4 PEOPLE TO WATCH


A Japanese invents a process OF
three dimensions photography. The
popular science columns notice II.
Otherwise il is ignored. The dan
gerous delusion that the japanese
are capable only OF imitation coh-
finues.
Consider a few other facts. Japa
nese warships. according TO
British authority. were equipped in
1915 with fire-conrol instruments
that were not introduced in the
American navy until 1917 or later
James Fighting Ships declared
that today Japan's S,500-ton cruis-
ers are "by far the most powe.
fully armed cruisers in the world
for their tonnage" Japan now
builds her own warships. as well
as her airplanes, with engines of
Japanese design.
Six years ago Or. Hideyo Nogu-
chi died in British West Africa. a
victim of yellow fever. after hav-
ing made outstanding contributions
TO the knowledge and treatm mt Of
syphilis. as well as OF the disease
10 which he succumbed. A few
months ago another Japanese.
Yasuo Kuniyoshi. won the most
coveted award made annually by
the Philadelphia Academy of Fine
Arts. Japanese mechanics went TO
England in 1880 TO show English
engineers how 10 manufacture
Toypda automatic looms. a Japa-
nese invention that has played an
important part In Japan's textile
development. Still more recently a
representative OF British liquor
houses i'm the Far East has reported
that japanese distillers are turning
out whisky that differs very lit
tie" from that manufactured in
Scotland, feat that inventive
Americans failed to achieve even
under the stimulus of bootleg
prices.
When IL came out of the slumber
of ages. Japan sought instruction
from the West but was not con-
tent with 1t. That was only point
10 start from. Americans were
largely responsible for the Japa-
nese educational system. Japan to-
day has less than | per cent of
illiteracy. We still have between 6
and z per cent While maintaining
its high birth rate. Japan has cut
it's death rate to close approxima-
tion 10 Western standards.
Admiral Togo. who died few
weeks ago at the age of 81 years,
was six years old wen Commodore
Perry first visited Japan. Graded
In medieval feudalism. Admiral
Togo lived TO see his country rise
TO a position in modern civilization
where Its delegation could stalk out
OF the League of Nations and slam
the door in the face OF patroniz-
ing West. with what-are-you-
going-to-do-about-it air. The history
of the human race has no parallel
to Japan's achievement of adding
an alien culture to its own in so
years-and improving upon IL.
When II Is remembered that
Japan's teeming millions have done
all this on group OF volcanic Is
lands. whose total area is less than
that OF the State OF California and
whose tillable area equals about
half OF that of the State Of Iowa,
whose soil has been intensively
cultivated for more than 1000 years
and whose tillers have had 10 face
Western contempt and repression
because God did not make them
white. new appreciation of Jap
anese potentialities seems to be in
order. A people like that will bear
watching for IL is destined to
make its way in the world.

on the stand they have taken In In
terest OF justice in the distribu-
ton Of public jobs.
II is claimed by members OF the
Board that Negroes who have ap-
piled for Jobs in the school sys-

We ask, II the Board OF Educa-

from his job. should not the vac
ancy be filled by another Negro
What about the Washington
School? The janitor who worked
there during recreation periods last
year was a colored man. This year
we find his place filled by white
janitor. Are there no other colored
janitors qualified?
The citizens OF North Detroit have
circulated petition TO $50 persons

Cecil Blakley, teacher in the
Washington School. should not be

TO deal justly In appointing Ne

had been placed before the Board.
there were two members who were
very outspoken concerning the
Committees request. These two
men, DR.. Mclean and Inspector
Frank A. German, am going TO
discuss separately.

Der there was plan to prevent
Negroes living West OF Brush

canine plan was no one other than
the Honorable DR.. Angus Mclean.

only in preserving his m, Hess.

dents TO definite area. He point
ed with the pride OF an aged bent
man. who has the care of the world
on his shoulders. to those five local
segregated Negro hospitals as an
example of Negroes solving their
economic problems.
Inspector German strenously
opposed DR.. McLean's proposal, but
he said. During my Investigation
OF the discrimination of Negroes be-
ing placed in the school system,
have found In every case that the
Negroes did not facet the require

that Miss Hazel Miller specialized
in foreign languages at the Univer-
sity of Michigan, was highly recon-
mended Ia the Board. but failed af-

to be placed in the Detroit Schools.

along domestic lines. He failed 10

surprised upon learning that DR..

community trying 10 hustle Negro
votes to prolong his reign on the
Board OF Education so that he may
thwart any educational progress on

Chas. IL. Mahoney received 6. 092

is believed that IL the republican
party had held its own during the
general election. Mr.. Mahoney
would have most certainly gone
TO congress from that district.
Conditions will be little di-
ferent this time. First there won't
be as many candidates in the field

important. Mahoney. who made. "a

EVENTS OF MARTHA
 SOCIETY SUCCESSFUL

The business meeting of the Martha Society of the Northern Light Presbyterian church, held in the parlors yesterday afternoon began at o'clock with a delicious dessert luncheon by the hostesses Mrs. Homer Nordling and Mrs. w, H. Douglas.
 The meeting was well attended and many activities were dis cussed. The annual dinner was re- ported as most satisfactory event and the general public was loyal and came in for a share in the duly expressed thanks as were the members of the various commit tees.
 Mrs. Ralph Martin gave a good report on the recent rummage sale and said it was a financial suc- cess. The articles left over from the large donations were given to Mrs. David Waggoner for the rum mage sale she is conducting next Thursday. w ef The Martha Society, through a committee, sent several boxes of articles to the Children's Home in Douglas, and they were greatly re- ceived by Mrs. Carmichael, acting 'matron of the home.
 The next event of the society is the annual bazaar, luncheon, tea and candy sale to be held on No- vember 16.

What is expected to prove an intersting service has been planned for 7.3o o'clock tomorrow evening at the Northern Light Presbyter- ian Church. when the first of this winters monthly '".Evenservice' gatherings will be held.
 The Mems Chorus, organized by Choir Director Ruth Sarah Coffin, will make it's first appearance sing ing the selection "Rise Glorious Conoueror,'' by Wilson, and it is confidently expected that this mems group will find much favor with the Juneau public Sunday and in the future. f
 Hearty congregational singing Of favorite hymns is also to have a large place in the service and the contribution to be made by the minister, the Rev. John A. Glasse, will be in the form of what he chooses to call "homely readings" presented decidedly informally.
 Immediately preceding the serv- ice at 7:2O o'clock Carol Beery Davis will provide Organ Mo ments," playing "Angelus" by Stearne, and "Eventide'' by Meale.
