Fish Flags Flown By U. S.
ENJOY to Japan Make Hit;
Recognizes Old Custom
BY Clarence DuBose

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
TOKYO (By mail to United Press.
When Ambassador Warren flew
three fish flags above the American
embassy here not long ago friendly
feeling for the United States took an
other upward swing.
The Japanese liked it. The papers
and the people talked about it.. They
regarded it as a subtle and gracious
gesture-small enough of itself but
significant of a sympathetic spirit
and that appeals more to the Japanese
than anything else.
For several reasons Ambassador
Warren has become, among the Japan
csc, one of the most liked and trusted
foreign diplomats. When Japanese
newspaper men want to see him they
can do so without delay or red tape
and get quick, straight, frank infor-
native replies to their questions.
Consequently, the picture of Warren
and of American viewpoints reflected
in the newspapers here to the Japan
csc people have been favorable.
No less important is the reputation
the American ambassador has estab-
lished among the highest japanese of
ficials and diplomats as a frank,
cards-on-thetable gentleman to quote
the description given the United Press
by a member of the foreign office.
HE is always gracious, pleasant
diplomacy itself-but at the same
time the essence of frankness and
candor," said the official
But about the fish flags. Annually
in Japan on the day of the Boys Fes-
tivaP'-a most important day in the
! calendar of celebrations here-great
cloth fish float above every Japan
csc home that boasts a boy-one for
each boy in the family. The cloth de
vices are painted very realistically to
resemble carp. They are hollow. They
are attached by strings through the
gills, to high bamboo poles, and as
| they fill with wind and wave against
| the breeze they seem astonishingly
real--like great fish moored by some
/ magic. Above many houses there are
| strings of half a dozen or more OF
there proud symbols during the Boys
| Festival.
| Through centuries of tradition the
| day, and the formula of its observance
have attained intense sentimental sig
nificance to the Japanese.
| Ambassador and Mrs. Warren have
! three boys. On the festival day three
huge cloth carp undulated above the
American embassy. where floated the
! Stars and Stripes.
1T was a happy thought, as well as
neighborly recognition of nationa
custom" said the Osaka Mainichi
which featured the affair.
