times had animated disputes and who
sometimes went so far as to throw
books at the able. The able must
have been a person of great amiability
and self control. Once, when a particu

SALT LAKE VISITOR
Is Particularly Impressed With

Delinquency Problem.

. With the object Of studying courts
and court procedure in this country,
NJ. Sngenoya, one of the Judges Of the
administration court at Tokyo, Japan,
is making IL tour OF the United States.
He was in this city last night, at the
Hotel Utah.
NJ Sugenoya declares himself to be
especially Interested in the work Of the
Juvenile courts as they are now con.
Quoted here. He has made intent OBJ
servation Of these institutions in New
York and other cities on his way TO-
ward the west. So deeply has he been
Impressed with the usefulness and the
moral propaganda Of juvenile courts IN
this country that he has determined to
apply himself to an effort to have such
institutions established in his native
land.
''While III this mountain country.
said Judge Sugenoya, 81 am also seek
ing TO inform myself concerning tae
cultivation of fruits. Your grapes, ap.
pies. pears and peaches have world
wide repute. We are looking into the
feasibility of introducing the cultiva'
tion OF such fruits in Korea, which has
climate and other physical conditions
similar to this region. We have an idea
that such fruits and berries as You SO
abundantly produce In this western
country can be successfully grown IN
Korea, On that account i am search
ing for all the knowledge that 7 can
get in this respect. This information
shall compile and carry home with me
to be given over to the disposal Of our
agricultural and horticultural officials.
Judge Sugenoya expressed the opin
ion that the overthrow Of the old Man
chu dynasty in China, and the estab
lishment CT a republic in that country
would have the effect of bringing about
closer relations and greater friend
ship between China and Japan. Dan.
ger of war between u.s. he said, "ha
practically disappeared We are glad
to see the possibilities OF sanguine
trouble between the two nations pass
away, although we have felt ourselves
to be perfectly able to withstand any
such conflict should it have arisen. AS
for Japan itself, there is no indication
whatever Of any movement toward o
republican form Of government, OuI
parliament is liberal and our officials
broad minded. Our sovereign Is q
capable, sincere man, who holds the
welfare Of the nation always in tender
care. Our people are perfectly salts
fed with our present form OF govern
ment.'
NJ. sugenoya will leave here today
for Los Angeles. He will spend some
time on the Pacific coast in study OF
conditions there before leaving for
