By the Associated Press. | ROME, May 17.—Diplomatic cir- cles today considered highly signifi- cant the recently increasing efforts | of Italy and Germany to bind Japan | more closely to them in an anti- | Communist front. | Germany and Japan signed an anti- | Communist pact last November and at the same time Japan and Italy reached an understanding on trade questions. These accords, however, have not been popular with the | Japanese people in spite of the Tokio government's attempts to “cell” them to the public. Therefore creation of closer cul- tural bonds has been the principal aim of the two European Fascist pow= ers in wooing Japan. Informed ob- servers here believe all three gov- ernments are trying to instill in their peoples the idea that at least a spirit- ual tie binds them. | Seek to Line-up Japan. Premier Mussolini and Reichs- fuehrer Hitler, already working in {harmony in European affairs, have turned their eyes toward Japan, ap- parently hoping to include Japan in a line-up opposed to Anglo-French- Soviet co-operation. German friendship with Japan is | expected to receive impetus from the visit of Prince Chichibu, brother of | Emperor Hirohito, when he arrives | in Berlin after a round of coronation galety in London. | The Japanese cruiser Ashigara, re- turning a visit to Japan by the Ger- (man cruiser Emden, is scheduled to arrive in Kiel in & few weeks. In | these and other ways German-Japa- | nese friendship has been emphasized. | Vice President Giuseppe Tucci of | the Italian Institute for the Near and Far East recently returned from Ja- pan, where his mission was to awaken interest in Italian culture, an or- ganization he promised Mussolini would “carry on an active propaganda { of Italian culture.” Chair of Italian Inaugurated. He arranged with the University |of Commerce in Tokio to inaugurate & chair of Italian and to recognize | Italian as on a par with English as | | & language study leading to a univer- sity degree. In the University cities of Sendai, Kyoto, Fukuoka, Sapporo and Osaka | he founded Italo-Japanese groups which an Italian communique de- | clared “must become the first cells of | vasler organs of propaganda.” | He arranged for a permanent dis- ‘play of Italian books in the window of one of Tokio's largest book stores. While Germany and Italy strength- en their bonds with Japan, they have not neglected one another. High- ranking officials have hurried back and forth between Rome and Berlin exchanging official visits. Diplomatic circles have heard for weeks that the interchange would reach a climax in a face-to-face meet- ing between Il Duce and the Reichs- fuehier, probably at Hitler's Bavarian retreat, to put a seal upon their co- operative accord. Court (Continued From First Page.) should be construed as intended to deny a refund in any case where a claimant is constitutionally entitled to it. We apply the familiar canon which makes it our duty, of two pos- sible constructions, to adopt the one which will save and not destroy. We cannot attribute to Congress an intent to defy the fifth amendment or even to come 50 near to doing 50 as to raise a serious question of constitutional law “When the Congress requires the claimant, who has paid the invalid tax, to show that he has not been reimbursed or has not shifted its bur~ den, the provision should not be con- strued as demanding the performance of a task, if ultimately found tc be inherently impossible, as a condition of relief to which thec laimant would otherwise be entitled.. There is ample room for the play of the statute within the range of possible determinations. It cannot be doubted that the require- ment has appropriate and valid effect in placing upon the claimant the duty to present fully all the facts per- taining to the question of the shift- ing of the burden of the tax and in denying relief where the facts Jjustify a conclusion that the burden has been shifted from the claimant to others. * ok ok X Facts Must Be Shown. “In saying this, we are not pessing upon the constitutional right of petitioner to a refund or upon the question whether in its case the shift- ing of the burden of the tax is or is not ‘susceptible of proof.’ Constitu- tional questions are not to be decided hypothetically. When particular facts control the decision they must be shown. Petitioner's contention as to impossibility of preef is premature. Manffestly there is no impossibility so far as the production of proof of petitioner's operations or course of business is concerned. What is meant by impossibility of proof is | impossibility of determination after | these facts are in. Whether or not | any such impossibility of determina- tion will exist is a question which properly should await the ascertain- ment of the facts. For the present purpose it is sufficient to hold, and we do hold, that the petitioner may constitutionally be required to present all the pertinent facts in the pre- scribed administrative proceeding and may there raise, and ultimately may NO EXTRA CHARGE FOR HAND FINISHING Finished Ready to Use 9 pounds Only $1.59 Try Economy Laundry Service This Week other extras too—not a penny extra.

Legality of the Louisiana chain store tax was upheld by a 4-to-3 vote, Jus- tice Roberts delivering the majority opinion. Justices Van Devanter and Stone took no part in the case, and Justices Sutherland, Butler and Mc- Reynolds dissented. Validity of the tax had been ques- tioned by the Great Atlantic & Pa- cific Tea Co. on the ground it denied equal protection of the laws and was an attempt by the State Legislature to tax industries outside the State in violation of the commerce clause of the Constitution. By a unanimous vote the court up- held a broadened definition of the term “farmer” in the amended Fra- zier-Lemke act. The sole’ question involved was the status of Francis E. Beach of Trumbull, Conn., whose con- tention that he was engaged in farm- ing met with the court's approval in an opinion by Justice Cardozo. The court will meet for the last time for adjournment for the Summer on Tuesday, June 1. U. S. URGED TO CURB WITNESS INTIMIDATION Heavy Penalties Against Those Interfering With Federal In- quiries Asked. By thé Associated Press, The Senate Civil Liberties Commit- tee asked Congress today to provide heavy Federal penalties for intimida- tion of witnesses summoned before any congressional investigating body. Chairman La Follette said a meas- ure proposed with committee backing was designed to halt “threats and in- timidation, such as those which have severely hampered the work of the Civil Liberties Committee.” The meas- ure would provide two years’ imprison- ment and $5,000 fine for any one at- tempting to obstruct the work of a congressional inquiry or influence its witnesses. La Follette recalled that during the committee’s recent investigation of “anti-union terrorism” in the Harlan County (Ky.) coal fields, at least two witnesses said they were threatened as a result of their testimony. Charges were brought against a third witness in connection with some of the alleged threats. STUDENT PETITION ASKS SOCIAL DISEASE TEST Oklahoma A. and M.
