Missionary Will 'RefueI'
For Christianity Fight

SEATTLE. May 20 (P).-The
Rev. Jacob De Shazer. who has
visited Japan with both bombs
and Bibles, has returned to
America for a bit of spiritual
refueling.
The refueling will be a year
of theological study to better
equip him for what he says
is an increasingly difficult battle
of Christianity to gain a foot
hold in the land of Buddhism
and Shintoism.
Three times he has gone to
Japan and each time he has
come back consecrated to the
life of a missionary in that far
country where Christianity once
was a capital crime.
The first trip was in 1912. He
was Sergt. De Shazer then, one
of the Doolittle raiders who led
the first allied aerial strike
against Japan in World War II.
He parachuted from his bombing
plane into "a months imprison-
ment. his only companion a
Bible he found in his cell.
The Bible had a message for
the youthful Madras (Oreg.)
flyer and he vowed to return to
spread that message. He did.
in 1948. as missionary for the
Free Methodist Church.
He returned for a few weeks
in 1858, then went back to the
vast, virtually untitled fields to
sew the seeds of Christianity.
This week, he and his wife and
four children, three Of them born
in Japan, arrived here to begin
studies for a year.
The work he has done thus far
in Japan, he said, has been diff
ficult; the seeds he has sown
have not fallen on ground he
would call particularly fertile.
Japan" he said, seems con-
