SMUGGLING MENACE

Shanghai, Aug. 21,

Chinese are interestedly, and with some concern, watching the peregrinations of the Japanese Ambas- sador, Mr. Shigeru Kawagoe, in North China, believing his visit will profoundly affect future Sino-Japanese relations.

Well-informed quarters expect Mr. Kawagoe, on his return to Nanking early in September, will renew the Japanese pressure for acceptance of "suggestions" for the reduction of Chinese import tariffs as the price for co-operation in stamping out smuggling which is now not only undermining the entire economic structure of China but is seriously affecting Nanking's revenue in the rich Yangtse Valley, to which smuggled goods are penetrating.
