Bassompierre advised his home gov
ernment that he thought party of
Belgian business men should come to
Japan and see trade conditions for
themselves. This the Belgian diplo-
mat scaid was due to the fact that
since the war the trade of his coun-
try with Japan had grown consid-
erably. AS matter of fact only Ger
many and Belgium showed increases
in their reports for 1921 to this coun-
try over those of the preceding year
At the present time there are very
few Belgian business houses in this
country, yet the trade continues to
grow and the object of the mission in
visiting this contry is to get first hand
information as to actual conditions SO
that future business MAJ be handled
more intelligcntly.

Jumbled Cities

Avoidance and correction Of the
present topsy-turvy arrangement of
so many American cities, the cause of
millions of dollars loss, is the object
of "a Zoning Primer" issued by the
Division Of Building and Housing Of
the Department of Commerce, accord
ing to an official announcement today.
The enormous waste in American
cities from scrapping good buildings
on account of the blighting of dis
tricts has long been apparent, and for
years has levied it's tax on the Amer
lean people.
Random crowding of stores among
private dwellings. the elbowing of
factories and noisy smelly garages
into the rightful domains of neat re-
tail stores or well-kept apartment
houses, and the construction of tall,
bulky Office buildings so closely crowd
ed that the lower floors are too dark
for human use and consequently sell
dom occupied, is. part of the present

If one is to believe stories of Villas
heavy investments in oil drilling out
fits and his rumored plans to rebuild
stockyard and packing house at
Cuidad Juarez which his men de-
stroyed several years ago, there is
reason to think that the Canutillo
farmer is just that and nothing more.
On the other hand, visitors at the
ranch say that the Canutillo arsenal
is well supplied with arms and am
munition. But, as they say, Villa
must arm himself to protect his ranch
from bandits.

Japan Faces Land Problem

Osaka, Japan, June 26.-As i'm most
countries with large tenants farmer
population Japan is faced with land
problem. In recent months, in sew
eral parts of the country but cSpec-
tally in Osaka and Kyushu prcfctures
the tenants have been returning the
land to the owners because of the lat
ter's refusal to grant them larger
percentage of the crops, the farms be.
ing worked on the share system
These tenants claim that under the
present system, with long hours anG
arduous work, the earnings of fam.
lily averages $11 monthly.
The land owners on the other hant
claim that besides raising much OF
their own food on the land the tenants
have the income from by-products
which increases their earnings consid.
erably but against this the farmers
offset the increased cost of fertilizers
large quantities of which have to be
used all over Japan, and irrigation.
Some of the owners are proposins
to farm their own land and are max

for sowing or planting which in cas-,

Is Villa a Friend
Of the Government Z?

Mexico City, June 28.-Despite his
repeated assurances that he is no
longer bandit but gentleman far.
mer of the state of Durango, the
movements of Francisco Villa are
being closely watched in official
circles here. To some observers it
is difficult to believe that this former
guerrilla has accustomed himself to
the routine of ranch life and is now
finding in his growing crops and
lowing herds the contentment that a
man of his tremendous nervous en-
ergfy derived in the past from daring
deeds of warfare.
Is Villa the staunch friend of the
Obregon administration that his
friends claim for him? Will Villa
stay out of politics and play no part
in the forthcoming congressional
elections? In the event of a serious
threat against Obregon's power
would Villa rally his 1000 ranchers
in behalf of the president or would
he lead his men in a new revolution :?
These are the frequent questions of
the street here and the answers are
as varied as those who make reply.
The pacification of Villa is pro-
claimed by the friends of Provisional
President de la Huerta as the one big
achievement Of his short administra-
tion in 1920. To secure the peace
pact with the famous bandit it was
necessary for the Mexican govern
ment to grant him an extensive tract
of land on which his faithful follow
ers, numbering some 1000, might
work and prosper. There was also a
transfer of considerable cash which
Villa said he needed to develop his
new ranches. 1t is also understood
that one of the stipulations of the
agreement was that Villa was to
stay out of politics.
Villa settled in the state of Duran
go and the few persons who have
visited his hacienda report that he is
an enthusiastic farmer. Of late, how
ever, stories have been creeping out

facts, the uncertainty of Villas ac-
tion is causing considerable comment

New York, June 29.-Prohibition
has been a big factor in cutting down
poverty in families, according to sta
tistics just issued by the American
Association for Organizing Family
Social Work of New York and the
Boston Family Welfare Society. In
ten of the II cities listed, however,
there were more families under care
during the "dry year" than in the
"wet" year.
Mrs. William T. Tilton, chairman
of the Boston society. declares that
figures in the survey which she con-
Quoted, prove that there has been q
reduction of 85 percent in cases where
drink was factor in the poverty of
the families included.
"Such good results under partial
enforcement" she continued, "are
significant of what we may expec.
when the dry law is properly enforc-
ed. They are not just statistics, but
they represent human beings made
happier by the absence of intoxicants
from their lives"
New York city, according to the
figures has shown reduction of Ga
percent, the years used being 1917
and 1921. Rochester's reduction is
