Scrambling to his feel, Zola be. took himself to the attic when he shared with the equally improvident

young artist Paul Cezanne. All the way up the stony flights to his refuge, Zula was repenting with chuckling delight at the fantastic fitness of 11e line: "Truth is afoot-and will pre- zail!"

As he opened the creaking door, Paul held up with glee the bit of Fat-cardboard on which he had just drawn in charcoal Emile's favourite motto: "Nufia dies sine Ihnica." "Fine, Paul,

AN EMPIRE of 3,000 islands, stretching

across thirty degrees of the carth's latitude, covering an area of 274,000 square miles, in which live 90,000,000 brown and yellow skinned prople spegleing dialects, many of which even Tokyo cannot under- stand.

To this add the puppet province of Manchukuo; with 32,244,000 living in 400,000 square miles on the Soviet's back doorstep,

HISTORY,

Eighty years ago a race of rice cultivators, fishermen and feudal warriors, whose only weapons were, bows and arrows and speart. To- day Japan, applying feudalism to the factory, is the most highly industrialised nation in the world.

WEALTH.

A country rich in minerals---- gold, silver, zine, copper, lead, iron, steel and coal.

Only one thing she lacks and does not own, and that is the most precious thing in the world for Japan -oll. It comes to her from the northern half of the island of Sakhalin, whose wells ke leases by treaty from the Soviet. That treaty expires this year,

One thing Japan, country of change, cannot alter is a curae laid on her by nature-carthquakes. She plans, builds, and grows: then her cities are laid in ruins, her subjects killed by thousands, her national work disorganised by the tremors of the earth. For Japan, wherever her Empire has thrust itself, occupies the dangerous places of the world.

RELIGIÓN

Chief has absolute freedom. forns are Shintoismi-ancestor worship-with thirteen sects; Buddhism, with twelve sects; a sprinkling of all the sects of Christianity. There is no State religion and no State support.
