Speaking OF the latest develop

Sir Percy explained the principles Of

said all American airplanes were

for an airpplanc to carry l2-inch

Japanese Trade ENJOYS
Due in u. S. This Week
Hoped Visit Will Tend to Aid
in Settling the Far
East Trade

One Of the most important bust
ness adventures since the war is the
way some leaders of industry here
regard the arrival at Seattle of a
party of Japanese commercial leaders,
who will spend forty-ive days in the
United States, journeying from coast
to coast.
The party, due next Thursday from
Yokohama on the Kashima Maru, num-
bers twenty three, headed by DR.. Ia
kuma Dan, general managing director
of the combined Mitsui interests and
graduate of the Massachusetts, In
stitute of Technology. Their visit re-
turns those made to Japan by three
American groups within The last eigh-
teen months. Besides comforting with
chambers of commerce throughout the
country, the delegation while in Wash
ington will meet President Harding
and his Cabinet.
New Workers have arranged an ex-
traordinary reception for the visitors.
Industrial leaders here hope that, as
result of informal conferences. the
United States and Japan will take the
initiative in an international adjust
ment of trade relations in the Far East.
The delegation will visit Seattle, Cnl-
cago. New York, Boston, Pittsburgh, St.
Louis and Washington, with supple
mentary trips to Duluth, Gary, Fort

sionally developments occur according
to form. The process of credit defla-
tion--and the related rise in bond QUO
tations--has been as expected. The
forecast tendency toward easement has
come to pass. Last week, speculative
borrowers were able to supply their
needs with unusual facility. A 8M
per cent rate on call loans was quoted
in the market outside tho exchange for
four consecutive days, during which
period the rate quoted at the Stock Ex-
change was as low as per cent and
4 u per cent for renewals, The best
measure Of the improvement in the
general credit structure Is the latest
statement of the Federal Reserve svs-
tenn which reveals the highest reserve
ratio since October, 1917. The indica-
tion for future months is for contin-
uation of terms favorable to borrowers
Investment security prices have been
we'll maintained despite the depressing
effects Of the railroad labor develop
ments in recent days. The fact that
the country's arteries of transporta-
tion are threatened with a tie-up has
not checked the flow of new security
issues to any appreciable degree.
Moreover, the demand for outstanding
issues has been we'll maintained and
it is worth noting that last week the
market in tax-exempt bonds developed
the most vigorous strength in months.
The increased interest here may have
been due to desire of investors to get
away from railroad and other bonds
that might be affected seriously by
strike. At any rate, the market for
prime state and municipal bonds ad-
vanced close to 5 per cent yield
basis. Four months ago the basis was
51a per cent.

ago price Of railroad shares had re-
vcaled no net loss as result Of the
announcement by the brotherhoods
that work would halt on October 80 as
protest against defation Of wages.
As matter Of fact, the weakness Of
the rail shares came in advance of the
news. which was followed by a period
Of firmness, after the moderate reac-
tion on Monday. The failure on
Thursday Of the Railroad Labor Board
to attain fruitful results in the matter
Of having the strike order Cancelled re-
suited in another reaction, which
tended to Offset the gains of the pre-
vious three days.
Through the stock market, the finan-
cial community expressed its lack of
alarm over the situation. On the other
hand, aside from the politics and alb
stract justice of the situation, pros
pective purchasers Of railroad shares
are beginning to wonder whether the
adjustment Of the present tangle will
interfere with the Improvement in net
earnings which has been manifest since
July l, when the wage decrease be-
came effective. The stock market last
week indicated feeling that the out
come would not be unfavorable to
stockholders.
Two approaches were made on Satur-
day to the problem of debating freight
rates. The first was the announcement
by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Of a reduction of one-half of the
additional burden placed on wheat
growers in 1920 by the rate increases.
The downward readjustment, amount
ing to approximately 16 per cent, ap-
plies only to grain, grain products and
hay. It is designed to give immediate
relief to farmers. The second develop
ment was the announcement by the
United States Steel Corporation of a
reduction Of 81 ton on standard steel
rail prices, bringing them to within
$12 ton Of pre-war prices. The change
will make the railroad dollar go fur
ther on the purchasing side. Both Of
the events touch only few aspects Of
the whole problem, which is many
sided. They indicate the trend, how
ever.
To the effort Of Mid-Western Gov
ernors and sundry Congressman to have
stricken from the transportation act of
1920 the provision asking the Inter
state Commerce Commission to make
rates such that groups of roads will
earn between 51s and per cent on their
property investment, the National As
sociation of Owners Of Railroad Sc
curities replies that the repeal Of this
declaration Of policy would make sue
cessful private operation of the roads
an utter inpossibilty. The associa-
tion also asserts that the provision,
which is statement of intention and
not a guaranty, does not stand as a
barrier against lower rates and theo-
retically, at least, it proves it's case
conclusively.
The ruthlessness Of the event fre-
quently demolishes the predictions of
financial soothsayers. And yet occa-
