Why He Did Not Attend
Buddhist Ceremony


Japanese newspapers yesterday aft
eInoon and this morning print strong
editorial criticism OF David Cary

hist on Sunday, he did not appear.
In reply to their criticism and con-
domination. Pastor Peters today made

10 Bishop Imamura, head of the mis-
sion. on Saturday afternoon, notify
ing him that he could not appear, and
Why. The letter shows strong stand
against any Endorsement of Budd-

"Narrow-minded," "un- Christian"
and "diseourteous" are some OF the
terms used IN the Japanese editorials,
/ the writer's Of which say that Mr..

messenger on Saturday.
The Japanese papers say that when
the Japanese Ministers Union heard
that Mr.. Peters was to be present at
the cornerstone ceremonies and
would speak, members of the union
Immediately opposed any such action,
saying that the Japanese Christians
could not countenanee anything which
appeared ike an Endorsement OF Budd-
liism. The Japanese papers say that
two Japanese pastors presented the
matter in this light to Mr.. Peters and
he decided to withdraw from the pro-
gram.
After learning today that the Japa-
nese papers had taken the incident up
and were insisting that he had not
notified Bishop Imamura, Mr.. Peters
made public the following letter, dated
last Saturday:
