TOKYO, July 10.-The outlook for business in Japan continues dis quieting," according to the annual report of I. Bickart, chairman of the Tokio-Y Yokohama Foreign Board of Trade. The year has not been so bad as was anticipated, he pointed out; the volume of business was smaller but with fewer claims on account of exports and better de liveries of imports.
 In most countries considerable de- clines in values have followed the war boom, and wages have been drastically cut, but in Japan the con- trary exists; wages in most cases are higher than ever, and there is no tendency to lower the cost of living, while Japanese goods are generally of very inferior quality.
 Bickart condemned disturbed labor conditions, the spirit of gambling, the governments policy of trying to maintain high prices, the work ot customs officials and the ineffciency of the. Postal Department as ad- verse factors which firms doing bus mess have to contend with.
 GAMBLING CONDEMNED
 Among the adverse conditions is the spirit of gambling, which to a considerable extent has been encour aged by the ultra -protectionist pob- icy pursued by the Japanese goVern- men and seriously interferes with the transaction of legitimate busi- ness," he declared in his report. "The manipulation of the raw silk market is striking instance of what is possible when the govern ment decides that the price of any article is to be maintained on an ar tificial level. The law of supply and demand is not permitted to govern the regulation of values.
 "The government officials are clamoring loudly for the putting
