At the formal dedication of the

the $4,000 project was developed,
{, Mr.. Reider recalled that the first

road will serve as valuable ard
most useful asset to Vacationlond
and it is indeed a monument to
the progress of our community
The dedication was followed by
an elaborate fish dinner which
was prepared by Mrs. Lawrence
Schiewe at the SchieWe home To-
Gated near the head of the new
road. She had prepared 100

japanese Woman on
Speech Urging Trade
BY the Associoted Press

| pt me AsSoeiofeo Pre5S
MOSCOW, April 9.-Mrs. To-
miko Kora, a member of the
Japanese Senate, called today for
heavy japanese trade with China
and the Soviet Union.
Her speech to the Soviet-spon-
sored international economic con-
ference was strongly applauded by
more than 400 delegates, includ-
ing some Communist Chinese.
Mrs. Koras appearance aroused
great interest. She was the first
Japanese to speak publicly in
Moscow in several years.
She also suggested. Japan could
aid the under-developed areas of
Southeast Asia with her technical
and agricultural experience. She
said one way to do this would be
to permit Japanese to settle in
those areas so. they could impart
their skills to the local population.
Mrs. Kora emphasized that she
came to Moscow as a private per-
son. not as a japanese official.
The japanese government re-
fused passports to japanese citi-
zens who wanted to attend the
economic conference.
Mrs. Kora had been in Paris
as an observer at UNESCO meet
ings and the japanese foreign Of
flee said she entered Russia
through Finland. The foreign Of
flee said it did not know she had
been invited to the Moscow con-
ference.
Mrs. Kora, 81, was Mayor of
Hiroshima for a year after it was
hit by an atomic bomb in l945
Two years ago she visited the
United States to invite Ameri-
cans to attend the United World
Federalist Conference in Hiro-
shima.
