TOXIC, Oct. 14.-While IL is gen.
orally expected that Japan's business,
which is still very much depressed,
will revive considerably with the be-
ginning of next year, it seems that it
will be necessary to take far more
drastic steps to bring this about.
Following the great drop of prices
which took place some months ago and
the great slump in the export trade,
grest congestion of goods has oc-
Cured. This is seen very strikingly
in the large ports, such as Yokohama
and Kobe, where warehouses are crowd
ed to the roofs with goods, ordered
during the boom. when every importer
figured that merchandise he ordered
would increase materially. in value
while in transit. This had become so
common that merchants had come tn
look thereupon almost as fixed law
of trade. Consequently when the
slump in prices occurred, thousands
and thousands of tons of goods ordered
mainly for speculation, arrived. their
prices on arrival being considerably
lewer than when they had been or
dered. The consequence was that in
many cases sthe consignees refused to
accept delivery, while in others they
were unable to secure the necessary
funds from the banks, as these became
extremely tight the moment the bot
toms dropped out. of the market.
Some little relief has been obtained
in some cases. by reshipment of re-
Gently imported goods to foreign
countries. and many a ton of mer-
chandise made the trip back to Ameri-
ca after it had been landed on the
docks of Yokohama or Kobe. The
warehouses remain crowded, however,
and the existing glut becomes. daily
greater as the output of japanese fac
tories continued to add thereto. TIC
offset this the leaders of many indus
tries have restrained their production
by operating only part time or by
closing altogether. Thus the cotton
mills run only 60 per cent capacity.
The one step which seems obviously
necessary, namely, to get rid Of the
glut by selling the accumulated goods
