Award Winning Japanese
Movie Is Coming To
Kokusai Theatre

A japanese movie of eXcep-
tional qualities will be shown at
the Kokusai Theatre, 412 May
nard Ave-, Seattle, from Sept. Fl
through the oath.
1t is eThe Rikisha-man,"
which has been awarded the
Golden Lion of st. Mark at the
Venice Film Festival. In Toho-
scope, it is the most magnifi-
cent color photography ever to
reach the screen.
Synopsis of the Story
In the early 10th century,
around the time of the Russo
Japanese War, there lived in a
country town a rickshaw man
called Matsugoro. He was a
rough fellow, loving liquor and
fighting, but noted for his chiv-
alrous character.
Rickshaw men by custom
were granted free admission to
playhouses. Matsugoro, how
ever, was refused free entrance
by a theatre owner. He immed-
lately retaliated by cooking gar
lie inside the theatre, chasing
the customers away, and knock
ed down any opponents who APP
preached.
One day, Matsugoro finds a
boy who fell from a tree and
hurt his leg. He hurriedly takes
the boy to his home, where he
meets the boys beautiful moth
er. He comes under the patron
age Of the father who is an army
captain, Yoshioka by name.
This proves the beginning of his
deep friendship with this family.
Not long after that, Capt. Yo-
shioka takes i'll and passes away.
Mrs. Yoshioka, now widowed,
turns to Matsugoro for help in
bringing up the boy into stout
m anhood. Matsugoro stops
drinking and devotes himself to
the wishes of the widow.
The boy grows up into a
young man, and leaves home to
enter college. His departure
leaves a big empty spot in Mat
sugoro's heart, reverting him to
the habit of drinking He feels
affection towards the widow,
but cannot confess his love be-
cause of his obligation to her
recessed husband.
At the time of the village fes-
tival, the boy returns home with
his professor who looks for
fard to hearing the famous Gion
Drum. The drummer, however,
falls short of the peoples eX-
pectation. Seeing this, Matsugo-
70 goes up on the stage and be-
gins pounding the drum like an
old master drummer. Every one
is profoundly impressed by his
skill.
Feeling that he is no longer
needed, Matsugoro visits the
Yoshioka family to bid farewell
to the widow. Soon thereafter on
a snowy night, Matsugoro is
found lying in the snow, dead.
When his belongings are check
ed, tw obank books are found,
one in the name of the boy and
the other, Mrs. Yoshioka. The
money was saved from the gifts
he received from the Yoshioka
family. Realizing how much
Matsugoro thought of them, the
widow tearfully throws her
arms over the cold body.

Suit Is Filed

NORFOLK, Va, Aug. 81 (AP).
One claimant has filed suit
against the United States Gov
ernment and others are con-
Sidering appeals as a result of
a Federal judges decision that
the Cuban freighter Bahia de
Nipe is protected by the doc
trine of sovereign immunity and
must be returned to Cuba.
The United Fruit Sugar Corp.
of Boston filed suit yesterday
against the Government for
100000 for preventing it from
taking possession of the 5000
tons of sugar aboard the 3,800-
ton vessel.
Claims amounting to more
than $1,272, 900 have been filed
against the ship since it was
brought here August II by its
master and 10 crewmen who
asked and were granted political
asylum. The II had over
powered % other crewmen as
the vessel headed for Com
muniSt Baltic ports.
Although he ruled the United
States Coast Guard should not
have evented authorities
from seeking to attach the ship
for the claims, Federal Judge
Walter E. Hoffman decided the
doctrine of sovereign immu-
nifty took precedence and or
dered the ship returned to the
Castro government.
Judge Hoffman, however,
stayed execution of his Tues
day night order to permit ap-
peals, the first of which was
noted yesterday by three long
Shoremen who claim they hold
judgments totaling $132,295
against the vessel.
The United Fruit Sugar
Corp. and the Mayan Lines,
which has a $500,000 judg-
ment against Cuba, indicated
they will appeal the ruling. So
will the II detecting crewmen,
who claim they are owed back
wages.
Appeals are scheduled to
come before the United States

Gov. William A. Egan's
 commencement address at the
 University of Nevada in Reno
 carries a message for all
 graduates everywhere. The
 central theme of his address
 is reprinted ilere)
 The world is in ferment. But it is so because the people of the world are yearning for better lives. After years of cruel exploitation and enforced poverty and ignorance, they have been awakened to the better life that man is capable of attaining. The great major ity already have thrown off the chains of bondage and are now fighting the larger battle, to make their newly-Won free dom work. When before in hu- man history has an entire world population Wakened to such a call? Never
 T can think of no greater challenge today for those of us who have cast off oppression, who have beaten illiteracy and hunger than to give our mes sage to the revolutionary world. Man will despair if he sees no alternative to his servitude. But he will take heart if the path toward a better life is clearly shown and willing hands are offered to assist him.
 We cannot fail to meet this challenge. The stalemate that exists today will not long con tinue. Eventually, either free dom or tyranny will conquer and the outcome of the 20th century's revolution will be decided. If it is decided against us we will not only have lost the opportunity to usher in a golden age, we will be in dan ger of losing the heritage of freedom we have so long en- joyed Is there a more i'm portant task that awaits you? I think not.
 But you may ask what can l, lone individual without power, wealth or influence, do to help our cause?
 And I will ansu ar that not only is there something you can do, but that the cause will be lost without you"
