BUSINESSMEN SAIL
FOR MIKADO'S LAND
Representatives of Pacific Coast
Commercial Organizations
Leave on Teny0 Maru

If the representatives OF the Pacific
coast commercial organizations who
sailed yesterday for Japan receive in
the island kingdom welcome that
corresponds in warmth to the fare
well with which they were nonored
as the Tenyo Maru left the wharf,
they are likely to think Japan a pleas
ant place. The Tenyo Maru sailed
promptly at / o'clock. and among the
up of Pacific coast businessmen, many
of them accompanied py their wives,
some of them by their families.
These businessmen, from this city,
Los Angeles. San Diego, Portland. Eu-
reka and other coast cities, have ac-
cepted the invitation of the chambers
of commerce of a num0er of Japanese
cities to visit Japan and become ac-
quainted so that the future rounds in
the fight for the commercial conquest
of the Pacific may be tinged with good
fellowship.
Hundreds of businessmen lent the de-
parting messengers of good will the
inspiration of their presence at the
wharf Two bands had been engaged
and they played alternately. Hun
dreds of Japanese were there. The
usual goodby delegation was present
and the weather was perfect. One
young woman ueScrlDed the music as
fierce" but there was lot OF il, and
Captain Michael Joseph Conboy of the
police launch said it made him feel
like chief of police.
Shortly before sailing time James
Rolph Jr. president OF the Merchants
exchange, said goodby TO the travellers,
and with Robert Tyson for company
and Carey Friedlander as ballast,
climbed into his automobile and head
ed for the Merchants exchange build
ing.
AS the liner passed down the bay

chants exchange fagstaff a signal of

edged by dipping all its flags The
