JAPAN TO ALLOW FOREIGNERS
TO OWN LAND---PROVIDED


TOXIC, Feb. 21.-Government
supporters procured the introduce
ton CT bill in the house today
to enable foreigners in Japan to
own land. The principal restric-
tion in the bill is that the privilege
of land ownership shall not be ex-
tended to those whose nation does
not permit Japanese to own land.
Another limitation in the bill
is that no foreigners shall be al
lowed to own land in Hokkaido,
Formosa, Sakhalin or other stra-
tegetic places of defense.
The presentation of the bill is
regarded as a result of represen-
tations made to the Japanese gov
eminent by the United States and
several European nations, whose
citizens have complained Of the
restriction in Japan.
