Nobel Prize Winner Kawabata Won't Bring Home Much Prize Money
.STOCKHOLM.—Japanese Nobel Prize winner for
literature Yasunari Kawabata said recently he might
donate some of his 350,000 kroner ($70,000) prize
money to Sweden.
. The 69-year-old author, who became the first Ja­
panese to win the world’s most prestigious literature
award, said he had not “given much thought to the
prize money yet.”
“But I would like to donate some of it to some good
cause in Sweden,” Kawabata said. “At least I will not
bring much of it home to Japan, but I will travel for
some of the money in Europe.”
Kawabata, who will receive the prize check and the
diploma at a ceremony in Stockholm, also told a news
conference he had not finished his Nobel speech yet,
.though he spent two days in isolation in Denmark
working on it.

“It is about two-thirds finished,” Kawabata told
newsman with a faint smile.
It is a tradition that the literature prize winner
speaks for himself and the other Nobel laureates—in
chemistry, physics and medicine—at the Nobel gala
dinner on the night of the prize ceremony.
On the second day of his nine-day visit to Sweden,
Kawabata spent two and a half hours , at the Museum
of Oriental Arts.
He said he was “much impressed with the collec­
tions.”
“'But I was a little disappointed to find nothing
Japanese except for textiles. The Chinese collection,
however, was outstanding,” he said.
He told the new conference that he considered his
award of great significance to all Asia and1 to all writ­
ers in the world working in a “little-known language

like Japanese.”
But he said he was sorry that the Swedish Academy
of Letters, which awarded him the prize, could read
his works only in translations.
He said he had read his books in English transla­
tions, “And I could understand the meaning of it
but I don’t have the capacity to judge whether the
English style was right.”
Kawabata, who is little known outside Japan, said
he had been reading Western literature for more than
35 years. He was most influenced by Russia’s great
novelist Theodor Dostoevski and Swedish novelist and
playwright August Strindberg, he said.
“Among modern Western writers (Francois) Mauriac and (William) Faulkner have made a great im­
pression on me, and so has Virginia Woolf,” he said.

THE

Tojo Died On. Gallows 20 Years Ago
v- TOKYO. — Those who were
there said he looked strangely
unfamiliar without his spectacles
and dentures but it did not make
much difference because a few
minutes later they hanged him
by his neck until he was dead.
,That was how Gen. Hideki To­
jo the wartime prime minister
of Japan paid for his war crimes
in the predawn darkness of the
morning of Dec. 23, 1948.
Before he was hanged Tojo
exacted a promise from his wife,
Katsuko that she would not join
him in death by committing sui­
cide.
It was a promise she kept and
so today, at the age of 78, she
lives quietly in a small apart­
ment and remembers her husband
fondly.
‘‘The Japanese people are en­
titled to peace because so many
of their soldiers died in the war,”
said Mrs. Tojo. “It is the women
who want peace. Women want a
quiet life. They want to take
care of their children.”
Mrs. Tojo said recently that
'she thinks of her husband every
day and makes daily visits to the
■family altar where his portrait
hangs.
“I wonder why people fight

I

everywhere in the world—in the
mideast, in Vietnam,” she said.
When Tojo was hanged he was
survived by his wife, three sons
and foui’ daughters.
The eldest son. a minor offi­
cial in the shipping promotion
council died in 1966. The third
son is a major in the Air-Self
Defense Force staff office. Te­
ruo, 52, the second son, is the
best known. He designed planes
and rockets during the war and
today he is designing a transport
plane for the ASFD.
The eldest daughter is married
to a corporation executive, the
second daughter is the wife of a
psychology professor, the third
made headlines several years ago
when she married an American
businessman.
“Until a few years ago friends
of my father used to gather to
mark the anniversary of his
death,” said Teruo Tojo. “But
there is no such gathering any
more,” adding that his own res­
pect for his father has never
wavered.
Mrs. Tojo still aids families
who were bereaved by the war.
“I am hot lonely at all,” she
said. “My children visit me
often.”

i oxo & Beetle Sack Up On Stage
LONDON. — The nude scene
wasn’t on the stage, it was in the
audience at Royal Albert Hall.
Up
on stage, on the other
hand, Bea tie John Lennon and his
girl friend were overdressed —
totally enclosed inside a white
linen sack. The audience loved
them anyway.
These -zany goings on took
place on both sides of the foot­
lights recently during a concert
called “An All Chemical Wed­
ding.”
The stripping began when a
small group of Indian singers
and drumbeaters began a chant
at the outset of the concert.
Soon more than 200 members
of the audience began dancing
and singing near the front of the
stage.
The chanting, singing and
dancing grew to a crescendo.
Electric guitars and a beat
group’s drums joined in.
A blonde-haired girl suddenly
stripped and sat down again,

naked.
Other members of the audi­
ence began undressing.
At least one
man stripped
completely and stood naked for
several minutes. He later got
dressed.
The audience jeered, booed and
clapped while police rushed to
the girl, who by then had placed
a coat around her shoulders.
The girl was not ordered to
get dressed. The concert resumed
with half a dozen policemen sta­
tioned just inside the main en­
trance.
Near the end of the perform­
ance, Lennon and girlfriend’, Yo­
ko Ono, walked onto the center
of the stage and unfolded a large
white sack.
They climbed into the sack and
stayed there for 25 minutes, mov­
ing around occasionally. A man
playing a flute slowly circled
them.
The audience applauded when
they reappeared.

looted a Japanese train of $55.555. Police said there were indi­

He said the problem of join­
ing the classical tradition in Ja­
panese literature with the works
of young writers is a central one
in the literary debate in his
country.
“But I don’t think that young
authors feel the tradition as a
pressure on them,” he said.
Kawabata said he was aware
of the fact that his books, as all
literary works, had a certain in
fluence on society and man. But
he said he never meant it to be
like that.
He recognized social and poll
tical involvement as one way of
making literature. “But it hap­
pens to be a way I have no
liaison with,” he said.

men in the car told police the
“traffic officer” had told them
he had reports Fujimaki’s house
had been blown up.

TOKYO. — The acreage of
paddy fields in Japan has conti­
nued to expand although the
government is racking its brains
how to discourage farmers from
expanding their rice production.
An Agriculture Forestry Min­
istry survey conducted as of
Aug. 1 this year revealed that
the nation’s acreage of paddy
fields totaled 3,435,000 hectares
or an increase of 0.6 percent from
one year ago.
Of the increased paddy fields,
64 percent were converted from
vegetable farms, 23 percent by
making paddy fields and 10 per­
cent through restoration of dis­
aster damaged fields.
The continued expansion of
paddy fields indicates ever grow:ng enthusiasm of farmers to
expand rice production which
they find very lucrative under
Lhe government’s rice control
system whereby their rice is
bought at good prices.
The government’s buying price
for rice has been raised by a
big margin, year after* year, pro­
viding a powerful incentive for
expansion of rice production.
The result: a succession of re­
cord crops of rice, year after
vear, and a bulging stock of rice
