At present, to be quite frank, we are counting the hours be- tween now and our departure. For we are quite eager to get back on board ship, headed for the United States. It is not because we are tired of Japan, for we are all delighted with this be tiful country and with the people. But it is now just 15 weeks since I left Washington, and 14 weeks since I sailed from San Francisco, and to tell the truth, I. for one, am more than & bit homesick. N ‘We have been feted and feasted. en- | tertained and shown beautiful places, | given a close view of industries and of | the people’s lives, We have covered | many thousands of | miles in travel by | rall, by motor and | by ship. We have gone through the southern part of | Japan twice, in- cluding a trip through that most lovely area, the In- land Sea. We have gone straight through Korea and stopped at Seoul to see the riches of antiquity in that ancient capital. We have traversed Southern Manchu- ria and witnessed | the development of Mr. Lyon, | a land that is certain to figure largely | in the world's economic equation in | the future and may at some early date the scene of combat between | nations. We have gone through North- | eastern China, the Land of Uncertainty | and Trouble, have talked with the head | of its government, and with the leaders of thought and action and have ob- | served the conditions making simul- ‘l:nwusly for .progress and retrogres- | slon. These tours, in Japan, Korea, Man- churia and China, have occupied about three months, and every day of that period has been filled with interest and information and enlightenment re- garding this part of the world. Yet | we are quite ready to start for home. | and impatient only of the comparative | slowness of the voyage, speedy though | it may be. | America Ts Held in High Regard. | Our visit was promoted by the | Carnegie Endowmer © for International | Peace, for the purpose of making the members of our party better acquainted {|| with conditions over here, with the purpose of lessening the possibility of | misunderstanding between the nations. Cetrainly, as far as we personally ar® | affected, there has been a complete ! success in that we have a better con- | cept of Japan and China and a clearer understanding of the circumstances in | which they are functioning as govern- | ments and social organizations. | We have found that *“America, our country is generally called over here. is held in high regard by both the Japanese and the Chinese. There has been a decided change of senti- | ment in Japan in this respect since the great disaster of 1923. Whereas | there was formerly a spirit of bitterness | toward our people because of the ex- | clusion of J:ipanese from the United | States, the instant generosity of our | people toward Japan in the hour of her | most grievous affliction has worked a | wonderful change in spirit. | I came over here prepared to hear i much discussion of the immigration question. To my surprise, it was never | mentioned. Was it merely a matter | of polite avoidance of a painful topic | in the presence of guests? Were we lbelng granted & special dispensation of courtesy to prevent asperity? As the | days went by and the topic remained | unmentioned I wondered, and my won- derment grew until one day. on my | first visit in Tokio, I had a conversa- | tion with an American who has lived | here for many years, in the prosecu- | tion of an important educational work. He made the matter plain to me, “You will not hear this subject dis- he said, “because Japan has adopted a policy of silence regarding it. Immigration is not mentioned pub- { licly or privately. Japan has not for- | gotten or forgiven the slight put upon | her rationals by the exclusion from | their United States. She will not do so. | But she understands the matter better | now than at first, and realizes that | political considerations in America prompted this discrimination. She hopes and belleves that if the subject is not discussed, Americans will them- \ selves in time, perhaps soon, remove the stigma of the exclusion act and admit | Japanese to the privilege of entrance, |on a quota basis. However, small the quota may be, its establishment will be regarded as an act of justice, as a with 70U passed her he ended "B, 0.” ““That's because we become in- sensitive to ever-present odors, he told me.

Japan Sees East-West Conflict. “Japan wants to be aligned with the Western civilization,” he continued. “She believes that the day will come when the East and the West will be in conflict, when Asia and the other parts of the world will be at odds. In that event Japan wants to be on the side of the civilization which was brought to her by America. And it is to that end that she wants to have this discrim- ination removed, this slight corrected, this classification with the undesirables of Asia amended.” ‘This statement puts the question in a somewhat different light from that in which it is usually viewed. Assuredly, conditions over on this side of the Pa- cific are sufficiently disturbed to give value to the potential partisanship of Japan. There is in progress at pres- ent a pan-Asiatic movement. the end of which cannot be foreseen. When Rabindranath Tagore, the Hindu poet— who on the same ship with us from San Francisco and who gave us a collective interview on the voyage-— was here he lectured on this topic and aroused a lively discussion. His im- mediate hearers were of radical ten- dencles, sympathizers in spirit with the pan-Asiatic idea. The press paid but little attention to the matter, how- ever, and Tagore passed on to other flelds without having effected ary deep impression here. It may have been only a coincidence that shortly efter among radical students in Tokio, re- | sulting in the expulsion of a numbe: from their institutions, which auenched the fire. Japan has nothing in common with the pan-Asiatic movement. She has thrived in every way in consequence of her contacts with the lessons from the Western nations. There is no possi- bility of political interference with her affairs by any Western power. When she has gone too far, or too fast, in her dealings with China, international in- fluences have been brought to bear in persuasion, to bring about withdrawals. Manchuria as Source of Trouble. Just now there is only one sphere of possible difficulty—Manchuria. Ja- pan holds & lease upon a small but tung Peninsula. O © 1929, The American Tobaceo Co. extent, this lease expiring in 1997. It also owns, under a contract or agree- ment with China which expires in two zones, respectively, in 2002 and 2007, a railway system comprising sofne 690 miles, together with a “zone” along the lines compassing in all about 100 square miles, It maintains an armed railway guard of about 8,000 men along the lines, with the privilege of increasing that guard to 15,000 in case of need. It is obvious to any visitor to that region that the area of Japanese con- trol in Manchuria is the best admin- istered, the most peaceful and the most progressive in the “three prov- inces” comprising Northeastern China. Nobody out here expects Japan ever to yield this possession. Non-partisan observers rather hope that Japan will extend its sphere for the sake of a lessening of the danger of conflict. Just at present, with the threat of war between China and Russia over the control and management of the Chinese Eastern Railway, this feeling gains in strength and in frank expression. But what of China? ~Who knows when China will “find herself”; become, in fact, & strong. unified country with de- cided ideas of nationality and with a keen desire to regain possession and full control of its richest agricultural area? It is folly to attempt to predict in these premises. The most assured fact is that the events of the past 35 years steadily have driven Japan out of re- lations with China and into relations with the Western powers. Today the Japanese resent classification with the Chinese. They regard their neighbors as incompetents in government, as backward in education, as retrograde in culture. They have little faith in the stability of the present so-called Na- tionalist government at Nanking. They, speaking as individuals and not as of- ficlals, consider the maintenance of extraterritoriality as essential to the economic stability of China and the se- curity of foreign interests there.

This, howevgr, is mere hearsay. It may have occurred in only & few cases. The whole body of pub- lic zentiment, so far as I have ob- served it, is friendly. To see the real Japan, unwesternized, one has but to go any night into the native shopping district. In some cities it is called “Theater street,” as here, where the “street” is a series of pas- sages covering several acres. There, until 10 or 11 o'clock, the people con- gregate to promenade. to purchase, to visit. They carry their bables with them on the backs of the mothers or in the arms of the fathers. Whole families trot along on' clicking geta, chattering and smiling, now and then stopping to buy or, more often, to watch somebody else buy. I went up to Theater street the other night with some American ladies, friends at home. Whenever we stopped to price goods or to purchase trinkets, crowds gathered. A hundred men, women and children would stand si- lently, gazing upon the Westerners. Not a rude gesture was made or, s0 far as we could know, a rude word was uttered. There was nothing disrespect- ful in the steady stare of these on- lookers. They were simply interested. And if one of us looked around and smiled in appreciation of the situation, dozens of smiles came flashing back in recognition of a mutual sense of ‘humor. This is the Japan we are loath to leave, the Japan of the small streets— smiling Japan. TOWS RUM CRAFT TO PORT Coast Guard Cutter Captures Cargo Valued at $20,000. BAVANNAH, Ga., August 26 (#).— The Betty R., a broad-beamed 32-foot craft claiming British registry and with 990 cases of liquor aboard, was towed into Savannah yesterday by the Coast Guard cutter Kimball. The rum cargo was valued at $20,000. The crew of three, two Americans and a negro of the | Bahamas, were arrested. The Betty R., | from Nassau, was captured 50 miles off Mosquito Inlet, Fla. The crew said she had been drifting for a week as a result of an engine breakdown. | Sidar Named for Good-Will Flight.

We removed the ‘prejudice against cigarettes when we removed harmful cor- from the tobaccos. rosive acrids (pungent irritants) EARS ago, when cigarettes were made without the aid of modern science, there originated that ancient ‘prejudice against all cigarettes. That criticism is no longer justified. LUCKY STRIKE, the finest ciga- rette you ever smoked, made of the choicest tobacco, properly aged and skillfully blended —‘“It’s Toasted.” Toasting, the most modern step in cigarette manufacture, removes from LUCKY STRIKE harmful irritants which are present in cigarettes manu- factured in the old-fashioned way. Everyone knows that heat purifies, and so “TOASTING”—LUCKY STRIKE'S extra secret process—removes harmful corrosive acrids (pungent irritants) from LUCKIES which in the old-fashioned manufacture of cigarettes cause throat irritation and coughing. Thus “TOASTING” has destroyed that ancient prejudice against cigarette smoking by men and by women. “It's toasted” TUNE IN—The Lucky Strike Dance Orchestra, every Saturday Night, over a coast-to-coast network of the N. B.C. “It's toasted”—the phrase that describes the extra “toasting” process applied in the manufacture of Lucky Strike Cigarettes. The finest tobaccos—the Cream of the Crop—are scientifically subjected to penetrating heat at minimum, 260° —maximum, 300°, Fahrenheit. The exact, expert regulation of such high teme peratures removes impurities. More than a slogan, “It’s Toasted” is recognized by millions as the most modern step in cigarette manufacture. - - e g i SRR AL St TS DA
