The japanese Army

The Japanese Army
The Japanese army In China seems
to be very much like any other army
offhand. It's organization is about
the same, its arms are the same, and
it follows the same kind Of strategy
and tactics that European and Ameri-
can armies use.
But once in q while little news
dispatch will reveal the Japanese SOL
der as q creature Of a different spec
les; q hold-over, as it were. from a
warlike age which seems to survive
nowhere else on earth.
A few days ago dispatches from
Shanghai said that the japanese COM
mander there found himself without
sufficient troops to make his offens-
i've succeed. Any European or Amer
lean general in that position would
have cabled at once for more men,
and would have kept on cabling until
he got action.
But the japanese commander never
let out peep. Why? Because the old
code Of the Samurai forbade him to.
His emperor had given him this as
signment, and he would be unworthy
if, having begun it, he appealed for
help.
A day or so after that bit of news
came a cable to the New York Times
telling how Japanese infantrymen had
sacrificed themselves to destroy a
barbed-wire barrier that was holding
up their battalion.
They strapped about their chests
and waists huge quantities of high
explosives. and then ran forward bold
ly and entangled themselves in the
barbed wire. The Chinese instantly
shot them, the bullets touched off the
explosives, and the wire entangle-
ments were blown to bits-as, Of
course, were the three Japanese in
fantrymen.
These soldiers, by the way, had VOL
unteered for that job.
It is hard to imagine either of these
incidents happening in present-day
European or American army. We on
this side OF the Pacific simply don't
think that way any longer. The atti-
tude that makes such quixotic bits of
old-time chivalry possible stems from
the middle ages. we have gone be-
You'd it.
But Japan is still half medieval.
The old warrior caste there still looks
on life as it did ten centuries ago. The
present war, indeed, may prove its
last fight; but while it lasts a code
that the rest Of us lost long ago is still
operating.

A Chance for Abuse
Duluth HERALD

In 1923 George A. Sundberg Of
Minneapolis shot and killed a young
woman who had refused to marry
him. The crime was described by Dis
trict Judge Bardwell, who tried him,
as lone of the most brutal and de-
liberate murders in the history of this
court" Sundberg's lawyers pleaded
insanity and the man was acquitted
and sent to the state hospital for the
insane at st. Peter, where he has
been confined ever since.
Last week the state supreme court
ordered him released over the protest
of the trial court The supreme courts
decision was pursuant to a law passed
in 1881 which permits the release Of
criminally insane patients on the sole
responsibility of the superintendent
of the hospital, though he must Ger
tify that they have recovered and no
longer endanger society. Before the
1881 act so-called criminal patients
could not be discharged without per-
mission Of both the court and the su-
perintendent.
Judge Bardwell. in opposing the re-
lease Of Sundberg, held the law I'M
just and said that he believed the
trial court, possessing information
about the case and the defendant
should have discretionary power as to
when the defendant should be re-
leased" This, he thought, would tend
to prevent the release Of prisoners
who might later become q menace.
Without presuming to express an
opinion about the Sundberg case, 1t Il
quite certain that most laymen will
agree with Judge Bardwell that so
ciety needs protection, apd that nc
one official should be allowed full au-
thority to release insane persons who
have committed murder. It offers ar
opportunity for future abuse that the
interruptions will not hesitate Il
use. The curious may also wonder
how the legislature managed to put II
through last year without attracting
public attention.

DAYS passed. Difficult days for
Ellen. Days when her efforts
to meet insurance payments, milk
bills and butcher bills seemed
hardly worth the effort. Days
when she needed sleep and rest
and leisure and felt that the bur-
den Of the double Job. so vitality
necessary for the present. was too
much to bear.
She had not broken with Steven.
She could not. She saw him in
the store and occasionally outside
usually at luncheon. He did not
speak again of marriage but in a
thousand ways he unconsciously
revealed to her what was in his
heart.
There were times those hur-
ried, flurried days when she for
got her problems, delicious. thrill
ing times made of the stun Of
dreams. Those were the hours she
spent with Larry. In vain Molly
had protested, had wept. had be-
come angry. Ellen persisted in
her determination to see him when
she chose. One Monday evening
the quarrel between her and Molly
had come to an ugly climax.
Larry had arrived at the apart
ment. unannounced. and Molly
had asked him to leave. After
ward there had been Z spirited
scene between mother and daugh-
ter resulting in a victory of sorts
for Ellen. At any rate Molly had
stopped her visible campaign
against Larry. What was in. her
mind the girl did not know.
On Tuesday morning Ellen
went to the basement lockers at
Barclays to hang up her hat and
coat. Absorbed in her usual
morning WEAKNESS. she was slow
to notice the group Of saleswomen
clustered about the mirror head
Ing the row Of lockers. As she re-
moved her hat she heard her name
spoken. Ellen stared at the whis-
pering group and saw that Mrs.
Bondy was in the center.

Chinese Leader
Closes Up Cafes
In Capital City

PEIPING, March 3. W.R) -
Marshal Chang Hseuh-Liang, once
a patron of night clubs here, which
were a popular feature during the
past year, has ended their ex-
istence.
The mayor appointed by Marshal
Chang cancelled the licenses OF
SO cabarets. Thousands of stu
dents and junior officers are dis
appointed They had gone to these
places night after night, learning
the western style dances from
Chinese girls imported from
Shanghai and other cities.
Peiping's own "sing-song' girls
are in as sad a plight as the dance
girls. These girls were hard hit
when the capital was moved from
Peiping to Marking in 1928. Then
the western dance craze came
along. Most of the sing-song girls
learned the dance, and joined the
night clubs. They were prosper
Gus again. Chinese girls, as well
as Chinese men, wanted to learn
the new dances, and patronized
the cabarets.
The mayor of Peiping did not
approve of cabarets from the be-
ginning. He wanted TO abolish
them. Finally, Marshal Chang de-
cided the cabarets might encourage
disorder. The atmosphere of
Peiping was panicky. So the order
went out to close them.
