this purpose. There are, of course, the ustal perial clauses for infractions of the law and it is contemplated that the law shall come into force as from July 1st,

1922.

Very likely the provisions of the draft law will undergo some changes in its passage through the Diet, but it is inter- esting to have at the present stage this exposition of the ideas of the Government of Japan on the subject. As the leading industrial nation of Asia Japan will doubtless be regarded as a model or guide in respect of its factory legislation for the rest of Asia, and the enforcement of the law, when it comes inte operation, will be a closely watched as will be its progress through the Diet.

TO THE FAR EAST.

LONDON, February 24th. The Times Washington correspondent says that special significance is attached to the appointment of Mr. H. P. Fletcher as Under-Secretary of Stato. He has a long diplomatic experience and a first- hand knowledge of the Far East, where Mr. Harding believes America must play a part of steadily increasing importance." The choice of Mr. Fletcher means that the carrying out of a vigorous policy will be entrusted to a man with the necessary special training.
