At 5:30 p.m. Keio, having five students in the car,kmade the start in front of the Imperial Palace on a dark way straight to Osaka, 550 k. meters in distance, and the rest followed at intervals of five mmutes.

Besides this "PiramidalSystem" several motor sys-tems have been found toexist by recent various stu-dies of Anatomy and theyhave been named "ExtraPiramidal System." Thestudy of ProL Hayashi atthis time is the first physi-ological study m relating to

Rational Settlement Saves Youngmen From the view-point ofthe economic and politicalsicuations of the presentworld it may be thoughtthat the world is beingdivided into three parts thedemocratic nations of capi-talism, communist nations,and the underdevelopednations of Asia, and it wouldbe too much to say that wecan't expect to bring worldpeace before us withogt the economiccompletingand political full-independ-ence of the underdevelopednations of the Far and NearEast as the third countrybuffers that Premjer Nehrustressed. In aword,itwillbe allowed that the verysettlement of the coloiialnationalism is a specific forworld peace in the fi2ture.And unfortunately the con-tinual Korean war is stillseen before us as if thisview were right. We had already someknowledge of these eco-nomic and political interestsamong the nations concern-ed, but hereupon there aremore essential things thatmust be noted with muchregret. That is, hundredsof people must be killed bywar before a rational settle-ment is rnade. In Korea,young men of our age arestill under heavy fire andbeing forced to give uptheir lives for peace, only inthename of peace. In 1951as well as in any period ofhuman histor}r, leaders ofany country may order therising generation to go towpt. as a result of the deter-m!nation of the leader's con-ference. And only theseyoung people feei keenly the

necesslty of peace, fear ofhum.an war and worthless-

ness of their precious lives on the battleground. Inmost cases, they have been

persuaded to fight for their country, justice, liberty, andpeace and the victory wasbought dearly. That is, itwas a peace that cost the

Iives of thousands of youngpeople. Young men have

been, in this sense, neces- sities for war itself. A mem-ber of the U. S. Senate, Mr. Johnson's statement is a case in point and we must regretfully say that thou- sands of young lives have been lost not onlv on the part of the United Nations but also on the part of the communlsts.

Christmas is the birthday of Jesus Christ.

Although we know the year and the place of Jesus' birth, Åqsee: e g. the gospel ofSt. Luke, 2:1-2.), we are not

sure about the date. During the first 3 centuries of chnstianity, in Palestine and Greece, the b!rth of Jesus was celebrated on Jan. 6th. together with His first reve- lation to the non-Jewish world, as described in the gospel of St. Matthew 2.1- ll. As the Romans did not celebrate birth-days at all, W'es`Lern church kept Jan 6th, only as the revelation of Christ to the non-Jewish people (Epipheny)

HRISTMAS is the bir-c thday of Jesus Christ. But why should that be celebrated throughout the whole world? '•sAren't there many famous philosophers, inventors, educators, social workers forgotten by man- kind, for wltich they gave all their time ,i nd strengthP

The researchers of Fuku-zawa and of the history ofJapan in the Mei]i Era havebeen lookmg for some un-known materials on him formany years All the scholars guessedthat the unpublished mater-ials might have been keptin the store-house belongingto his descendants, whichwas opened in 1949, and therecords of about 1,600 art-icles were brought forthinto the daylight Therecords were exhibited lastyear at Tol{yo, Osaka andNakatsu 100 in Kyushiu, theFukuzawa's birth-place,commemoratmg the fiftiethanniversary of his death. Since then the study ofFukuzawa with the newrnaterials has been in pro-gress, so that some part ofthe result was published inthe 2nd and 3rd series, 24thvol. of "Shigaku," Bulletinof the History Course,Literature Dept , Keio.
