JAPAN FISCAL YEAR
 PROVED POOR ONE
TOkiO Bankers Prediction of Fu-
 lure Is Anything But Bright

Tokio. April ec.-The great difi- eulties of Japan's economic situation were outlined by otohiko Ichiki, gov ernor of the Bank of Japan. in a re- cent address before the annual meet ing of the bank of Tolsio.
 Mir. Ichiki, after reviewing Japan's year of disaster, 1923, drew a not very hopeful picture of the future. "In this difficult situation" he said. it is of utmost importance that united effort be made by the government and peo- pie for the economic rehabilitation of the country and the development of our overseas trade in the same spirit of fortitude shown in the time of the earthquake calamity.
 Tt Is four years since Japan began 10 pass through post war depression. The preceding period of prosperity had left a crop of economic abuses, which persisted up to the time of the disaster. To make matters worse, in our foreign trade. which is Of vital importance 10 us, imports had already greatly exceeded exports during the first eights months of the year, and moreover the import of a large amount of reconstruction materials had to be anticipated. The prospect Of the export trade, on the other hand, gives but moderate hope, for, except. ing the United States and Great Brit ain, all the occidental countries are so deeply involved in economic and po- litical chaos that there is little hope for a recovery of business: while. with China, the South Seas, India and Australia, no great or immediate ex- pansion of our export trade, can be expected"

He had little time for the sort Of schooling we provide for our children today. The Providence Journal says former Governor Glynn, Of New York, called Al Smith "a grad nate of the University of Nature" and the characterization fits well if we consider nature" the busy, ever changing. often hectic life in the world of New York human beings.
 Ii was 1905 that he went to the New York state legislature, and ii was there that his quickncss Of mind. practical because he had a practical foundation Of experience behind him, became most evident. His almost in genious ability to see straight 10 the point made him force strengthened by his popularity. His friendships were by no means limited to his po- litical allies; republicans as well as democrats recognized not only his per sonal good points, but the soundness of his reasoning. Nor was his the sort of popularity which appeals only to the hand-shaking. shaping on-the- back type of men. Dignitied, old school democrats paid him sincere compliments when he went as mem her of the state constitutional conven- ton. Elihu Root himself has spoken of him in commendation, and even the staunchly republican New York Tri- bune, at that time, took occasion to epphRsze the value Of his work for New York city in his activities in the legislature. -.
 Al Smith was president Of the New York board of aldermen in 1917, and since has been twice governor of the state, one of the best that state ever had, and defeating. at the last cleo ton, another of the states best" Al smith did not have the early advantages which would have aided him undoubtedly, but his inborn ability 10 lead more than makes up for his loss when such leadership Is based upon the sound, logical mind this man appears to possess. A politl- cally informed traveller through the south is reported to have declared that he can not be nominated. His stand on the wet" issue is being mem toned as his greatest handicap, and the fact that he is Roman Catholic will initiate against him, 1t is said. His membership in Tammany Hall is another drawback as far as the people outside of the city Of New York is con- cerned.
 Al Smith may not be the candidate; may moi be elected were he to be named. But it speaks we'll for this country that man such as he, begin ming where he began. and bearing tho handicars he has borne, can reach the position he holds in the popular esteem,
