He claims to have* saved the government a billion dollars in expenditures through the system. This may be true but it looks tho big to be taken in readily.

C., headquarters of the National Georgraphic Society concerning the Japanese capital which recently has been exeperiencing more of its perennial earthquakes. “Should you sail up the Bay of Tokyo to Yokohama, and there seek to buy a railroad ticket to Tokyo, 18 miles to the north, you could sense the first distinctive flavor of Japan’ capital. Your ticket would be fo Shinagawa or Shinbashl. not Tokyo, nor yet for Yedo, the older name of the city which you probably soon would be using in dating your let ters. Villages Which Grew Togethe “Your ticket experience would be equivalent to trying to purchase a ticket for New York and having the agent hand you one for Brooklyn or Harlem. For Tokyo is not a city slowly grown from a town: it is a ccoagulation of villages, a civic pro toplasm. a aerie • of communities spread over some thirty square miles ith a population of two and a quar ter million people. Next there is the cover of the guidebook you arm yourself with to find your way about Tokyo. A rail way ticket and u guidebook cover are not negligible things to the keen perceptions of an American traveler It is of such casual entities that im pressions are made. “The guidebook you acquire is ‘An Official Guide to Eastern Asia’ which find upon turning to the inside cover is ’Prepared by the Imperial Japanese Gov’t. Railways.’ Well, you do not notice that f«t*t until you have been around Tokyo for a few days, and then the cumulative effect of the •official’ is borne in upon you. You are not politically minded.

Henry I*. Davison was one of these and his life is an inspiration to hun ilred*. who have admired his clear cut character, his financial genius and'his wisdom in the selection of his mode of living. He was essentially a man of activity and yet what he did was without ostentation and without any degree of self emulation. He grew up into me bunking busl ness and he attained one of the most hucceaaiul positions that the business had to ofTer. His was a life of genius in that he came from the bottom the top and controlled and dominated the financial actions of the men. who possessed more money than any oth er set of men within a similar organi zation. With it all, keeping busy with grave financial affairs in the latter years of his liie he turned aside in a moment's notice and devoted his time and tal ent to the organization of the Amer ican Red Cross. It’s war work will stand us an everlasting monument to his genius for organization and the I iirpoaos and principles which he put into execution. He may have been one of the world’s greatest bankers but he was also its great benefactor in his liberal donations to many chari ties and his wonderful work for the Red Cross, which might in part have contributed to the great sacrifice that he made by giving up his life in the zenith of his great financial career.

It Is true, but defin itely, Just the same. Under the head ing of ‘January’ It informs you seri ously that ‘people ure now in their very best humor, going about paying New Year rails’ and. if you are in Tokyo in January you find that the guidebook spoke truly. Gradually you begin to realize that the tradition, the precedent, the Immemorial customs ol the old Japan do project through all Its modernism, so that It is perfectly proper to predict what human nature will be like at any given period. “You read further between the lines. You note that the Imperial Pal ace, that curious ‘half-and-half* archi tectural creation of Eastern and Wes tern Ideas, 'is Jealously guarded against the entrance of ordinary per sons. And farther on that the ‘Korak- nen Carden Is perhaps the most cele brated landscape garden in Tokyo ac cessible (subject to special permis sion) to ordinary persona.’ Then one begins to realize why members of Japanese commission which visited Washington some years ago were frankly impressed most deeply by our National Capltal’a Rock Creek Park, a vast play place, unrestricted, and left as nature made it save for automobile roads and bridle paths. Neither in their own country nor In Europe, they said, had they observed any park exactly like that. ‘Only the very casual visitor will tail to sense the paradox of Tokyo.

Each car bears the number of its route and inside, at the place where, in America, one would see hosiery and washing powder adver tisements. there is a comprehensive map of the city criss-crossed and clrc led by lines of many colors corres ponding to the numbered routes. A knowledge of the language is super fluous. From the guidebook map, or better from the free map furnished by the Japan Tourist Buraeu, which seeks to make Japanese travel d 1‘gbtful, one locates the place ii seeks and the place where he stand Then It is a mere matter of matching numbers and colors to ^et to any spot within the circular railway which forms the tire of. the transpor tation wheel. This Idea-of placing a map of :he city in the cars themselves insteed of cn some sequestered wall around the station may rob the traveler of the cultural advantages of tempting pic tuTes of butter and motor cars, but it makes it easy to wander from village to village within the city limits with the minimum of delay and sign lan guage.” QFESSI W.
