"Cultural War"
Between Japan
And U. S. Coming
Former ' Secretary to Jap
Premier Sayi Responsibility
Up
to Civilized Na
tions of Went
Honolulu, Oct. 19. A "cultural
war" between the Orient and the
Occident ii "bound to come," but all
differences between the United Statu
and Japan can be tettled amicably,
according to the beliefs expressed
today between the Press congress
of the world in session here, by M.
Aumoto, editor of the Herald of
Asia and formerly secretary to the
late Premier Ito of Japan.
"If the west persistently refuses to
listen to the voice of reason and
justice and aggravates the an
tagonism of culture by injecting race
prejudice," he said, "it is not in
conceivable that the result possibly
may be war between the races, in
comparably more calamitous than
the last great war and larger in ex
tent. Therefore the responsibility
for avoiding such a calamity rests
with the civilized nations of the
west
Cultural War.
"Flainly, the question is whether
Japan and the United States will
fight, or settle all trouble in a
friendly way as all international
problems should be settled," Mr.
Zumoto declared. He continued:
"A cultural war is bound to come,
but I hasten to tell you my firm
conviction that all trouble existing
between Japan and the United States
can and Will be settled peacefully.
I believe that in spite of occasional
complications and keen rivalry in
many fields of activity the two
countries ever will remain friendly
and at peace.
Feel Affront '
The question of cultural antago
nism cannot be settled by official
conventions.- It is a permanent
problem of history and we orientals
are ready to take a philosophic view
of the matter. We certainly will not
hesitate to call attention, sometimes
in a loud voice, to the Occident's
failures or unwillingness to meet
our just demands when such fail
ure is considered incompatible with
our honor or our vital interests.
Put we Will not be in any haste to
press the point
"This philosophical attitude is il
lustrated in Japan's handling of the
California question. Deeply as we
fed the affront California persist
ently- offers by frankly discriminat
ing legislation against our nation
als, there are but. few sane men
among us who even dream of the
possibility of war in connection with
the California problem. With re
gard to California, we are prepared
to trust to the potent power of time
to salve all difficulties.'

Prof essor Says Men
Becoming Effeminate'
Chicaffo. Oct 19. Men are becom
ing effeminate in the opinion of Prof.
Frederick Starr of the University of
Chicago, who told the men of his
class what he thought of them.
"The men of this university," he
said, "in fact, the men all over the
country are becoming ' effeminate.
During the war they found out that
women could do men's work. Now
they are sitting back and let'tag the
women do it"
He had given the class a list of
Aztec tribes to be learned. The girls
learned it but the men failed.

Wild Night at Movie
Bolshevists and Antxs
Come to Blows Over Film
On Paris Boulevard
Paris. Oct 19. Following anti'
Spanish manifestations last week in
boulevard movie houses showing the
life of a toreador, communist pic
ture fans last night broke up a show
presenting a mm entitled "Red Rus
sia."
Bolshevist sympathizers cheered
when. Trotzky'a and Lenine's pic
tures were snown, but they began
shouting "Lies!" and "Viva Soviets I"
when the film portrayed the reds
massacring prisoners.
Nonpartisan spectators bawled out
the bolshevists and demanded that
the reel be continued. Finally the two
factions came to blows and the police
interfered. A Charlie Chaplin pic
ture was substituted.
Recently a film depicting the life of
the toreador El Gallito, which was
- shown in boulevard theaters, caused
excitement nightly when Spaniards
applauded the bull fighter. The
French hissed when the horse was
gored and applauded when the bull
wiled the toreador. Angry com
ments passed among the spectators
and many fights occurred, but the
f theater continued showing the films.
