Birth Control in Japan


In view Of Margaret Sanger's pro-
posed campaign in the land of the
Mikado, the Birth Control League" Of
Japan is Of unusual interest. The
league is under the direction Of Baron
and Baroness Tshimoto and its objects
are stated to be as follows:
I'VE realize that continued increa ses
in the population of Japan csn no
longer be supported by the country.
Consequently the number Of the popula
ton must be decreased, which is only
possible by birth control.
an this one Is reminded of Ii-Hunx.
Chang, who prohibited the canalization
Of the Hoangho, because it exercised a
sort OF birth control on the districts
through which it flowed. Li-Huns-
Chang himself declared that the floods
Of the stream washed away thousands
OF men who otherwise, in povertv and
hunger, would cke out 8 scanty exist
ence.
Japan has a very high birth rate,
and at the same time the highest child
mortality in the whole world. An aver
age japanese family has eight members:
father, mother and six children. Sixty
per cent Of the family income is spent
for maintenance Of very low standard
Of life.
"For several years Japan has been
overpopuated and therefore emigration
is promoted. Tho emigrants, however,
because OF the very low standard Of iv~
ing are not liked in the world, which has
led to international complications"
From this Baron Tshimoto deduces
that the introduction OF birth control
might remove these difficulties and that
the standard of living would be I'M
proved. Baroness Tshimoto contends
that birth control would bring about the
emancipation OF women, who then would
havee4nore time and money for educa-
ton This in turn would enable them to
get better positions, instead Of being
regarded only as gossips.
