BUS PASS BOOK TEST
EXTENSION APPROVED
Public Utilities Commission to
Allow Use of System for An
other Ten Weeks.

An application by the Washington
Rapid Transit Co. for further ex-
tension of the use Of weekly transpor-
tation passes on its line was approved
yesterday by the Public Utilities Com
mission.
The company was permitted to con-
tinue the system for a further trial
for period Of 10 weeks, beginning
February rs. Under this system, pas
sengers of the bus company may pur-
chase general tickets for $l.25 q week
for unlimited use of the buses, or an
alternative pass book costing so cents
a week, for the use of shoppers and
theater-goers. The latter passes may
not be used during rush hours.
The pass book system for the bus
lines was started in October, 1881, for
an original trial period which several
times since has been extended. There
has been no change in the general
use pass book charges of $1.25 week,
but the shoppers pass book charges,
originally rs cents a week, later was
made SO cents week and now stands

WINTER IN JEHOL
HELD DDR|VEFACTOR
Japanese Declared Taking
Advantage of Cold in
Fastening Campaign.
By the Associated Press.

0y LIle hSSOClaIeQ HreSS.
Japan's apparent haste to occupy Je-
hol Province is attributed by foreign
military observers to a desire to move
troops, food and munitions while the
primitive highways are still frozen.
Zero weather prevails in much of the
territory through which the combined
forces of Japan and Manchukuo must
move to take Chihfeng, Jehol City and
other strategic points.
Withstand Cold Weather.
But the japanese demonstrated in
their recent movement which swept the
Chinese forces out of the western zone
of the Chinese Eastern Railway across
the border at Manchuli into Siberia
that cold weather holds little terror for
them.
in a temperature 40 below zero. The
troops relied largely on the railway for
transportation, but the fur-clad troops
frequently employed their own motor
transport when rail transportation was
interrupted.
The Japanese and Manchukuo troops
are concentrated along the Eastern
boundary of Jehol for distance of
nearly 200 miles, the line extending
from the Great Wall at Shanhaikwan
to Kailu.
Centered at Shanhaikwan.
The largest forces are centered at
Shanhaikwan, to prevent the Chinese
from moving into Manchuria from
North China, and at the Kailu entrance
to Northeastern Jehol.
1t is expected by observers that the
Tor nI, Ylrrs1
troops will move into Jehol along sew
eral Of the available highways at the
same time toward Chihfeng and Jehol
City and drive the Chinese out by air
plane attacks, followed by light artil-
lery bombardment.

JAPAN'S FINANCES
ARE HELD SOUND
Situation Is Causing No Un-
due Worry in Wall
Street.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 21.-Although
Japanese bonds and yen exchange re-
Gently have been under pressure, fol-
lowing the League of Nations reaction
to the Manchurian situation, Wall
Street observers say they are not un-
duly worried by the island empires
financial situation.
That the United States is particu-
larly interested in the japanese picture
is shown by the fact that, even with
the restricted trade of last year, Amer
ican sales to Japan totaled $134, 4,537, 900,
against purchases Of S134,011 900.
Japans sales to the United States are
Britain and twice as much as to China.
Gold Explorations Reported.
Japan's direct and guaranteed foreign
obligations aggregate some $1,000, ,000,-
600, but, it is pointed out, around half
of this debt Is owned by Japanese ma
tionals. The Japanese-owned foreign
bonds, under q governmental decree,
can be taken over by the empire and
paid for in yen. Including foreign in
terest, dividends, ETC., it is estimated
that Japan can get by with the pay
ment abroad of annual charges amount
ing to roughly $36000,000.
In addition to Japan's invisible ex-
ports and other means of obtaining
foreign exchange, the country has been
mining gold In Northern Korea to the
extent of some $4,000, 900 yearly. There
have been rumors also that large gold
explorations have been under way in
Manchukuo.
With the Japanese confronted by
prospects of serious situation in
China, military and financial observers
are inclined to think that the empire,
knowing its need for gold In any ex-
tensive war venture, may possibly have
accumulated fund of the metal whose
value does not appear in published
figures. While these are, of course,
merely rumors, the Bank Of Japan has
officially reported its gold holdings at
around 100000.
At the same time, due to the deprecia-
ton of the yen following abandonment
of the gold standard in 1881, Japan's
external direct and guaranteed debt
service costs some ITO per cen. more
in the countrys currency thar 1t did
when the yen was at par.
The present ratio of Japar's note
issue to gold holdings is about the
same as England's. Some bankers feel,
however, that the japanese may have
to resort to currency imitation if further
military necessities arise due to the
Chinese situation and it Is found that
governmental expenditures cannot be
retrenched to any substantial extent.

Japan BUYS FIVE
OLD BRITISH SHIPS
Antiquated Liners Including
Baltic Acquired for Scrap
ping PURPOSES.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, February 21.-Intense
speculation in Great Britain in view
of present conditions in the Far East
has been aroused regarding the ulti-
mate destiny of a number of anti
quated British liners which have been
sold to Japanese interests for scrap
ping purposes and are being sent to
Japan.
Five of these. among them the famous
transatlantic vessel Baltic and others,
such as the Coronia and Megantic,
nearly as well known, already are re-
ported enroute to Japan. 1t was pointed
out in the press, which is featuring
this development in connection with the
Far Eastern situation, that large guam
titles of metal are contained in these
ships which would be easily transform
able into guns, shells and other war
munitions. -
Could Be Used as TRANSPORT.
1t also was noted that although the
vessels were sold for scrapping, it was
not impossible that the better preserved
ships might be utilized for troop trans
ports should an emergency SO dictate.
This is particularly realizable since
it was understood that at least some of
the ships remain untouched and that
they were sailing Shipshape and intact,
just as on their former transatlantic
voyages.

OzAK| ON ARRIVAL
Police Block Two Attacks as
Japanese Leader Awaits
Death.

BY the Associated Press.
KOBE, Japan, February 21.-Police
thwarted two attempts by reactionaries
upon the life of Yukio Ozaki, veteran
Liberal leader. when he arrived home
today from long stay abroad.
The 73-year-old disarmament cham
pion and ex-mayor Of Toxic had said,
when leaving London more than a
month ago, that he knew certain assas-
sination awaited him in Japan. But,
he wrote his son, he would "die with
a smile''
When the Terukuni Maru from Lon
don, with Ozaki aboard, docked here
this morning. police detained three

ing to board the liner to see Ozaki.
Escapes Unframed.
Later, as Ozah stepped to the pier,
two youths brandishing clubs attempt
ed to reach him, but police intervened,
arresting the assailants, and Ozaki
escaped unharmed.
An attempt was made to assassinate
Ozaki in January, 1917, when he de-
manded the resignation of the Terauchi
cabinet, following one in which he was
justice minister. Two men with drawn
swords jumped on the platform where
Ozaki was speaking, but were over

The main Japanese force pressing
westward from here was at the gates
OF Nanling today. Peipiao, terminus of
a railway from here, was expected to
be occupied shortly thereafter without
serious opposition by Chinese defenders.
Then the japanese army will be
ready to strike at Chaoyang, the sec

A Japanese garrison stationed at
Chaoyangssu battled with the Chinese
last night while the main japanese
force, under Gen. Yoshimichi Suzuki,
who captured the Chinese city of Shan
haikwan last January 8, poured into
the province without a hitch in its
movement.
The japanese, who have held Chao-

they would encounter any real opposi-

Take Shortest Route.
They are taking the shortest route
from Manchuria into the province
which Japan intends to annex to Man
chukuo. Another Japanese concentra-
tion on the border east of Kailu, Jehol,
was expected to start activities in that
northern sector soon.
The Chinese have been warned to
get out of Kailu, which Is the gateway
from that section to the capital, Jehol
City. The distance between those
points is about 300 miles.
The force heading west from here
includes veterans of the Shanhaikwan
battle. After the Japanese occupied
that city in early January, they left
small garrisons there and at Chiumen-
kow, closing those gates in the great
wall Of China, and proceeded north
ward along the Jehol border to this
region.
The closing of those gates in the
Nall prevented Chinese reinforcements
being sent into Jehol.
