JAP BUSINESS MEN
SEEK RUSSIAN TRADE
Plan For Recognition OF Soviets Is
Being Formulated

TKOIO. June 9.-Busness and pro-
fessional men of Japan who have
been badly hit by the failure of
Japan and Russia to negotiate
commercial treaty. have started
movements to secure another con-
ference between representatives of
the two countries. The Associated
Chambers of Commerce have passed
resolutions urging the resumption
of relations with Russia, and be-
sides pressing their own govern
ment. propose sending delegation
to Moscow to carry on unofficial
negotiations with the soviet.
A plan has been formulated by a
body of prominent business men,
scholars, politicians and others to or
Eanize a large party to travel through
Russia and observe political, eco
and social conditions obtain
ing in that country.
Meanwhile, relations between the
two countries have not been i'm
proved by some recent incidents.
The latest is the refusal of the So
Wet to allow the Japanese consul
at Vladivostok to send cable to his
government in code. This step was
taken because of the refusal Of the
Japanese government to allow Adolf
Joffe, the soviet delegate, to send
code messages to his government
during his visit to Japan.

turn it by a touch of the finger. on
this night the tower was so shaken
by the heavy seas that much of the

scooped up the mercury in their
hands and poured 1t back into the
trough. Pursuing active puddles of

New Estimates Are Made BY
German Statistics On

BERLIN, June 9.-(By Associated

the earth is a total population of
1904 .1S7,631,- only seven per cent of
which is in cities of more than 100 900
compiled here and based largely on
1922 census reports. Only 30 of the
10 nations listed have cities of or
above the 100000 class, which is the
lowest counted within the classified

Approximately 100000 of the

the smaller large cities, of which
there are only 1913 in the whole world.
The average large city is said to
number some $4,000 souls. From
these figures, it is stated every
forty fifth human resides in cities
housing millions, while every four
teenth finds his home in large city
of some sort.
New York is given as the largest
city in the world, with a population
of 5.620.04S. London is second with

PRICE FIXING ILLEGAL
"ExcIusive Agent" Crossed Off Kan.
sas Business Lexicon

TOPEKA. Kan, June 9.-By Asso-
ciated Press.)-The trade term Tex
elusive agent" has just about been
crtssed off the Kansas business lexi-
con through a recent decision of the
supreme court. AS result so-called
agents contracts are undergoing a
general revision to place them on a
more sound basis, dealers assert. The
courts decision was that all fixed
price contracts between manufactur-
ers, wholesalers. jobbers and general
distributors on the one hand and re-
tail agencies on the other are illegal.
Charles G. Mills of Sedgwick coun-
ty sued the General Ordnance COM
pany for breach of contract. He
claimed he had a contract as exclu-
sive agent in given territory to sell
the rompany's traitors at a specified
price, and that the company had vio-
lated the contract by making deliv-
cries within his territory at less than
the fixed price. Both the lower court
and the supreme court held that such
contract was illegal and therefore
the agent had no standing in court.

SUBWAY SHYLOCKS TO
WOO GERMAN MARKS
Money Changing Booths Found At
Every Turn In Berlin

BERLIN, June 9.-(By Associated
Press. )-Since the mark began palpi-
tating uncertainty from one day to
undetermined, from one hour to
another-Berlin has undergone a
mushroom growth Cf small exchange
establishments along streets all over
the city. The tourist, looking for a
place to convert quickly his good
American dollars. English pounds, or
other currency, does not need tt make
a lengthy search. for he runs into a
money changing booth at almost
every turn, even In the midway
promenade and driving sections of the
boulevards.
Now an enterprising shylock has
hit upon the happy idea of setting
up exchange shops at transfer points
On the underground and elevated
railways. The logic is simple: The
alert business man enters his home
station and buys a morning paper;
he finds the mark is rising, or fall
ing; his office may be a half hour
away, too far to permit keeping pace
with the exchange: at the transfer
point he can sell short" If necessary,
or buy at liberal margin, without
the necessity of awaiting his trains
arrival downtown.
The first of these new establish
ments to put in an appearance is at
the metre politan subdivision of
Schoeneberg, where trains from the
fashionable West End meet those
from the traders residential district
in southwestern Berlin. The authori
ties have granted an exchange dealer
10-year lease on part of the sta
ton. The basic annual rent viii be
$50, 900 marks (about $40 when the
contract was made), changeable in
accordance with changes in the buy
ing power of the mark.

INDIA PROTESTS DUTY
Declare Important Class Is Being
Denied OF Vehicles

CALCUTTA, June 9.-(By Associ-
ated Press.)-The imposition of 80
per cent import duty on motor We
hcles coming into British India has
brought out a vigorous protest from
the India Motor Trade association.
The argument is advanced that an
enormous class in urgent need of
modern transportation, has been pre-
cluded from buying, and that the
lower priced American cars are not
meeting the situation. Motor i'm
ports were lower in 1922 than in
1914. 1915 and 1916.
The development of road trans
port is of special Importance in
country with limited railroads, the
association says. and India will suf-
fer serious consequences if this re-
striction upon the industrial develop
ment of the country is not removed.
