JAPAN MAY BE
NEXT TO HAVE
PROHIBITION

Toxic, July 1.-THE prohibition
movement in the United States has
been followed in Japan by the launch
ing Of project to stop the manufac-
ture of sake, Japans national alco-
holic drink which is distilled from
rice.
me end of the war has brought no
check TO the steady increase in the
price of the necessities of life and the
soaring cost of rice. which is the
staple food of the Japanese people. is
becoming a grave problem for the gov
eminent. Last year the high price of
rice led TO serious riots throughout
the empire
me Japan temperance society has
presented a memorial to the govern
ment urging the prohibition of max
ing OF sake. The organization points
out that about 100000 bushels of
rice are consumed yearly in it's man
ufacture. With the population of ia
pan increasing at the rate of soc. 900
yearly and the national rice crop fall
ing on account OF the decrease of rice
lands through civic and industrial ex-
pansion, the organization asserts that
the enormous quantity of rice used
IN dlstillinS sake might be turned to
a better use in distributing ii as food
for the people.
Emperor Yoshihito is said to be
deeply concerned over the living con-
dltions among his people. Through
his lord chamberlain he recently or
dered the governors of the different
provinces to investigate the changes
in the thought of the masses, the cost
of food for the middle and labor classes
and the general Industrial situation
throughout the empire. The discon-
tent of the masses of the people is
seriously occupying the government
which is trying to devise means of re-
lieving the situation.
