TINE japanese of today possess a
Il driving force greater than that
of any other nation. Absolutely
homogeneous, perfectly unified,
bound by a sort of combination of
patriotism and religion that sends
them on to gain their goal without
the slightest thought about the cost,
they are unlike any other people,
and it is perfectly possible that their
nation yet may become empress of
all Asia.
This conclusion is drawn from
meet the japanese" by Henry AL
bert Phillips, an intelligent discus
sion of modern Japan, given espe-
cial interest by recent events in
Manchuria and Shanghai
Phillips tells us what he saw and
heard during a rather extensive tour
of Japan, and presents a pretty COM
plete picture of life in the island
kingdom.
Japan, he points out, still thor
oughly feudalized nation. has be-
come westernized at an amazing
rate.
1t is taking over all of the me-
chanical devices Of America and
Europe as fast as it possibly can,
but it is retaining the magnificent
unity and tradition of it's own cul-
ture-
In the end, Phillips suspects, this
westernizing process will go too far,
and Japan's onward movement will
be brought to painful halt.

rate job in helping Americans to an
understanding of Japan. 1t is pub

the crowd at the next table.

old house. set back from the high
way and flanked by rows of ancient
naples.
1t was such a house as one of
Chicago's meat barons might have
built in the nineties-au curlicues
and hybrid ornamentation,
. Outside 1t had sort Of remote,
Victorian dignity, but inside it was
hung with the cheap colors of
temple Of Jazz.
The colored girl in the coat room
accepted Susan's wrap with superb
disdain. Susan was terribly nerv-
GUS
There was -omething about the
atmosphere Of the place that dis
turbed her. Ray, however, seemed
perfectly at ease. She demanded
hairpins. spilled powder about, and
bullieo he check girl numerically.
Delighted with the effects she
lad produced, Ray ordered Susan
10 follow her and the two-tall
brunei and petite-blond - joined
their fscorts.
A end of the long room, an
orchestra thumped out monoto-
nous jungle dirge. 1t was strange,
sullen music After a brief con-
sultation of menus, Waring asked
Susan to dance.
The tempo Of the music had
auickened. There was more life in it
sow. The saxophone had ceased
complaining and seemed to be
oleating as merrily as saxophone
can. Susan gave herself up TO the
moment.
It was months since she had
danced and then with some awkward
boy. Warnings performance had an

moment or two, Susan realized who
he was. the junior member of the
real estate firm in whose Office Ray
worked.
He seemed a yapid, amiable young
man. He had red hair and, she
discovered, recently had been grad
uated from Harvard. Susan was not
very favorably impressed.
Indeed, Mr.. Webb (known to bic
intimates as skye did not seem to
have much to offer beyond a ready
laugh and a trick of twirling his
mustache.
