These acts are a remnant of the past and cannot be tolerated in this advanced stage of modern civiligation I am anxious that we should show a magnanimous ttitude worthy of a great power dur- ing the stay of our distinguished guest and that nothing happen to mar his pleasure.” Tn Japan there exists a class sa of inal and which vet contributes noth- “soshi” and usually take a leading posed to be hired hy political groups s0shi’ literally means “use- iol.
