He told us that the natural de.

edge, their impotence with rela.
tivism and scepticism and their
delicate sense of values make
them excellent subjects for con.
version to the Faith.
In answer to the criticism of
some Westerners that the Church
does not encourage native voca-
tons enough, Father Roggendorf
said that it is true that European
missionaries outnumber native
clergy three to one. 1t is also true,
he added, that a number of Jap
anese priests have been sent to
Europe and a few to the United
States and Latin America to take
care of japanese there.
Father Roggendorf told us that
he felt this is a wise decision.
Japan's determination to learn
the ways of the West can best be
served by the use of European
missionaries. Her emigres are
best served by emigre priests, he
said.

K = Japan is a
country divided between ira
dition and progress.
She has a civilization of
great beauty and profound
significance. Her people wish to
cling to it. But she has long
felt herself to be a nation of des-
tiny, a nation which eyes the ma
terial progress of the West with
approval. She is determined to 60
forward toward prosperity in the
Western sense without losing
touch with her own great past.
The Catholic Church in Japan
is taking the opportunity to show
Japan how to accomplish this diff
ficult feat. One way the Church
is using may be illustrated by a
visit we made to a settlement
house in a poor district here.
A creaking wooden door opened
into an open courtyard filled with
children, their voices excitedly
announcing the arrival of visitors.
A man in the black cassock of a
Catholic priest came forward to
greet us, gently pushing his way
through his noisy young charges.

In Many Strange Way:

FuSHIMI, Japan-An ear for
music Is q definite asset, this
veteran missioner learned here
recently.
While Father Leopold N. IT.

a recent census tour Of the par
ish, he recognized the piano
music Of "Jesu, Joy of Mans
Desiring" coming from q near
by home.
Thinking that the home must
be Catholic, Father Tibesar
rang the doorbell. The pianist
was a middle aged man, who
quickly admitted that he was
not Catholic, but simply pro
Bach. Whereupon the pastor
and the musician entered into
such a long discussion Of their
mutual love for music that fhe
musician decided he should
know more about fhe priests

That evening Father Tibesar
welcomed . new face at the

5. Mission Sunday is the day
we realize that our neighbor is
not the one who lives next
door. but one of another race
as was the Samaritan to the
Jew.
6. Mission Sunday Is an OPP
portunity to make reparation
for our sins.
7. Mission Sunday is the en-
planting of the cross in our
hearts, for if Christ died for
sinners of the whole world, then
we who have the Faith, must
make genuine sacrifices of our
possessions to be worthy of be-
ing called Christian.
8. Mission Sunday is an ex-
animation of conscience. 1t is
right and just of us who have
been signed with the Sign of
the Cross to spend more on
cigarettes or alcohol than we
spend in curing lepers in AT
RIGA, teaching the ignorant in
South East Asia, or healing the
sick in India?
8. Mission Sunday is part of
of that great Mission that be-
gan when the Father sent His
Son, the Son sent His Spirit,
the Spirit sent the apostles to
the ends of the earth, and the
apostles sent the Directors of
the Society for the Propagation
of the Faith to you with empty
hands.
10. Mission Sunday is the day
on which, if you make a sac
rifice for the $4,000, 900 whom
we aided last year in the world,
the National Director will read
a Mass of Thanksgiving for the
coming year for your intention.

Hurriedly he shook hands with
us, then quoted the children with
a gesture. He spoke briefly in
Japanese.
The little ones bowed solemn
.Iy in unison with grave looks
on their faces and gave US a
miniature greeting Jap anese
style. Then, just as suddenly,
they smiled and began to shout,
Hello"
This introduction to the Catho-
lie settlement house for pre-
school age children symbolized
for us the blending of 1.-The old
and new in present day Japan.
The Jesuit priest who is in
charge of the settlement house
explained: eve are careful to
preserve the social customs of the
people when we take care of their
children. Of course, they have
learned American ways, too"
He told us that the settlement
house was established to care for
the children of working mothers.
"Many Of them are non-cat
oIie." he said, "bvt they trust
the priests and Sisters to care
for their children. Some Of
them are eager TO have their
children learn about religion
from Us. They seem to feel
that the future Of Japan lies in
fhe Christian religion. But they
also want their children to be
aware OF the tradition and u.s.
toms of old Japan. We try to
preserve The old as well IS TO
teach the new"
The Jesuit-operated settlement
house is not only a kindergarten
for the children of working par.
ents, but is also a health center
and clinic for families in the area.
On Saturday mornings whole fam.
lilies may be seen in a long line
stretching out for nearly a block
all waiting their turns to be ex,
amined and treated. The Jap,
anese in the neighborhood seem
to prefer the Catholic clinic to
the clinics set up at government
expense.
In q letter to His Eminence
Josef Cardinal Frings, Arch
bishop Of Cologne, Archbishop
Peter Dol Of Tokyo referred TO
"fhe tiny Catholic flock Of ia
PAM" Catholics are few, but
they are increasing.
Only one-quarter of one per
cent of the more than 80 million
inhabitants Of Japan are Catho'
lie but within the past 10 years
the tiny Catholic flock has grown
in influence as well as in size. A
surprising number of Japanese
political and cultural leaders have
been converted to Catholicism.
Respect for the Catholic Church
has constantly increased even
among those who are generally
critical of Christianity and of
Western culture.
Perhaps this is because of the
great personal respect for the
Pope, whose outspoken interest
in the promotion of international
peace and understanding has
made him quite popular among
the Japanese. His speeches are Of
ten headlined in preference to the
solemn pronounc e N. ents and
threats of secular leaders.

eovragement Of . sympathetic
study Of japanese culture and
her renewed emphasis on the

Review OF Mosquito
Control Work Planned
(COntinued from mage onel

However, under this revised pro-
gram, any arrangements for ground
spraying in unincOrpOrated COM
munities will have to be made with
in those communities, by ciYic
groups or by individuals.
This condition will be particular
ly true in some of the larger unin-
corpOrated residential areas in
upper New Castle County.
Charles D. Murphy, Jr., Mosquito
Control Director for the State
Highway Department, who presid-
ed during Inc session, reviewed the
trenchiGs work that is being car
ried on through marshlands, but
pointed out that there remained a
very large amount of this work
10 be done.
Various members of the Commit
offered some very pointed remarks
to the effect that the MOSQUITO
control work was in it's infancy
and that only a continuous effort
would succeed in getting some of
the desired results.
R. A Haber, Chief Engineer of
the State Highway Department,
spoke in reference to the budget al
locations for mosquito control work
for the next biennium and how the
Department would be able to plan
on the basis of those ALLEGATIONS.
Lt.-COl. E. NJ Mottern, repre-
senting the Dover Air Force Base,
again reviewed the plans of the
Air Force to cooperate in the spray
program but cited that there were
still some objections being made
by owners of marshland
This brought comment from DIR.
Richard r. DOrsie, Jr., of the Uni
versity of Delaware staff, concern
ing studies that have been made
with the formula used in the spray
ing work and how it was found not
to be harmful to plant or wild life,
or for that matter, to anything with
which it came in contact.
Mr.. Murphy said his Department
would proceed with plans for aerial
spraying in all sections outside of
incorporated cities and that this
spray program would be made to
fit into the spray work carried on
by the Air Force.
Clayton M. Hoff, representing the
Delaware Commission on Inter
state Cooperation, discussed the
need for attention being given to
those residential areas outside of
incorporated cities and expressed
approval of the plan to block out
whole sections for the spray work
in order to cover the areas adjacent
to these residential sections.
Others attending the meeting
were DR.. Floyd l. Hudson and Dom
aid K. Harmeson, representing the
