Proposed Revision of Japan's Treaties With Europe
London May 22. Proposals by the Japanese Government call for a revision of Japan's treaties with European powers. Tariffs would rise to 12 percent ad valorem from 6 percent. Consular courts in open ports would last five years and handle all cases within foreign concessions while Japanese courts decide matters outside concessions. Foreigners would be barred from freehold property, railway and mining shares, or joining the Java nese coasting trade. Britain and Germany have exchanged notes and oppose the change, urging reconsideration.

Secretary Foster Sees No Difficulty Meeting Pension Payments
Secretary Foster stated he expected no trouble meeting the June pension payments totaling 26 million dollars. He cited an available cash balance near 16 million, rising to over 26 million in early June due to revenue excess. He indicated no need to call in government deposits to meet obligations and noted a 24.5 million bank fund, not counting disbursing officers’ deposits. He discussed potential renewal of 50 million dollars in 4 percent bonds after September 1 at a reduced rate, but doubted feasibility below two percent, and cited recent gold shipments proving U S credit remains unshaken.
