LYON. H Member of American Journalists' Party Touring Orient as Guest of Carnegi ‘TOKIO, May 21, 1929. ‘This is our last day in Tokio.

As & matter of fact, our packing has begun already, with the stowage of our various reapings in this abundant har- vest of Japanesse courtesies and atten- tions. From the very hour of our the various news- papers, gnde re‘; ports, document about education, about forestry, about a score or more of industries, about international relations, all flowed in upon us until our rooms here at the Hotel Imperial looked like old book stores. Then there were the souvenirs of our social evum. special menus, cards, photographs, theater programs, Both English and lemeu, descrip- tive matter concerning the amusements offered for our delectation.. Mr. Lyon terial. What to do with it has been a grave question. Sort it out as we t, ed & great deal that ‘we have felt - to keep and to take back with us to the States. The other day several of the members of the party went shopping for additional lug- gage in which to pack this miscellany and store it at the hotel pending our return in late July. But this morning the manager of the hotel, Mr. Inamura, ‘who has ‘beent one of our best friends and. advisers and most genial of -com- panions on several of our expedmona, that we turn this accumula- tion over to our several room boys and WE PAY The Habit literally we have been swamped | finall; this tide of print and other ma- | were le Endowment for International Peace. let them find boxes for it and paek it up for us, mbemmdin'.hemmt. ‘That met with hearty Awmvnl 50 the boys are for boxes and the ltufl is being packed and every- mind is easy—save for that mwhed problem of how to stow enough clof into our hand luggage for from 10 days’ to two weeks’ mvel. which will certainly include several “social” affairs requiring dinner coats. Our last-day program gave us morning free and it was mostly spent in shopping, duty-calling, money-get- ting and, as I have indicated, prelimi- nary packing. At noon, however, we entrained for Omiya, which lies about an hour’s travel north of Tokio, where we were to inspect a silk mill and a railroad repair shop, two rather con- trasting lines of work. As on the tflp to Nikko, we had a spetial car, which gave us perfect comfort. The Japan railway carriages, by the way, are ex- cellent in design and finish. The first- class coaches are built on a somewhat peculiar phn the seats facing one another in pairs and those of one side of the narrow aisle being long enough for three persons, while single-person seats are on the other side. This ar- rangement permits a person to stretch out on one of the longer seats and take a nap when so disposed, if there is room. When we alighted at Omiya we were met by the mayor of the city, frock- coated and formal and ceremonious. He escorted us to the motor cars and we were soon spinning through the strests toward the “Filature” or silk mill of the Katakura Co. one of the largest and oldest concerns of its kind in Japan, with upward of 50 different establishments such as that at Omiya. Something struck us as different in the appearance of the streets, unt ly it was noticed that all the decorat the flag of Omiya and that the displa; was in our honor. Then it was observed that each of the motor cars had the Japanese and American flags crossed over the radiator. This being the first time I had ever had a wwn decorated for me, I su flags as a souvenir.

It is a large establish- ment, employing 2,200 workmen and 600 officials. Covering several acres—they do not reckon large areas of land in acres in Japan, but in tsubas, or squares of six feet—it comprises shops of every description requisite to the recondition- ing of locomotives, electric engines, freight and passenger cars and all the accessories of railroad use.

It is exce tlonally clean and orderly. And the workers, too, are in the same condition. Every possible precaution is taken to insure good health among them.
