History And Japan How very devious is thc tttlllht? if of historyl in the early 1'34”! "W Unlted States had good reason for fearing the armed might of Japan, which before it was smashed had brought destruction to many thou- sands of young Americans and T maimini: to many thousands more. i A When the war ended in Japan's un- eonditional surrender. the Americans vowed that never again would Japan be pcrmittcd to build an al'fYi.V- 5 nay y or an air force. This stipulation was written into the new Japanese constitution: and. strangely enough, tt was nvvcptcd by the Japanese poople to such an extent that ally thought of I military Pflmf'b3t'k. own in I small way. was cast aside. Hnnceforth. the once warlike .lapan would he ii'l'ev0('ably devoted to PPRPI. ' With the passitig of the year! l and the coming of I new and form- : ldahle danger in the Pacific. the llnited States took I new look at the new order in Japan and found it disquieting. Thereupon it was de- cldcd in Washington that Japan must once again become strong. able to defend herself from Soviet az- gresslon and to contribute her share to the sccllrity of the free world. At first. tlic .lapaiicsc were cool to this sllggcslinil and. logically. questioned its need. But Washllimoti persisted: Ind lifter much discussion and be- wildering appraisal of the change in American thinking, they decided to embark on a limited form of warm- Iment--for defensive purposes only. Today, that "limited form" concept .l in most unwelcome in Washington, l Ind the call has gone out to Japan for more speed in building up the IinewI of war. And, to impress upon Tokyo the importance of this Ipeedy reltrming process, Washington has let it be known that unless more Onergy ill plit into the program. the United States might find it Idvlsahle to divert economic aid from Japan to other allies more willing and eager to support the common caiuse. Yet. there in uneaslneu. too, in Washington. What if I rearmed Japan should draw closer to the Soviet llnion in trade and culture which often have I strong bearing on military associations? it is all wry confusing to the Japanese who arc saying in the Americans. in effect: "F'irst, you lie- mmdcd that in do away with all our arms.

Any- ivay. arrordiniz tn the St. John's Daily News, it is embarkin: rm I plan of its own to give protection to all childrcn up to 16 years of age. This was one of Premier Smallwood's prnniiscs in last fall's clection cam- paign; and the first step in its imple- mentation is now being undertaken. This will take the form of free Ic- commodation, medicines and dress- ings while the patient is in hospital and free diagnostic services for all who need them whether in hospital or at home. The accommodations will be based on ward services. Par- ents who desire private or seml-pri- vale facilities for their children will be able to prncurc tlicm by paying the difference. All bills will be paid by the Government. and it is hoped that later on the plan can be extend- ed to give complete medical cover- age.

The arrangement already made is certainly H lzood beginning and re- flects the Government's genuine in- terest in public health. As far as we knoll. Ncufoilndland is the first Province in institutc a plan of this ltlttfl free of cost to the hcneficlarips.

THE MODERN ART EXHIBITION

Sir,-Alice's report of the Art Exhibition in the Civic Ccnlrc inl- pcllcd me in sec Ii for myself and my reaction to it was rsuttlcivliai different from that of Alice.

The first painting tn the left. in "This Wonderland" is that of A little girl. She has not I pretty face. She looks all ”mad as a wet l hen". She is not going to be push- i ed about. She has a mind of ltcr own. She appealed to me in spite of tier biirnl looking arms.

Beyond this picture is ihII of A forceful landscape. It shows blown tree: Ind distance and a wind- awept. sky. it is not pretty either bill it tells of a world where pow- erful unscen forces are at work-

The ll'l0W scene with the black shack; which drove Alice to melan- choly did the opposite to me. lt'I t striking simplicity expresses In eternal hush where l could take lime to commune with my will -- away from the bustle of city life. It. brought me back to tho dIyii when I rode I pony over the prairies Ind heard not I sound. save that of the bowling of the co- yotes. It in Canada in In different. mood from the tree picture and I found it bracing

As for the Ibstractions -- i even liked muny of them, though not Ill. The colors and shapes liar- moniousiy grouped invite repose or action as the artist wishes it was quite. thrilling to me.

What is wrong with enjoying pure design? Why must we always have I

There are some things which can not be ex- pressed adequately through the medium of wonds.

Your mind can become tired just all your body can. if you think too much and too hard you might develop nervous fatigue. But I don't imagine many of us are troubled with that.

PHYSICAL TIREDNESS

You can usually tell when you are becoming fatigued even be- fore you are actually aware of your physical tircdncss. You will

become bored with what you're doing and you'll probably be in Itientivc. Naturally. this will de- crease your ability to perform whatever it is you have to do.

What can you do to keep from becoming fatigued? Dr Bills has some suggestions:

If you are I sludcnl. you can do your studying in quiet surround- ings. You should have good light Ind all your equipment right at hand. These Ire pretty good sun- gcstions no matter what you linvc
