The writer continuing says that it is doubtful if the Japanese will ever again be allowed to occupy their trading station. According to an order of the Governor, published in January, it does not seem probablo. This order is as follows: -**Trading stations on the coral islands can only be established after a written permit from the vics-governor. And at such trading stations can only be carried on within the limits of the island. If there by more than ons station in a group, the trading boundary of each station ll be defined by the vice-governor. Trading from place to place, especially through mediam of beats, is prohibited on the lower isles."
The writer in the Lloyd hero naively remark, that there is no doubt that this order was published with a view to favour the German Jaluit Company, and thereby enable it gradually to gain control of all the copra trade.
