EPIGRAMs FOR EDITORS
By Walter Williams


 The Bible is the best textbook on journalism.
 The whole Bible is a model for jour nalists.
 Moses was the first great editor.
 Moses published more criminal news than any publisher today would dare to print.
 Journalism reaches it's highest de- velopment in democracy, and the Bi- ble made democracy possible.
 Jesus Christ was the first true dem ocrat.
 Journalism is the interpreters pro- fession.
 As the interpreter of life the jour nalist must needs hold the mirror up to the whole of it to make the pie 'ture true. In spite of many imper- fectiOns the picture reflected from the journalistic mirror is probably as those who buy it want it to be.
 There are no paid reading notices in the Bible.
 Luke was the first star reporter.
 Joseph was the first food admins trator.
 Paul was the first journalist to get himself in jail and write about it.
 The first great sporting editor was the fellow who wrote the story of the fight which made Goliath the proto- type of the kaiser.
 What shall it profit a nation to win a war and lose its soul?
 Heaven is place where people for get; hell a place where they remem- Der.
 The cure for the evils of democ- racy is publicity.
 The wages of sin is publicity.
 With faith we enter into good jour lalism.
 To lose faith is to lose power; the cynic is an intellectual journalist.

JAPAN'S PROBLEM

When we grasp the smallness of
 Japan and the size of it's population,
 we readily understand why the land is
 so crowded. Japan proper is a narrow
 and diminutive country. Its area of roughly 150,000 square miles is some what smaller than that of California, while it's population is 20 times as great. Moreover, like Italy, Japan is chiefly a country of mountains and its arable land under cultivation amounts to only some 25,000 square miles, a farm area less than one-half that of the single state of Iowa. It follows that Japan is the classic land of intensive agriculture. Its dwarf farms are not really farms at all in our sense of the word, but gardens. There are no pastures, no barnyards, but merely little squares of land, now covered with water, now filled with mud drying in the sun, and now vivid ly green with the beautiful rice plants. These little patches of terraced and ir- rigated land have nothing in common with our 100000 acre farms. In Ja- pan the average agricultural family (and there are 5,5O0,OOO of them) oc- cupy only two and three-quarters acres each. Only one family in 10 has as much as five acres (two cho) and over one-third of all rural families nave farms of less than one and one quarter acres. It is morcellement carried to a tragic absurdity.
