BUSINESS MORALITY IN JAPAN.
Professor G. T. Ladd, who has been lecturing for a third time through
Japan, writes to the "Century" on the business morals of Japan. He confesses that the Japanese commercial elassei have not the same high standard of business honour which characterises the same classes in the United States or Northern Europe, or even in the treaty ports of China. But the men of honour who formerly despised commerce are now entering the ranks of trade, and on the direction in which the nation is now moving, he says:—"Nevar before in the history of the country, and at the present time in the history of no other country, do we find the same intelligent, deliberate and widely prevalent purpose to do away with the nation's reproach and to rise in the scale of national business morality."
