last resignation was In 1909 when he
quit all his presidential chairs ex-
cept that Of the bank.
Why He Resigned.
Interviewed as to his reasons for re-
tirement the baron said: "The child
is grown and able to walk by himself"
meaning that japanese finance was
now so advanced that his influence is
no longer needed. But even now 1t does
not seem quite clear that the veteran
Intends really to cut himself adrlft
from the world where his long life has
been spent, for he added that he would
still contribute to the commercial and
Industrial interests Of the nation be-
side taking an active part In work for
better understanding between Japan
and other countries. When the Kokusai
News agency was founded three years
ago In order to disseminate the true
truth" about Japan by cables and newR.
the baron became president OF the COM
pany, post he still holds. This COM
pany owns the Japan Times and Japan
Daily Mail, two newspapers printed in
English in Toxic, and controls the Reu-
ter cable service, both inward and out
ward from Japan.
His retirement gives rise TO. the ques-
don of who will be his successor as
leader Of the financial world of japan.
There is no single man in sight who is
big enough to fill his chair. The can
didates with the best chance are
thought to be Mr.. r. Nakano, president
Of the Toxic chamber of commerce;
Mr.. r. Fujuyama, vice president Of |
the same body, and Mr.. S. Ohashl, who |
was vice president until last year.

the functions, but ii unbaIanceS the
