the potential power of the Philippine

SUICIDES ARE INCREASING
AMONG JAPAN'S PEOPLE
Unconsummated Love, Debt and
Failure of Educated Men TO
Earn Living Are Blamed.

correspondence of the Associated Press
TOXIC. January 25.-Unconsummate
love, debt and the failure of men of
education to earn a sufficient living are
given by writer in the well known
causes of suicide in Japan, the increase
or which in recent years has caused
medical experts considerable anxiety,
The writer expressed the opinion that
the number of suicides is larger than
appears in the press and is struck by
the fact that the number of cases of
self-destruction seems to have in
creased with the development of west
ern civilization.
He says: Late spring and early sum-

Christianity and Mohammedanism many
Japanese regard it as sometimes a
means toward a higher end. The evil
In due to a more insistent spirit of pes
simism following the wave of mater

Russia and China. Lack of magma
ton and deep thinking which fail to
ind solace in material forces and knows
no other source of relief naturally
leaves the victim in fatal despair. The
writer IL pessimistic as to the future,
for he finds that for not many years
has Japanese society been in such a
state of stagnancy and gloom
Statistics show that the greater num-
her of suicides are among the young
and that the favored methods Of seek
ing death are by throwing themselves
3n front of railroad trains and by cast
ing themselves over waterfalls. So
many people jumped to death over the
Kegon waterfall precipice at Chuzenji
in late years that the authorities built
q high wall to deter would-be suicides.
The waterfall is one of the most beau
tiful in Japan. 1t carries off the over
flow from the lake which itself is
noted as the summer home of the for
eign diplomats accredited to Toxic.
