Art Smith (1890-1926) was a pioneer aviator. Aerial Age Weekly refers to demonstration flights he made in Japan in 1916, and the article also mentions Yukiteru Ozaki, son of the Minister of Justice in Japan, a member of the Imperial Aero association and a promising young aviator, so this is likely him. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_Smith_(pilot) books.google.com/books?id=FNRLAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA507&l... Ozaki (1888-1964) went on to hold political office and become chairman of Japan Airlines and Honkyu Airlines. books.google.com/books?id=QjS03oqmcFwC&pg=PA129&l...

He was considered to be the most daring American aviator, see e.g. The day book., July 29, 1915, NOON EDITION, Image 11 (with a photo of obviously the same plane). On his tour in Japan he was amazingly not only in danger of crashing, but also of being stoned by an angry mob (Honolulu star-bulletin., May 18, 1916, 3:30 Edition, SPORTS CLASSIFIED AND SHIPPING SECTION, Page THIRTEEN, col. 3, "JAPANESE PRESS HEARS ART SMITH NEAR TO DEATH".

According to www.gettyimages.com, Ozaki is Yukio Ozaki, the 2nd Mayor of Tokyo, which would be this man: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yukio_Ozaki. The man on the photo seems to be younger, though.
