istering with the SEC, Chairman
Douglas Immediately swung into
action. He dispatched an SEC
lawyer from San Francisco to the
islands within three hours after
naval intelligence informed him of
the Jap attempt TO raise money
for the China war on American
soil
And since there was no federal
. Judge on the islands, Douglas saw
to it that a friendly Jurist was
rushed by the next ship. The law
Yer asked for an injunction and the
judge granted 1t.
Japan then did an extraor-
binary thing-what Chairman
Douglas characteriLes A. "un-
precedented." Besides repudi-
ating the bond issue, Tokyo
financiers tore up every con-
tract of sale and refunded the
money TO the original pur-
chasers Of the bonds.
