Each island made a contribution of 100,000 pounds ing toward the expenses of the g war, The home secretary says the rnment is not unmindful of these contributions of money and the men from the islands who gave war services in the forces, and continues: “It is not necessary that I shall dwell at length on the grave financial position of the United Kingdom, thé enormous burden of taxation which is placed upon the British taxpayer in order to meet the cost of the war, and the serious hindrance to the revival of industry and commerce and to the restoration of normal conditions which this taxa- tion involves.” The recommendations are that Guernsey should contribute annually 275,000 pounds and Jersey 325,000 pounds, which would mean an annual taxation of 6 pounds 17 shillings per head for Guerns and 6 pounds 11 shillings for '8 The points out that th resent taxation in these islands is ss than three pounds 10 shillings per head, com- pared with 17 pounds in the United Kingdom; Jersey led 1t vir dencles, a v re e to se this influx of s hrought is gained has Q and gov- forms.

H., March 22.—The | Japanese high school here has opened | a class in jiu-jitsu for girls. This | step was taken because of the many | recent reports of assaults upon wom- en and girls in Honoluly, and from the results that are being obtained | from the instruction in the Nipponese | art of personal protection, it is be-| lieved that the nest person who at-| tempts to molest a Japanese girl will | meet with a surprise. . Graduates from the course are ex-| pected to be able to defend them- selves against the attacks of much larger persons and to inflict swift counter-punishment. The small stat- ure of the Japanese girls is expected to be no handicap. More than 40 | girls are enrolled in the class. Japanese Up | e ! BRITISH PAINTER DIES.
