednesday by the Council of
; National Defense. This council, a re
! cently organized citizen body empow
| ered by congress and backed by the
i president to “put America’s house in
j order,” industrially, economically and
| individually, declares, “The presence
here at this time of perhaps 8,000,000
aliens is deeply and soberly to be
weighed.”
Through W. S. Gifford, director of
! the council, the following statement
I was made “to forestall bitter dissen
j sions of race arising from acts of
I passion. The Council of National De
j fense touches the life of the nation
i at practically every point. In the
J words of the act creating it, it is
I charged not merely with ’the concen
tration and utilization of the re
sources of the nation.’ It is its equal
duty in times of stress to mobilize
good will within our borders, to fore
stall bitter dissensions of race or of
individuals arising from acts of pas
sion and in every way to conserve
the national unity.
j Emphasizing anew our national
1 doctrines of tolerance and personal
i liberty, of holding all persons within
< the land to be loyal unless by their
own acts they shall prove the con
trary, we call upon all citizens, if un
toward events should come upon us,
to present to these aliens, many of
j whom will tomorrow be Americans,
an attitude, of neither suspicion nor
! aggressiveness.
“We urge upon all Americans to
j meet these millions of foreign born
| with unchanged manner and with un
| prejudiced mind. Any other course is
i unworthy of our traditions and against
i public policy and the free How of gov
| prnmental affairs.”
| FATHERS’ C OUNC IL TO AID
THE PARENT TEACHERS
DENVER, Colo., Feb. 19.—What is
said to be the first organization of
its kind, a fathers’ council, has been
formed here, and is now taking an
active part in the work of bringing
the home and the school closer to
j gether. The reason for the formation
j of the body, an officer of it stated,
' was that the women, who largely
have managed the Parent-Teachers’
association and the Mothers’ congress,
have reached the stage where they
felt the advice and attention of the
fathers, equally present with those of
the mothers in the home, should be
turned to the school, where they say
the fathers have an interest also.
The organization is to be made up
of one “representative father” from
each school in the Denver district
where there is an organization of the
Parent-Teachers’ association. Near
ly 30 such schools have accredited rep
resentatives to the Fathers’ council
and an organization has been perfect
ed with the election of officers.
A legislative committee, to oper
ate along the lines of the legislative
committees of industrial associations,
will be named to scrutinize and report
on hills affecting education before the
Colorado legislature.
The association, one of its officers
declared, will “bring the business abil
ity of the fathers to the school prob
lem.” It was stated also that voca
tional education would be a major
subject in the organization’s consider
ation, if present theories of leading
members were carried out.

JUNEAU, March 11).—Abolition ofj
the territorial commission for the pro
motion of uniformity of legislation in
the United States is aimed at in sen
ate bill No. 20, introduced by Senator,
Aldrich. The commission was author
ized by Chapter 40 of the Session
Laws of 1913. The members of the
commission are Judge Royal A. Gun
nison, Juneau, chairman; George B.
Grigsby, Nome, and Fred M. Brown,

JUNEAU, March 1!).—A four dollar
tax upon every male resident of Alas

is imposed by senate bill No. 4, intro
duced in the senate by Senator Gaus
tad. The tax shall be payable between
i the first of June and the first of July
each year at the office of the United
States commissioner nearest the resi
dence of the person. The commission
er is given ten per cent of all the taxes
collected by him as a commission.
If the tax is not paid by the first of
July each year, it becomes delinquent,
and a penalty of 25 per cent shall be
added. The commissioner’s stipend, if
he collects delinquent taxes, shall be
20 per cent of the amount collected.
Under one provision of the act,
every person, firm, company or corpor
ation employing men shall pay the
personal school tax of every person in
his or its employ before July 1 to the
commissioner of the precinct in which
the men are employed. Failure to do
so will be a misdemeanor under the
act.
Provision is made for the enforce-1
ment of the tax by the commissioners,
who shall have power to start proceed
ings. Violations are punishable by a i
S100 fine.
All personal school taxes collected i
in incorporated towns shall be turned
over to the clerk of the town in which
the tax is collected, to be used for
nothing but school purposes. The ter
ritorial treasurer receives and dis
burses all other taxes received under
the act.
The 25,000 inhabitants credited to j
Dawson City, Yukon Territory, during j
the height of the 1898 gold rush, have |
now dwindled to a mere 2,000.

NEW YORK, N. Y.—Dr. T. Iyenaga,
editor of the Far East and West News
Bureau and the unofficial spokesman
of Japan in the United States, ex
pressed no surprise when informed
of the Washington revelations of Ger
many’s attempt to align Japan and
Mexico with her in hostilities against
the United States.
“Of course, every intelligent ob
Germany has been active in every re
spect to alienate the good feeling Ire
tween Japan and the United States
and transfer the whole burden of the
enmity America has come to bear her
to the shoulders of Japan,” he said.
“That clearly has been the policy of
the pro-Ge.rman organs. If you read
their editorials of this morning and
yesterday morning, especially their
references to the speech I made re
cently before the World’s Court league
at the Biltmore, you may perceive
clearly the propaganda they have been
carrying on.
“Of course, the whole scheme of the
German agents may be seen to have
been to alienate this long standing
friendship between Japan and the
United States, to conclude a separate
peace with Japan, and, if possible,
Russia, and then to arrange a joint
attack on the United States whenever
she might begin hostilities. That has
been going on for some two years or
more. I have known for quite some
time that such a movement was in
progress.
“The reply that should be made
most emphatic is that Japan will not
participate in any such policy. Japan
is prevented by the Anglo-Japanese al
liance, which is in force until 1923. It
would be against Japan’s Bushido code
—the ancient code of chivalry, where
by her warriors were sworn to loyalty
and faith.
“That alliance with England binds
the two nations to do everything in
their power to help each other in time
of stress, and Japan will continue to
live up to it scrupulously, just as she
has been doing during all this great
conflict, l.et me say again as dis
tinctly as I can that Japan is not go
ing to be a traitor among the nations.”

EUROPE MIGHT GO BAREFOOTED
ROME, March 1.—“A hare-footed
Europe is not improbable if this war
continues,” said John F. Stucke. vice
president of the American Chamber ot
Commerce in Italy and general man
ager of an American shoe machinerj
company, in an interview conceminj
supply and business conditions met bj
Americans abroad.
“At the present time a pair of moun
tain shoes lasts a soldioilbut si:
weeks,” he said. “These shoes hav
tM£ir heels and soles studded witl
nails at that. The shoes are largel
made in Italy but with American ma
chinery and American leather, and tb
quality of the material is the best wi
can furnish, but that quality is o
course inferior to that sold before tin
war. When manufactured by the hun
dred thousand these shoes cost tin
government about four dollars each
But the supply is always behind the
demand, since materials arrive very
slowly from America. On one ship,
the Palermo which was torpedoed in
the Mediterranean, off the coast of
Spain, in early December, the material
for nearly half a million pairs of shoe:
was lost.
“The retail store trade in Italy i;
now obliged to pay nearly seven dot
lars wholesale 'for shoes that befori
the war cost three and a half, and i
is probable that American shoes wil
be selling in Italy soon for ten an
twelve dollars the pair. The America:
shoes, because of their sdape and til
have long been the chief product o
the market here, and particular!
since the war, as the handmade sho
cannot be made quickly enough.”
