NOVEMBER %, 1921, DELEGATES SHARPLY CONTRASTED! JAPANESE ~ BY JUNIUS WOOD. Japan's chicf delegates to the Wash- ington conference were cast by nature from different molds. Sharp contrasts in appearance and temperament cover the skill of statesmanship and kindli- Ineus of spirit inherent in each, Ad- ymiral Baron Tomosaburo Kato,' min- ister of navy through three changing cabinets and father of Jpan's modern fleet, gaunt of figure and deliberate in movement, sharp eves in a face fmpassive, but strong with authority, is & silent man of many thoughts and few words. Occasionally a flickering smile twitches corners of mouth and eyes, which seem to see everything. When he does speak, he covers the subject with concise thoroughness. “I regret that some persons fear the minister of the navy woulds<not destroy what he has created.” he said in discussing the rcduction of armaments. ble for Japan's eight-eight program, 1 economic life of Japan. 1 have com- mitted myself to o reduction of arma- ments and Japan Is the only nation that has done 8o through a responsi- ble minister. If we meet with the proper spirit many grave world prob- lems can be sctiled at the confer- ence. However. If no rational agree- | ment can be reachcd among the powers, Japan alone would not, and could not withdraw one inch.” Admiral Wore Muftl, Each day on the Kashima Maru the admiral, wearing a_plain room watching others play “go” on the bourd of 361 squarcs. He would slip in quietly, loan over the back of a booth, studying cach play, unmoving, silent, Stroking the spars or smoking a cigarette; a fleeting smile when the bluck and white stones covering the board spelled the end of the game. He would silently disappear for a turn on the chilly deck, into the social salon to write u daily postcard in simple words to one of his grandchildren, or into his cabin for work, an aide summoned by an_almost imperceptible glance. Once a bold spirit requested the admiral to descrt the “go” games and have his photograph taken, He as- scuted with the slightest of nods, stepped out on .t in the chair until _all the co had clicked, bowed asknowleds to the fiends’ thanks and faded quietly out of the picture. Naval Minister Qulet. The slight incident was typical of the man; unhurried, undemgnstrative, purposeful. In Tokio, the official home of the senior cabinet minister is quiet and unassuming. There or in the office of the naval minister it is the same. A bow s an eloquent good morning in_a philosophy that life re- much thought, but little talk. year the minister states the needs to each house of the diet. is one minister who his never been entangled in his own statements by the members' rapid fire of ques- tions.

The quiet man's; ° horizon is broad. Prince is Cheerful. As the Kashima Maru turned out of + Yokohama harbor a stout man, step- jping briskly, came quickly down the { corridor and Into the smoking room. {Kindliness radiated from the genlal /face and figure as he dropped easily {into a ohair and, leaning forward, }heaming through gold-rimmed glass- { g, said: “I think we will have a { pleasant voyage. Are you a good {sailor? Iam glad of that” This was + Prince Iyesato Tokugawa, and he was the same every day. It may be that i the prince feels a personal responsi- bility for the world's happiness. “Any- way he will do his part to make it a cheerful place for those within reach. “Miscief-makers, who stir dis- trust and jealousy among individuals and nations, are the cause of most of the trouble in the world” he says. “Acquaintance betwecn men brings mutual understanding and_friendli- ness. 1f the leading men of America }and Japan could exchange visits more often, there never need be no appre- | Rensions of trouble between the two }counlri:-s.“ l Has Autograph Album. The prince carries an autograph ‘album, a big volume In a padded {leather binding, which resembles & {private ledger. IHe says he would Iike to have the name of everybody in Americ:. registered. However, he is determined that every person who “Though I am responsi- | realize other necessitics foF the fu- | ture welfare of the world and the | business suit, passed hours in the Hmoknl“ ~d a leophole for attacks by press or is a tip for prospective visitors to bring their fountain pens. He took a part in everything— games in the smoking room, shuflle- board on deck, recitative singing of the taneless “No" elics, and the other diversions which kill time on a ship. Inaction frks him. In the mornings he was the first to be promenading the bleak deck with a cheerful greet- ing for each passenger who appeared —and on several days there were nol many. He always had a story to tell, questions to ask and an ever-ready pad and pencil illustrate some int in history or the intricacies of Japanese language, on which he Is an authority, Japanese names are meaningless to American ears, but to Japan they are a8 signiticant as Mr. Smith, Black, Waters or Johnson. “Toku” means virtu “Gawa,” river; hence “Toku- ga river of virtue. “lIye" is the house prefix of the head of the 1 of Tokugawas. * i ment; hence “ly achievement. The prefix “Iye” was adopted by lyeyasu in 1603, the first ot those Tokugawa shoguns who, as idefacto rulers of romantic feudal Japan, gave the empire uninterrupted peace, prosperity and seclusion until { Keiki, the fifteenth Tokugawa sho- gun, resigned his titles and domains in 1867. The following year the new emperor selected Iyesato, then five years old, as family head of the Toku- gawas. Since 1903 he has been presi- dent of the house of peers, visiting the United States in 1910. Prince Yoshihisa Tokugawa, a peer who also visited America on a Red Cross mis- sion a few years ago, is the real son of the late Shogun Kelki. Cherish Old Philosophy. Some of the philosophy of the grim warrior Iyeyasu, who leveled all rivals in that dim age .of bamboo armor,*two-sword Samurai and super- stition, s cherished by his descend- ants today. One thought translated is: “A man’s life is like going on a long journey with many burdens. Go slowly. 1If you look upon work as the common lot of man, you will never be discontented. 1f you fcel a desire for more, recall the days of Your poverty. Patlence is the founda- tion of peace and long life. anger as your enemy. “If you know only how to win and not how to lose, you will reap the bitter fruit of your own ignorance. Blame yourself, not others. 1t is better to do too little than too much.” If the prince lived in an American | village instead of in Tokio, where his rank enforces a certain degree of aloof- ness, his brisk progress down Main street euch morning would be the day's event. There would be a scrap of news or personal question for each fellow villager and pockets would miraculously produce candy and cakes for every child. ~ Reports, cables, cards disap- pear into those capacious pockets and they give up books, pictures and trink- cts like a juggler's silk hat. . However, wo items never change in their catalogue of contents—an old- fashioned gold watch which his mother gave him when he went to England in 1877 to study as a boy of fourteen years and a bronze paper cutter shaped like a cannon. On the handle of the latter in Chinese characters is the message which Admiral Togo hoisted on his flagship as the fleet went Into action—‘"Japan’s destiny depends upon your action at this moment.” " The prince belfeves in a good motto for any loyal citizen of any country—especially for a delegate to the Washington conference.
