who is we'll known in the United States
through his lectures in that country,
warns Japanese bureaucratic states
men that there is q new movement Of
democracy among the Japanese peo-
pie and that a high-handed policy will
precipitate an out-burst of dangerous
thoughts. In an article in a Japanese
publication which has attracted con
siderable attention he says the bureau
cratic statesmen are treading h
path of ruin which was followed by
the Tokugawa Shoguhate statesmen
before the revolution of 1868. The
bureaucratic, he asserts, regard social
ism as a dangerous thought, but they
do not realize that there is a beneficial
monarchical socialism when 1.-The king
is the faithful servant of the people,"
In this sense. DR.. Nitobe thinks Japan
is the foremost champion of socialism
in the world.
bureaucratic statesmen" he
writes, ~"denounce socialism as dang
erous thoughts introduced from
Europe nj America, but most Euro
peans n Americans visiting this
country are surprised at the prevail
ence Of socialism here to an extent
such as can be seen nowhere else"
DR.. Nitobe declares hat Japanese
bureaucrats are repeating in their at
titude towards democracy the same
mistake they have committed towards
the beneficial form of socialism. There
is a sane democracy, he rgues just
as there is a dangerous democracy, but
the bureaucrats, he contends, do not
~differentiate between the two. He
criticizes them for shuddering at the
mere idea of democracy as If it i'm
perilled the government and the i'm
perial family.
Everything appeared calm now, he
continued, but it was well to notice
that democratic sentiments are rapid
ly disseminating throughout the var
ious strata of society,
DR.. Nitobe concluded: Bureau
cratic statesmen in Japan are too blind
to, and toe ignorant of, the new
thoughts which are sure to spring
from among the people VINO have
awakened either with the advanced
times or through their impulses of life.
In consequence. they are calling forth
still more dangerous thoughts. They
think Of nothing but repression and
exptirpation in dealing with the new
thoughts. They may be dreaming of
sitting on their usual safety-valve for
ever but they will be able to hold the
political safety-valve only so long as
tibet populace whose innermost hearts
are seething with new sentiments, re-
mains silent" "
