That means that Mendon will
be one point for shipment. Word
also comes from that same part
of the county that some are hold
ing off thinking they can maybe
get a higher price than the sale
price will be. We expect to give
any body a chance to bid on the
wool who desires to do so, and
if the local buyer can submit the
best aid he will be the man to
get it. The local committee IN
charge of the sale can reject all
bids if they see fit to do So.
There are others who will try
to get the benefits, but who are
not willing to aid in the work of
I getting them. In other words
they seem to want something
for nothing, and that is man
who is in reality worth little to
his community. He balls and
belly aches about not getting a
square deal, but is too narrow to
help in getting it for himself or
for others.
We surely do net want men of
this callibre in the pool for they
would never be satisfied no mat
ter how the sale might go.
We want to hear from each
committee by the tenth of
this month that arrangements
for further work may go on. AS
soon as we know how much is
consigned and where we can
then say where the wool will be
assembled, and complete arrange
ments for having the wool deliv-
cred and graded.
If you want to yet in the
pool you had better see the
committee for your commun.
ity, and make your consign.
Ement. It will without doubt
be the rule that no WOO
can be sold in the pool that is
: not regularly consigned. This
was allowed last year, but we
think it will not be in the future.
If you want the benefits, do your
part, or stay out.

Dusseldorf, May 1o.-A Japanese
banking concern has opened a
branch at Essen and. together with
Dutch financiers,. has been neavry
buying marks throughout the Ruhr
area. The result has been to force
up the value of the mark. but what
effect 1t win have on exchange is
still a. matter of conjecture.
There Is evidence that the Japa-
nese are interesting themselves.
both financially and practically, in
leading munition firms of the Ruhr
and That ther. have been many con-
fereDSes at Krupp's recently that
give strength to the suspicion that
the japanese will be a fnanciai
power in this famous armament
firm.
Ruhr Firms Need Money.
Some of the firms in the Ruhr are
financially distressed. Erhardts
the second largest armament firm of
the Ruhr, who absorbed several
small firms during the war until
their factories extended over sixty
acres, were forced to borrow money
recently to pay their workmen. and
the rush OF Japanese and Dutch
ffnanciers to the Ruhr suggests that
they are anxious to help these firms
over bad times.
The Japanese curiously preserve
considerable secrecy as to their rea-
son for coming to Essen. Travelling
down on the Berlin Cologne express
last night from Hanover, five Jape-
nese offered me the only vacant seat
in the carriage. They inquired who
1 was and where was ! going.
asked them who they were and
whittier they were bound.
I'VE are going to Paris" one OF
them said. and asked me what din
culties there might be in travelling
through the British occupied zone.
But they all left the train at Gel
senkirchen to change for Essen and
a curious. enigmatic smile was all
that rewarded my look of surprise
The invasion OF Japanese imam
ciers has naturally aroused the al

why they are at Essen. The finan-
cial reasons do not entirely satisfy
