JAPAN AND BIRTH CONTROL
Head of League, Mrs. Margaret Sang CT, Refused Passports Because Her Cult is Against the Law.

Tokio, Feb. 0.-Instructions of the Japanese foreign office to the Japan csc consulate in San Francisco that it refuse to wise the passport of Mrs. Margaret Sanger. head of the Birth Control League, were on the grounds that propaganda along lines she pro- posed was illegal in Japan and an i'm proper subject for public discussion. The foreign offices decision, how ever, it was stated by an official to- day, did not mean that Mrs. Sanger would be denied admission to Japan.
 Yusuke Akamatsu, chief of the im- migration section of the foreign of flee, said today the action taken was intended as a warning to Mrs. Sanger that she would not be permitted to lecture and to forestall any complaint that she did not know the Japanese attitude in advance.
 Statements that she would not be permitted to land in Japan were incor- rect, he declared. On the contrary, she would undoubtedly receive per mission to enter the country, upon the condition that she would not at tempt propaganda.

STUDY ECONOMY OF
 THREE SHIFT PLAN
A Survey to Re Made of tho Twenty Four Hour" Factories to Deter
 mine Its Results.

New York, Feb. 2n.-A survey Of the larger "twenty-four hour indus tries" in this country to learn whether the three shift plan of opera ton is economical, efficient and popu- lar with the worker. has been com pleted by investigators of the Ameri- can engineering council of the federat- ed American engineering society, it was announced here today
 Although the survey did not include the steel industry, where the three shift plan aslbeen generally adopted, it is estimated that more than 500.- 900 men are employed in other in dustries which operate 24 hours each day. These include so-called heat" industries, chemical works heavy or elaborate equipment plants and pub lie service industries.
 The number of men on 1o hour shifts before the present depression was 800, ,o0c the committee points out, emphasizing that American manu- lecturers are substituting the three shift day for the two shit day where ever possible.
 Three shift plants have maintained themselves in tke same markets with two shift plants" the engineers re- port
 Taking the continuous plants as a whole, the immediate effect of going to three shifts probably will be a sub stantisl increase in labor efficiency, but not so great an increase barring exceptional piants--as to permit the paying of as high weekly wages as men would receive for l2 hour work without increasing cost. But it would be possible, without increasing costs, to pay the men weekly wage which, once they had become used to the eight hour shift, they would much prefer to the alternative of 12 hour and 12 hour wage"
