Katherine, The title of the article is "Japan Ready to Tackle Bad Banks, But Some Say Laws Are Too Vague", I don't think the laws are vague. Based on everything that I have read since Obuchi, they are not going to let the banks fail. Sounds like good old boys are good old boys after all. Ramsey

Katherine, From Front Section, click on ASIA [in left hand column]. URL is: interactive.wsj.com That gets you to the story: Japan Ready to Tackle Bad Banks, But Some Say Laws Are Too Vauge [sic] By JATHON SAPSFORD Staff Reporter of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL TOKYO -- Japanese legislators will convene an emergency session of Parliament Wednesday, and after voting in a new prime minister, they will immediately begin deliberating draft laws to clean up this country's banking mess. Question: Did the Journal misspell VAGUE as VAUGE in the print edition too??? I would have expected better of the WSJ. The abstract didn't contain the headline. Rather, it read, "Japanese legislators will begin debating draft laws to eliminate the nation's banking-sector difficulties. The problem is that the proposed laws could allow bad banks to stay in business.
