IN THE
NEWS

TN THE wake of the POr-
tuguese traders came the
Christian missionaries to
Japan. ny
Chief among these was
Father Xavier, who was
afterwards canonized by the
church and became Saint
Francis Xavier.
He labOred first I'm Sat-
suma, where the modern
cheap and snowy Satsuma
ware comes from.
Later he travelled to KyOtO,
the capital, which he found
to be a desolate place, ruined
by fires and the fighting of
the contending clans.
He then turned to the cOun-
tryside and preached during
the day to the mobiles and
their followers.
At night he sept under the
stars.
The japanese ridicuIed his
humble manner and mean at
tire and spat upon him.

he determined to
follow the example Of
the merchants.


He represented himself as
an envoy of the viceroy OF
India, which in a sense he
was.
He took with him to the
court of the Ouchi clan a
clock and a harpsiehord, or
primitive piano.
A tall Negro attended him
and this Negro attracted
great attention.
The Japanese had never
seen so tall a man before nor
one with so dark a com
pleXiOn. One noble lord tried
to rub the black off the
Negroes face.
The Negro was presented,
along with other rarities, to
the noble lord and remained
with him faithfully until his
death.
Such astonishing presents
were received with great de-
light and Xavier was offered
great emolument in return.
But he asked only to be
allowed to preach, and was
given an old temple which he
conseCrated to Christ.

The Japanese radio said today
that 30 United Nations planes
raided Japanese-held Marcus island
tMinami TorD. about LOO miles
southeast of Japan and midway
between Toxic and the Marshall
Islands, which the American navy
raided several weeks ago.
Breakfasts recorded by United
Press admitted some damage, but
quoted the Donei tJapanese) news
as saying that some
Allied planes were shot down.
Eight persons were said TO have
been killed aid one building
burned.
80 PLANES SIGHTED

30 enemy aircraft were sighted of
the Ogasawara (Bonin) islands
about 500 miles south Of Japan
where a Japanese naval base is
located. 1t said Slight damage was
caused on Minami Tori. which il
described as one Of the Ogasa-
waras. Minami Tori, or Marcus
Island, lies $50 miles east Of the
Ogasawara group.

L. =. PLANES NOT HURT

The communique emphasized the
complete surprise with which Mac
Arthurs airmen. presumably flying
tiny P-40 fighters not designed for
bombing, hit the invaders. Not a
single American aircraft was dam
aged. the communique said. and for
the first time since December 7 no
enemy planes were inaction during
an air operation.
The fact that no Japanese planes
took 10 the air against MacAr-
thurs handful of attackers may be
because the enemy is employing
the bulk of its air strength in Java
and Burma, observers here be-
lieved.
There also have been signs, mill
tary men said, that japanese are
losing front line planes faster than
their factories are turning them
out. From the Philippines earlier
this week came reports that the
enemy was using some German
type bombers in that theater, and
interpreters here believed the
enemy may have been forced to
dip into reserves.
