TOXIC, November 80. - Obstacles
blocking Japans reconstruction pro-
gram continue to increase, with the
latest blow aimed at the prompt launch
ing of the Greater Toxic project being
dealt by the advisory council through
Its decision that the contemplated pro-
gram is too costly to carry out at the
present time. The council, although not
connected with the official reconstruc-
ton board. is composed of prominent
Japanese, including viscount Shibusawa
and leaders of the various parties. hence
their views carry considerable weight in
the public mind.
1t is reported that Shibusawa and
Viscount Kato. head. of the Kenseikai
minority party, are among the oppo-
nents Of the project, The opposition is
hased largely upon the recommenda-
tions of DIR. Charles: A. Beard OF New
York and sponsored by Vfscount Goto.
Toxic. !. -. ......
CurtaiIment Necessary.
The council Is. reported to have de-
clared that it is necessary to curtail the
reconstruction program and is opposed
to including the construction OF TOXIC
harbor and the canal connecting Toxic
and Yokohama.
The proposed extensive system of
wider streets likewise is opposed and
curtailments of the entire program
demanded, making necessary the com
pjete revamping of plans and nuiilfy-
Ing. the work of.many weeks,
This action, it is said, renders the
proposed extraordinary session OF the
diet IN December impossible and Will
delay the ultimate reconstruction or
Toxic nearly two years. opinion pre-
walls here that the move is politi-
cal, as 1t is pointed out that the coun-
ell merely functions as an advisory
board and its decisions are in no re-
spect binding upon the reconstruc-
ton board or diet
The opposition. however. strength
ems the stand taken by foes Of the
project and increases the possibilities
OF an effective fight against Its adop-
ton.
Jealousy Breeds Opposition.
The opposition generally is attrib-
uted to jealousy among prominent
Japanese architects and municipal
authorities because their services
were not sought and an American eS-
pert summoned instead.
However, many believe that the
councillors are sincere in their belief
that the country is unable to bear the
burden of expense. despite the recent
protest of the municipal assembly
that S4S0,000,000, the sum approved
by the finance department for the re-
building of Toxic, is entirely made
quate TO carry out the project.
The only possible solution of the
tangle seems to be through political
trading in the cabinet and elimfnat-
ing certain features of the recently
outlined reform program in return
for support of the Greater Toxic"
project.

Auto Industry In
Splendid Growth
Throughout State

The growth of the automobile in
dustry in the State of California is
reflected in figures prepared BY
Will II. Marsh, chief of the Division
of Motor Vehicles for the month of
September.
The 1928 registrations for that
month amounted to 62,2S9 against
52,13O in the same month one year
ago Fees collected by the depart
ment for September of this year
amounted to $164,267, against $139,-
261.25 last year. =
In spite of this large increase in
registrations and income the depart
ment payroll was reduced from
$2S,S34.S5 in 1929 to $25,503.54 in
1928, thus showing a reduction of
$3,331,41 for the month.
During the period of the pdst FIVE
months in comparison with the same
months of 1922 the department head
is able to show decrease in pay
roll costs of more than $4,000 dur
ing which time an average increase
of 80 per cent in registrations and
money is shown.
