was an outrage on a neighbor. Has

Pres. Japanese
College Has Been
Made Member
House of Peers
(By Associated Press.)

Toxic, June 17-Sanae Takata,
the president of Waseda University
which was founded by Count Okuma,
the prime minister, has been created
a member of the House of Peers by
Empror Yoshihito. This honor is in
recognition of his distinguished SER
vice to Japanese education. DR..
Takata became president of Waseda
in 1907 and since that time the in
stiution has grown in popularity
until today it has about 5000 stu
dents. President Eikichi Kamada of
Keio University was appointed to the
House of Peers some time ago. These
promotions are interpreted as indi-
eating the Emperor's recognition
and appreciation of the place that
education occupies in modern Japan.
So great indeed, have been the
strides made in popularizinG educa-
ton that Japan, like the United
States, is beginning to find difficulty
in placing the graduates of its uni
versities. Colleges, both government
tai and private, are crowded with
students who are unable to obtain
the lucrative positions they have
dreamed of. Not enough places ex
list in japanese commercial and pro-
fessional life to meet the demands Of
the steadily increasing number or
graduates. This years graduates of
the law college of the Imperial Uni
versity at Toxic number $50 and of
this number only $50 have their flu
ture positions secured
Statistics show that from 1878 to
1902 students were able to find
places in governmental service or in
business without difficulty. Since
1908, however, the situation has en-
tirely changed. Fifty per cent of
the graduates have had to wait for
one to three years to find employ
ment The large cities are already
overstocked with lawyers. Some
doctors of law are even serving as
policemen and others are experience
ing great hardships in earning a
living.
