were formed, succeeding the Self-Insurance Department and the 
Banking Department respectively. 
Owing to the enormous expansion in the engineering enterprises 
of the Mitsubishi Shipbuilding & Engineering Company, Ltd. it was 
decided to separate certain important branches, and accordingly, in 
1920, the Mitsubishi Internal Combustion Engine Company, Ltd. 
with a capital of Yen 5,000,000 was formed, and the following year 
saw the incorporation of the Mitsubishi Electrical Engineering Com- 
pany, Ltd. with a capital of Yen 15,000,000. 
Tt will thus be seen that the position of the Mitsubishi Groshi 
Kaisha, holding all the interest of the aforesaid nine companies, is a 
most conspicuous one in commercial, financial and industrial circles 
in Japan, itself registering a capital of Yen 120,000,000 with a 
reserve fund of more than Yen 10,000,000. Its business is now 
chiefly devoted to the superintendence of the auxiliary concerns, the 
investigation of new enterprises and the controlling of estates and 
buildings which it owns. 
The Office of the Company is situated at No. 13, Higashidori, 
Tchibanchi, Yaesucho, Itchome, Kojimachi-ku, Tokyo, facing ob- 
liquely the Tokyo Station. 
The interior organisation of the Office consists of the General 
Department, Personnel Department, Accounts Department, Economic 
Research Department, Intelligence Department and Estate Depart- 
ment under the supervision of the President. 
THE ESTATE DEPARTMENT 
The estates owned by the Mitsubishi Goshi Kaisha lie scattered
