Distribution of Emigrants.

Although the emigration Of japanese
to the United States has been practically
stopped by what is known as the gen
tlemen's agreement" the exodus of emil
grants to South America is increasing.
One of the principal causes of this is the
esta blishment of the Brazilian Coloni-
cation Company by Baron Shibusawa and
Of lands in Brazil An agreement with
the Brazilian government provides for
the settlement of 1000 Japanese families
in Brazil for the next four years, and "a

The new woman question has come
to the fore in Japan just as it has in the
occident and has aroused almost as much
attention as the woman's rights problem
in foreign lands.
The Japanese woman. compared to her
sisters abroad, has occupied a modest
place in the life of the empire and has
been held greatly in subsection. But
advanced opinion agrees that the jap
anese woman is entitled to greater free
dom and wider Intellectual activities than
hitherto has been allowed her

These new women do not clearly

sex They have their own publications
and occasionally arrange public meetings
for the propagation of their ideas. They

saws nothing on that point.
For the time opposition to the insur-

the principal political capital of the con-

III all men We're perfectly honest
schemes like the liberal government in
surance act might be ideal schemes. But
the Few months in which the act has been

amount of feigned illness among the in
sured is becoming a great scandal IN
this respect Great Britain Is repeating
the experience Of Germany. which fur
nished the model for the Lloyd George
bill The Germans have invented a new
word for the Illness Of the government
insured. and some similar word will be
needed in ENGLAND soon.
Some employers who pay small wages
find that the number OF employees absent
from work on account of alleged Illness is
from twice to ten times the number un
der former conditions. before 'workmen
and women were assured OF 10 shillings
a week whenever they laid off The doc
tors agree that there is an enormous
amount of maiingering. but have not yet
discovered any cure. Many people con-
slider that a week Of leisure. with an in
come of 10 shillings. is justifable holt
day. When the official doctor asserts
that they are not i'll they begin to de-
nounce the act as a fraud and make po-
'itical capital out of 1t. Conservative

complaints from the insured that the in

value of sugar imported from foreign
countries during the fiscal year 1913
was $104, 1923; and of that coming
from Hawaii, S36607, $50; from Porto
Rico, S26,61915S; and from the Phil
ippines, S4,593,1 1875, the latter, however,
being included in the figures of i'm
ports from foreign countries. The
average value per pound of the sugar
imported from foreign countries in the
fiscal year 1913 was,2 cents, against
PSI cents in 1912, 2.46 cents in 1911,
and &c cents in 1910
These figures, which show that the
sugar imported in 1913 exceeded that
of any other year, suggest that the
sugar consumption of the United
States in 1913 will be larger than ever
before and will, for the first time, eX-
coed S billion pounds. The quantity
brought from foreign countries is
about 424 billion pouI DIS, and from
Hawaii and Porto Rico nearly 2 bill
lion, while the domestic production
now Appropriated 2 billion pounds,
the figures for 1912 being, of beet
sugar about 1,204 million pounds, and
of cane sugar, 724 million pounds.
Speaking in very round terms, it may
be said that foreign countries supply
approximately one-haif Of the sugar
consumed in the United States, our
own islands about one-fourth, and our
own fields about one-fourth. Cuba
supplies nine-tenths of that from
abroad; Hawaii, about one-half of that
from our islands; and beets, nearly
two-thirds of that produced at home.
Sugar from Cuba makes its highest
record in 1913, 4,311,744,043 pound }
aPainst 3,5O9,657,59 pounds in the
former high-recoTd year, 1910, while
that from the Dutch East Indies
principally java makes its lowest
record in many years, being but 12,-
1876 pounds, against 340,396, 410
pounds in 1912, 916,S5S 331 pounds in
1909, and 1,162, 202,85A pounds in 1900.
Figures indicate that the United
States is clearly at the head of the
list of sugar-consuming countries, the
figures CT the current year suggesting
a consumption OF more than 8 billion
pounds while the latest available fig
ures indicate a consumption in India
of about billion pounds, in Great
Britain over 3% billion, Russia, bill,
lion, and Germany pa billion pounds
