CHAPTER THREE
The tired old train seemed to
be wandering out into the depress-
ing countryside for no other pur-
pose than to drop down and rest.
It stopped for long periods at
every little wayside station; now
and then with startling speed -
contrasted to its usual rate OF
progress - it scampered onto a
siding and waited humbly for the
more important trains to flash by.
And it seemed, by the frequency
with which it took to sidings, that
any train other than itself was
important.
It seemed to Gail that she had
been travelling for days and days
in the stuffy day coach, surround
ed by the kind Of people she had
seldom encountered in her shell
tered life, when at last the friend
" old conductor came to her and
said, smiling, "Prentice station

American Aid Through LARA
Called Vital Factor in
Boosting Morale Of Japanese

Biographical Note: From 1921
until 1912 Or. Bot was in Japan
doing social welfare work for the
United Church Of Canada. He got
back to his home In Canada on the
first exchnge in 1912. He was one
of the two first American mission
aries to return after the war, has
spent year and a half dividing
his time between LARA and CWs

NEW YORK - American a
through the voluntary agencies of
LARA Licensed Agencies for Re-
lief in Asia) has been a paramount
factor In restoring self-respet to
the Japanese people and in height
ening their admiration for the de-
mocratic process, DR.. G. Ernest
Bott, first LARA official to return
to this country, declared in a press
conference here recently.
Dr.. Bott Is Director in Japan for
Church World Service, one of the
ID member church labor and civic
agencies in LARA. LARA Is the
only foreign relief organization per-
mitted to operate in Japan by the
Allied Military Command there.
The hard-pressed Japanese feel
that this help from former enc
mics signalizes faith in Japan's
ability to make a contribution to
the world community. DIR. Bott
said. At the same time it has
deepened heir regret for their coun-
try's role in the ws.r with the Uni
ted States.
This ministry of relief has re-
moved the occupation from the
context of domination" he observ-
ed.
TIE added that, "the fact these
supplies sent largely by member
church agencies have been dis
tributed without racial or religious
discrimination, has made the i'm
pact Of Christianity on the nation
many times greater than a pro-
gram limied to church members"
DR.. Bott said LARA has sent TO
Japan more than five : million
pounds Of foodstuffs, clothing and
other essentials since late last
year. This total was valued at
$1,512,000. Church World Service
representing more than a score If
U. s. Protestant and Orthodox de-
nominations, was the largest con-
tributor with 100000 pounds. A.

revel highly In striking contrast
with the misery Of the average pow
erty-stricken Nipponese subject.
Here is a shining example of
what happens when the east for

lighted rooms, horns blare raucous-
ly and Japanese jitterbugs jump
in a rather accurate version of the
American swing.
Japanese friends had volunteer
ed to take us to the most elite
spot in Tokyo, after explaining
that otherwise the variety was
small.
AS we approached, the noise
could be heard blocks away. At
the door, Tanaka-san, manager
