JAPS PLANNING GREAT
TUNNEL UNDER STRAIT
By United Press.

By United Press.
Tokyo-(By maiD Officials of the
imperial government railways have
decided to run a submarine tunnel
through the Shimonoseki-Moji strait.
The work will be started this year.
and it is expected it will require nine
or ten years to complete it.
At present the railway systems of
Honshu, which is the main island of
the empire, and Kyushu are connect
ed by ferry.
The cost of the tunnel, il is esti-
mated, will be about 20,000,00 yen.
It's construction will be attended by
greater difficulties than the English
channel where geological formation
is simpler and better understood Elk.
perts and workmen who will be EN-.
ployed on the undertaking will be
sent to Europe and America to study
similar engineering feats.
