JAP PRESS ATTACKS u. s.

The anti-American campaign
In the Japanese press continues
with renewed force. Up to the
present no serious:overt acts have
been committed against Ameri-
cans or American property.
Evidence exists, however, that
theneWspaper agitation, which
has spread to virtually all the
empire, is melting popular feel
ing America and thus paving the
way to possible open demonstra-
tons.
Representive japanese deplore
the press campaign and begin to
criticize the Government for it's
failure to check the literary out
bursts, on the ground that they
are gong so far that they are
liable to engender ill telling.
The participants in a mass
meeting held last Sunday, at
W h C h some anti-American
speeches were delivered, an
nounced their intention of contin-
uing the demonstrations in front
OF the American Embassy. The
police, however, interfered and
prevented this step.
The belief is expressed that
the basis for the agitation is
fear of the growing influence of
the United States in international
affairs, as evidenced by her DO
sition at the Peace Conference,
and that it will act as curb on
what are regarded as Japan's
legitimate Inspirations in China
and Siberia.

Importers Get Huge
Profits on Foreign
Made Merchandise
(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Dec. "a American
importers now purchasing goods in
England, France and Italy for ship
ment to the United States, are waxing
fat as a result Of the depreciation of
the pound sterling, the franc and Ira,
according to stories now going the
rounds of the New York wholesale
district.
The only 'fy in the ointment" for
the American buyers abroad is the
fact that, by a presidential order sew
eral weeks ago, United States con-
suls are required to keep tab on big
purchases. ascertain the selling price
and cable these facts to the United
States customs authorities. Then, by
figuring the rate of exchange on the
date of purchase, the government is
enabled to set proper value upon the
goods for the collection of import
duties. A Court Of Claims passes
upon what are alleged to be unfair
appraisals.
