SEN. MAGNUSON

Senator Will Visit Japan in April

United States Sen. Warren G. Magnuson of the State of Washington will represent Seattle and the forthcoming Washington Japanese Trade Fair when he visits Japan the first two weeks in April, according to Herbert S. Little, chairman of the fair.

The senator, as an emissary of the fair, will deliver invitations to attend it, to Gen. Douglas MacArthur, Maj. Gen. William F. Marquat, ex-Seattleite now chief of SCAP's Economic and Scientific Section, Japan's Premier Shigeru Yoshida and other Japanese leaders.

The trade fair will be held in Seattle at the University of Washington Pavilion, June 17 to July 3.

It is a false principle, that because we are entirely occupied with ourselves, we must equally occupy the thoughts of others.—The contrary inference is the fair one.—Hazlitt.
