The Man From Japan* came into The Office: “Nobody Hies over Tokio." said he, “because the Emperor lives there and it is permitted no human be ing to look down on the Emperor. When the American flyers came they had to circle the city. Our great sum mer resort is at a much higher alti tude than Tokio, yet in speech we ‘go down* from Tokio to the higher place, and ‘go up’ from the higher place to lower Tokio. because it is the seat of the Emperor. Japan is one of the saddest places on earth, once you know it. The pressure of population and the terrible poverty are most depress ing. Population pressure forces the people out of the Empire, or farther up the stony mountains. Easing the population pressure is something the world has got to deal with sooner or later. The Japanese government is now paying heads of families to get nut and go to Braz : l, to relieve the j burden on space and food. Living, at what Americans would call a working * class standard, i* prohibitive in cost. After living in Japan, all the manu factured fear which we have in this country is worse than foolish. The Japanese seem to be secretive with us. j but I have found that most of It aris es from their shame over their pov erty. They don't like other people i to see *iiow bare their country is in every way. They are proud, but poor, and their poverty has much to do with their dishonesty. Japan does not count for much in trade today be cause she does not know that honesty is something that can be put into ma terials. When Japan had a large lead pencil trade, her manufacturers con ceived the brilliant idea of putting an inch of lead in each end of the pencil, never dreaming apparently that it would hurt their business. It was the same way with silk. When she had a trade in that article, she began to make the center of the bolt bad, then a little more, and a little more, until half of it was bad. And now no silk will be purchased there* that does not bear the stamp of American inspec tion. That is the great trouble with : Japan—she imitates, and what she imitates is our worst faults. The principle of honor in goods has yet to be planted there. During the war Japan acquired an immense trade, but she lias lost it all since, due to under standard goods. Japan is not an ene { my to be suspected, but a hard-up na ] tion to be pitied. I like the Japanese J people, yet I would not advise that they icome to the United States in numbers. I think, however, they should come in on the basis of other people—this would make about 14fi a ' year.
