A Novelty In Japnuetie Journaliiiu
The Kokumin Shiinhun of Tokyo, one
of the most public spirited and important
newspapers in .Japan, has recently intro
duced an interesting and novel feature
into its columns It has always taken an
intelligent and thoughtful interest in for
eign affairs, and among its other efforts to
i promote a good understanding between
I Japan and the rest, of the world has been
the establishment of a high class monthly
review and magazine, written in English
and called The Far East.
The proprietor, Mr. 1. Tokutorui, has
now “incorporated the magazine, so to
speak, in the Kokumin Shimbun,” in
which an “international department’'
has since the beginning of September been
inserted daily for the benefit of foreign
readers. This depart inent is written chief
ly in English, though articles are occa
sionally published in the other European
tongues. Perhaps the most striking fea
ture of the innovation is the insertion of
notes written in Japanese, but printed in
the Roman characters.
“This,” says the Kokumin Shimbun
“may possibly turn out to be a step to
ward the general adoption of Roman let
ters for writing our language—an innova- I
tion certainly desirable from various
points of view, but attended by very seri
ous difficulties.” The experiment will be
watched with interest by all who favor
closer intercourse between rhe far east and
the nations of the west.—London Times
