Her appreciation Of horses, dogs, cats,
birds and fish has resulted in some other most

The old stable ON GeorgetOwn's p street
which she shares with three other Washington

Miss Hobbs usually is accompanied else

polite poodle named Humperdinck, and jet
kitten called sunni after Chinese black ink
The artist found Sunni starving at Rehoboth
Beach and brought him back to health. Hum
perdinck contributed sincere, if doubtful,
assistance by licking the tiny kitten all over.

the lives of their Japanese friends.
Abol Fotouhi came to play the
shakuhachi (bamboo fiute) so
well that a local newspaper said
Of him: HE studied Japanese
classical music, koto,. and shaku-
hachi to the extent where he
would be preaching the Japanese
that they were the ones should
be conscious of safeguarding
traditional Japanese culture"
These aesthetic adventures were,
however, incidental to Fotouhi's
efforts in putting the American
Cultural Center on its way to
becoming-aS it soon did-a basic
part of the life of Hiroshima. He
plunged into a daily exhausting
round of greeting people, making
speeches. attending luncheons,
lecturing occasionally and in his
Office conducting what was known
as the English Speaking Group.
1t was composed of young profess
sors and students of the Econom-.
les and Political Science faculty of
Hiroshima University plus a num-
ber of businessmen, all of whom
had some knowledge of the Eng
lish language and desired to be-
come more fluent in it. The group
discussed various subjects but
mainly the history and politics of
the United States. Here was born

it clear to everyone that this was
a Joint Japanese-American fes-
tivity for the Fourth of July.
lmpromptu Speech
The great day came with a
heavy downpour of rain but a
crowd of japanese gathered out
side the Cultural Center while in
side the staff greeted the most
distinguished guests they had ever
had. They included the Governor
of Hiroshima prefecture, the
Mayor of Hiroshima, the presi-
dent of the chamber of commerce,
and about 200 others drawn from
cultural, educational. and busi-
ness groups. Among them was DR..
Himako Hirose, president of Joga-
kuhn College, who had received
part of her education in the
United States. She talked about
how Americans celebrate the
Fourth of July and what slg-
nificance the day might possess
for Japanese. Her speech made a
small sensation because she had
apparently been so moved that
she violated a japanese csron of
etiquette in talking without being
asked to do so. A japanese among
her listeners said, This surprised
us because we cannot expect
people to make imrromptu
speeches, We do hot usually make
speeches unless requested, and We
were afraid Mr.. Fotouhi might
think we had bad manners"
Various dignitaries spoke dur
ing the afternoon on Japanese
American relations, the Fourth of
July, and the Declaration of
Independence that, said one, was
drawn up by the then 33-year-
Thomas Jefferson, and it is also
famous for being well written"
Then there came, as a surprise to
the guests, including most of the
center's staff, performance by 18
members of the Suwa Ballet
School. Fotouhi introduced them
to the audience. told it that the
suggestion for their performance
and the money to pay for it had
come from the English Discussion
Group, and stressed the signifi-
canoe of a Fourth of July cele-
bration that embraced Japanese
cultural forms and was in every
way a joint Japanese-American
festivity.
A local reporter observed that
THE party which followed the
dance was in American style in
which both the japanese and
Americans mixed and conversed
happily" (The food for the
supper had been prepared by Mrs.
Fotouhi.)
Fireworks, Too

works display began in front of
the cultural center compound. 1t
was. surprisingly, on a greater
scale than had been attempted in
Hiroshima within contemporary
memory. THE fireworks added
colors beautifully to the summer
sky at night" said a japanese wit
ness, pleasing men and women
and children who were out to
enjoy the cool air. Especially a

OBSCENITY: Overthrew, 81, a
Los Angeles ordinance making it
unlawful for a bookseller to have

firework drawing luminous Stars
and Stripes against the dark sky
was a becoming attraction for In
dependence Day"
This was the same sky that had
been balefully Illuminated only
a few years earlier by an Ameri-
can atomic bomb.
Abol Fotouhi who, with his wife
and child. had won Hiroshima
over, was born in 1910. the son of
a wealthy landowning family in
the Iranian province of Azerbai-
jan. After receiving a primary
school education at American
missionary and Iranian schools, he
entered the University of North
Carolina in 1888 and later at
tended Purdue and George Wash
ington University. When he was
married in 1887 he applied for
American citizenship, became a
United States Army veteran of
the bitterly contested New
Guinea campaign against the Jap
anese. landed IN Japan in 1945
as member of the United States
Occupation Forces and then made
up his mind to return to the
country as an agent of goodwill.
Wanted Him to Stoy
Although Fotouhi's tour of duty
in Hiroshima heightened to nearly
four and a half years, when it
was learned that he was about
to be transferred, japanese dig
nitaries took unprecedented steps
to keep him among them. Gov.
Ohara of Hiroshima Prefecture,
Mayor Watanabe of Hiroshima
and President Morito of Hiro-
shima University Jointly petit
toned the State Department to
prolong Fotouhi's term among
them, while one university pro-
fessor dreading his coming de-
parture wrote. Il lost my father
and all my property in the A.
bomb attack, but I have, through
Mr.. Fotouhi's profound character,
come to feel that his remaining
here is desired not only for the
sake of the United States but
for the welfare of mankind"
The Hiroshima community re-
fused to accept the fact of Fo-
touhi's transfer to another post
until the American Consul Gen.
eral at Kobe was sent there ex-
presSly to explain that under
State Department regulations it
was impossible that he should re-
main longer in the area.
When the FotouhiS left Hiro-
shima on April %. 1857, the
Chigoku Shimbun said:
g. There has never been a
foreigner like him, liked and loved
so much by everyone. Many
people representing various circles
of society thronged into the sta
ton and sent them off with tears.
Such heartfelt sendoff obviously
Endorsed the laSt-minute move
ment with which some of the
citizens sincerely protested his
departure from Hiroshima, al
though the attitude of the citizens
when he assumed his Office in
Hiroshima was none too hos
pitable."

been echoes and applications,
when not distortions. of princi-
piles laid down by them"
Mr.. stewart rebutted Mr..
Frankfurter with quotations from
both Holmes and Brandeis. The
latter, he recalled. had said:
IF the Government becomes a
lawpreaker, it breeds contempt for
law; it invites every man to be-
come a law unto himself; it in
vites anarchy. To declare that in
the administration of the crimi-
nal law the end justif1es the
means-to declare that the Gov
ernment may commit crimes in
order to secure the conviction of
a private criminal-would bring
terrible retribution."
The growing cleavage between
the courts two factions is most
evident on civil liberties issues.
The conservative view is that
the rights of Government must
on occasion override those of the
individual, where the aim is the
greater good of. all. To the courts
liberals there is no compromise in
safeguarding the fundamental
rights of the individual under the
Constitution.
Thus they objected during the
last term to the conviction of Col.
Rudolf Abel on evidence which
they regarded as illegally seized,
though the guilt of the Soviet
espionage agent was clear.
The Proemotic View
Perhaps the clearest expression
of the more pragmatic view of
the conservatives came on the
courts decision stripping the mil
itary services of authority to try
civilians by court martial in
peacetime. With an eye to the
legal problems the court was
spawning, Justices Harlan and
Frankfurter would have continued
courts-martial for all but capital
crimes. Justices Whitaker and
Stewart would have left military
dependents who commit non-
capital crimes under courts-mar-
tial discipline. but exempted civil
ian employees of the armed forces
from military justice.
The liberals saw nothing in the
constitutional principle involved

mever in mans history had so
many human beings been killed
and manned so swiftly and so
much property destroyed by so
novel a means. At 8:15 am. on
August 6, 1945, the first atomic
bomb used in warfare was dropped
from an American aircraft on
Hiroshima, Japan. Within Sec
onds tens of thousands of Japa-
nese lay dead or manned amid the
wreckage of their city.
Yet only eight years later, the
Stars and Stripes for the first time
waved over the premises of the
United States Cultural Center in
Hiroshima as citizens, together
with municipal. prefectural and
university officials at their own ex-
pense and upon their own initia-
tive staged a celebration honoring
Americas Independence Day. It
included addresses by prominent
Japanese that breathed good will
toward the United States, a per-
formance by a. local dance group,
supper at the center, and a 80
minutes fireworks display. Its
principal figure, in the words of
the Chigoku Shimbun, the most
influential newspaper Of the area
with a circulation exceeding
100000 copies, was "a framed fire.
work of some feet square flaring
out Star-Spangled Banner
against the darkness. -"
This miracle of good relations
between nations only recently at
war with one another was largely
wrought, first, by the wisely mag
unanimous policy of the conquering
United States toward defeated
Japan and, second, by the precept
and example of the director of
the American Cultural Center in
Hiroshima, Iranian-born Abol
Fotouhi, ably seconded by his
American-bor wife Agnes, and
their young daughter Farida.
Volunteered for Hiroshima
When the Fotouhis arrived in
Tokyo in December, 1852, they
had insisted on serving in Hiro-
shima although the American
Embassy was reluctant to let them
do so. Its officials argued that the
bombed city lacked housing of
Western or Japanese style, heat
ing facilities and nearly everything
that made for even the rudimen-
tary comfort and the preserva-
ton Of good health. The largest
number of Americans living there
were scientists engaged in the
melancholy task of studying the
effects Of atomic radiation on its
victims. Only seven years had
passed since the falling of The
Bomb, time had not yet wrought
its healing effects, and local left
lists were trying to keep the
wounds fostering. Hence the pros
pect was that the Fotouhis would
lead a lonely, spartan existence,
among a restrained hostile popu-
lace that had no reason to love
them or their country.
They we're, undeterred by all
this and the end of 1852 found

them in Hiroshima. They bought
a japanese style house since none
was available for rent. They en-
tered their daughter in a Japa-
nese school where she quickly
began to learn. Japanese and get
on excellent terms with her school
mates. Fotouhi told sceptical
Japanese reporters that he and
his family wanted to become ac-
tive members of the community,
their mission was to stimulate
goodwill between Japan and the
United States, and they hoped
to learn from their hosts as well
as to be permitted the privilege
perhaps Of bringing them, in par
tial exchange, some knowledge of
various elements of American life
and ways.
On Adapting Themselves
The American family plunged
into the life of the japanese COM
munity. Farida learned to play
the koto (harp). Her mother be-
came adept in the graceful in
tricacies Of the tea ceremony, a
player of the koto, teacher of
English. and director of a course
in nutrition that featured 30-yen
Q0c) meals. Mother and daugh-
ter entered into many phases of
