OSAKA, May 31.—If Japan expects to absorb the benefits of Western civ- ilization, “it will be necessary for her to welcome Christlanity with open arms and harmonize the religion of the West with the national character- istics of the Eastern empire,” in the opinion of the Osaka Mainichi. This newspaper's editorial on the subject, which attracted considerable attention, said it “is indeed a great mistake to think that Western culture grew up quite independent of its re ligion, just as it is absurd to think that Eastern culture is independent of its religious thought or feeling. “‘Strange to say, the majority of Japanese seem to think that we can very well absorb Western culture without paying any heed to its re- ligion—Christianity. - It is our hum- ble opinion that in order to fulfill e heaven-sent mission, if such it be, welding the Oriental and Occiden- tal civilizations into one, it is almost | incumbent upon us Japanese to wel- | come Christianity with open arms, so ag& to be able to make that religion (our own, just as we did Budghism and Confucianism in the past. “To welcome Christianity means not necessarily to make this country a so-called Christendom, but it means that the nation as a whole should become conversant in Christian doe- trines and sentiment in a similar de- gree as Western peoples who confess that religion. “Japan should have her own Chris- tianity perfectly harmonized with her national characteristics, and so well assimilated as to make it her own Ye- | liglon, side by side with her inherited spiritual cults, such as Buddhism, Con- | fucianism and Shintoism. STATE INSURANCE FAILS. Swedish Labor Venture Proves Too Expensive to Live. STOCKHOLM, May 31 (#).—Swe- den’s state organization for labor in- surance has failed. Parliament has decided that the venture is too ex- pensive, and the business will be liqui- dated. When compulsory insurance of em- ployes was introduced here 22 vears ago, a special dgpartment, acting as a government insurance company, was formed. Much pressure was ex- ercised upon employers in favor of the national insurance body. Private companies persisted in competition {and were able to undersell premiums to such an extent that the bulk of the business went to ‘the private com- panies. RARE CHALICES ARRIVE.

Mnunr fi l | closer together. ing out here and there in public speech as in flerce denurnciation of the Trade Union Council by the miner: leader, Cook, who accuses his col- leagues of base betrayal and repeats his allegiance to Moscow methods in the war against capitalism. What Cook says publicly is being said privately and with more violence by men of revolutionally views in the trade union movement who forced the hands “of the moderate leaders and then saw their action repudiated and defeated. All those leaders of the Labor Party who once held high office as cabinet ministers under Ramsay MacDonald are now busily denouncing the folly of the general strike and reaffirming their elief in constitu tional methods; their reputations ve been hadly shnken and the Labor ZARrty knows that it has lost much of hold on the public esteem which it"gained very widely during its first experience of actual government. Ramsay MacDonald Troubled. Ramsay MacDonald. once premier, with the confidence of King and coun- try, goes about like a tortured soul, his handsome, haggard face clouded with dark thought. I have met him in private life and know that he loathes any disloyalty to the Britigh Parliament and democratic liberty. But having proclaimed, against his belief and conscience, that the gener:i strike was not an attack upon parlia- mentary government, he is now fu ous because some of his follows ers de- clare that it was and should have been an attempt to overthrow the British constitution. He is desperate to wipe out these memories of the strike and to silence the extremists, but there is a growing storm in the Labor Party which is likely to break it in half. Philip Snowden, once chancellor of exchequer—that little. lame, pallid man who has one of the most acute brains in England—has more courage than MacDonald in de- nouncing labor’s left wing and igno ing its fury Lloyd George Loses. One great character is still active behind the scenes, and that is Lloyd George, whose small remnant of Lib- eral followers are uncertain of his future policy. Lloyd George's great- est enemy is Premier Baldwin, not because of any personal honflnv. but because Baldwin's humanity, iberal spirit and fair dealing have destroyed Lloyd George's chiet hope of return- ing to power. When the general strike was declared, Lloyd George saw a supreme chance of leadership. His nimble brain leapt to possibilities which seemed almost certain. He be- lieved that millions of men could- not be called from the factories and work- shops without rioting and lawless- ness and revolutionary acts: in that case Baldwin's humanity and love of peace would be thrust to one side by cabinet ministers more ruthless and not averse to bloodshed. ‘Winston Churchill, with his faith in force, his love of command and his military mind and tradition, would teach the reds a sanguinary lesson. Innocent blood would be shed as well 4s guilty, and middle-class England, deeply sentimental and enormously good natured, would cry out in horrer and dismay against this internecine strife. That would have been Lloyd George's chance. He would have formed an alliance between the Lib- erals and Moderate Labor and have led a great campalign for conciliation and peace with immense popular sup- port. Had Chance for Success. In a little Surrey village not far from where I live Lloyd George pre- pared every move in this new politi- cal rally I believe that if the ge eral strike had lasted some weeks longer, events would have worked out in that wa. It is likely that Llovd George's marvelous genius in appea ing to emotion might have swept the country and carried him back on a tidal wave of popular support as a man of peace and reconciliation. None of these things happened. Th absence of revolutionary outbrn.kl gave no excuse for ruthlessness. spirit of Baldwin prevailed over th. spirit of Winston Churchill. Lloyd George was not wanted by the nation in this crisis. He is still in exila, without power and with only.a few faithful followers. It is a tragedy of inaction for a man whose Whole soul and genius crave action and power as its daily food. It i ill probable, however, that Moderate Labor ‘and Independent Liberalism will draw Lloyd George is busy quarreling with his Liberal colleagues who dislike his criticism of the Con- servative government during the gen- eral strike, and who have fallen un- der the spell of Premier Baldwin. Mr. Baldwin himself is not happy fust now, according to my information. In spite of his immense reputation in the country owing to his leadership during the industrial strife, he is con- fronted with many difficulties and heavy cares. His life's ambition is to bridge the gulf between capital and labor and to secure the prosperity of England by an industrial pact of peace in which employers and employes may be collaborators instead of enemies He believes that trade unions still have a great part to play in English history and that the standard of life among the working people must be safeguarded and raised. Baldwin’s Plans Flouted. But those ambitions and beliefs have many enemies among his own follow One section of them, hard and narrow in their view of socisl life, are urging him to use the break- down of the general strike to smash trade unionism and to thrust all classes of workers back upon what they call hard economic facts; that is to say, to beat them down to low standards of wages with longer hours of work. His spirit of good will and co-operation has been rudely rejected by the mine owners, who prefer a straight conflict with their men on old-fashioned /and brutal lines. His influence and persuasion have been thrust to one side, and he is warned without courtesy against government interference. Many of his immedi- ate supporters accuse him privately of being too democratic, overgenerous | and weak in good nature. ‘This quiet, philosophical, unpolitical man, who by accident was called to be prime minister of England, sits smoking his pipe, aware that forces about him are working for conflict rather than peace on rather than progress. Meanwhile un‘mploy- ment grows apace while the mines are idle and deserted. llr Baldwin, who loves his country and its working people, sees its prosperity threatened by stupidity, intolerance - and lack of good will on all sides. For a man.of his temperament it is an intolerable situation not without tragic elements. (Copyright. 1926.) bty s
