Predict 100,000 Japanese Jews in Israel by 19 68
JERUSALEM.—Israel may have a population of 100.000 Ja
panese Jews by 1968, according to officials of the ministry of leliuious affairs here. The prediction is based on the mounting in
terest in Judaism in Japan. Israel’s chief irabbinate recently de
cided that Japanese converts to Judaism could be recognized as
bona fide Jews, to be permitted to 'enter Israel under the “law of
the return.” This law guarantees every Jew in the world automa
tic Israeli citizenship and cost-free emigration to Israel at the ex
pense of the Jewish agency. Jewish agency officials confirm that
lar^e-scale immigration to Israel of newly-converted Japanese
Jews is expected to begin early in 1959. There are now some S.000
Jews in Japan, organized into a group called “The Union of Jewish
Japanese.” Most of them are trained professionals—scientists,
technicians, fishing experts, businessmen—and are expected to re
ceive a warm welcome from the Israeli government in 1959.
Plan to Make International Park in Toronto
An international park is in the making for Toronto, it was
levealed this week. The Young Canadian Club in Toronto plans to
avpioach various ethnic groups in the city to ask for cooperation
in the realization of this park, having each group responsible for
the care of its respective section. The YCC will call a meeting of
the various racial groups in the near future to organize an Tnternational Park Planning Committee, which will set up a plan to be
proposed to the Toronto City Council. The City Parks Board is encouraging- the move, and it is hoped that the City will aid it finan\ cially.

War Cost Japan Almost Two Million Lives
TOKYO.—Deputy cabinet secretary Katsuo Tanaka told the
upper house budget committee that the war cost Japan 1,700,000
military casualties and 168,000 civilians working for the Japanese
armed forces. Loss of territory, including Formosa (and Korea,
amounted to about 48 percent of the Japanese empire. He said the
economic loss 'came to 23.3 percent of Japan’s pre-war wealth.

Nekoda of Raymond, Alta., who holds the Okesa; or Buddhist typo rosary, just
before 60 Japanese Canadians boarded a CPA plane,, for Tokyo on March 12 m
Vancouver. Rev. Ikuta is the leader of a group of Buddhists who are attending the
mid-March festival of Saint Shinran in Kyoto. The group is to tour Buddhist
shrines throughout Japan before disbanding to visit relatives. They are scheduled
to return to Canada early in April.

Struck by Car, 80-Yeai-Old Issei Dies
} How to Get the Most out of Japanese Novels { 300 More Cherry-trees
If you’re looking for a. neat
plot,
well-rounded
characters
brimming with life or a detailed
psychological
examination
of
what makes the hero tick, then
the Japanese novel is not for you.
These words of warning come
from Edward Seidensticker, the
young American Tokyo resident
who is well known in Japan and
abroad for his excellent transla
tions of contemporary Japanese
literature.
Mr. Seidensticker, whose trans
lations include “Snow Country”
by Yasunari Kawabata and Juni
chiro Tanizaki’s “Some Prefer
Nettles” and “The Miki oka Sis
ters,” made his remarks on how
to read and get the most out of
Japanese novels at a lecture be
fore the "women’s group of the
American Club in San Francisco.
But though the Japanese novel
may lack the form and contents
Western readers are accustomed
to Mr. Seidensticker suggested it
has other virtues to offer the
thoughtful reader.
Foremost among- these is the
Japanese novels “lyrical blending
of the human being and his na
tural background.” This particu
lar quality is, according to Mr.
Seidensticker, unparallelled in the
world’s literature.
This fusion of man and nature,
when successful, results in “a
moment of great beauty and
symbolism.” And in his . opinion,
this unique Japanese contribution
to literature more than make up
for the Japanese novel’s defi
ciencies in plot and character.
He regards Kawabata, author
of “Snow- Country,” as the pre
sent day master of this “fusion
of subject and object.”
The Western reader shouldn’t
expect to find “a vigorous, mas
culine line” style in Japanese
novels. Instead, he must be pre
pared to accept the general mood
of languor and melancholy that
Don't Make Sport of Goddess in Game Room
We have never heard of an Oriental -artist or decorator using
an object of Christian devotion—such 'as a crucifix, a holy picture,
a communion cup, or anything of that sort—as an object of interior
decoration. It is by no means unusual, however, for Occidental
artists to use Oriental objects of devotion for jsuch purposes, and
Orientals are beginning to (show their (resentment of it.
Last week, for instance, the New York firm of Lord and Taylor
displayed in their window what they called ‘a (sort of den’ with ‘a
game room feeling’; it contained among ether (objects a fine wooden
figure of Kwannon, the Buddhist goddess of mercy, at which some
body had apparently been shooting arrows. Protests from Japanese
in New York caused the arrows to be removed. To Buddhists, the
effect was somewhat as though somebody had used a painting of
the Virgin as a rifle target.
The world has grown smaller in the last fifty years, and one
consequence is that we must be more tactful than in the past.
—The Peterborough Examiner
pervades Japanese novels, giving
them their “distinctive misty air.”
Mr. Seidensticker accepts this
melancholy mood as the genuine
article, but he spoke less kindly
of some -writers’ prediction for
creating a mood of overwhelming
despair.
“Frankly,” he explained, “des
pair makes money in Japan, and
I think much of the ’ despair’ in
contemporary fiction is fake.”
There is also the problem of
“Japanese
ambiguity.”
While
the western reader may often
rack his brain trying to decide
just what is the meaning of a
sentence, phrase section—oi’ even
the entire book—when reading a
Japanese novel, Japanese critics
often complain that the transla
tions “make the meaning too
clear.” The problem of “Japanese
ambiguity” is a troubled one for
the poor translator, Seidensticker
admitted.
Only equalled perhaps, by the
problem of Japanese bluntness,
the Japanese may be vague about
some things, but on other sub
jects they are remarkably frank.
Another headache for the trans
lator, whose readers and editors
aren’t accustomed to having cer
tain bodily functions and certain
four-letter words, mentioned in
the casual matter-of-fact way
that the Japanese consider quite
normal.
But even with all these diffi
culties, Mr. Seidensticker was
happily able to report that sales
of translated Japanese novels in
the U.S., while not earth-shaking,
were enough to allow the pub
lishers to break even on their in
vestment.
Bound for Vancouver
Another 300 Japanese cherry
trees, a gift for the parks of
Vancouver from the Japanese
orange growers association, will
arrive next month on the freight
er the Myokei-Maru which left
Japan March 9.
The gift was requested by Mr.
M. Tanabe, Japanese Consul, to
Mr. K. Tsuyuki, one. of the mem
bers of the Mikan Mission which
visited Vancouver recently.

Mr/Tahara was

Not Race Bias When Teenager Says 'Jap'
According to Bennett Cerf in the March 2 issue of “This Week”
magazine, “Jap” now means, in teenage lingo, an unexpected tough
exam. To quote Cerf: “Next time your young hopeful tells you,
Did I get shafted on that Jap’’ you tan know he’s just achieved
an ‘F’ in a test, sprung by some ^unfeeling professor on the' very
afternoon he had been brushing up on racing dives and turns in

that has replaced “gypped”.
