Cinema propaganda for peace was urged by Professor Francis J. Onderdonk of the University of Michigan. More exciting was young Yoshiaki Fukuda, head of Japan's Konkokyo (Shinto) sect (not to be confused with the Tenrikyo sect, whose Patriarch Shozen Nakayama, also at the Parliament, talked about the sect's foundress, his great-grandmother-TIME, Aug. 28). Shintoist Fukuda flayed as "sentimental" any pacifism which ignores "hindrances"-such as Japan's need for territory. Shintoist Fukuda, like Publisher William Randolph Hearst (see p. 21) and members of last fortnight's Banff conference, admitted war between Japan...
...Mary Baker Eddy had been possessed by a God, and if the God now resided in her great-grandson, that young man might resemble a Japanese young man who last week was journeying exuberantly through the U.S. Shozen Nakayama, 28, is Patriarch of Tenrikyo, a Shinto sect claiming 5,000,000 followers throughout the world.

Patriarch Nakayama & party heartily enjoy the U.S., especially relishing strawberry ice cream, roast beef and fried chicken but regretting the lack of good boiled rice.

...Lampson called on the Japanese Charge d'Affaires in Peiping, Shoichi Xakayama, and offered himself as middleman in direct negotiations between Japan and China. He made his old suggestion of a ten-mile neutral zone just south of the Wall to be closed to troops of both sides. Nakayama was cold to the /.one idea which would tie up Japan's long-range hope of cutting out of China an independent "buffer state"' between China and Manchukuo. He asked Sir Miles where was a Chinese with sufficient authority to negotiate for China. Sir Miles named the Chinese...
...wise precaution. U. S. missionaries in the invaded territory south of Jehol kept the wires hot with reports of Japanese bombing, destruction and invasion of U. S. mission property. In Peiping Japanese Chargé d' Affaires S. Nakayama announced last week Japan's willingness to make reparations. It had already made a cash settlement for the bombing of a French Catholic Mission south of the Wall ($600, silver) and had paid rental for the occupation by Japanese troops of the U. S. Methodist Mission at Shanhaikwan ($22, gold...
