Their mission in life is however, according to Japanese propagandist societies and well-in- tentioned Americans, to, promote goodwill between the two countries and thus they are continually being rounded up to attend get-togetheri on flower arrangement, the tea cere- mony and Japanese painting.
 Social life on the whole is pretty dull for the American born Japa- nese and the girls particularly fine 1t difficult, for no young native born Japanese man would think o1 inviting them out for dinner and the movies, and foreigners are taken ur with their own circle of friends. Il the Second Generation young mar can survive the first year in Japan he is very apt to marry an old-fash- toned Japanese girl-the kind whc treats him like Lord and Master.
 But that first year in Japan h hard. It takes time to learn to like the Japanese breakfast of bean soup, rice and pickles. It takes a strong constitution or else lots oi woolen underwear to live in a room which has no heating system except a little charcoal brazier.

 Written for NEA Service

The Ginza, Tokyo's Fifth Avenue, Is crowded during lunch hour. Busi- nessnen, contentedly chewing t0oth- picks, spraddle four abreast across the narrow pavement, and shop girls, alike as peas in the sunshine. There are also well-turned-out ma irons accompanied by smooth checked daughters, intent oh the business of shopping, and students who have deserted classrooms for the more spirited atmosphree Of Ginza cafes.
 There is another group, too well set-up young men and women whose foreign clothes it more smartly than usual, who give the impression of rushing instead of walking and who speak English without a trace of accent. They are the young Second Generation" Japanese, who, born in America, have gone back to Japan by the boatload, intent on learning some thing of the ways of their ancestors.
 The influx of these youngsters has been so great recently that new or- ganizations have had to be estab- lished for their benefit. Waseda, one of the biggest universities in Tokyo, has added courses where the Second Generation may not only learn about history, manners and morals, but the Japanese language as well, for very few of them can speak ths tongue of their parents. Those who come over as students find homes with Japanese families or move into one of the newly built student centers, drab buildings but spotlessly clean.
 Opportunities Lure Them Home"
 With rare exceptions, most of the Second Generation come from Pa cific cast homes where the tradi- tions of the past struggle valiantly for @ foothold in the lives Of aver age young Orientals to whom Japan Is merely the land of cherry blos- son1s.
 The struggle has been partly suc- cessful, but the recent invasion Of the "Old Countree" is due not only to curiosity and a desire to learn its ways but because economically It offers more opportunities.
 Eight years ago in Japan, a for- eign firm employed foreign stenog- raphers at rare salaries to get out

Market Drops Lower |M Last Week $ Trade
Stocks, BOnds Commodities Declined -Industria
 Issues Led Shares to Lower Record
BY ELMER c. WALzER United Press Financial EditOr)

New York, Aug. 2l = (UP) = Stocks, bonds and commodities de- clined this week while business held its own.
 Industrial issues led stocks lower, but some support for pivotal shares developed.
 Japanese issues were heavy losers on the bond market, the entire group touching new lows for the year. Selling was based on fears Japan may be forced to default on its loans because of a budget un- balanced by expenditures. United States government bonds had a sink ing spell and the general domestic list was lower.
 Grains led commodities lower. Heavy declines also were noted in other leading commodities. Cotton futures made 4-year lows.
 In the business world gains were noted in car loadings, electricity output, oil production, gasoline con- sumption and retail trade. Moderate declines took place in automobile output, construction and lumber output. What recessions occurred wer ecuased mostly by vacations and usual summer shutdowns. The ten- dency is toward pickup in major lines.
 Highest priced stocks gave ground on moderat eofferings. U. S. Steel, Chrysler, Union Carbide, and Westinghouse Electric made widest declines. Case was of more than lS points.
 Metal stocks were weak. American Smelling was under pressure wfer foreign copper slumped a cent { pound. Oils were hard hit despit, outlook for substantial extra divi. dends. Chrysler led motors lower.
 Railroad shares had several veal periods on uncertainty over wag, negotiations, but steadied on talk O higher freight rates. Utilities wert depressed. Farm shares had wid, losses. Chemicals dropped. Good rich led rubbers lower.

in Japan, not only the girls but the men too refuse to go into kimonos.
 Some of them talk about the time when they will be taking a boat "home" again to America, but oth- CTS who have already married their old-fashioned Japanese sit in silence. For they have burned their bridges. A home in the United States now would mean one without their Japa- nese-born husbands or wives, the immigration law being what 1t is.
 So they go home in Tokyo to lit- tie stucco houses, very foreign out- side, very Japanese inside. They fix them up however with chairs and tables and hang curtains at the windows. One night there is strictly Japanese rice and raw fish and lotus roots for dinner, and the next night, strictly American cold roast pork and appleSauce. It isn't as difncult as it sounds for after all they know how to compromise. They've been doing it ever since they were born.

MAINE IS LEFT
 WITHOUT HELP

Washington, Aug. 21 - (UP) - Social security board officials pre- pared today to cross Maine from the list of all 48 states which assist needy aged with combined federal and state funds.
 Unless a new source of funds for Maine's share of the pension pro- gram is found by the state, ofticials said, Maine will be the only state not under the old age assistance program.
 The crisis arose with defeat at the polls this week of state sales tax proposal which would have pro- vided the states share of the cost of assistance for 3,700 needy aged.
 Ofncials here said it is possible that a federal grant will be made to cover assistance during the first half of August, but that continua- tion of he program depends on pro- vision from an unnamed source for the states share.
