Registration
Set New Record

A new all-time record of quail
fled voters in Maricopa County for
balloting in the Sept. II primary
is certain, Roger C. Laveen, county
recorder, said last Wednesday after
more than 1000 registrations were
received on the last day before the
deadline.
The figure does not include the
registrations taken by 252 deputy
registers in the field as well as the
justices of the peace over the
county.
Laveen has estimated the count
will show at least 10000 quail
fled voters. The total will not be
determined until late in the week
after the registrations taken over
the county are reported.
Registration books will remain
closed until Sept. 13 when they will
be opened again to qualify voters
for the general election Nov. 7th.

Public Bathing
In japan
BY MACK G.. NANCE

In Japan; cleanliness of the body
is next to holiness. In fact, bathing,
is a silent, yet a fervent prayer
with the japanese people. Clean
Illness, is morally, physically, san
itarily, socially and above all,
SPIRITUALLY, obligatory, among
the 'Nipponese' people. Buddha,

frowns upon filthy one. $50 Saith

hiSm."
In the early days (1899-1900)
Japan's water system was poor,
crude and in many communities,
there was no water system at all.
There is no scarcity of water in
Japan but a poor system of distri-
button makes water a precious and
highly covetous domestic essential.
In the early days and even today,
in many communities, all water
for domestic purposes Cooking,
and drinking) is carried and ped
died by Japanese peasants. The cost
of water is only few SEN (100th
of a 'YenD per pail, yet the poor
people find it hard to hold out
enough sens to purchase water for
cooking and drinking and none
for bothing. I find the people of
Japan like the people of China,
living in two extremes: extremely
rich or extremely poor. If these
conditions are allowed to prevail,
the rich only, would be saved and
the poor would be lost.
Thus, the government steps in
and establishes, maintains, and
furnishes baths at a few sens per
bath. There are both public and
private baths. Public bath tubs
look more like watts or tanks and
will accommodate from two to ten
persons. In public baths, men, wo-
men and children, bathe together.
Charcoal fires are built under the
tub. When the water is hot enough,
hot Goals are pulled and placed
under another tub. The attendants
are young girls.
Private baths cost more but one
is blessed with privacy. A young
maid (Geisha GRID is provided to

tomorrow whether exiled King
Leopold III ever can return to his
vacant throne.
The issue rose when Leopold

troops May %. 1910.
The 48-year-old king is sweating
out the final hours at his Geneva
chalet. He returned by motor car
to Switzerland, where he has spent
most of the postwar period, after
a stay of several weeks on the
French Riviera.
Leopold has announced he will
abdicate if he fails to get SIS per
cent of the votes in the national

II he gets that, or more, he still
will have several hurdles between
him and the royal palace. But at
