LAPS DECIl. ] ARE NEW SHIPPING
 LAWS UNF AIR

TOKYO, Nov. 2S. Discriminatory shipping laws passed by Great Brit ain and the United States are criU- cizcd by Nr. Y Ito president of the Nippon Yuscn Kaisha Japan Mail steamship Company. in recent dis cussion of the forthcoming Armam- .nt Conference in Washington In the opinion of Mr. Ito. the discrimn- atory laws. notably the preferential freight rates in the United States for goods shipped from the Orient in American bottoms. are worthy of consideration at the Pacific and dis armament conferences
 The countries referred to in Mir. uo's criticism are Austailia, whose coas'wisc shipping laws he feels ar" unjust; the United States. Great Britain and the British Colonies. He makes the claim that the United States. while claiming q desire for "opcn door" policy. and the members of the League of Nations. while Ip- pmnvty approving anti-tradc bar rjcrs. proceed To pass laws which ar. nothing hut the erection of the swtrt.st sop, of trade barriers oratn., JaIau a.I other nations.
 JAPAN CONCERNED
 JaI.u. according 10 Mr. Io. is ,st- ally cnn.ornaj ta keeping her p~os- ont Pacific shipping up ta the stand ard it has reached. TO this end she must watch carefully all discrimin- atory laws and all attempts by other nations to mmstly harm Japanese shipping Mir Ito has recently been called to the presidency of Japan's greatest steamship line. from London, and for that reason he claims to know something of what is going on.
 In addition to the claims he pre- sents against England. for her dis criminatory acts in connection with shipping to her colonies. he alleges that the United States, by making preferential rates for passengers and freight carried from the Orient in American ships, violates one of President Woodrow Wilson's points advanced at Paris, in which the Am orican President declared against the erection of commercial barriers.
 While thee has been expressed no intention to bring this subject up at Washington, it is not improbable that the delegates may decide to do SO
