A group of Japanese business lead ers, on a world good-will tour designed to smooth out points of economic fric tion and improve international trade relations, will arrive here tonight for a series of informal conferences on Japanese-American problems. Chokyuro Kadona, executive direc tor of the Japan Economic Federation and president of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Japan, is chairman of the mission, whose two day stay here will round out a month’s visit to this country. The mission is said to have been or ganized in the belief that many troublesome questions arising in in ternational trade can be solved more easily by practical discussions among business men of the nations concerned than by tedious formal diplomatic ne gotiations. Most of its activity in the United States has been devoted to conferences with American business leaders. nun, nuper 10 lteoeivc mem.

Patrick H. Joyce, president of the Chicago Great Western Railroad, told Senate investigators today that he tried to link his line with the Kansas City Southern in 1931 and set up a single general office for the two car riers in Kansas City. Joyce testified before the Senate Railway Finance Committee that his firm made a $300,000 down payment on a controlling block of Kansas City Southern stock. It failed to complete the purchase only because it couldn't pay an additional $3,000,000 during the depths of the depression, he said. "I still think we lost out on an awful good deal,” Joyce declared, explaining that he was willing to stake his "last nickel” on the deal in the hope of “saving the Great Western through the alliance. He described his plans for closing the New York office of the Kansas City Southern at an annual saving of $250,000 and centering all operations in Kansas City. “That's where they ought to be,” re marked Chairman Truman. “The operating headquarters of these rail roads never should be in New York.” Joyce praised President C. E. John son of the Kansas City Southern as “an exceptionally good executive,” and added: “I would rather have had him serve as head of the two lines than hold the job myself.” Maritime _(Continued Prom First Page.) American merchant marine will be obsolete in five years. In order to carry out our policy, this country must build ships immediately. "To illustrate the problem in an other way, except for oil tankers, there was not a single sea-going ves sel of the passenger, combination or general cargo carrying type under construction in an American ship yard in 1936 for either the domestic or the foreign trade, and for the fif teenth consecutive year not a single sea-going ship of the general cargo carrying type has been built in an American shipyard for foreign trade. During that same period, only a few cargo vessels were built for domestic sea-going trade. Adequate Marine. "There is no sense in talking about an adequate or a first-class merchant marine in the face of such facts. For us an adequate merchant marine has to be a new merchant marine. The question comes—what are we going to do about it? The answer is build ships!—the best and most modern ships—and build them right away.” The Maritime Commission is au thorized to contribute up to 50 per cent of the cost of constructing pri vate merchant ships. The exact amount of the contribution is depend ent on the difference in the cost of building the ships in this country and in foreign nations which com pete with the American merchant marine. In addition to the construction sub sidy, the Government may lend an additional 25 per cent of the cost at 314 per cent interest, the loam to be repaid in 30 yean.

AUSTIN, Keeper of the general store at Jujigo, Nev., and owner of the famed Jumbo Mine, ivhich mills gold at the rate of $500 a day, is now facing a suit for a one-third interest in the mine, filed last November in the dis trict court at Winnemucca, Nev., by Walter E.
