Campaign Is Started
By the Associated Press

TOKYO, Dec. 22.-The Commu-
nifty Chest has come to Japan and
like this other American importa-
7tion, democracy, it befuddles many
Japanese.
The fact is, the common man
hasn't the slightest idea what
Japan's first nationwide Commu-
nifty Chest drive is all about, or why
1t Is necessary.
Through the centuries, the shac-
kled japanese mind never was pre-
pared for any individual responsible
ity for needy brother.

Perry Changed Attitude.
Then. in Japan's rapid advance
ment to world power after Commo-
dore Perry came, this changed to
"let the government do it.
Furthermore, the average Japa-
nese in the past, when 1t came to
charity. thought no further than
relief for a poor relative. His duty
stopped with his family.
This dea of helping out strangers
of responsibility to society as a whole
which the Community Chest brings
is indeed an alien one.
The average Japanese has been
tapped earlier this year for such
things as earthquake and flood re-
lief. which were emergencies.

The Tokyo Community Chest drive
ends December Is. Backed by such

Commerce and the Bank Federation,
it hopes TO raise $1l 100000 through

Asked if the goal will be reached,
one Tokyo drive official replied:

make it,"
That, if you know the Japanese
manner of saying things, is pretty
plain indication he doubts it.

Thirteen Southern Governors
in meeting at Asheville think
highly of a program of regional
schools for certain types of
graduate education. Instead of
mediocre local facilities, the
idea is to poll resources into a
first-class system of interstate
cooperation and establish
schools Of higher learning that
really amount TO something.
The Governors proclaim "that
the future Of the South is de-
pendent on it's education, a
statement which cannot be dis
puted, especially as the thirteen
Governors seem to pe agreed
that it is equally important to
provide education for the Negro
minority. There is no thought
by the Southerners that segre-
cation should be dropped. The
Asheville idea is considered an
immediate and practical ap-
proach to an intense problem.
Better to have a competent re-
gional system, this argument
runs, of training lawyers, doc
tors, dentists, etc than the ex-
listing makeshifts or complete
