RUBBER GOODS TRADE IN JAPAN. 

 Mr. SHiztro KoNDo, of the | ipan-American Trade Bureau 

 (Tokio and New York), informs The India Rubber World 

 that up to nine or ten years ago such rubber goods as were im- 

 ported into Japan were almost wholly of British origin. A lit- 

 tle later the market began to appeal to German interest, result- 

 ing in considerable imports of German rubber goods. After 

 the war between China and Japan, American goods began to 

 attract more attention, and for awhile the first rank in the 

 rubber goods import trade was held by the United States, with 

 Germany second, and Great Britain third. Latterly the volume 

 of American goods received has declined, which Mr. Kondo at- 

 tributes to the American manufacturers having become too busy 

 with domestic orders to follow up the advantage which they had 

 once gained in the export trade. Mr. Kondo thinks that the 

 demand for rubber goods of all kinds will increase steadily in 

 Japan, and that with adequate attention to the trade the 

 United States could control a much larger share of it. From 

 official statistics quoted by Mr. Kondo it appears that the 

 Japanese imports of " sheet rubber " from the United States 

 amounted to 66704 pounds in 1899; 96,344 pounds in 1900; 

 and 80,777 in 1901. Rubber belting and hose are not separ- 

 ately reported, being included with leather belting and other 

 appliances for machinery. As for imports of other rubber 

 goods credited to the United States, the value amounted in
