a male near-relative is called to the throne.
 The Japanese cabinet functions very much like President Hoover's cabinet, containing 12 ministers who are appointed by ths emperor and are responsible to him alone.
 The Japanese diet, or congress, consists of House of Peers and a House of Representatives. of equal power. The former are either elected for seven years or are appointed by the emperor for life; the latter must run for re- election every four years. They draw $1,500 a year, as compared to any American congressman's $10,000 a year.
 The peers are: hereditary mem- bers of the nobility, elected counts or barons, men of education or distinguished service appointed by the emperor, elected representa- tives of the taxpayers, members of the imperial academy elected by that body.
 The representatives are elected from various walks of life.
 Governors and sheriffs of pre- lectures are appointed by the gov ernment. Mayors are chosen by the emperor from one of three can didates elected by the municipal assembly. The elected chief magis- trates' of towns and villages must obtain the governors approval.
 The American system or trial by jury has been in effect only three years. Prior to that, the pre- siding judge heard the evidence and decided the accused's fate, even in capital crimes which in Ja- pan are treason and murder. Many years ago hanging was substituted for beheading.
 The diet, in session, looks very much like America's congress. Lit tie time is wasted on debate, as the Japanese language does not lend itself to brilliant oratory. There, as here, practically all Legislation is decided in committee long in advance. The Japanese solons, how ever, are honest enough to admit this, instead of wasting time on a lot of oratory for political effect.
 The post-Perry cataclysm in which the empires old order per ished before the march of progress and from which a modern Japan arose with constitutional govern- ment, elected representatives and the public voting booth, altered the emperors power but did not little to weaken his prestige.
 The governmental set-up is diff ferent now, but the man who sits on the gilded throne at Tokio to- day is still more than a mere hu- man being in the estimation of loyal Japanese. He is. in their ewes, a god-nothing less.
 Many, many men have died for

former foreign minister, and Hi- koichi Motoyama.
 The newspaper Asahi editorially advised caution. It insisted that Japan had a right to send land forces to Shanghai and that Japan does not intend to keep her forces in Shanghai ad that Japan does not intend to keep her forces in Shang- hai indefinitely, but would evacu- ate the moment the Chinese demonstrated their ability to safe guard foreign lives and property.
 The Jiji said Japan must pre- serve her freedom of action. This newspaper said the Chinese showed no hesitation in ignoring their pledges, and denied Japan had po- litical ambitions in Shanghai.
 Editorially, the Nichi Nichi ad- vised dignified caution.
 The Asahi said the government had advised Naotake Sago its dele gate to the League of Nations, to notify the league that Japan would withdraw If that body persisted in enforcement of Article XIV of its covenant, which provides for an economic boycott against an ag- gressor nation. The newspaper said, however, there would be no objection to any number of com missions of inquiry In Shanghai.
 The government permitted publi- cation of It's intention to dispatch units of the army to Shanghai to relieve Japanes marines defending their nationals there in the present crisis. However, it was insisted that no division yet had been sent. although the cabinet formally ap. proved sending army forces to the war zone. The marines will be withdrawn. 1t was stated, when the army endorsements arrive.
 Publication of the decision to send troops was withheld, it was explained, for fear the news might incite the Chinese to attmept to massacre the Japanese in Shang- hai. The spokesman said the num- berof soldiers to be sent had not been definitely decided.
 Rear-Admiral Uyematsu was ap- pointed commander of the Japanes marines in Shanghai, succeeding Captain Samejima, who becomes chief of staff.

Spirit" will be the subject of the Lesson-Sermon.
 The Golden Text is taken from I Corinthians 2:12: We have re- ceived, not the spirit of the world. but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God"
 The Bible readings include the following passages from l Corin- thians 12:4-9; Now there are di- versailles of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another faith by the same Spirit: to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit"
 The following is taken from the correlative readings from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scrip tures," by Mary Baker Eddy, page 512:8: Spirit is symbolized by strength, presence, and power, and also by holy thoughts, winged with Love. These angels of His presence, which have the holiest charge. abound in the spiritual atmosphere of Mind, and consequently repro- duce their own characteristics. Their individual forms we know not, but we do know that their na- lures are allied to Gods nature; and spiritual blessings. thus typi- fled, are the externalized, yet sub- jective, states of faith and spiritual understandings"

Smash Chinese New

ness said they did not expect ser ious fighting again until Monday.
 Chinese troops in the blackened ruins of Chapel attempted to ob- serve the Lunar new year celebrat- cd in China for centuries. They made the best of wartime make shifts.
 There was a noticeable absence of the usual frecrackers The Chin ese apparently feared thes might be mistaken for resumption of the battle before time was called.
 The Japanese, with typical Or iental willingness 10 exchange amenities. appeared ready to take advantage of the breathing spell it will give time for Admiral No- mura, the new naval commanding day. Their 18th division of the Japanese Imperial army also was reported en route, and due not lat CT than Monday, reinforcing the War-weary Japanese marines.
 Japanese officers admitted their willingness to permit the Chinese new year truce. They said they pre- ferred to wait the army reinforce
 
 rifice men without materially weakening the Chinese positions.
 The truce cast strange silence over Shanghai. Aside from the oc- casional crack of q sniper's rifle and most of these had quit for the week end also-the sound of War fare was ended. The foreign de- fense forces within the internation-  sion maintained their precaution- ary patrols unrelaxed, however.
 The 31st infantry, United States Army, landed at q. m. from the transport Chaumont, prior to brief exchange of artillery fire dur ing the morning. The settlement streets were free of traffic as the American soldiers landed at the customs jetty and marched jaunt- fly along the Bund and up Ranking road, bands playing lively martial airs.
 On account of the Chinese new year, the settlement and French concession were immersed in holi- day quiet. Women resumed their week -end bridge parties. The clubs were filled with men joking about the truce.
 Financial settlements usually due at the new year were postponed. however until February l9. Even then many will be unable to pay or collect.
 Thousands of Chinese thronged foreign settlements. They had lost all their possessions as a result of the bonn bardment and fires in Chapel.
 The day dawned cold and cloudy after quiet night. Occasionally a hardy soul fired a cracker only to learn he had displayed poor judg ment. The community. gun-shy, as to permit noisy celebra- tions.
 The brief engagement during the Saturday morning began at 10 a. m., after a night of comparative quiet in Chapel.
 At 10:15 q. m. three Japanese bombing planes began dropping their deadly missiles. The bombers were escorted by two speedy pur- suit planes The bombardment last ed three hours until it suddenly ceased at 1 p. m.

1 headquarters placed their casual ties in the Shanghai campaign 50 far at 43 dead, 126 seriously wound ed and 128 slightly hurt. Accurate figures on the Chinese casualties were unavailable, but it was estimated they had suffered at least 1000 dead and many more wounded.
 The Japanese said they had evac- uated 4,000 of their nationals from Shanghai, normally one-sixth their population here. A like number was expected to depart on five boats within a week.
 The situation in the Hongkew dis trict populated chiefly by Japanese was reported improving. Settlement police continued to encounter some difficulties in restoring order be- cause of attempts by rowing Chin ese to loot.
 An official Chinese communique outlining the aerial combat over Chapel yesterday reiterated that one Japanese bomber was brought down, with three Japanese pilots killed. Wang Yu-Chuang, assistant commander of the 9th Chinese air squadron, was killed when his plane went into a nose dive, the communique said.
 Pilot Gnu Dah-Hsi was credited with downing the Japanese bomb CT. The Japanese dropped 30 bombs in Chapel and Chenju, six miles out from town, during the early partof to-day's lombard ment.
 Colonel Shen Teh- -Hsieh, com manding the Chinese air forces at Hunjao airdrome, outside Shang- hai, in an official statement said he had 40 airplanes in six sauadrons. ready 10 participate in defense of the city. The majority, he said, are based at secret landing fields to prevent their destruction by an air raid which it was feared would be comparatively easy if all the ships were put under one hangar.

 Other points emphasized were that the Japanese would guarantee not to attack the Chinese unless the Chinese obstruct them.
 It, furthermore, Is maintained that the Shanghai incident must be considered separate entirely from Manchuria. The endorsements now being dispatched will be with drawn as soon as their purpose has been accomplished.
 A tendency in certain quarters to dissuade the government from too strong policy was noticeable among the Japanese.
