thing from fortune-tellin to can
dy-selling in order to stay in BUSH

General Macarthur has stopped

tionalism abolished, the shrines
have little to offer; and since they
did not save the country from de-
feat. they don't get the support OF
parishioners in the way Christian
and Buddhist organizations do.
For example, the grand snrines
at Use have an annual budget of
100000 yen ($140,000 at the le-
gal exchange rate), but figure &C
get more than 100000 yen from

both ends meet. In the old days II

has built up a pretty good bust

While the shrines resort to
these diviccs to keep going, Japa-
