JAP IMPORTS
ARE INCREASED

Tokio.-The empires foreign trade
for the first half OF the current year
resulted In an excess Of import over
export to the gross amount Of $685.
10000 yen. the former aggregating
1.1oa,6e6.0o yen as against tho lat
ter totaling 7~35.19e,0oO Q =.
This adverse tendency Of the first
halt years trade. however. was ac-
compahted by a reaSsurin8 feature
each month showing a more advau-
tagecus balance Of trade.
In reviewing Nthe tendency OF the
empires foreign trade during the first
half year of 1922. economic experts
and Critics are at once unanimous In
concluding that the situation does not
yet admit Of any too optimistic views
with reference to the future prospects
of the countrys trade. because the
+ebbing q excessive import itself. The
decline Of import Is attributable
largely to the practical exhaustion Of
tho specie reserves abroad OF the
Japanese exchange banks. This cause
has, however, been removed nov az a
consequence OF the brisk export Of
raw silk. thereby releasing tho issue
OF nle drafts and letters Of credit by
the exchange banks to the encourage
msnt OF import trade once again.

proved unavaiiing, IT has become
rather. intense Of late since the motor
bus Companies. have become import
ant competitors not only for the pas
senger business but for freight. This
10 also a development OF the strike,
during which British bu1lness men
discovered that they could often ship
their goods more economically AZ we'll
as more expeditiously by motor lorry.
When the strike was over they contin-
ued to heed this lesson. So a large
number OF British firnAl are using mo-
tor transportation almost entirely.
Some OF them own and operate their
own lorries, while others contract
with the new commercial trucking
companies to do their work for them.
It is obvious that there are many
obstacles In the way of extensive mo-
tor transportation in this country that
are not encountered in Great Britain,
The distances here are much greater:
a much larger number Of people own
their own cars, and the railroads are
in better standing With the public than
those of the British Isles. Yet even
here,the motor truck, a. a freight car
rier, has greatly increased its scope
in the, past Few years.

Are You Preparing for Old Age?

Supposing your salary was cut 5:

expenses to meet the cut?
You know you would have to re-
duce expenses, if the money were not
forthcoming, but you find it impos'
sible to save that much now, each
week.
1t would be necessary to deny
yourself some of the pleasures you
now enjoy and you would have to
do away with some of the things you
row consider necessities.
Why not get in line for retrenc!l-

Your salary may not be reduced
FOR some time, but there is necessity
for every man to save a certain pro-
portion of his earnings during the
time that he can command good

Why not go without some Of the

neither in improved service nor in
increased safety. 1t was all dead
loss-money as completely gone in
sheer waste as if it had gone up

The Associated Railroads of New
Jersey, in suggesting to the people
of the State the importance of putting
an end to this senseless squander,
offer a bill which amply guards the
safety of the travelling public. De-
termination of the number of men
necessary to run trains is not left to
the railroads. 1t is left to the de-
cision of the Board of Public Utility
commissioners. On that board is put
the responsibility of seeing to it that
every train in the State is properly
manned.
In place of the present blanket law,
which applies irrespective of varying
conditions and essential differences
in train operation and services, one is
proposed which would vest in selected
and responsible guardians of the pub
lie full authority to compel the man

To THE New YORK HERALD: The ESQ
nurses on the staff of the Visiting Nurs-

unusual conditions in the city. They
are spending themselves without reser-
walton. After making eighteen calls on

with a temperature of 103. She her
self had become a victim of the dis
ease she was helping to neal. Another
nurse broke her arm while on her way
to little child i'll with pneumonia. She
pinned her sleeve to her coat to keep
the painful arm from dangling and pro-
ceeded to her patient. giving such care
as she could with her right hand until
another nurse could he obtained.
