DEF, CANAL DE PANAMA
Ell JAPON Sc PREPARA A INVA-
DIR A AMERICA CON dSU
INDUSTRIAL Y CON
EMIGRACION.

Toxic, octubre 19.-El Japon espera
realizar o:anGes avances eli Su conner
clio exterior, como resultado de la aper
tura del Canal de Panama,
Los puertOs de la costa oriental de-
ambas Americas estaran desde luego
abiertos a la COMMUNICATION con ell impe-
rio del oil Naciente, y Sc habran todos
los esfuezos posibles para hallar ALI
mercados las mercanc1as japonesas.
Las actuales Was comerciales entire ell
Jap0n y los puertOs europeos, por ell ca
nal de Suez. no seran afectadas con ell
trafco por la via de Panama Los va
pores japoneses continuaran viajando
por Suez; porque pueden recOger t1etes
convenientes en- muchos puertOs de la
China, de la Italia del Mediterraneo.
POr consiguiente, Sc ha considerable
aqu1 que ser1a perjudicial desviar esos
vapores hacia la via die Panama, pues
no hay carga que llevar nj que recibir
en- la larga travesia por ell oceanO Pacl-
fco
Asi, pues, Sc estableceran nuevas IL
meas para Nueva York y la costa orien-
tai de la America del Sur, donde los ja-
poneses esperan encOntrar grandes mer-
cados para sus art1culos de loza de chi
ma, de laca, tapicer1a de caiiamo y de
otras fbras ordinarias, para su te, etc,
Y tambien para seda en- brute.
Otro resultadO importante de la aper-
tura del canal sera ell que gran parte
de los cargamentos que ahora van a la
costa pacfica de los Estados UnidOs pa
ra seguir die ALI los Estados del Este,
iran ahora directamente Nueva York,
con gran economic de fetes y otros gas
tOs
En- un estudio que ACADIA de hacer a
este respecto ell 'Ministerio de Comercio
japones Sc demuestra que habra ana
economic de cincuenta por 100, hacien-
CO los emf argues directamenta s Nunva
York. en- vez de trasportar la carga a
traves del continente por la via de la
costa .pacffca.
No es sin embargo probable que Sc
efectie un cambio en- cuanto los en-
baruues de seda en- bruto-de cuyo ma
terial Sc export6 el ano pasado para los
Estados Unidos por valor de 57OOO.OO
de d6lares-pues en- razon del recargo
de intereses. los comerciantes exiglran
sus pagos 10 mas pronto posible.En cam
bio. ell menor fete facilitara al Jap6n
una importation mayor de algod0n, de
maquinaria de locomotora.
Otro benefcio importante para ell ia
pom sera la facilidad de enviar directa-
mente al Brasil mas despues, proba-
blemente, a otros pa1ses, los emigrantes
iaponeses que Sc espera iran en- ni1mero
creciente la America del Sur El pa

no satisfactory explanation, The Day
Book tried to see if it could find one
itself. The Day Book at least found
a highly probable explanation. The
explanation was found in Section 9
of the bylaws of the mutual benefit
association, which reads as follows:
"As long as the cash balance per-
nits, without the necessity of an as
sessment upon the members, an ad-
ditionaI death benefit of. an amount
equal to the death benefit to which
the member is entitled shall be paid
members who have been in the asso-
citation at least one year."
Wood was a SIS a week employe;
he paid 55 cents month dues to the
mutual benefit association; his
regular death benefit in this class,
which is class II in the mutual ben
eft association" is $125; but Wood
had been a member of the mutual
benefit association" for four years,
and therefore, if there be sufficient
cash balance in the association, and
there unquestionabIy ought to be,
his estate also is entitled to an addi-
tionaI death benefit of an amount
equal to the death benefit to which
he was entitled; that is to say, Wood
was entitled to an additional death
benefit of $125 or a total death bene-
fit of $3.50.
The Day Book has no information
as to what the cash balance of the
mutual benefit association" is; but
it is indeed strange if it be not more
than $125, and The Day Book there
fore suggests that the mistake" of
the first Sears, Roebuck & Co. en-
ploye who answered the inquiry of
Woods friends was a quite natural
one, which came about because the
employe figured out the death bene-
fit according to the rules and regu-
lations of the mutual benefit asso-
ciation."
Returning to the amount that Hig-

association, the weekly sick benefit
for members of the association be-
longing to class II, to which Wood
belonged, is SLIPS. This also was
given by Higgins as the amount of
the weekly sick benefit which the
association should have, but did not
pay to Wood.
Yet Higgins declared that the total
amount now due to Woods estate for
sick benefits not paid to him is
S111.25. Possibly we are not very
good at figures, but if anyone at
Sears, Roebuck & Co. will tell up
how they discover $111.25 to be
multiple of SLIPS, we shall be greatly
obliged to them. We have failed to
do so.
