Staft Correspondent) Tokyo, (By Mail).—The “invisi: blé page” of Japancse newspapers i§ becoming a thing of the past. “The invisible page” used to be to Japanese journalism what the “man in black” still is to the Japancse stage. A . When a person wearing black clothes ‘comes,.upon the stage of a theater here his presence is unnoticed. Being in black means.that you are not there at all. Jt is very convenient. If it is necessary tb shift scenes or| bring on new gettings in the midst of an act, the stage hands simply put on black - cloaks and proceed about thedr business: The performance con- tinues . without -interruption, actors and audience alike undisturbed. By a‘similar'délusive process, which for a longtime was accepted by every hody withou€" question, newspapers had: the 'cunfltn? of printing an “in- visible page.” Theoreétically it didn’t exist. Actually’it was read with more zest than anything in the paper. All the scandal-stuff, all the stories that might stirt: trouble went on the “invisible pafie.” The .public was by custonr ‘bourid to concede that the page they read first and most eagerly Sthy ! ~ { Ha Emmincnt citizen figured-in an invisible pagestory as the star villain ina little gheisha affair, what could hé do about it? It was.a social error to sue for libel or give the editor the jin jitsu cquivalent of a horsewhip- ping for the simple reason that “there was no such page! It was invisible! It was like the man in black on the stage! < It was a grand little game and eyeryl_mdy played it fairly. A good “invisible page” editor could name his own sn]ary.and the sheets with the ‘snappinst “inyisible features” soared to tremendous circulations. Then &' political sharpshooter on one of the big papers spoiled every- newspaper. mention or discussion of some nubjectg This “writer printed a powerful’ piece about it on the “in- visible page.”” Some¥ow or other that “invisible page” immediately became as obvious as a Broadway electric billboard. ' The government insisted upon .seeing it, The editor protested thgf. it was invisible. The government said that being the case it wanted to be fair, 50°it would be content with slapping him in an invisible Jail.
