At this gathering Premier Tozyo reaffirmed hi assurances made on two occasions in the Diet regarding Nippon's attitude of granting independe nce to the Filipinos at an early date. (See N.P. o. 1 & 8.)

NIPPON-PillUPPINES

PREMIER TOZYO BACK FROM MANILA REPORTS ON PHILIPPINES SITUATION ..

Prem ier Tozyo re turned from Manila on May 8th by plane. Whe n interviewed at the airfield he expressed satisfaction of the complete unity existing between ippon and the Philippine and the latter's sin cerity and understanding for the need to prosecute the war to a succe ful victory.

Outlining the purpose of his visit to the Philippines, he said that he had " heart to heart talks with the leaders of the Philippines Execu tive Com· lnission . "

He then paid a glowing tribute to the acti vities of the Imperial Forces in the Philippines, which were being carried out in most trying conditions.

Besides the actual war operations, he co ntinued. the Im perial Forces are " maintaining peace and order. " " The Mi litary Administration in the Philippines is overcoming numerous obstacles and is progressing steadily and satisfactorily, " Premier Tozyo said . " It is especially noteworthy that everyo,ne- whether of the military forces. everyone under· governmen or the people, whether Japanese or Filipin stands full y the signifi can ce of the presen t war and the re ponsibilities given to the Philippines. And I felt very grati fied in seeing with my own eyes that everyone was giving his all in his given post.

Congratu lates the Filipinos In r~ferriJlg particularly to the Filippinos, Prime Minister Tozyo declared " It is a matter of f~lici tatio ns for the Phi li ppines. as we ll as to the whole of Greater East Asia, tbat the people of the Philippine especiall y understand Japan's sin cerity and that they are cooperating with the Military Admin istra· tion : and that Chief of the Phili ppine Execu tive Commission Jorge Vargas and other leaders aTe giving their all , doing everything they ca n. for the rebuilding of the Philippine and for the uccessful prosecution of the War of Greater East Asia. " Ame rican rule denounced In speaking abou t the America n materialisti c civilization and its baneful effe ct upon tbe Filipino's piritu al aspect Premier Tozyo said, "A meri ca's rule in the Filippine was an ex treme one with consideration on ly for Arne· rica itself. On the surface it dazzled and blinded the Filipino with it fonn of a beautiful and wonderful materialisti c civilization. but behind that it purposely did nothing for the development of a sturdy and progre. sive temper, so absolutely llece ary for the bui lding of a nation . " America al 0 purpose ly did nothing for the building of economic strength in the Philippines, whi ch is an absolu te requis ite for indepe ndence.

America held firmly to it po li cy of keeping forever the Phi lippines as all Ameri an colony. ,. For long yew's the people of the Pllilippines were int o~icated by this poison wine but with the development of t'he War of Creater East -ia they have now awakened to their true mission."

Then the p J'emier clo ed hi remarks with these sign ifi cant words. \ hi eh presaged the a llran ce of an early independence . .. And [ think th at if the people of the Philippin es CWT Y out a flll·ther strengthening of thi awake ning. and these efforts. the co nstru ction of a New Philippi ne will not be far off.

"Seeing with my own eyes the actual itu ati on in t1\C Philippines. aud laking that toge ther with the brilli ant development of China and Man· choukuo and the advance of the con truction of ew Burma, I am cl eply moved anew by the infinite greatness of the Imperial Grace .. "

HUMAN SIDE OF PREMIER TOZYO ut ide of ippoll the world doubtles e ntertains the notion that Prime Minister Tazya Hideki is a tough militaryadministrator who alway moves about in Ius boot and sp urs. He is ah ay pictured in hi military uniform, which give. the foreigners the iml re ion that he is hard-boi led.

Every minut o[ Premier Tazya' lime is taken up by hi, oAieia! duties, yet he find tim e to mix \ ith the populace. I n addition to holding the oflice of Prime Minister, he is al 0 the War Iinister. Many a time he goes abo ut in cognito or in plain ci\~ li an attire and get into the heart of the people. ometime he is found riding on hor e-back, strolling. visiting the farming district, mines, fa ctorie, fami lies o[ soldiers and chatting with them. His chats are informal and partakc the nature o[ the average ma n inquiring into the hea lth and welfare of his neighbors or [riends. o other prime mini tcr ha bee n so close to tbe people.

FLEET -ADMIRAL YAMAMOTO ISOROKU Builder of Naval Air Force Tn the passing of Fleet-Admiral Yamamoto Isoroku . who met a heroic death somewhere in the southern front, ippon has lost a master nava l strategist and upholder of the Imperial nava l prowess. But hi spmt continues to live as an inspiration to all loya l and patriotic subjects of Nippon.

Admiral Yamamoto was the Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet, but unl ike the Am eri ca n and British offi cers of corresponding ra nk, he went to the front line and took an active command .

The lightni ng attack On Pearl Harbor, whi ch destroyed one-half of the US Pacifi c fl eet and more than 500 war planes, as well as the sinki ng of the Prince of Wales and the Repulse must have been the carefull y planned strategic operations of Admiral Yamamoto.

Ad mira l Yamamoto's personal experience at the Washington and London conferences whi ch imposed the humi liating ratio of 5- 5- 3 in the naval strength of Ameri ca, Britain and Ni ppon prodded him to augment the Imperial navy in some other way. He advocated a stTong air force.

When he was once a ked how the Ameri can navy should be attacked in case of a war between Nippon and the US, he snapped , " We' ll smash the American fl eet with our air force !" Few agreed with him then , for Nipporr' air force was in its infant stage , and many cl ung to surface craft and submarine a the mainstay.

How prophetic were his words since the outbreak of the war! Today the naval air force is causing havoc to the enemy Heet and military establishments. Fleet-Admiral Yamamoto's champiouing of a powerful air force has been fully justified, a nd it is unfortunate that he has not lived to see his contention fulfilled.

The successor to the late Fleet-Admiral Yamamoto has been appointed in the person of Admiral Koga Mineiti. ippon is placing implicit confidence in the new Commander-in-Chief, who is recognized as one of tbe most capable oHicers in the Imperial Navy, to uphold the noble traditions and the naval fighting spirit which have been transmitted from Fleet-Admiral Togo Heihatiro, who crushed the Russian Baltic Heet in the Nippon-Russo War in 1904.

FARMERS IN THE MAK ING ew Gu inea has re mained a ,. dru'k island " unexp lored but full y exploi ted by the British and Dutch. But whe n it was occupied by Nippon troop , the Papuan were taught the ar t of farming in modern way 0 that they could pro· d uce abun dan t food to enable them to become self· upporling.

Mosquitoes, the carriers of malaria, are being extermin路 ated at their breeding places while they are still in the larvae stage.

In appreciation for these acts of kindness the natives are voluntarily offering their services to the Nippon forces . .They are helpful in clearing away the jungles, and bui Iding roads.

NIPPON-PHI LIPPfNES

How he solved the gray hair and bald-hended iss lies llis isn-t a di sertation on the art of hair growing, dying, or how to keep the hair from falling off, which finally end in baldness. Two tlrings which men con ider baneful or perhaps 'mentally painfu l are having a crop of gray hair and the agony of baldness. Well, which would you prefer- having gray hair or being bald-headed? ine out of ten men will snap back, "Nei ther. We want to remain perpetually youtllful! " Ah, but that's unfair and selfish.

Gray llair is a sign of advancing age.

Sometime it lend to an undue prestige 0 proof is and dignity to the victim. needed to support the general belief that gray hair is an indication of old age!

On the other hand baldness does not nece arily mean that the possessor thereof is an aged person.

By the way this reminds u of the story of Jack and Bill- two taunch friends. Both grew up together in the same town , attended the same school, courted the same girl, but neither of whom won her.

Perhaps the girl foresaw the consequences that might arise had she chosen oue of them (it being eviden t that she couldn' t marry both .)

In due cour e Jack and Bill married other girls and lived happily for a wllile. But gradually their dome tic bli became gray and tlrin . Jack's domestic woes began when his hair commenceJ to tlun gray. Likewise with Bill, whose dome started to become thin. In fact his hair fell off more rapid ly tl18n the speed with whi h Jack's hair turned gray.

Jack and Bill lived at the opposite ends of the town, but both patronized the common barber located in the central part of the town. He happened to be the same barber whom the

boys u ed to go for hair cut while they were still in their knee pants. The barber was fond of the boys, and they u ed to ca ll lrim " uncle. " The boys not only went to tlris barber for hair cut but also songht advice and counse l even in personal problems.

Their immediate problems were J a 路k' gray hair and Bill's baldness. Both were till in the early thirtie , and normally wonld not have succumbed to these maladie at such stage. The barber had prepared special tonic a hair dye and hair grower or restorer for these boys. They literally followed the barber's advi e and applied these remed ies for their respective cases.

One day a stranger c me into the barbershop, and after making a critical survey of the shop, parti ularly of the clippers. combs, chair, towels, etc. seatted him elf on the chair.

r~

Hair cut without the barber's itch,"

he demanded. The barber eyed the new cu tomer and thought of throwing lilin out for u h inso lence.

"Who are yo u, anyway?" the barber challenged. He was never so insulted and hluniliated. " Me ? I'm the new health inspector. and I'm making my round of ('aUs on the barbershops today. r find yo ur hop a fairly hea lthy place," the stranger informed the barber. This la t remark seemed to have taken the sting out of the initia l impuden ce and omewhat softened the barber's tempe r. f n fa t it tick led hi vanity.

The customer was in tbe forties, but there wasn't a particle of gray hair on his bead. This was a unique case, the barber thought, and complimented the customer, whereupon the latter bega n to pour forth what he called the ,. secrets of keeping the hair in youthful apl;ea; ran ee. "

"Worry and nerve strain may ca use hair to tllrn gray. Sometimes hock or sudden fright may turn the hair white overnight, but that's rare," the stranger began. " On ce the hair becomes gray there i' no means of restoring it to the normal co lor. The so-called 'hair restorer" are nothing more than dye, and do more harm than good, but the darn fool public dou' t seem to understand," an I looked straight iuto the barber's face through the mirror in front. " ow about baldness," the customer continued.

C~

ccord-

ing to medical explanation there are two kind of baldness. One is caused by various types of diseases, and baldness disapperu's when the diease is cllred. By disappearance I mean the hair grow as mysteriously as it dropped out.

DR. HIRAGA MASTER WARSHIP DESIGNER HOW HE TACKLED THE 5路5路3 RATIO

Inthe passing of Dr. lIiraga Yuzuru on February 17th last, Nippon has lost all un usually capa ble con tnt tor or warship designer the world has ever produced. Imm edia tely upon graduating from the e ngineering department of the Tokyo Imperial University in 190] , he entered the avya fir t cia Co nstructor Sub-Lieutena nt, and had been co nnected with the Navy until 1931.

Duri ng this period of 30 year Dr. I! iraga had designed mo t of ippon's battle hips, cruiser, aircraft carriers, destroyer and ubmarines, in cluding such battle hips as aga to a nd M utu.

IL i not a n id le metaphor to say that Dr. lIiraga' navy is today pitling aga inst the American and British navies.

After the la t Europea n War. about 25 year ago, eve ry power of any importa n e started strengthening its navy, a nd a naval armam enlraccbecame imminent.

IL began to mobilize the best avai lable ta lent and tec hni ca l ki ll in the rlesigning and building of warships. Thus the baule of scientifi c knowlerlge a nd skill com menced before the aetual nava l e ngageme nts took place.

In Lhis post-war nava l race N ippon's program ca lled for th constru ction of 8 hatLle-cruisers of over 40,000 tons,

and 8 battleships larger than the cruisers. Thi program was popularly known a the ,. 8- 8 f1 ee l. '路 T here wa an immediate reper cussion in the United tate a nd England over ippon's naval build i ng program. omething mu t be done to check thi growing ippon's nava l prowes, these Anglo-America n powers decider!. a nd accordingly the U ponsored th ~ 0 - ca lled " disarmament confere nce" which me t in Wasllington 011 November 2 1, 1921. ThEl, conferen ce resulted in the igning of the Wa Ilington aval Treaty on February 6. 1922, whereby ~he US, Britain. Nippon, France and Italy, agreed not to bui ld additional c pita I ships for a period of 10 year .

'The sweeping proposal submitted by the were:J) That all capi ta l-ship bui lding programmes, ei ther actua l or projected, sholdd be abando ned: 2) That fluther red uction honld be made through the scrappi ng of ce rtain of the older hip; 3) That in general regard should be had to the ex i ting naval stre ngth of the Power concerned: 4) That the capita l-ship tonnage should be used as the measureme nt of stre ngth for navies and a proportionate al lowance of auxi.liary combatant craft prescribed . ,. ippon's efforts to secure a ratio of 10-10-7 proved futil e, a nd she accepted a ratio of 5-5-3. assuming that she would be given parity, or at lea t a grea te r a ll otmen t in the futtll'e. Under thi 5-5-3 ratio the max imum tonnages of capital ships were fixed a t 525,000 tons for the US: 525,000 ton for Britain: a nd 3 l5,000 tons for ippon. Pressure wa brought ul on Britai n to re linquish her nava l upremacy and accep t parity with the up tart Ameri an na,'Y' This ratio of 5- 5-3 wou ld ha,'e been inadeq ua te to secu]'e ippo n' nalional defenee, but circum tances were sueh that she had to accep t it or run the risk

of naval competition with the US and Britaill who were in finan cial po ition to outrnn ippon. Therefore ippon suhmitted to this unfair and humiliating ratio, but she did not consider this Anglo-America n impo ition should be final. Meanwhile ippon made plans to augment the defen e in some other way. What the US believed to have been a coercive triumph proved a boomerang on December 8, 1941. in tbe initial attack on Pearl lIarbor.

Dr. Hiraga then found a way Olll.

The Washin!!:!"n treaty limited the building of capital hips and of cruiser over] 0.000 ton. Therefore , he concei,'ed the idea of " rejuvenating" the existing crui ers of 10,000 ton cia s by equippinr, them with gun of large calibre and of increasing the peed of ueh ships. After much study and experimenting Dr. Hiraga had an experimental or model crlli er bnilt upon certain specifi a tions drafted by him. This model cruiser was less thall 3,000 tons, and equipped with six 14 C.m. gun~, 4 torpe10 tubes and had a speed of 33 knots.

Another headache fOT 10hn Bull and Uncle am, but they had planned to cover this point .later at the London aval conference. which was convened in 1930 according to the terms of the Wa hington Naval Treaty . This London treaty supplemen ted what the AngloAm erican powers co nsi路dered to have bee n the loop-hole in the Washington treaty by limiting the ratio for eflli er and heavy g'lllS. It also ex te nded the ca pi tal ship building holiday for a furth er period of six year. lL i e"ident that this proposa l was intended to further stifle ippon 's na,'al defense.

Nippon's de legate advocated a ratio of 70 % as against the Ameri can and British navie , but the plea wa turned down. A eco nd humiliation forippon.

After the expiration of the London treaty in 1936, ippon served notice that she would 110 longer be bound by any naval disa nnament arrangement

KrLFULLY DESIGNED B' DR. HIRAGA THE IMPERIAL "loA \ REMAI"~ I;\IPHEGNABLE

which might threa ten her defen e, and began building her navy unfettered.

Dr. Hiraga was not a mere ship de igner, but a loyal patriotic shipbuilder who put his heart and oul into tbe bui lding of an invincible Imperial Navy.

He has personally challe nged the AngloAmerica n constru ctors and hip designer in the present naval will路fare. Today the Iliraga designed warships are causing havoc upon the American and British navies. Dr. Hiraga ha lived to see his elforts amply rewarded by the succe ive victories achieved by the Im peria l avy.

Of course, it is admi tted on aU ides that the strength of the Imperial Navy lie ill the intense loya lty and courage of the offi cers a nd men who instintingly wiU lay down their lives for the Emperor.

00 the other hand we must not overlook the unsung and undisclosed heroism of tho e who have devised superior warships, aeroplane, munition , torpe. doe or bombs. Dr. Hiraga's prillcipal contribution was that of designing warships which have proved far superi or and more effe tive than tho e of other countries.

Dr. Hiraga Yuzuru, the second SO n of Hiraga Sauemon, was born in 1878 at Hiro ima prefecture . In 1898 he entered the University of Tokyo, and graduated from the e ngineering department in 1901, having specialized in shipbuilding. Upon his graduation he e ntered the avy and erved as techni'al expert at the nava l dockyards.

After the Nippon-Russo war Dr. Hiraga wa se nt to E ngland , where he attended the ava l Co ll ege Greenwi ch , and graduated from the naval constru ction department in 1908. Upo n his re urn from England the foll owi ng sprmg he entered the ava l Technica l Depa tn~ent, a n also lec ured at the Tokyo (mperia l University until 1912.

He alSo served in the onstru ctors Department and Technical Department at Yoko uka aval tation.

Tn 1918 he wa appoin ted professor in the engineering department at the Tokyo Imperial University, and received hi doctorate degree the foll owing year.

He took a year's leave of absence from niversity in October 1923, and the travelled ex tensive ly in E urope and America. UpOIl his re turo Dr. Hiraga was appointed Director of Naval Co nstruction Re eareh J nstitute and Director of ava l Technical He ea rch In titute, which posts ga ve hi.m an opportuni.ty to exert his utmo t effort towards lrengthening the 1m] erial navy.

Upon entering the avy, Dr. Hiraga's fir t job, which he had tackled and ucceeded. was the sa lvaging of " Musasi ,. and " Yaeyama ,. which had run agro und at emuro in 1903. These ships were scientifi cally Aoated by resorting to the most minute mathemaLi a l calculations.

The experience gai ned in the raising of these ships proved va luable in sa lvaging the Russian war hips which had been sunk in Port Arthur during the ipponRusso war.

When the warship .. Furutaka" ' a bu ilt her sheer were de igned differ ently from the customary symme trica l sheer. Although awkward in appea rance, Dr. Hiraga believed that u ch sheers would b mo t app ropriate for war hips. Thi departure in war hip construction astolllshed the Briti h navy at that time , but today both the America n and Engli It na"ies ha,'e imitated such designs.

What appeared to be impossible fea t was accolllpli h d by Dr. Hiraga when he made it fca ible for erui er und er 10,000 ton to b equipped with 8 in ch guns. Late r he streamlioed the funn e ls and mas ts. Foreign hip. ueh as Normandie and Bremen. subseq uently adopted the streamline design after the fashion of Dr. I-liraga's idea.

After Dr. lIiraga had resigned from the avy in 1931. he re lLlll d hi" profe. or hip at the ni, e rsity. anti in 1938 he was made President of hi a lma mater. I n 1936 he \\ as appointed RearAdmiral and became uperintendent of the Naval TecllJlical He eareh Institute.

Dr. Hiraga's hobbies were culLi vati ng chrysan them LUll and ,. bon sai " or dwarftree culture. He was fond of SOtTer and baeeba U. and natura!!y became an ardent fan in theec SpOT! .

While lam enting Lhe loss of Dr. Il iraga, every subject of ippon is confidenLly hoping that other equally capable men will fill Dr. lI iraga Yuzuru's shoes so that the coun try can t"o ntinue to remain a Irong nm-a l power.

Momma ahuro's faCLion challe nges Ya no Syogoro school

to a match. There is a powerful expert under Momma Saburo named Higalci Gennosuke who naturally would have been chosen but for his undesirable personal trait. Instead Momma Saburo decides to participate in the tourname nt against uga ta 3ansiro who is chosen to represent Yano Syogo ro's group. ugala Sansiro burls hi ad,'er ary agai nst the wall which throw unfortunately causes the latter' death.

Osumi, daughter of Momma Saburo, tries to seek revenge for the death of her father . She tTails Sugala Sa nsiro to a temple and is about to stab him when his teacher, Yano Syogoro, r.omes to the rescue by throwing his pupil. Then Yano Syogoro reproaches Sugata Sansiro for bei,ng off-guard as to permit the possibility of such attatk by Osumi. Tn other words Suga ta Sansiro still lacks the maki ngs oj a full-fl edged zyiido artist. Sugata Sansiro realizes that he stiil has much to learn and strives to improve him. elf.

A zyiido tournament is arranged between thl( yiidokan Zyiido and another zyUzyutu group led hy Murai Hansuke.

Sugata Sansiro is chosen to represent the Syiidokan Zyiido.

Higaki Genno uke, an aml .iLious self-seeking zyUzutu artist, who is in love with Sayo, daughter of Murai Hansuke, insists that the should be selected to mee t Sugata Sansiro. Sayo detests Higaki Gennosuke .

Murai Hansuke, while conceding Higak i Gennosuke's

ability, believes tloat the latter lacks the personality and chara cter to participate in the tournanient. Instead Murai Han uke himself decides to meet ugata Sansiro, the cham pion se lected

by Sy iidokan Zyiido group.

One day while Sugata Sansiro is praying at the temple for his success in the corning contest, he meet Sayo, who comcs to pray for her father's victory. Sa yo does not know that Sugata Sansiro is to be her father's adversary. and neither does Sugata Sansiro know that Sayo i Murai Hansuke's daughter.

Murai Hansuke, mu ch older than Sugata Sa nsiro, is defeated. The strain caused by the match .oa too strenuous for him, and he finally succumbs. Unlike Osumi, anyo does not hold any personal grudge against ugata Sansiro for the death of her father. Meanwhile Higaki Ge nnosllke learns that ayo does not love him but is rather intere ted in ugata Sansiro.

Jealous and angry, Higaki Gennosuke challe nges Sugata Sansiro in the open field , which results in ugata ansiro's victory. As a result of this ~vic tory ugata Sansiro be omes a full-fledged zyiido artist as has been ex pected by his ma ter Yano Syogoro.

The picture co ncludes with the inevitable. rornanc-e be tween Sugata Sa nsiro and Sayo.
