THE JAPAN SALT MONOKOLY,

„A YEAR'S RESULTS.

The first period of the Government Salt "Monopoly comprised the ten months endet! March 31st, 1956, During that period it was estimated by the Government that it would be able to obtain the net revenue of sight million yen from the monopoly. Owing to adverse circumstances, however, the estimated" profit fell short by Y831,000 The extraordinarily plentiful rainfall experienced last year up to August greatly interfered with the production of salt, which was consequently much smaller than usual. The following table show the putpat of salt jo, the country during the last eleven years:-
