PREFACE
Careful readers of the 1963 Yearbook will discover that
it is the most complete in the history of its publication;
that is, it presents a wider and more detailed picture and
report of Christian work in Japan than any previous pu
blication. For this complete coverage, we thank every
individual author, translator Mr. Shozo Hochi, Mr. Koichiro
Sugiyama, and particularly Mr. Shotaro Miyoshi. Mr.
Miyoshi was instrumental in contacting and encouraging
many able people to prepare these reports. " We are
thankful for the work of Mrs. Helen Elaine Jo, Mrs. Talbot,
and Mrs. Korver who did the directory last year, and who
helped make possible the voluminous directories in this
volume."
We think that this edition will be of significant value for
those who wish to see Christianity against the thought
world and economic or political activity of Japan as a
nation. If some of the articles seem difficult, it is not
because of the writers but because the highly organized
society of Japan grows increasingly complex. Yet if one
reads these carefully, he may find himself forced to re
construct his ideas about many parts of Japanese life and
especially of Christian work in Japan. If we succeed in
making you think creatively all the labor of this edition
will be well-rewarded.
With thanks and best wishes to all who helped prepare
this edition :
Chuzo Yamada

CHAPTER 1
POLITICS IN JAPAN
Nobushige Ukai
Politics and government in any country cannot be
discussed without considering the relationships between
domestic politics and international politics. This has been
especially true in the case of post-war Japan. Domestic
politics seldom works by itself ; rather, it functions as a
part of the international political system, and as a response
to changing world situations. Our world through 1962 to
1963 has experienced several significant incidents which
might threaten the existing world order. The crises in
Laos and in Cuba strained the relations between the United
States and the communist countries. Conflicts concerning
the borderline between India and Red China pushed India
out of her traditional neutralism. Not only between the
two camps, but also within each camp serious problems
have arisen, such as the growing antagonism between
Soviet Russia and Red China, and the struggles among
Western European countries concerning E. E. C. The whole
world seems to be rapidly moving, and trying to adapt
itself to the changing situations, although the result cannot
be regarded as successful.
Politics in Japan through 1962 to 1963 should be under
stood in this context. When we turn to Japan, however,
we may get the impression that this period seems rather
unusual in the sense that the impacts on Japan from outside
have been relatively small compared with former periods.
Or, at last, it can be said that the significance of inter-
GENERAL
national politics has not been recognized by the Japanese
in general, as vital to themselves. It may be partly
because Japan had experienced unprecedented political
upheavals in 1960 which were closely related to the position
of Japan in the international political system. This does
not mean, of course, that Japan has been isolated from the
contemporary world. On the contrary, the influence on
Japan from outside has been even greater. Toward the
end of 1961, for example, the balance of international
payment had become worse, and this resulted in an economic
recession. This also disclosed the so-called " dual structure "
of Japanese economy in many aspects. Nevertheless, it
may be fair to say that for many Japanese the living
standard is still going up, and they are enjoying consump
tion of goods. In other words, peace seems to reign over
Japan in spite of the serious world situation. As long as
democracy is regarded as govenment by the people, I would
argue, the popular reactions to politics should not be
underestimated. It is necessary, therefore, to inquire into
this paradoxical phenomenon in Japanese politics during
this period.
Japan and Asia: When the Ikeda Cabinet started after
the political confusion in 1960, the new Prime Minister
said that the next task for Japan was to improve the
relationship of Japan with Red China. Behind this state
ment, the pressures from the industrial and commercial
circles are observed. The traditional policy of the Liberal
Democratic Party toward Red China has been concerned
only with economics, by separating politics and economics.
This policy seeks to increase trade with Red china without
discussing political problems, such as the recognition of Red
China at the United Nations, or the American military
bases in Japan. Concerning this orientation of the policy,
there has been nothing new under the Ikeda Cabinet. But
Prime Minister Ikeda has been trying to promote this policy
POLITICS IN JAPAN 3
more positively than did the former Prime Ministers. On
may 24, 1962, Mr. Ikeda said at a press conference that
Japan should promote Sino-Japanese trade independently.
This may be understood that, as far as economics and trade
are concerned, Japan would not be restricted by other
countries, especially by the United States.
For the realization of this policy, there have been, and
are, many serious fobstacles. First of all, the Communist
Government in China has not agreed with Japan in separat
ing economics from politics. The claims of Red China
have been based on the " three principles " of 1958, which
are concerned with the political issues. With these
principles, Red China has asked Japan not only to increase
the economic and cultural exchanges between the two
nations, but also to abandon the Japan-U.S. Security Pact
and to evacuate the American armed forces in Japan.
During this period, Mr. Matsumura and Mr. Takasaki, both
Liberal Democrats, visited China to promote more trade
with Red China, but the crucial issues seem not to have
been solved. For the Liberal Democrats, the difficulties
come not only from the separation of politics and economics,
but also from the pressure of the United States. The
United States does not like the increase of trade between
Japan and Red China. For example, Assistant Secretary
of State Harriman said on September 26, 1962 that the
United States was hoping that Japan would take a cautious
attitude in promoting trade with Red China, because there
would be a real danger that the trade might be used for
political purposes. Again President Kennedy said at the
luncheon with Japanese ministers in Washington D. C.,
December 3, 1962, that the greatest problem for the United
States and Japan alike was how to contain the growing
influence of communism in Asia, and how to prevent
communist rule in Asia. President Kennedy asked Japan
to be a partner for this" purpose.
4 GENERAL
The United States might think that these statements
were only proposals which Japan is free to accept or not :
in other words, there never was intervention in the domestic
affairs of Japan. It is clear, however, that the behavior of
Japan, especially that of the conservatives, is restricted and
influenced to a great extent by the American attitudes
mentioned above. The foreign policy toward China of the
Ikeda Cabinet now seems to be in a stalemate, the outlet
from which has not been found.
There have also been difficulties concerning Red China
on the side of the Socialist Party. Having no possibility to
organize the cabinet in the foreseeable future, the Socialist
Party has acted as if it were a kind of pressure group.
Moreover, the Socialists have not overcome the frictions
between the left and right groups. The policy of neutralism
has been tested by the Chinese problems. We may recall
the late Mr. Asanuma's statement in Peking in 1960, that
American Imperialism was the common enemy of the
Japanese people and the Chinese people. In January of
1962, the Socialist delegates, headed by the former Chair
man, Mr. Suzuki, visited Red China, and affirmed Mr.
Asanuma's statement. As with Mr. Asanuma's case, this
kind of behavior by the Socialists created a sensation inside
and outside Japan. Most important is the fact that the
Socialist Party as a whole could not insist on this direction
of foreign policy, because it is very difficult to make a
compromise between this doctrine and the policy of
neutralism which the Socialists have earnestly advocated.
Many Socialists also recognize that too much orientation
toward Red China is unpopular among the people.
The relationship with Red China is becoming ever more
crucial. The growth of Red China, economically and
politically, cannot be denied. In the near future, Red China
itself will come to have nuclear weapons. The differences
of opinions between Red China and Soviet Russia put
POLITICS IN JAPAN 5
impact not only on the communist bloc, but also on the
liberal bloc, and seem not to have been settled. To these
problems what answer should the Japanese have ? To our
regret, Japanese political leaders, including the Socialists of
course, are just watching what is going on, and do not
know what policy should be advocated for them.
The negotiations with South Korea, concerning her
demand of the properties which Korea claims to have lost
during the colonial rule of Japan since 1909, have become
one of the greatest issues in the making of foreign policy.
Japan has recognized the legitimacy of the claim by Korea,
and to settle this issue has been regarded as the first step
to normalize the relationship between Korea and Japan.
Meetings between the two countries concerning this problem
have been held ten years but it has not yet been settled.
The military government, which was established after the
coup d'etat in 1961 recognized the importance of normal
ization in the Korea-Japan relationship for the economic
reconstruction of South Korea. And Korea's attittude
toward Japan had become more flexible than that in the
former period. On the side of Japan, among the conservative
political leaders, there was a feeling that the time was ripe
for the solution of this problem. Foreign Minister Ohira
was enthusiastic about it. Thus, the preparatory meeting
of two countries was held in August, 1962. Since then,
the important political figures have come and gone, and
messages and opinions have been exchanged.
For the Japanese people, there are many crucial problems
which are to be made clear before the settlement. The
first one is the problem of two Koreas. The Ikeda Cabinet
has dealt only with South Korea, and does not speak at
all about the same problem in North Korea. The second
one is the nature of the military government in South
Korea, which may be regarded as a interim government
for the next established democratic form of government.
6 GENERAL
What is the reason for the Ikeda Cabinet hurrying in the
settlement with such a temporary government ? The third
one is the tremendous proposed increase of payment to
South Korea without adequate reason. These doubts are
expressed through the discussions in the diet, to which,
however, the Cabinet could not give convincing answers.
In spite of the enthusiasm of the Ikeda Cabinet, the
extremely unstable political situation in South Korea has
made it impossible to. continue the negotiations further on
this subject. The nature of this issue is not only concerned
with South Korea. Behind the encouragement of this policy,
there is observed a strong desire to organize an anti-
communism bloc in Asia among South Korea, Taiwan and
Japan. This corresponds precisely to the nature of the
Japan-U. S. Security Pact. Although it may be invisible,
we can recognize the pressure from the United States
on both Korea and Japan concerning this problem. Some
people have a suspicion that this forthcoming " Northern
Asian Treaty Organization" may prove to be an incentive
to the destruction of Asia by Asian peoples themselves.
No one denies that Japan should restore what she had
taken from Korea, and help the people in Korea in the
reconstruction of their countries. What should be done
with the people in North Korea who also suffer under the
colonial rule of Japan ? Should property be returned to
the Korean people and not to the particular political leaders?
These are really difficult and complicated problems.
Japan and the Atom: It is not necessary to mention
the significance of the anti A and H bombs movements in
post war Japan. These movements originated in a citizens'
small association which asked all Japanese to sign a petition
against the use and test of the nuclear weapons, and has
grown to nation wide movements. In other countries, today,
this kind of association has been organized, and the anti-
nuclear weapon movement is becoming universal In this
POLITICS IN JAPAN 7
movement, the position of Japan, which is the only country
attacked by atomic bombs, is easily recognized. Therefore,
the movement in Japan is not only concerned with Japanese,
but with all peace-loving peoples all over the world.
As long as the United States had the monopoly of the
nuclear weapons, there was no problem as to whom they
should be against. However, since Soviet Russia also came
to have the nuclear weapons, the problem " to whom " has
become confused. Gensuikyo (Japan Council for anti-nuclear
Bomb Movement), the most influencial and central associ
ation of this kind, has suffered from frictions within the
organization. The friction had become even more serious
around 1959. There are two factors in Gensuikyo: One
is the Communist sympathizers and the other is the
Socialist sympathizers. The Communists define the Soviet
Union as peace-oriented, and the United States as war-
oriented. The issue, thus, has become whether the
opposition will be against America's testing of nuclear
weapons or will include both the United States and Soviet
Russia. At the executive organ meeting in March, 1962,
the basic principle was adopted that they would oppose
any country, or any blocs who armed themselves with
nuclear weapons. The national convention of Gensuikyo
was held beginning on August 1, 1962. But on August 5,
the Soviet Union resumed the testing of nuclear weapons.
Socialists and others claimed that the protest against the
Soviet Union should be made in the name of the national
convention of Gensuikyo. The Communists were strongly
opposed to this proposal. The national convention came to
end in confusion. The antagonism between the two elements
in Gensuikyo has become even more severe. Gensuikyo
planned to hold a national meeting in Yaizu on March 1,
1963, in memory of " Fukuryu-Maru the 5th", a fishing
boat whose crew was injured by the nuclear testing of the
United States in Bikini. On the eve of the national meeting,
8 GENERAL
the executive committee was deadlocked because of the
difference in the opinions as to whether to include Soviet
Russia or not. All executives resigned their posts, and the
anti-nuclear movement in Japan came to standstill.
The anti-nuclear weapon movement, considering its origin
and nature, should have been humanistic and non-partisan.
It ought to have been, in other words, above politics.
However, it is not seldom in the world of politics that such
an a-political symbol becomes the most politically influential
one. As such, it is quite reasonable for the political parties,
who want to mobilize every possible force for their own
political purposes, would try to make use of the anti-A
and H bombs movement. The second Gensuikyo was born
in 1961 under the leadership of the Democratic Socialists,
which try to be more humanistic and non-partisan in the
movement. Regardless of the differences in ideologies, the
opposition to nuclear armament is a sacred symbol which
no one can deny. Under these conditions, if one wants to
be neutral and humanistic in the movement, he must be
defended doubly ; that is, against partisan anti-nuclear
movement, and also against political neutralism. The
tragedy of the anti-nuclear weapon movement comes partly
from the ignorance in this point, namely what the term
neutralism means in the world of politics.
The Route of the " Structural Reform " of the Socialist
Party : Since about 1960, the idea of the structural reform
gradually arose in the Socialist Party. Today the Japanese
party system looks like a two-party system. But for the
Socialist there is, and will be, no prospect to become " ins "
in the near future. Most Japanese, including the Socialists
themselves, take this for granted. For this reason, the
Japanese party system Is sometimes called a 1.5 party
system. Though the idea of structural reform has been
understood in many different ways, it is clear that its aim
is to break the stalemate of 1.5 party system. The idea
POLITICS IN JAPAN 9
of the structural reform has been incorporated in the
program of the Socialist Party, and most of the executives
of the Socialist Party are those who are on the side of
structural reform.
On July 27, 1962, Mr. Eda, the secretary general of the
Party and one of the adovocate of the structural reform,
said, " The purpose of socialism is to develop human
possibility to the greatest extent, I believe. The main
achievements of human beings are the high living standard
in the United States, complete social security in the Soviet
Russia, British parliamentarianism, and the peace Consti
tution of Japan. By taking and adjusting these achieve
ments, a system of socialism loosely related with the people
will be created." This has been called the " vision of new
socialism " or simply the " Eda vision ". This vision has
been attacked and criticized by left wing Socialists, asking
whether the Eda vision shows the true way to socialism.
At the Socialist National Convention in December, 1962,
the Eda vision was rejected. Mr. Eda thought that this
was an expression of non-confidence in him, and resigned
his post as the secretary general. After this, a curious
thing happened. Mr. Narita. who is also among the
advocates of structural reform, was elected as secretary
general, and Mr. Eda became the head of the Organization
Bureau of the Party. What the Socialist Convention did
was strange, and hard to understand. Here we find,
however, one of the weak points of the Socialist Party.
The discussions within the Socialist Party, the Socialists
themselves have said, should be restricted to the level of
theory and program, unlike the factional struggles of the
conservative parties. But the programs have not necessarily
been discussed in this way ; rather the discussions have
sometimes been used as means for office-getting. This
will reduce the significance of disscussion as such. The
criticism of the Eda vision was an example of this kind.
10
GENERAL
Through the discussions at the Socialist Connection, the
public could not understand why the Eda vision was rejected
why the idea of the structural reform was supported, and
what differences there are between the structural reform
and the old type revisionism or reformism.
Two Elections: In this period with which this report is
dealing, Japan had two elections ; one was the election of
the House of Councilors, and the other was the elections
of local governments. It is impossible, needless to say, to
discuss these two elections on the same terms, because the
nature and the purpose of each election is different. We
moy point out, however, some of the trends which are
common in these two elections. Generally speaking, at
least as far as two major political parties are concerned,
the results should the maintenance of the status quo in the
Japanese government. The outcome of the election for the
Councilors was as follows :

Independents
The increase of the number of the Liberal Democratic
Party would seem to indicate that the Liberal Democratic
Party won, but this increase offset the decrease of the
independents who had, in fact, been the conservatives. The
popular vote for the Liberal Democrats was less by 5%
than that at the previous election in 1959. As to the local
elections, it is not easy to say which party won. Some
IN JAPAN ii
may argue that the local governments should be independent
from the political groups on the national level. Nevertheless*
we can say that the fact that 100% of the incumbent
governors who ran in the campaign were elected is an
index of the maintenance of the status quo, although there
may be other reasons for it.
As we have abserved, there are many crucial issues in
Japanese politics, and the election should function as a
means of choice of alternatives by the people. To our
regret, however, the elections in Japan, both national and
local, hardly function in this way. In the voting, there
are several orientations, to party, to candidate, or to policy.
The policy orientation has been the weakest in Japanese
voting behavior. The corruptions of the local elections in
1963 occurred partly because of the lack of policy orient
ation on the side of voters. It is not an easy task to have
rational choice about political issues in the contemporary
society, but what will happen if we give up rational choice
entirely.
While the two major political parties stand still, Soka-
gakkai has develoved rapidly through the two elections.
All Sokagakkai candidates were elected as Councilars in
1962, and more than 99% of Sokagakkai candidates
succeeded at the local elections in 1963. In January of
1962, Sokagakkai separated its political branch from the
religions organization, and created a political association
called Komei-seiji-renmei. Its basic policies include : oppo
sition to nuclear weapons, defence of the Constitution of
Japan, cleaner government, and the maintenance of autono
my of the House of Councilors. From these policies, we
may get an impression that Komeiseiji-renmei is closer to
the progressives than to the conservatives. But its orient
ation has not yet become clear. For example, at the
gubernatorial election in Tokyo, Komeiseiji-renmei gave
support to Mr. Azuma, a conservative candidate.
12 GENERAL
It is commonly believed that the social basis of Sokagakkai
is the lower class people, although this has not been analyzed
statistically. But we may estimate this from what a leader
of Sokagakkai one said: "We are working among the
people whom the Socialists or the Communists ought to
have taken care of." Sokagakkai using tier of religion has
organized those who had been left unorganized. Now
Sokagakkai has fifteen members in the House of the
Councilors, enough to have a decisive vote in determining
important policies. This will impose a responsibility on
Sokagakkai. But Sokagakkai presents an important problem
to us. Unlike most Western countries, modern Japan has
been very tolerant in religious matters, except in the case
of Shinto, before 1945. Religious tolerance, separation of
religion from politics, and freedom of religion are the
essentials of modern democracy. And religion cannot be
politicized while remaining a religion. But the proposals
from the religious point of view should be positively
evaluated. Many Christians have taken part in politics in
this way. On April 30, 1962, The Christian Association
for Defending the Constitution was organized. It has been
well known that not a few Christians took part in the
popular movement in 1960. The problem presented to us
is what attitude should we take foward Sokagakkai, which
is proposing the defence of the Constitution but at the
same time opposes the peaceful co-existence of religions.
In contemporary Japan, the question : " What do you
mean by politics ? " is becoming serious. In the developing
countries or at the time of tension, the purposes or the
tasks of politics and government could easily be found,
because the problems to be solved are clear for all. Japan,
located in the between two camps and having many
problems to be solved, seems not to have found what to
do. Some may point out political corruption, insufficient
social security, lack of independence by attaching itself to
POLITICS IN JAPAN 13
the United States too closely, or the failure of economic
policies. But the problem is to what extent these issues
are felt to be vital for the Japanese. Mr. Dore, a British
social scientist, is right in saying : " Less and less Japanese
make sardonic smiles when they hear of the ' Great country,
Japan' ; and more Englishmen make sardonic smiles when
they hear of the ' Great country Britain '." It is true to
say that Japanese are at the same time satisfied and
unsatisfied.
Lack of the leadership by the political parties, especially
the progressive parties, is making the situation much worse.
Thus an amorphous unsatisfaction is erupting at many
points in the Japanese social system. The Japanese are
moving between an illusory prosperity and anxiety. The
rise of Sokagakkai might be partly due to the situation
mentioned above. What is needed for contemporary Japan
is the establishment of hope in the future and belief on
the level of individuals. This should be clearly distinguished
from the ideological indoctrination from above, however
democratic it may seem. Not the unification of ideas, but
the diverse vivid individual activities for each individual's
own ideal are required. We may recall the fact that in
the development of modern Japan, Christians have con
tributed a great deal to Japanese society in this respect.
CHAPTER 2
AN ANALYSIS OF THE JAPANESE ECONOMY
Kazuhiko Sumiya
FOREWORD
The Japanese economy has made tremendous strides with
an astonishingly high growth rate not only in the process
of recovery during the immediate postwar years but in the
period after the completion of its recovery. The rate of
its growth is extraordinarily high as compared with prewar
years as well as with international standards. Capitalism
in postwar Japan paved the way for full-fledged accumu
lation of capital when the prevailing inflation was brought
to a close by the execution of the so-called Dodge Line.
It then extensively renewed the fixed capital of heavy
industries with earned profit during the Korean War and
with financial support by the Government, and completed
its postwar recovery (the revised ursprungliche Akkumu-
latiori) around the period from 1953 to 1955.
On the basis of the induction and transplantation of new
foreign techniques, industrial production in Japan increased
rapidly. The nation's economy also entered a new phase
of rapid growth. This process was also promoted by a
huge amount of credit backed by the Bank of Japan. This
process of high economic growth has been a period of
powerful accumulation of capital, intensifying the inequality
of distribution of national income as well as of added value
production at enterprises, on one hand, and piling up factors
for both excessive competition and over-production, on the
other. Thus the nation's economy is now confronted with
a new problem of how to concentrate productive capital
most effectively.
AN ANALYSIS OF THE JAPANESE ECONOMY 15
In this article, the author is going to outline various
contradictions and problems involved in such rapid growth
of the Japanese conomy.
1. Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries — Basic for " High
Growth "
Watching trends by production indexes in agriculture,
forestry and fisheries in the postwar years, we can easily
point out several characteristics. First, it can be pointed
out that production in agriculture, forestry and fisheries is
lagging far behind that in the mining and manufacturing
industry. While the former increased only by 152.9 per
cent in the period from 1950 to 1962, the latter increased
by 518.7 per cent, thus intensifying an imbalanced develop
ment between both categories of industries. Second, there
is an extreme inequality in production according to items
and kinds of fields in every division of agriculture, forestry
and fisheries. In agriculture, while cultivated items and
sericulture were stagnant, live-stock items showed an
increase. Among cultivated items, in contrast with a
decline in grains and barley, fruit production doubled. In
forestry also, while bamboo and timber slightly increased,
firewood and charcoal and other forest by-products have
been on the decline since 1955. In fisheries, against remar
kable increase in deep-ocean fishery (about 6.2 times),
whaling (about 4 times), shallow-sea culture (3.8 times)
and fresh water culture (3.6 times) , production of ordinary
sea fishery and fresh water fishery showed only a slight
increase, 1.5 times and 1.9 times, respectively.
What does this imbalanced development of production
mean ? So far as agriculture is concerned, this means that
while there are farming families which become wealthy in
relation to the gradual changes of the national consumption
structure under the rapidly growing economy, in other
words, with the selective expansion of the economy as a
16 GENERAL
stepping-stone, there are also farming families which tend to
leave the agricultural industry. In forestry, we can witness
an increase in production of timber because of price rise
due to the expansion of construction investment and corners
of material wood and pulpwood by paper and pulp capitals,
on the one hand, and a decline in firewood and charcoal
production due to the changes of the national consumption
structure, on the other. Corresponding to these phenomena,
more and more conspicuous is the differentiation of classes
between speculative owners of large forests, namely, lumber
ers, and petty manufacturers of firewood and charcoal. In
fisheries, while there are large-size monopolistic enterprises
which are diversifying their businesses on the basis of
whaling and deep-sea fishery, many fishers of petty size
are engaged in coastal fishing.
Although the number of Japanese farm households
reached its highest record of 6,180,000 in 1950, it has been
on the decline since then. Particularly phenomenal is the
recent decline. According to a survey made by the Ministry
of Agriculture and Forestry, during the period from Febru
ary 1960 to December 1961 a decrease in farm households
recorded perhaps as many as 160,000. The fact that the
decrease of farm households began from 1950 is an indi
cation that capitalism in postwar Japan had paved the way
for full-fledged accumulation of capital by that time and
has been steadily assuming an upward curve despite some
intermittent standstills owing to the cyclic moves of
business. The rapid expansion of the mining and manu
facturing industry has also prompted the decrease of farm
households by decomposing the deepest part of the Japanese
agricultural structure. This decomposing process can be
traced back to the four successive periods of transition in
Japanese agriculture.
The first period (1941-1947) had a tremendous significance
on Japanese agriculture. Due to the postwar farmland
AN ANALYSIS OF THE JAPANESE ECONOMY 17
reform for creating many small farms, which was the
starting point of the development of postwar Japanese
agriculture, and the prevailing inflation and food shortage
continuing from the war time, farm households showed a
remarkable increase. These factors, however, decreased
large-sized farm households with a farm of more than a
cho (2.45 acres) and suddenly increased petty farm house
holds with a farm of less than a cho, particularly those
with a farm of less than 5 tin (half of a cho) . But during
the second period from 1950 to 1955, petty farm households
with a farm of less than 5 tan decreased and farm house
holds with a farm of more than 5 tan, especially those
with a farm of more than a cho increased. During the
third period from 1955 to 1960, with a cho as the bordering
line, farm households with a farm of less than a cho
decreased, while those with a farm of more than a cho
increased. During the fourth period from 1960 to 1962,
the diverging point rose from a cho to 1.5 cho. This fact
means that specialized farm households with a farm of
more than 1.5 cho started to draw an upward curve, while
farm households of medium standing tended to run a side
business or to leave farming. The fact also indicates that
a domestic market is being created just for the sake of the
development of capitalism. We can grasp the whole picture
more clearly by analyzing the mining and manufacturing
industry.
2. The Mining and Manufacturing Industry — Axis of
Economic High Growth
Mining and industrial production from 1958 to the present,
with a temporary decline during the recession around 1957
to 1958, has risen briskly. Now, despite the " business
adjustment period" which has continued since 1961, mining
and industrial production is generally increasing.
According to " The Mining and Manufacturing Production
18 GENERAL
Index" issued by the Ministry of International Trade and
Industry, we can find that among the three major industrial
divisions including public utilities, mining and manufacturing
industry, the lead in expanding production has been
taken by the manufacturing industry. Public utilities, such
as the power and gas industries, as a pillar supporting
industrial expansion, have steadily increased their production
in concert with manufacturing industries. The mining
industry, however, is at a standstill, particularly in the
fields of coal and non-ferrous metals, and many mining
enterprises are in the midst of readjustment under the
pressure of the so-called "energy revolution" and the
liberalization of exchange and trade. In terms of the rates
of production increase by main products for fiscal 1961-62
as compared with 1955, commodities that showed remar
kable increase include (1) those whose production became
really earnest in 1955 such as electric refrigerators, TV
sets, synthetic fibers, and vinyl acetate. (2) other durable
consumer goods such as passenger cars, radios, and pianos.
(3) basic machinery such as electric motors, and bearings.
(4) transport machinery such as trucks, motor-driven
cultivators, and conveyers.
Against these products, those whose production was
sluggish or even decreased include (1) coal, (2) fertilizer
such as ammonium sulphate, and calcium cyanamide, (3)
basic chemical materials such as sulphuric acid and caustic
soda, (4) natural and chemical fibers such as silk, cotton,
and artificial fiber, (5) conventional foodstuffs such as bean
paste, soy sauce, and sake, (6) miscellaneous goods such as
matches, soap, fountain pens, and rubber-soled tabi. In
dustries which were temporarily brisk during the recovering
process of Japanese capitalism in the immediate postwar
years such as coal, ammonium sulphate, cotton spinning,
and chemical fiber, yielded up their predominant position
to such industries as petroleum refining, ^petrochemicals,
AN ANALYSIS OF THE JAPANESE ECONOMY 19
and synthetic fiber. In the foodstuff industry, chemical
seasonings, and canned foods became prevalent. In fertilizer
production, ammonium sulphate and calcium cyanamide,
were stagnant, while urea increased. In transport machinery
production, an increase was witnessed in passenger cars
and steel vessels, while locomotives decreased. At the
bottom of such harsh competition between these industrial
divisions runs through a sharp conflict between the con
ventional large-scale monopolistic capital and the newly
rising capital, thus forming a rhythmic motion of the
Japanese economy toward its modernization.
The dissolving action, that has been brought about by
the nation's high economic growth, toward the conventional
economic and social structures has now become predominant
also in these industrial fields.
In Japan number of factories with less than 100 workers
accounted for 97 per cent of the total in 1960 and under
neath them there were as many as 250,000 small factories
with less than 3 workers. Besides, though smaller factories
with 4 to 29 workers have increased in number, their
relative importance has constantly decreased. In contrast
with these smaller factories, " middle-sized " factories with
more than 30 workers have increased in both number and
relative importance. Corresponding to the fact that in the
agricultural industry, farming households of medium stand
ing with a farm of one to 1.5 cho are most vulnerable to
dissolution, a group of factories also of medium standing
with 4 to 29 workers is suffering dissolution resulting from
changes in industrial structures.
Changes in industrial structures (setup of social division
of labor) correspond to changes in the structure of labor
force. A recent phenomenal tendency in employment is a
concentration of workers on large enterprises, while in
smaller and petty enterprises employment is either stagnant
or declining. According to " The Statistic Survey of
20 GENERAL
Enterprises" for the period from 1957 to 1960 issued by
the Statistics Bureau of the Prime Minister's Office, the
total number of employees in Japan increased by 1,140,000
from 22,010,000 to 23,150,000. In the number of employees,
those with less than 4 employees showed a decrease, those
with less than 29 employees registered a slight increase,
those with 30 to 99 employees showed a total increase of
more than 280,000, those with 100 to 499 employees recorded
an aggregate increase of less than 420,000, and those with
more than 500 employees suddenly increased by a total of
more than 460,000. In the average proportion of employees,
every enterprise has four workers against one staff-member,
showing an increase in the number of staff-members. The
quality of labor force also improved. As many as 67 per
cent of all workers were high school graduates in fiscal
1961. According to " The Monthly Labor Statistics Survey "
issued by the Ministry of Labor, a worker's total cash
wage in 1961 amounted to ¥26,626 on the average of all
industries and his regular wage was ¥21,080. These figures
are usually regarded as the Japanese wage level, but the
real wage level is lower than these. Because, according to
the Labor Ministry's "Comprehensive Survey of Wage
Situation" issued in April 1961, 28 per cent of all workers
in manufacturing industries get less than ¥10,000 monthly,
and 65 per cent receive a monthly wage of less than
¥20,000. This shows just how thick the stratum of low-
wage workers is ! Wage levels are high in large enterprises,
and in smaller enterprises they reach only 70 to 80 per
cent of those in large enterprises. In small and petty
enterprises, wage levels are only 60 to 70 per cent of those
in large enterprises. Such a gap of wages between large
and smaller enterprises is gradually contracting, but it is
still a far cry to the complete dissolution of the gap.
Wage difference by education becomes wider from the
latter part of twenties. The average length of employee's
AN ANALYSIS OF THE JAPANESE ECONOMY 21
service is longer in large enterprises than in smaller enter
prises. Wages also correspondingly either increase or
decrease. This shows that the longevity wage increase
system is well established in large enterprises.
Such a particular form of wage system in Japan is closely
connected with the fact that the social security system is
still very inadequate. Workers cannot help but make an
effort in saving money to provide for an emergency, such
as labor accidents. On the part of enterprises, efforts are
made to attract a labor force by completing welfare
facilities for laborers. Such a wage-labor structure in Japan,
along with capital's dependence on external funds, corre
sponds to Japan's particular financial structure, which is
symbolized by bank capital's predominance.
3. Finance— The Role of "Bank Capital"
Technical innovation, which started around 1955, facili
tated rapid leveling up of production and created a huge
amount of capital demand. Industrial funds invested during
the seven-year period from 1955 to 1962 aggregated as
much as ¥29,000,000 million. The figure consists of two
parts : ¥ 10,000,000 million internal funds by means of self-
accumulation (depreciation reserve and internal reserve) and
¥19,000,000 million external funds (stocks, industrial bonds,
loans from financial organs, and government funds). The
ratio of internal funds to the total is only 34 per cent,
showing enterprises' heavy dependence on external funds.
Seventy per cent of the sources of external fund procure
ment for industry are loans from financial organs, more
than half of which are occupied by loans from banks
throughout the country. Banks have collected just about
half of deposit and savings in financial organs. The balance
of deposits and savings at all financial organs in Japan at
the end of 1962 amounted to ¥24,000,000 million, of which
¥12,000,000 million was at banks throughout the country.
22 GENERAL
In the amount of deposits at banks, corporation deposits
occupied 60 per cent, while individual deposits 40 per cent.
Seventy eight per cent of the total individual deposit amount
was those with an amount of less than ¥500,000, or 30 per
cent of the total bank deposits. In the number of deposit
accounts, individual deposits with an amount of less than
¥500,000 reached as many as 98 per cent of the total
number of individual deposit accounts or 90 per cent of all
of both corporation and individual deposit accounts. In
other words, even bank deposits of huge amounts very
heavily depend upon petty savings of individuals. The
low standard of individual income and the inadequate social
security system put a limit on the choice of saving and
investment. Petty funds are not suitable for security invest
ment and cannot help assuming the form of saving deposits.
The dissolution of the family system by postwar democra
tization has taken away the pillar of life security for
individuals. Now, the individual has no other means to
depend upon for his life's security than his own savings,
because the social security system is so poor. Here Japan's
particular financial route is established — individual savings —
bank loans — fund procurement for industry. Besides, bank
loans concentrate on large enterprises. Of the total balance
of bank loans at the end of 1962, the amount of loans for
smaller enterprises (with a capital of less than ¥1,000,000)
was only 27 per cent, just about one fourth of the total
balance. Industrywise, half of this total balance was
occupied by the manufacturing industry. And two thirds
of this amount for the manufacturing industry was for the
heavy and chemical industries, especially for the machinery
and steel industries. In the field of commerce, 90 per cent
of the total loans was for wholesalers, of which 30 per
cent was loans for trading firms. Of the total loans for
retailers, department stores occupied as much as 40 per
cent. Thus a huge amount of the general public's petty
AN ANALYSIS OF THE JAPANESE ECONOMY 23
savings, after having been absorbed into the nation-wide
bank networks, is provided for the heavy and chemical
industries for facilitating " the nation's economic growth "
on the one hand, and also supplied to giant trading firms
in the wholesale division and to department stores in the
retail division for provoking the so-called " distribution
revolution " on the other.
4. Commerce and Trade— The Problem of "Market"
In the process of rapid growth of the Japanese economy,
the number of stores and the number of constant com
mercial employees have also increased. According to " The
Table of Commercial Statistics " issued by the Ministry of
International Trade and Industry, during the period from
September 1954 to June 1960, the number of stores increased
by 11.6 per cent, while the number of employees showed a
40.4 per cent increase. Of these figures, the increase of
wholesalers accounted for 29.9 per cent as compared with
an 8.9 per cent increase in retailers. In the number of
constant employees, wholesalers had an increase of 68.3 per
cent, while retailers had only a 28.7 per cent increase.
The increasing rate of employees exceeded that of stores,
indicating that the sales of stores expanded. The fact
that wholesalers exceeded retailers in the increasing rate
of both the number of stores and the number of employees
shows that against the rapid expansion of mining and
industrial production and the rise of minimum investment
units, the basis of petty retailers weakened, while in the
wholesale division, corresponding to the progress of mass
production and diversification of commodities, the completion
of distribution processes centered around the wholesale
stage was steadily in progress.
Even in 1960, about 91 per cent of retail stores were
petty enterprises with a number of employees from one to
4. In the stratum below these retailers existed a tremendous
24 GENERAL
group of petty peddlers and traveling salesmen. The
relative importance of petty stores with one to 4 employees,
however, has been consistently declining, indicating the
progress of class differentiation inside retail trade. Atop
the class differentiation stand giant department stores,
supermarkets, and super stores. In the wholesale division
also, small-sized stores with one to 4 employees have lost
their relative importance. During the period from 1958 to
1962, class differentiation took place centering around whole
salers with 5 to 9 employees. Atop the class differentiation
stand a few mammoth general trading firms.
Since the high growth of the Japanese economy, namely,
a strong capital accumulation, started with equipment invest
ment, modernization of equipment called for sudden increase
of both raw material and machinery imports, which then
increased production. And the increased production sought
its outlet in increased exports. During this cycle export
and import lost their balance, calling for an adverse balance
of international payment because of unfavorable balance
of trade. Adverse trends in Japanese trade in postwar
years have been mainly due to excessive imports from the
United States. Of the excessive imports amounting to
$1,574 million in 1962, as much as $1,028 million was
due to excessive imports from the United States. Of Japan's
total imports in 1961, 44.5 per cent were from North
America including 35.8 per cent from the United States.
In the meantime, Japan's total exports in the same year,
30.2 per cent were destined for North America including
24.8 per cent to the United States. In other words, the
position occupied by China in Japanese trade in prewar
time has been taken over by the United States. Japanese
foreign trade before the war was conducted chiefly on the
basis of silk export and cotton import. And in con
nection with this situation, cotton products were exported
and industrial materials and machinery were imported.
AN ANALYSIS OF THE JAPANESE ECONOMY 25
Such a trade structure has undergone a gradual transition
after the war. In 1961, for instance, heavy and chemical
industrial products accounted for 46.3 per cent of the nation's
total exports. However, despite the high rate of machinery
exports, 28.1 per cent of the nation's total, most of the
products were of precision industries, in which much
intensive labor has to be concentrated on single items, such
as textile machinery and their parts, optical instruments,
radio receivers, and sewing machines. This fact indicates
a characteristic of Japan's export trade structure.
In imports, a high proportion of raw materials is not so
different from prewar years. But against a decline in
textile materials, both heavy and chemical industrial raw
materials have shown a remarkable increase in recent years.
During the six-year period from 1955, metal ore imports
increased 5.1 times in value, increasing their proportion in
overall imports from 7.5 per cent to 16.5 per cent. Mineral
fuels increased during the same period three times in value
and from 11.7 per cent to 16 per cent in proportion. This
was due to increased heavy oil imports owing to shifting
in energy sources.
The astonishing development of the Japanese economy
since 1950 has been based upon " capital's " equipment
investment and innovations supported by huge financing
from bank capital, on the one hand, and upon low wages
in " wage labor," on the other. This relationship between
capital and wage labor has been formed on the dissolution
of both smaller enterprises and independent farmers, which
were the main bodies of traditional Japanese economy. The
degree of this dissolution will be an indicator for capital
to establish its domestic market. This is why the writer
has placed emphasis on this point in this article.
CHAPTER 3
JAPANESE SOCIETY
Eiichi Kubo
1. Japan is now in the midst of radical social changes.
It is needless to say that these changes are caused by the
recent amazingly rapid growth of the nation's economy.
These changes are gradually destroying the old and tra
ditional aspects of the Japanese society and clarifying the
direction in which the new society should move forward.
These radical changes, however, involve much social friction,
so to speak, that have been brought about by the too rapid
growth of the national economy. In this respect, various
social problems and troubles have come to assume extra
ordinary aspects. In the Japanese Society in 1962, the
above mentioned inherited social changes continued to have
importance.
2. What typically symbolizes the present social changes
in Japan is a " landsliding " population movement from rural
to urban areas. In 1962 also, we could witness a tre
mendous decline in rural population on the one hand and
a radical concentration of urban population on the other.
According to an announcement made by the Statistics
Bureau of the Prime Minister's Office, of the 46 prefectures
in Japan, only eight prefectures (Tokyo, Osaka, Kanagawa,
Aichi, Saitama, Hyogo, Chiba and Kyoto, which include the
Six Big cities and the three prefectures neighboring on
Tokyo) had an inflowing rather than an outgoing popu
lation. In the other 38 prefectures, the number of departing
people exceeded that of those who came in. It is a recent
tendency in particular that while there is a decline of
population in the central parts of big cities, there is a
JAPANESE SOCIETY 27
conspicuous increase of population in the neighboring
prefectures of these big cities. This fact shows us, first
of all, a change of social conditions in the central parts of
the big cities. In other words, these parts are rapidly
being converted into business centers which are no longer
suitable as residential areas. Those who have thus been
routed out of urban centers are now flowing into neighbor
ing prefectures. The result is various problems such as the
formation of " bed towns," new types of life patterns, and
traffic troubles for the commuting population.
As to the decline of population in rural areas, the
Japanese Government takes the view that it becomes the
first step toward the structural reform of Japanese villages,
which are culturally as well as technologically lagging far
behind urban areas, and toward the solution of social stag
nation and poverty which have been inevitable in them.
The Japanese villages of today, however, are no longer
those of yesterday. According to a survey conducted by
the Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK) , there was not
so much difference between rural and urban lives in terms
of working hours. Both modernization and rationalization
of life pattern, which are recently " Consumption revolution "
or " Life renovation," are in rapid progress also in rural
areas. Though such favorable aspects or facts in rural
areas cannot be denied, however, the real situation of
Japanese villages or the direction in which they are moving
forward does not warrant any optimism. This is because
that in spite of a recent decline in rural population, farming
households have not necessarily decreased, thus keeping
the conventional pettiness of individual Japanese farming
scale as it used to be. Because of the phenomenal emig
ration or loss of young farming population in recent years,
those who are engaged in farming today consist mainly of
old people, women and children, and this hinders the
development of farming productive power. Besides, the
28 GENERAL
departure from farming villages of many young people
creates a tremendous shortage of the most realiable work
ing force for the newly-rising movement of building up
new farming villages. Thus the outlook of the " changing
farming society" is by no means bright.
3. The White Paper of National Living, issued by the
Government's Welfare Ministry, indicates that the standards
of national living have largely risen. The living renovation
index has made tremendous strides in recent years, reach
ing as many as 1810.1 in 1962 as compared with 100 in
1953 as the base year. However, despite such phenomenal
progress of life renovation, the White Paper indicates, there
is a large imbalance between individual life and social life.
It points out that the living standards of our nation have
reached the level of the world's ranking countries in
electrical appliances and that of the second ranking countries
in clothing, but so far as the nation's living environment
and facilities are concerned Japan is still far behind. Only
14 per cent of all Japanese cities, for instance, have a
sewage system. Such a low figure cannot even compare
with the high figures of Britain and France where all
cities have sewage systems and that of the United States
where 99 per cent of all cities have them. The ratio of
roads to the total space of a city in Japan is also very low.
Even in Japan's six big cities it is less than 10 per cent,
making a remarkable gap against a ratio of about 30 per
cent in both European and American cities of large size.
When we compare this fact with a rapid increase of cars,
300 units per day in big cities, we can easily understand
why these cities are deluged with cars, have paralysed
traffic and are troubled with frequent traffic accidents.
Such an imbalance between individual and social lives
largely depends for its solution on both public and social
investments in life environment facilities. But such invest
ments fall markedly short. Such problems can be found
JAPANESE SOCIETY 29
not only in life environment facilities but also in such an
aspect as individual housing difficulties. The leveling up
of the living standards in both food and clothing can be
achieved individually within the range of steadily increasing
personal income. In the aspect of housing that requires
a huge fund on the part of individual families, however, it
is absolutely impossible for low on middle income people
to solve the problem with their own funds. Even though
the postwar housing shortage has been slightly mitigated
recently, three million more houses are still badly needed.
Needless to say the housing famine is particularly con
spicuous in large cities with a tremendous concentration of
population. Even many housing development projects
undertaken by both governmental and private corporations
are like throwing water on thirsty soil. The competitive
rate to secure one of the apartments provided by the
Governmental Housing Public Corporation, for instance, is
rising yearly. On the average one out of 52.5 competitors
could secure his own apartment in 1962. The fact that
the competitive rate to get an apartment with a compara
tively low rent in Tokyo registered as high as 3585.8 times
in 1962 shows how serious is the housing shortage in Japan
and the government policy for housing development is
lagging far behind the Western standards.
4. Evil effects brought about by the excessively high
growth rate of the nation's economy are now clearly observed
in every aspect of the Japanese society. Soot and smoke,
filthy water, noises and vibrations caused by industrial
activities ; noises of running cars and their waste gases ;
soot and smoke because of heating in buildings are all
typical examples of public hazards resulting from recent
brisk industrial activities. Public attention was concentrated
upon these ill effects in 1962 and many newspapers and
magazines hotly debated the subject about who should
take responsibility for preventing these public hazards.
30 GENERAL
This indicates the extent to which the problem of public
hazards became one of the serious social problems in Japan.
According to a survey made by the Government, almost
50 per cent of urban dwellers make complaints over such
public hazards. In Tokyo and Osaka, Japan's two largest
cities, the number of days when smog is generated has
rapidly increased. Especially in winter time it is quite
common that smog sets in almost consecutive days. Its
evil effects on the people's health and sanitation as well as
on traffic are also very grave.
The nation's rapid economic growth is supposed to prosper
the people's life and promote their welfare. As a matter
of fact, however, many adverse phenomena result. The
White Paper on Children's Welfare issued by the Govern
ment which frankly admits that the high economic growth
of the nation is not necessarily bringing about good results
to the welfare of children also points out that the present
situation of children's welfare is rather at " a critical stage."
The most serious social problem in this connection, the
white paper points out, is the recent increase of delinquent
young people. The yearly increase of such young people
was seen in the immediate postwar years. At the end of
1951 the number of these young people exceeded 210,000,
just about twice the figure in 1945.
The characteristics of juvenile delinquency in recent years
are (1) the increase of younger people including even
primary school and middle school pupils, (2) the increased
brutality and grouped actions in committing crimes, and
(3) the increase of young people belonging to middle-class
families. The causes for these facts, according to the white
paper, can be found in increased leisure time, changes
wrought on domestic lives, and enriched consumer economy.
In addition, one must note how due to parents' excessive
expection from their children in their harsh competition
for entering higher schools, the dull-brained children come
JAPANESE SOCIETY 31
to be possessed by an inferiority complex which might lead
them to juvenile delinquency.
The increase of delinquent young people is in a sense a
problem of the Japanese family system. Ethics as the basis
of family life in Japan has been that of the conventional
family system. Through the process of democratization in
the postwar years, the traditional family system has
gradually collapsed. During these years, emphasis has been
placed so strongly on the release of the people from the
things old and traditional that the ethics which sustain the
order of Japanese families has been almost ignored and left
behind. The release of the people from the old bondage
of the family system, therefore, has created an unrestricted
" laissez-faire " principle. It has also tended to foster
parents' irresponsible attitude toward their children. This
is not entirely unrelated to the radical increase of delinquent
young people in recent years. Besides, such reality gives
those who advocate the ethics of the old family system
and those who intend to reconstruct it a basis for their
arguments.
The question is how to establish a new modern family
relationship after the traditional family system has been
destroyed. The things that should not be overlooked but
carefully watched in this case are the danger of retro
gressive moves to the old family system and the recent
tendency among most of Japanese families to become more
and more social units that are pursuing " bourgeois happi
ness." This attitude can be regarded as a kind of group
egoism based on a family as a social unit. Based on such
a new family-centered principle, parents' affection for their
children is apt to create a self-centered attitude which would
utilize all possible means, either fair or foul, for the sake
of their children's happiness and success in life. Needless
to say such an attitude generates parents' excessive expec
tations toward their children with the accompaying various
32 GENERAL
evil effects as mentioned earlier. The problem of the
cencentration of children into several renowned schools on
the occasion of applications for admission and of the
difficulty of entering these schools are becoming more and
more acute as social problems related directly to children's
welfare.
5. Communities " in the shade " We have thus far
summarized various social problems that have taken place
under the high growth national economy with special
emphasis on those in 1962. But we must not forget at
the same time that behind the development of the nation's
economy are left so many communities " in the shade."
The riot that took place last year in Tokyo's largest slum,
Sanya, just as in the case of the similar disturbance in
Kamagasaki, Osaka, in the previous year was an expression
of the frustration of those at the bottom of the society
who had been left behind in the economic prosperity of
the nation in general.
Because of the recent economic prosperity more than 60
per cent of middle school students now enter high schools.
In the meantime, however, there are still as many as 68,000
primary school pupils and 79,000 middle school students
who cannot attend schools for sufficient time to complete
even the compulsory education because of poverty and
other factors.
The fact that there are many unemployed workers who
have left coal mines because of the stagnation of the coal
industry is also becoming a serious social problem. Unem
ployed people who have left closed-down coal mines of
medium and small scales and their families are in the
depths of extreme misery.
The problem of the so-called " outcaste class," which does
not exist constitutionally but is actually discriminated upon
by the people in general, is also one of the most serious
social problems. There still exist many discriminative
JAPANESE SOCIETY 33
practices made by the people against those in this " class "
in housing, employment and education. In contrast to
former times, there are not many discriminative attitudes
expressed openly by people in words and deeds, but those
belonging to " outcaste communities " are socially forced
to stay in coarse living conditions and are discriminated
upon directly or indirectly by not being granted complete
freedom in occupation and education. It can be said that
in such outcast communities all Japanese social problems,
such as shabby houses, unemployment, long-term school
absence and juvenile delinquency, are concentrated. Of
course there are active measures to solve these problems
and to do away with class distinction. It is worthy of
special attention that these movements undertaken by the
people belonging to such communities are shifting from
self -centered movements pursuing only their own interests
to movements for defending the Constitution and the
fundamental human rights.
CHAPTER 4
GENERAL OUTLOOK OF
THOUGHT MOVEMENT
Yasuki Kuyama
The "Shiso no Kagaku" (Science of Thought) Incident
was the first incident that marred Japan's thought move
ment in 1962. Science of Thought Study Group edited a
feature article on the Emperor system of Japan to be put in
the January issue of the magazine " Shiso no Kagaku,"
which was published by Chuo-koron Publications Ltd. Just
before the publication, Chuo-koron Publications retracted
and destroyed all copies of the magazine containing this
article, fearing reprisals from rightwingers.
Once in the past, Chuo-koron Publications had published
a story called " Furyu Mutan ", by Shichiro Fukazawa in
the December 1960 issue of their magazine " Chuo-koron ".
This story, which dealt with an imaginary murder of the
Imperial Family through a revolution in the simile of a
dream, incurred the wrath of rightwing terroists. On
February 1, 1962, a youth who belonged to a rightwing
organization was enraged by this story ; he forced his way
into the house of Mr. Shimanaka, President of Chuo-koron
Publications killing a maid and wounding Mrs. Shimanaka.
This murder so shocked Chuo-koron Publications that it
was afraid of provoking the Fascists again by an article
on the Emperor system.
In the meantime, an astonishing fact which has come to
light is that Chuo-koron Publications showed the unpublished
magazine, which was destroyed later, to some rightwing
organizations and to the Security Investigation Agency,
without the permission of the Thought of Science Study
GENERAL OUTLOOK OF THOUGHT MOVEMENT 35
Group, its author. This incident aroused the controversy
over the question whether or not freedom of thought was
in danger. Some people were indignant at the attitude
of Chuo-koron Publications and that of the executive staff
of the Science of Thought Study Group, which had con
sented to this action. Other people criticised this " ignoble
defeat of liberty" and observed in it symptoms of the
recrudescence of Fascism.
The controversial article on the Emperor system was
later published independently by Shiso no Kagaku Publi
cations which was established at the end of March 1962.
In reality, the article itself was not so " objectionable " as
some people anticipated. It was the discussion of the
problem from many standpoints, including that in favor of
the Emperor system, truly reflecting the pluralistic and
pragmatic nature of the Science of Thought Study Group.
In this article the argument of Mr. Ashizu, who is in favor
of the maintenance of the Emperor system, impresses the
reader more deeply than the arguments against the system
put up by progressive scholars, for the former is logically
perspicuous and realistic. The problem of the Emperor
system, which is rooted in the deep psychology of the
race, is outside the realm of modernism. Herein the
isolation of intelligentsia from the rest of the population is
most conspicuous.
However, the " Shiso no Kagaku " Incident exposed the
typical incompetency and the absence of a logical backbone
on the part of Japanese journalism as represented by Chuo-
koron Publications. Chuo-koron Publications seems to have
succumbed to the temptation of unprincipled commercialism.
For example, / Fujin Koron ", a women's magazine published
by Chuo-koron is more and more taking recourse to the
appeal to the lower sensual curiosity of the rabble in the
decadent sexy mood of postwar society. The magazine
has lost much in dignity which it once had, although it
36 GENERAL
may have gained in circulation.
The above-mentioned " Furyu Mutan " belongs to the same
category of dubious literature. This story is intent on
raising a sensation with open contempt toward the people's
psychology rather than in expressing the " love of liberty ".
Once the rightwing terrorism was started against it, the
Chuo-koran Publications was so much intimidated that
without putting up any resistance it retracted the feature
article on the Emperor system, which has nothing
objectionable in it.
This incident gave rise to the criticism, including self-
criticism, of the Science of Thought Study Group. The
criticism was that the group neglected its social duty as
the guardian of the citizen's elementary liberty, including
the liberty to discuss the Emperor system, by consenting
to the elimination of the article without showing a fight.
The pragmatists belonging to this group, guided by plural
ism, are critical of doctrinaire Marxism, but are by no
means anti-Communistic.
The role of this versatile group in the thought movement
of postwar Japan cannot be overlooked. Once it seemed
almost certain that the pluralism of this group would
supersede Marxism as the main current of Japanese thought
after the evident dethronement of Marxism through " Anti-
Stalinization ".
However, this conjecture seems to have become rather
questionable. There arose suspicion that pluralism can
degenerate into a sort of relativism which gives consent
to everything. The group itself expressed the self-criticism
that pluralism may lead to sterile egotism. The Marxists
criticized the attitude of pluralism as lacking missionary
zeal against antagonistic thoughts, although they admitted
its use as preparatory gymnastics before a more earnest
struggle. Some of these weak points are inherent in
pragmatism itself and have only become evident in the
GENERAL OUTLOOK OF THOUGHT MOVEMENT 37
course of this incident. Another factor that must not be
overlooked is that the prewar generation of tough pragma -
tists who did not yield to Government oppression and were
called Communist-fellow-travellers, are now being replaced
by the younger generation of opportunists. In any case,
it is interesting that the criticism of pragmatism arose in
its own camp.
During this year, several successive incidents that
happened are bewildering to the progressive intelligentsia.
One of these is the widening schism between the Soviet
Union and Communist China since 1960. This conflict inside
the Communist bloc became more and more aggravated
with the border dispute between China and India, the Cuba
Incident, and the reconciliation between the Soviet Union
and Yugoslavia.
In the face of this crisis the Japanese intelligentsia did
not know what to do and sat on the fence, remaining a
lukewarm bystander throughout. The border dispute be
tween India and Communist China put the Japanese intelli
gentsia out of countenance. The educated class who had
been idolizing both Mao-tse-tung as " a true Communist "
and Premier Nehru as a " friend of peace ", were now
confronted with an insoluble enigma. They realized anew
the difficulty of maintaining peaceful neutrality in this
actual world.
Moreover, Gensuikyo (Japan Council Against Atomic and
Hydrogen Bombs) which was regarded as the central force
of the peace movement, was thrown into irredeemable
confusion when it split like an atom into two antagonistic
factions : one faction is composed of Communist sympa
thizers who condemn only the nuclear tests of the
" American Inperialists ", and the other is composed of
Socialists and Sohyo members who condemn the nuclear
tests of every country including the U. S. and USSR.
The " Main Current " of Zengakuren (National Federation
38 GENERAL
of Students) is opposed to the nuclear tests of the Soviet
Union and Communist China. 3 Zengakuren students on
their way to a students' meet in Leningrad staged an anti-
Soviet demonstration in Moscow in the Red Square itself
distributing handbills that protested against the Soviet
nuclear tests. They were immediately nabbed by the Soviet
police.
It was discovered that the staff of Zengakuren, which
staged such a violent demonstration against the Security
Treaty with the U.S., was receiving financial aid from an
anti-Communist, Mr. Seigen Tanaka, who had once defected
from Communism. This exposure gave some idea some of
the pandemonium that reigns inside Zengakuren.
The " University Supervision Act " was the center of
controversy in educational circles this year. The Education
Ministry submitted a question to the Central Educational
Council on the improvement of university education. A
part of the reply by the council on the " supervision and
administration of universities " was made public in this
year. The National Universities Association and the Science
Council of Japan submitted their own drafts, too. The
wrangling started when these three drafts were found to
disagree with each other and Premier Ikeda took up this
matter in his campaign speeches of the Upper House
elections in May.
When the Government took up this matter, it had in
mind the strengthening of Government supervision of the
national universities, which have turned into a cradle of
leftist and revolutionary thought since the end of the war.
Of course, the university professors and students, who
feared the revival of wartime oppression of thought, vio
lently opposed this move.
On the other hand, it must be admitted that the laws
concerning university administration are in a state of
confusion after the war and are subject to arbitrary inter-
GENERAL OUTLOOK OF THOUGHT MOVEMENT 39
pretation. Indeed, the very idea of the autonomy of the
universities becomes a suspicious notion when one observes
numerous instances of student movements. The Govern
ment, led by the conservative Liberal-Democrats, intended
to modify the university administration, arguing that the
Education Minister should have the power of veto as well
as the right of nomination of university administrators and
faculty ; and further, that a central organ must be esta
blished to examine whether or not the candidate for the
university post (president, faculty chief, professors) is
suitable for that post. (The controversy centered on the
question : which party within a university among the
president, the disciplinary committee or the faculty shall
be responsible, and what is the relationship between the
disciplinary committee and the faculty.
The National Universities Association (NUA) was against
the Government draft and proposed that Autonomous Uni
versity Administration Council should be set up within
NUA to arbitrate in the possible disputes. The Central
Educational Council, on the other hand, deleted in their
final draft the parts dealing with the veto power of the
Education Minister and the central organ.
The Education Ministry gave a broadside to these argu
ments, asserting that, since the Education Minister has the
right of nomination, he also potentially has the veto. It
grew into a hot dispute, and the students offered as violent
an opposition to the University Supervision Act as they
did to the Japan-ROK normalization talks.
Activities of the Soka Gakkai is one of the phenomena
that are drawing the keen attention of society since the
election of the House of Councilors in July. This religious
organization, which had been shunned by the journalistic
circles owing to its belligerent attitude towards other
religious groups as exemplified by its ruthless " Shakubuku "
conversion method, put up 7 candidates in the national
40 GENERAL
constituency and 2 candidates in the prefectural constitu
encies, all of whom were successfully elected members of
the Upper House.
Soka Gakkai collected 4,120,000 votes in the national con
stituency, closely following the Socialist Party with 8,660,000
votes and widely surpassing the Communist Party (1,120,000
votes) in the ratio of 4 to 1. Consequently, Soka Gakkai
has at present 15 members in the Upper House, occupying
3rd place after the Liberal-Democrats and the Socialists.
Already Soka Gakkai is a factor that connot be ignored
in the political world of Japan. Soka Gakkai's emergence
in politics had been a center of general interest also in
the elections of the Upper House in 1960.
Mr. Kozo Sasaki, Chairman of Elections Tactics Com
mittee of the Socialist Party, admitted that in the election
campaigns many Socialists are inferior to Soka Gakkai men
in devotion and loyalty to the party. He felt that the
Socialists must learn from the missionary zeal and vision
of Soka Gakkai.
With these elections as a turning point, the evaluation
by the intelligentsia of so-called mushroom religions is
slowly undergoing a change. This is clearly reflected in
the report, " Soka Gakkai and Yamagishi Kai "1} in the
August 5 issue of " The Asahi Journal ". This report,
subtitled " Belligerent Burning of the Dissatisfaction of
People or One who Never gets Angry", is the reaction of
the intelligentsia to these 2 religious groups. The educated
people watch with awe the fever of humanistic revolution
that is spreading like wildfire among the common people.
The Soka Gakkai men elected to the upper house formed
a political party called " Komei Seiji Remmei " (Honest
Politics Association). According to their doctrine the
1) Yamagishikai is the name of a fanatical organization that
believed in " Z-Revolution ".
GENERAL OUTLOOK OF THOUGHT MOVEMENT 41
prosperity of a community should be identical with the
happiness of individuals. Soka Gakkai's aim is to carry
out various policies for realizing true happiness and
prosperity of the Japanese people and the eternal peace of
the world.
Believing that this is just what Priest Nichiren taught
by his motto " rissho-ankoku " (the establishment of
righteousness and the security of the country) , Komei Sei ji
Remmei promises to lead the masses of Japan as a modern,
democratic political organization, fighting all kinds of evil
to the end. In accordance with its party program based
on this ideal, Komei Seiji Remmei is opposed to nuclear
weapons and the change of the Constitution ; it would also
push the cleansing of the political world. Its present plan
calls for the election of 1000 Soka Gakkai members in the
coming local elections of April, 1963. Beyond doubt this
growing religious organization poses a grave problem not
only to political circles but also to ideological and religious
circles of Japan.
Dr. Gen Tanabe, a pillar of Japan's thought world, died
at the age of 77 on April 29, 1962. Kunio Yanagida also
died at the age of 87 on August 8. These are heavy losses
to the educated circles of this country.
In the early 1920s when Neo-Kantism found its way into
Japan, Dr. Tanabe made his debut in academic circles by
such outstanding works as " Modern Natural Science " and
" An Outline of Science ". Although his thought one time
was under the influence of Nishida philosophy, when he
was in Kyoto University by the invitation of Dr. Kitaro
Nishida, he grew critical of the latter's philosophy owing
to his ethical and practical turn of mind. Dr. Tanabe
broke with Marxism, too, and set up his own philosophy
of " Absolute Dialectic ". His standpoint is set forth in
his work : "An Outline of Philosophy ".
He maintained a negative attitude to the rising national-
42 GENERAL
ism of Japan in the 1930's and expounded the " ethics of
species " based on his profound analysis of racial problems.
After the war he was deeply engaged in the philosophy of
repentance and salvation by faith, which reminds us of the
Priest Shinran and Kierkegaard. He saw in the synthesis
of Christianity, Buddhism and Marxism the essential task
of modern philosophy. His writings, such as : " Existence,
Love and Practice " ; " Dialectic of Christianity " ; " Intro
duction to Philosophy", etc, which exerted some influence
on the modern thinking of this country, are prompted by
this idea.
He was awarded the Cultural Merit Prize in 1950 and
was appointed professor emeritus of Freiburg University in
1957. Dr. Tanabe is the co-founder of academic philosophy
in this country together with Ikutaro Nishida, Seiichi
Hatano, and Tetsuro Watsuji. He pursued with rare
sincerity the problem of amalgamation of Oriental and
Occidental cultures, which is the mission assigned to the
Japanese race.
Yanagida was a famous expert of Japanese folk-lore. He
handed down to his successors rich materials on the eth
nology of common people. These data are indispensable
for any serious study of this subject.
During this year, numerous luxury editions of the writings
of these eminent Japanese philosophers after 1920 were
published in succession. Some of them are : Complete
Works of Tetsuro Watsuji, 20 Volumes ; Works of Kunio
Yanagida, 25 Volumes plus 3 Supplements ; Complete Works
of Gen Tanabe, 14 Volumes ; Comple Works of Tadao
Yanaibara, 27 Volumes ; Complete Works of Takashi Ide,
7 Volumes ; Complete Works of Jiro Abe.
That such expensive works were purchased in large
numbers is explained not only by the rising living standard
of the people but also by the mounting interest in past
thinkers due to the slump of thought movement in modern
GENERAL OUTLOOK OF THOUGHT MOVEMENT 43
times. Such a tendency is also to be discerned in the
series " Japanese Thinkers in the Past 100 Years " in
" The Asahi Journal ".
This publishing boom of luxury editions extended to the
writings of overseas thinkers, too. Some of them are :
Complete Works of Nietzsche, 16 Volumes with 1 Supple
ment ; Works of Kierkegaard, 21 Volumes ; Complete
Works of Dostoyevski, 23 Volumes ; Complete Works of
Tolstoy, 23 Volumes. In 1962, Collections of Japanese
Literature, Collections of World Literature, and Collection
of World Cultures, continued to be sold actively in book
stores.
One important event during 1962 was the death on
October 28 of Hakucho Masamune, 83, a naturalistic writer.
His funeral was conducted according to Christian rites.
Masamune was baptized by The Rev. Masahisa Uemura
when he was 18. However, he later backslid and lived as
a confirmed freethinker and naturalist in the following 60
years, severely criticizing the Christian ways. Kanzo Uchi-
mura once called him " a devil of a man " However, he
came back to Christianity 6 months before his death. He
was buried in Christian style in accordance with his will,
The Rev. Mrs. Tamaki Uemura, the daughter of his late
baptizer, conducting the rites.
This appears incredible at first sight. But when one
reads his last work " A Secret ", one is struck by the deeply
Christian sentiments pervading his thoughts. He writes :
" I am wondering what I shall whisper on my death-bed :
" Namuamidabutsu " (a Buddhist prayer) or " Jesus Christ "?
It will be decided by the stronger of the two influences
that are working in me : the ancestral Japanese religion
or the alien faith." Elsewhere, his words are expressive
of his deep love and respect to Masahisa Uemura and
Kanzo Uchimura.
Under these circumstances, it is hardly surprising that
44 GENERAL
Masamune went to the church of The Rev. Mrs. Tamaki
Uemura and made preparations for his Christian burial,
once he sensed the approach of his death. In spite of
his sympathy with modern thought, something in him
always yearned for true Christianity, so sincere was his
attitude foward life.
With respect to Protestant Christianity, a conspicuous
event was the founding on April 30 of the Christian Society
for the Protection of the Constitution a few days before
the Constitution Day, May 3. The original plan of this
society called for the organizing a nation-wide campaign
to collect signatures of 1 million church people. Regrettably
this campaign fizzled out with the signatures numbering
only about 100,000. The first Convention of the Christian
Society for Peace was held in September.
There was no great upheaval of the thought movement
in general this year. It was a year of a painful search
for the way out after the bankruptcy of Marxism and
pragmatism after the war. The eye of the intellectual
people was again turned to the thinkers of the past. How
to assimilate alien thoughts in domestic soil? How to
harmonize tradition and modern ideas, these were the
problems that engaged the intellectual curiosity of the
times.
CHAPTER 5
THE RELIGIOUS WORLD
(Except Christianity)
William P. Woodard
The year 1962 was not an eventful one for the religious
world ; but a number of trends which have been evident in
previous years continued to develop strength. The long-
established religions (Buddhism and Shinto) have been so
accustomed to depend upon the government for assistance
and guidance (and to expect interference) that it will take
many years for them to develop leadership appropriate for
a modern free society. It was too much to expect that
priests, accustomed for centuries to a paternalistic society,
could suddenly adapt themselves to new conditions ; yet
there are isolated indications of vitality on a local level.
One looks in vain, however, for anything that resembles
what might be called a forward movement in these faiths.
Perhaps the most significant thing is that the number of
leaders who are concerned about the situation seems to be
increasing ; and there are a number who are trying to find
ways to make their faith more vital to the individual. No
new movements of national importance have appeared re
cently and one gets the impression that at least some of
the newer movements are attempting to consolidate their
organization rather than increase their following. Soka
Gakkai is a sensational exception.
1. General
The two-year term of the members of the Religious Juri
dical Persons Advisory Council having expired, the Ministry
of Education in May announced the appoinment of the fol-
46 GENERAL
lowing (asterisks indicate new appointees) :
Shigeyo Katori* (Chief Priest of Katori Shrine) .
Tadakiyo Takamatsu* (Chief Priest of Sumiyoshi
Shrine in Osaka).
Keigoro Moroi (General Secretary of Tenri-kyo) .
Ken'ichi Shishino (Chief Abbot of Fuso-kyo) .
Ryoden Abe (Counsellor of Shingon-shu Chizan-hd) .
Shundo Kurimoto (General Secretary of Japan Bud
dhist Federation).
Nobuo Kurube* (General Secretary of Shin-shu Otani-
ha).
Shuichi Kongo* (General Secretary of Soto-shu) .
Zenta Watanabe (Minister of United Church of Christ
in Japan) .
Tokuchika Miki (Patriarch of PL-Kyodan) .
Nikkyo Niwano* (President of Rissho Kosei Kai).
Juichi Shimomura (Former President of the Religious
Juridical Persons Advisory Committee).
Ichisuke Otsuka* (Professor of Tokyo University of
Foreign Studies)
Kiyosuke Inada* (Director of National Museum of
Modern Arts).
Hideo Kishimoto (Professor of Tokyo University).
This Council advises the Minister of Education on the im
plementation of the Religious Juridical Persons Law and
related matters and is an important means of getting the
opinion of the religious world before officials of the Ministry.
Perhaps the nearest thing to a minor sensation during
the year was Dr. Hideo Kishimoto's testimony before the
Constitution Investigation council in which he suggested
ways in which Shinto shrines could acquire special status
without amending the Constitution. The political conserva
tives were quite satisfied, but a number of organizations
raised their voices in protest. Many Christians, both the
fundamentalists and the liberal-inclined, protested, as did
THE RELIGIOUS WORLD 4?
also the leftist Religious Peace Conference. What was some
what unexpected was the fact that Dr. Kishimoto was
called upon by the Association for Religious Studies at its
annual meeting in Fukuoka in October to explain his posi
tion.
Religious individuals and groups active in the ban-the-bomb
movement were thrown into a quandary in August when
the 8th World Conference of the Council Against Atom and
Hydrogen Bombs broke up in confusion because the control
ling leftist group insisted that only the " West " should be
condemned in the Conference's final resolutions. By the end
of the year it looked as if the Council itself might break-up
because of the division over this problem.
Stirred by published articles which have dealt somewhat
intimately, as well as imaginatively, with the Imperial
Family, the Liberal Democratic Party announced in March
that it was prepared to draft a lese majesty law for pre
sentation to the next session of the Diet. But this would
have been political dynamite and did not occur.
In spite of efforts by religious organizations which operate
kindergartens to get special concessions that would make
certain provisions of the law inapplicable to them, the Mini
stry of Education declined to do so. It did amend the law
so that the original deadline for providing the prescribed
facilities was postponed for five years.
An effort was made by prison chaplains, who at present
serve on a voluntary basis, to secure legal status, but no
thing concrete was accomplished during the year. The
Committee on Prison Chaplains of the Religious League was
dissolved and the responsibility for this was placed in the
executive committee of the League.
A " Peace March " consisting of four young Buddhists
and Christians left Hiroshima in April on a tour through
Asia and Europe to Auschwitz, Poland, in the interest of
peace.
48 GENERAL
The Kyoto Prefectural Government appropriated ¥14.5
million ($50,000) for the protection of shrines and temples
against calamities and demanded that the national treasury
increase its support. (Presumably this applied to temples
which are regarded as important cultural objects or which
house designated national treasures.)
One of the most serious challenges which religion faces
today is that posed by the appearance of enormous apart
ment house areas throughout the country. Every major
religious body is confronted with this problem ; that is,
everyone except Soka Gakkai, which seems to have little
difficulty in penetrating even this impersonal wall.
2. Islam in Japan
Mr. Ryoichi Mita, former president of the Japan Muslim
Council, Left Japan for Saudi Arabia in order to attend the
World Muslim Conference and complete a Japanese trans
lation of the Koran.
Buddhism
1. General
The state of Buddhism, the dominant religion of the
country, continues to cause concern in the minds of Bud
dhist leaders because of its lack of vitality and of relevance
to the everyday life of the people. It is very difficult to find
any thoughtful priest or Buddhist leader who is generally
optimistic about the future of Buddhism here. This does not
necessarily mean that there is any lack of faith in Buddhism
itself, but it, does mean that the temples have lost contact
with the people and no one seems to know precisely what
to do about it. However, Buddhism has faced darker days
that this in the past and has shown considerable resilience
in the face of what has seemed like hopeless situations.
It is too early, therefore, to conclude, as some have, that
THE RELIGIOUS WORLD 49
the faith is doomed. But the situation is so serious that it
is not unlikely that Buddhists may become somewhat reac
tionary in an effort to recover some of their lost prestige.
There was nothing that could be called really significant
for Buddhism in the events of the year 1962, if by that is
meant something that vitally affected the life of the temples,
the priesthood, and possibly Buddhist adherents as a whole.
In the world of Buddhist leadership the most significant
event was probably the visit to the United States of a party
of some thirty-five leaders to attend the America- Japan Bud
dhist Cultural Conference in New York in October com
memorating the 70th anniversary of the visit of the first
Japanese priests to the United States. Some of the party
toured the United States before returning home ; others
went on around the world. Undoubtedly the outstanding
event for the latter group was their audience with Pope
John XXIII.
There are some who hope that, by stirring up interest
in promoting the faith abroad, a revival of faith may occur
at home but this is something of a pious hope. It would
be mistake, however, to suppose that the party was com
posed entirely of outstanding leaders of Buddhism in Japan.
In a number of cases at least it was a question of who
could raise the money. It has been proposed that a second
conference be held in Tokyo in 1964. If this is done, it
will be under the auspices of the Buddhist Federation, the
special body organized to promote the New York Conference
having been dissolved.
At the beginning of the new year the furor over the film,
Sakya, which depicted the life of the Buddha, had not sub
sided. The Buddhist Federation and other organizations and
individuals were trying to pressure the producer into delet
ing those portions of the film which were regarded as ob
jectionable to Buddhist sensibilities. Just what happened is
not known, but the film does not appear to have been a
50 GENERAL
sensational success. At any rate by the end of the year all
agitation had subsided.
A project which could still have great deal of significance
for Buddhism was the announcement of a plan of Mr.
Matsutaro Shoriki, President of the Yomiuri Newspaper
Co., to establish a fund of approximately $10 million for the
promotion of Buddhist Sunday Schools. The project involved
a willingness on the part of Buddhist temples, etc., to match
the proposed gifts and it may be that this is why little was
heard of the matter, at least during the twelve months
under review. Few temples are in a state of affluence
which permits much expansion.
A group of small Buddhist sects and independent temples
organized their own federation, The Union of Independent
Buddhist Sects (Bukkyo Tanryu Hojin Rengo), for the
purpose of promoting matters of mutual interest and
perhaps with the intent of seeking affiliation with the
Buddhist Federation. Since, however, the Union consists
of sects and temples which seceded from the long established
sects that control the Federation, it is doubtful whether it
will be admitted to membership.
The Buddhist Youth Association of Japan (Zen Nikon
Bukkyo Seinen Kai] conducted a survey which revealed
that a majority of Buddhist Youth were in favor of pre
serving the present status of the Emperor and against the
giving official status to the Grand Shrine of Ise, which is
dedicated to the Imperial Ancestress, and to Yasukuni
Shrine, which is for the veneration of the spirits of the war
dead.
2. Straws in the Wind
Economics — A Buddhist temple in Hakodate joined an organi
zation of small business concerns in order to
secure social security benefits for its employees.
— Some temples in Kyoto were reported to have
THE RELIGIOUS WORLD 51
organized a travel agency for their pilgrims in
order to receive the commissions which nor
mally go to commercial concerns.
— The Buddhist Federation has affiliated with the
movement of landlords who are seeking addi
tional compensation for losses suffered in con
nection with the enactment of the Farm Land
Reform Law, and initiated a survey to learn
what the actual losses of the temples in the
rural areas were.
Union and Secession — The reunion of the Jodo Hompa Sect
and the Jodo Sect was completed during the
year.
— Shogo'in head temple of the Shugendo Sect,
seceded from the sect because sect officials
were seeking to secure control of the head
temple's property.
Miscellaneous — Fire destroyed another temple. This time
it was Negoro-ji, a famous Shingon temple at
the foot of Mount Koya.
—The International Buddhist Institute (Kokusai
Bukkyo Kenkyu Kai) conducted its annual Eng
lish-language international conference at Takei-
ji in Kamakura in August. This is a part of
the effort of the Buddhists to improve mutual
understanding and to promote more effectively
their faith abroad. Dr. D. T. Suzuki was one
of the principal speakers of the conference.
— The Nishi Honganji Sect approved a plan to
shift from a household-centered organization
to an individual membership system. This was
a revolutionary step and is regarded as an at
tempt to modernize and increase its influence
among individual believers.
—A group of adherents of the Nishi Honganji
52 GENERAL
Sect formed an organization to discredit schol
ars who advance the theory that Mahayana
Buddhism is not the original teaching of the
Buddha.
— In connection with the Asian Boy Scout Jam
boree in Japan the scouts of Thailand and those
of the Higashi Honganji Sect concluded an ag
reement to cooperate in the development of
their programs.
—Higashi Hongan-ji in Kyoto opened a legal
affairs office for free consultation on the part
of its adherents.
— Myoshin-ji largest of the sects of Rinzai sects
of Zen Buddhism, dedicated a contemplation
hall which is open to the public during week
ends. It also publicized Zen in connection with
conferences for the training of top manage
ment officials.
Some Modern Buddhist Movements
1. Soka Gakkai
Soka Gakkai continued to hold the limelight. It claimed
to maintain its phenomenal rate of growth of 80-100,000
new households a month ; but careful observers are inclined
to believe that, while there is still remarkable growth, the
rate is not as great as in the past. Because of the lack of
any means of verification, all that can be done is to accept
the claims with considerable reserve. There is no way of
knowing what the membership losses are, because little or
nothing regarding this is ever reported. Those who are
inclined to drift away from the movement can do so only
with the greatest difficulty and sometimes at considerable
personal risk. Consequently they are inclined to conceal
the fact.
THE RELIGIOUS WORLD 53
In some respects the organization would appear to have
become more moderate. For example, the Society has es
tablished its own cemetery at its head temple, Taiseki-ji, and
thus eliminated in part one area of unprofitable sources of
conflict. At the same time the lower courts acting in favor
of the Society in ruling that local temples could not prohibit
use of family ancestral burial lots even though no religious
services were desired and no fee was paid to the temple
concerned.
The sensational success of the Society in electing all nine
of its candidates to the House of Councillors in the July 1st
election was regarded in most quarters as an ominous fore
boding of greater successes to come. Following the elec
tion, which made the Soka Gakkai members the third lar
gest political body (15 in all) and strong enough to enter
into bargaining relations in regard to procedural matters,
a political organization, called the Komei Seiji Remmei,
literally, " The Society for Clean Politics," was established.
This is ostensibily an independent organization but it is
clearly recognized as an appendage of Soka Gakkai.
Early in the year the Osaka District Court rendered a
decision which declared President Daisaku Ikeda not guilty
of violating the election law in 1957, but twenty followers
of the organization were given light sentences.
It is generally supposed that the adherents of Soka Gakkai
constitute a solid block in politics, and that is what the
1962 election would seem to indicate. It is of interest,
therefore, that Director Akira Kuroyanagi of the Society
declared at a meeting of the National Cultural Conference
that some of the youth were supporting reformist politicial
parties.
Bin Akao, the well known extreme rightist announced
the opening of an anti-Soka Gakkai campaign. The Nichi-
ren Sect established a special organization of priests to coun
teract the influence of the Society. And other bodies con-
54 GENERAL
tinued their efforts to prevent further inroads among their
faithful. The Socialist Party has had difficulty in formulat
ing a suitable policy vis-a-vis the Society. In March the
local branches were urged to recover members who had
become Soka Gakkai adherents, but the next month it was
reported that an understanding had been reached that the
previous action had been councelled.
The first Soka Gakkai prison chaplain was appointed to
serve in Utsunomiya.
The first volume of a new quarterly, The Toyo Gakujutsu
Kenkyu (Oriental Studies) was published in commemoration
of the establishment of the Institute for Oriental Studies by
the Society.
2. Rissho Kosei Kai
Rissho Kosei Kai does not appear to have suffered because
of Soka Gakkai attacks on it : In February the founder,
President Nikkyo Niwano, for the first time openly took a
stand against Soka Gakkai and urged other religious bodies
to join in combating the aggession of that organization.
A national youth organization meeting in January brought
out 13,000 delegates. Some 40,000 followers attended the
25th anniversary of the founding of the society in March.
It was announced at that time that an illustrated magazine,
" Kosei Graphic," would begin publication.
In the political field Kosei Kai organized the Kosei Kondan
Kai (Kosei Conference) for the purification of politics and
the education of its membership in political matters.
In an effort to stabilize its organization the doctrinal de
partment announced a plan for training teachers. Much
has been made of the lay character of this and other of
the newer movements, but in order to hold their adherents
the leaders are finding that something must be done to train
effective workers. Whether this will ultimately result in
the development of a professional clergy remains to be seen.
THE RELIGIOUS WORLD 55
3. Reiyu Kai
Reiyu is also able to draw large numbers to its various
meetings. 20,000 delegates attended a youth assembly in
April, at which time it was announced that a new center
for the society would be established on the Izu peninsula
south of Tokyo at an estimated cost of nearly $7 million.
Shrine Shinto
1. General
The shrine world is especially alert to the implications of
shrines for the transformation in the life of the people typi
fied by the recent development of enormous apartment
house areas. The old community patterns are rapidly break
ing down and the relation between shrines and local house
holds is disappearing. To cope with this the Association
of Shinto Shrines conducted a careful survey and drafted
plans 'for promiting shrine worship, but it is too soon to
say whether anything has been accomplished.
The Association has also been concerned about a decline
in the distribution of the sacred amulet (Taima) of the
Grand Shrine of Ise. In connection with the ninetieth an
niversary of the general distibution of the talisman, a three
year project was launched to increase the annual total from
6.2 million to 7 million. This may seem like a large figure
but actually the 6.2 million is approximately the number
distributed in 1932 when the population of Japan Proper
was about 65 million, or some 30 million less than today.
In 1944 the distribution reached 13.4 million which meant
that more than nine out of every ten households had one.
At present the talisman is to be found in considerably less
than half the households.
The efforts to revive " National Foundation Day " and
give Ise and Yasukuni shrines special status continued.
56 GENERAL
Moreover the Association selected representatives who favor
a change in the status of the Emperor to represent it be
fore the Constitution Investigation Council.
Early in the year the Ministry of Education gave its ap
proval for the establishment of Kogakkan University at Ise,
and the opening ceremony was held in mid-April with 103
students enrolled.
2. Miscellaneous items
—The Nagoya District Court in March ruled that the top
of Mount Fuji was the property of the Fujinomiya Sengen
shrine. However, the government filed an appeal, so the
case is still pending.
—Reconstruction of the Togo Shrine, dedicated to Admiral
Heihachiro Togo of Russo-Japanese War fame, was started
with ¥40 million out of a total budget of ¥70 million al
ready in hand.
—The Sumiyoshi Shrine in Osaka transported its sacred
palanquin through the streets by motor vehicle at the time
of the summer festival.
—The Japan Shinto Priests Teachers Council (Zenkoku
Shinshoku Kemmu Kyogikai} held its 3rd annual convention
at which time the organization reaffirmed its policy of fa
voring the introduction of Shinto principles into general
public education.
—The Rev. Shizuka Matsubara of Kenkun Shrine in Kyoto,
who visited Rome during the year, is probably the first
shrine priest to ever have an audience with a pope.
Other Religious Sects and Movements
1. Union of New Religious Organizations
The headquarters of the Union of New Religious Organiza
tions was busy during the year assisting and promoting the
interest of the seventy-five organizations that are affiliated
THE RELIGIOUS WORLD 57
on a national level and seventy-five other and smaller groups
that are affiliated on a branch level. A second leadership
training seminar was conducted for four days under the
joint sponsorship of the Union and the Center for Religious
Studies of the Nippon University with an attendance of 500
persons from various related bodies. A North Kanto Branch
of the Union was established in the fall with twelve addi
tional local affiliated organizations.
The series of conferences on political and social problems
was held during the year and a memorial service for the
victims of World War II was observed at the Tomb for
Unidentified Soldiers at Chidorigafuchi in Tokyo with an
estimated 55,000 persons participating.
2. General
Seicho no le — Three thousand persons attended a special
training course for young leaders in May with the motto :
" Praying for Peace."
World Messianity — Yoshiko Okada, spiritual leader of the
Church of World Messianity (Sekai Kyusei-kyo} died in
January and was succeeded by Mrs. Itsuki Okada.
The " Dancing Religion "•— Tensho Kotai Jingu-kyo, gener
ally known as the " Dancing Religion," began construction
of a large hall at its headquarters in Tabuse, Yamaguchi.
Omoto — In November President Eiji Deguchi resigned in
connection with a reorganization of the sect in a movement
to separate the religious activities from other activities of
the sect. The official paper, Jinrui Aizen Shimbun, sus
pended publication until a new staff was appointed. The
same month the Reverend Eiji Deguchi and two Buddhist
priests attended a meeting of the World Peace Council in
Moscow.
Tenri-kyo — Tenri-kyo dedicated a twelve-story modern office
building in Kanda, Tokyo, which also houses its Tokyo of
fices.
58 GENERAL
Annanai-kyo — The Third International Congress for Cultur
al Harmony sponsored by Annanai-kyo was held in May
with a total attendance of 360 delegates. Twenty-eight
foreign countries were represented.
II THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
CHAPTER 6
PRESENT CONDITIONS OF CHURCH
EDUCATION IN JAPAN
Yoshio Kimura
Now is the time when education based on the church or
religious education for all generations has finally come to
take shape. One of the types of such education can be
realized by closely linking education in Christian schools
and that in churches. This seems to be well promoted all
over the country.
Educational activities for those outside school ages have
materialized in many different ways. In some denominations,
religious education is conducted after worship services by
dividing people into several classes. Also in many churches
Bible study meetings are held prior to worship services.
Some churches plan home meetings by regional groups
from an educational standpoint. Guidance of mothers'
associations organized in connection with church -attached
kindergartens and nurseries is also an outgrowth of such
planned educational activities.
As it has been loudly advocated that evangelism in the
second century of Protestantism in Japan should be con
ducted through education, every necessary step seems to
be steadily taken to achieve this goal.
Church Schools
Although the number of church school pupils hit the
bottom about 1960, it has been gaining, though slowly,
year by year. In urban areas there are several church
60 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
schools that have more middle and high school students
than primary school children. This can be attributed to
the fact that many parents try to send their sons and
daughters to churches lest they may indulge in juvenile
delinquency. Another reason is that many Christian
schools are leading their students with churches.
Church education in postwar years has been conducted
with excessive emphasis on systematic intellectual teaching.
The function of the Holy Sprit and dynamic and spiritual
guidance of children seems to have been all but neglected.
Even though everything is systematically and smoothly
conducted, church education takes absolutely the wrong
way if it ignores the work of the Holy Spirit. The
intellectual side of church education has been well empha
sized, but the spiritual side has been disregarded.
Although some people say that the well-prepared curricula
have paradoxically produced such an adverse effect as this
fact, it is widely recognized now that this cannot be
attributed to such curricula themselves but rather to
unskilled writers and teachers who utilize teaching materials.
Training of both writers and teachers is not yet adequately
conducted.
Adult Education
Even though curricula for adult education is already
completed, there are few churches which have a good
command of these curricula.
The National Christian Council of Japan has in its
structure a department for domestic life. But the depart
ment is busily engaged in handling only the problem of
marriage, caring for nothing else. It is a time of the far
future -when all educational matters concerning family
members .'ranging from infants to young people can be
handled by the department.
Adult Education in the Church
There are several adult organizations in a church such
CHURCH EDUCATION 61
as the women's association, middle-aged people's association,
old people's association, and young people's association.
In large churches we occasionally find several groups
organized by occupational divisions.
Even though there are already curricula for these organ
izations, we can seldom find systematic education being
conducted among them.
Church- attached Educational Institutions
About one-third of all churches in Japan have educational
institutions for infants and children. But it is still regarded
as very difficult for churches to give these children adequate
Christian education throughout the years of their growth
by thoroughly catching them within the framework of
churches. The results so far fall short of our expectations.
Education Research Institutes and Teacher Training
Research activities on education have become so brisk
recently that there have been established several research
institutes on Christian education in universites. These
institutes conduct not only basic studies but also train
church school leaders and teachers. At the same time,
many "efforts are exerted in several forms such as teacher
training lectures opened not only in summer but throughout
a year in many places.
The fact that as a new attempt the so-called Group
Dynamics movement has become enthusiastic among edu
cational groups is of good omen for the advancement of
church education. Through " laboratory groups," which
are conducted once or twice a year, new leaders are being
trained.
" Education Chairmen " Conferences
Conferences of chairmen of educational committees of
many denominations and sects are occasionally held in
order to study and discuss various problems related to
education, both Japanese and foreign, as well as to exchange
various information concerning education. It can be said
62 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
that these conferences will contribute considerably to
Christian education in the future on a nation-wide scale.
Leaders of every denomination are also cooperating with
each other for the cause of education.
Curricula
The Curriculum Central Committee of the National
Christian Council's Church Education Department has
prepared synthetic curricula, which are now being widely
adopted by many denominations including the United Church
of Christ (Kyodari) , the Anglican Episcopal Church, Lutheran
churches, the Nippon Kirisuto Kyokai, and others. However,
no remedy has ever been found to cover the shortage of
publications for teachers as well as children. It is expected,
nevertheless, that new plans will be even slightly moved
forward in order to remedy this defect.
Enhancement of Evangelistic Spirit
The third week of every September is observed as Edu
cation week under the joint auspices of the Education
Association of Christian Schools, the NCC Church Education
Department and the Christian Nursing Association. This
function has been conducted so far for the purpose of
thoroughly executing Christian education at homes, churches
and schools. Contributions offered during this week have
been dedicated in recent years to Christian activities abroad.
An approximate amount of ¥2,500,000 has been yearly
contributed by all children in Christian institutions through
out the country. Overseas projects that have been helped
by such contributions include evangelistic works in the
Philippines, works conducted in Africa by Dr. Albert
Schweitzer, and medical work in Southeast Asian countries
by Japanese doctors. This is one of the results of church
education in Japan.
CHAPTER 7
YOUTH MOVEMENT
Hiroshi Shinmi
During the past year, the nation's economic development
has been really remarkable. It is no exaggeration to talk
about the ' miracle ' of technical and industrial growth in
the post-war Japan. The government policy seems to be
concentrated on the ' high speed economic growth ' or the
' rapid increase of national income '.
Prime Minister Ikeda, who is always talking about
financial statistics, has now declared that a new emphasis
is to be put on " human development and nation building",
or, to use his own expression, " hito tsukuri, kuni tsukuri" .
Now it is very difficult for us to find the exact equivalent
in other languages for the phrase " hito tsukuri". It may
be that " character building " is a better translation than
" human development ". In any case, the slogan, according
to what the Premier says, is aimed at re-assessment or
re-evaluation of the present educational system and values
in view of the rapid development in the social and economic
environment. But the slogan invited a variety of reactions
most of which are rather bitter criticisms. According to
those who criticise the idea, the nation's leader is actually
aiming at an enforcement of government control over
educational matters and also at recovering the old authori
tative philosophy of education. They are aware of the
apparent danger that this kind of slogan might lead the
young people to believe that material prosperity is the only
thing which they should seek after.
Already observable is a tendency of Japanese youth to
seek to adjust themselves to the existing order and to
64 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
adapt the values too quickly. Their major concern now is
how to achieve worldly success with the least possible
effort. They seem to care for nothing but the material
luxury, leisure, vacation, entertainment, and sensual or
sexual stimulation, are the things which occupy their mind.
Thus " Secularism " prevails among the young people in
this land just as in the other countries of the world.
Those who are concerned with the spiritual and religious
situation of the younger generation have been warned by
the destructive effect of the miraculous prosperity. Under
these circumstances we are quite aware that the Christian
youth movement must find its way to break through the
general spiritual atmosphere in order to re-affirm its claim
that the Gospel really has relevance to the life of young
people today. The churches and student organizations have
been conscious of their weakness in communicating the
Gospel to the secular world in which today's young people
are living. Our leaders in the youth movement are
struggling for the renewal of the church so that it will
recover its vitality in making witness in this tremendously
secularized generation.
Unity
" Unity in Christ " was the main theme of the Youth
Leaders Conference held at the outset of last year's NCC
youth program. At the conference two speakers presented
timely talks which were closely related to each other.
The Rev. Kiyoshi Hirai, former Executive Secretary of
NCC dealt with the topic " Church Unity and Youth". His
speech was centered around the report of the New Delhi
Assembly in which he himself took part. It was a rather
brief yet very informative talk.
Another main speech was presented by Prof. H. K. An
of Hangkuk Theological Seminary, Seoul, Korea. Prof. An
was then engaged in his survey at the Rural Evangelical
YOUTH MOVEMENT 65
Institute. He gave an extensive lecture on the "Present
Situation of Korean Society and the Churches in Korea."
which was also very enlightening to most of the Japanese
participants. As a matter of fact, it was one of the
important aims of the conference to listen to what the
Korean church leader had to say. There were several
delegates from the Korean churches in Japan who also
made significant contribution to the discussions which
followed the speech. The discussions covered such areas
as " The position and legal status of the Korean residents
in Japan ", " The possibilities of cooperation between
Korean churches and Japanese churches ", and " The need
for developing the sense of unity among Christians in the
two countries". On the whole the conference was fairly
successful in that both parties could see clearly the
difficulties between them and that they were convinced that
their task is to find a way to mutual assistance in order
to solve the problems.
Toward reconciliation
A memorable step was taken by the Youth Department
of NCC toward the improvement of the relationship between
the young people of Korea and Japan a few months after
the conference. In April and May, five delegates including
one American missionary and a Bible study leader were
sent to take part in the EACC Youth Leaders and Work
Camp Leaders Training Conference held at Seoul, Korea.
This project was planned by the EACC Youth Department
under the auspices of WCC.
In the preceding year a group of university students
visited the country on an SCM good- will mission, and
participated in a work camp program there. Then the
Japanese SCM also received a reciprocal visit by several
Korean students and leaders in the summer. But it was
the first occasion after the War that our youth leaders
66 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
actually had a chance to meet Korean young people and
also to pay an official visit with the Korean NCC and SCM.
At around the same period two other Japanese youth
secretaries went to Korea representing such world organi
zations as WCCE and WSCF.
Although the conference itself was not intended to discuss
the reconciliation between the two nations, the participants
from Japan and Korea made use of the chance to talk
extensively on the particular subject. The result was a
very fruitful one. Heated discussions were carried on,
sometimes until midnight. On certain problems both groups
never agreed, yet all of them felt that they have gained
deeper understanding of their neighbor's situation and
problems. I would like to quote here a few sentences from
the official report of EACC Youth Department which states
a view of one who did not belong to either of the two
sides :
" The delegates from Korea and Japan at once
realized how difficult it was for them to come together
all these years. They did not want to lose this
opportunity to move forward in Christian reconciliation.
The report appearing in this booklet expresses only a
small portion of the tremendous discussions that took
place every day in the meetings and in personal talks
and bull session. Some of them even produced
heat! These are encouraging signs of reconcili
ation between the two countries."
— written by Rev. Elia Peter
Chairman of EACC Youth Dept.
Contribution in International projects
The conference just mentioned in the preceding section
was designed originally for training younger leaders in
Asian countries. The topic chosen for the discussions
included : " Youth and the Bible ", " Youth, the Church
and Churches ", " Youth and Society ", " Youth and His
YOUTH MOVEMENT 67
Neighbor". In these discussions the Japanese participants
made a considerable contribution bringing their knowledge
and experiences. They felt that the churches in Japan are
much expected to share their experiences which they
accumulated during the past century in which most of the
Asian churches could not develop sufficient and adequate
leadership of their own.
The second half of the conference was dedicated to the
training of work camp leaders. Here again the Japanese
members played an important role. They brought their
ideas which they had learned from past experiences in
various types of work camps. At the Seoul conference,
opinions were expressed that the whole area of Christian
service must be re-examined in the light of the rapid
social change which is now going on in every country in
Asia. That was exactly what we discussed in the Seminar
on the Christian Service held previously in Tokyo, to which
I shall come back in the next section.
New Form of Christian Service
In early January, the United Church (Kyodari) sponsored
a Seminar on Christian Service. About thirty people
gathered to reconsider the service projects that have been
carried in the past ten years. They studied to find out
what should be the new form of service to meet the need
of present day society, not only in terms of practical and
technical approach but also of a deeper theological under
standing of the meaning of service. Masao Takenaka and
Shiro Abe were among the speakers, both of whom had
just been home from the WCC Assembly where they made
significant contributions to this particular area. Japanese
Christian youth groups have had rich experiences in various
service projects such as work camps, caravans, student in
the industry and so on after the War. But the time has
come to revise the whole situation in an effort to open up
68 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
a new area of service on the basis of new theological
perspective.
The Kyodan Youth Commission continued the study after
the conference and a part of the results has been published
in the form of a booklet, " A Guide to Work Camp ".
Student movement
a) East Asia Study Seminar
Twenty students came from the U. S. A. to have the first
session of East Asia Study Seminar which is sponsored by
UCCF (United Campus Christian Fellowship). The group
was led by Dr. Bruce Morgan. Japanese churches and
student organizations were requested to arrange the seminar
to be held in Tokyo. In order to set up an effective
program for the purpose of survey we organized an arrange
ment committee which consisted of a considerable number
of leaders selected from about ten churches and student
groups. The committee, headed by Hiroshi Shinmi met
frequently in preparation during several months. This
brought a closer contact among the member bodies and it
helped develop the sense of common responsibility for
student Christian movement.
The seminar itself was held in mid-summer at I.C.U.,
following a week of orientation program in Tokyo and the
Kansai areas. Twenty more students joined from local
colleges and universities including some Asian students either
from their home land or from the Japanese institutions
where they were studying. Dr. Masao Takenaka took the
responsibility as Dean of the Seminar. After the Seminar
was successfully closed, two Japanese participants joined
the U. S. group on the tour to other Asian countries. The
Seminar has had a great impact upon everyone who
participated in it as he or she studied the Asian situation
right on the spot. The tour covered such areas as Hong
kong, Manila, Taipei, and even Quemoy island.
YOUTH MOVEMENT 69
b) LMCC
The Life and Mission of the Church Committee, approach
ing the last stage in the study project, continued the
research on the history of the student Christian movement in
Japan. The study covered the period since the 1930's, and
it attracted the attention of the Christian circle when a
part of its results was published in the quarterly, " The
Student Christian " No 10, 1962 — the periodical now changed
its title to " The University Christian " — . The whole volume
was dedicated to the report which depicted the historical
background of the relationship between the SCM and the
churches. It tells us that there has been a long period of
misunderstanding and distrust on both sides, and that there
are still many difficulties and problems for us to face as
we seek to establish a sound and vital interaction between
the two.
On the whole, however, the situation is much better in
recent years and we have good ground to expect a steady
movement toward the ultimate goal of unified witness.
LMCC leaders conference was held in February, 1963.
The theme was : " The Church's Ministry in the University"
on which different views were expressed by the delegates
from three major churches, namely, Anglican, Lutheran
and the United Church. The Anglican church last year
set up a Central Committee on Student Evangelism. The
delegates from the church, in reply to some questions as
to what they really aim at, explain their views as follows :
The Seikokai is no less interested in the common ministry
in the university. However, one ought to be very cautious
not to achieve the so-called unified SCM in terms of
" uniformity ". Particularly, if it implies that the unified
SCM should be identified with the Student Y's, it will
certainly lose an essential element as Church's ministry.
The church is the only body which takes the ultimate
responsibility of " ministry " in educational institutions.
70 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
Quite an opposite view was advocated by the Student
Evangelism Committee of the United Church. The Kyodan's
official stand is expressed in " The Basic Principle for
Student Evangelism", published by the committee in 1961.
It says that the student Christian movement should be
primarily a campus centered movement, not to be attached
to any particular denomination. The United Church will
not try to organize its own denominational student body
but make every effort to help develop student leadership on
campuses. The SCM should be operated as a voluntary
movement, the responsibility of which must be entrusted
with students and teachers. This does not necessarily mean
that the United Church identifies the existing organizations
(i. e. Student Y's) with the United SCM, but it means that
the Church should move forward to realize the unified SCM
organization on the basis of full participation of all the
existing student and church groups in this country.
It is anticipated that the SCM Strategy Committee which
was recently re-organized would become active in promoting
the movement to that direction this year.
Japan Christian Scholars Fellowship
The Japan Christian Scholars Fellowship which was in
preparation in the preceding year, (cf . The Japan Christian
Year Book, 1962, p.44ff.) was actually organized at the
opening conference held at Tozanso in August, 1962. Some
five hundred university teachers joined the association,
others have been added since then. The Fellowship is still
in the stage of organizing and studying the situation, but
its steady growth and contribution to the SCM is eagerly
anticipated.
Prof. Mikio Sumiya of Tokyo University was elected
Chairman of the Fellowship with whom ten other members
form the central committee. The Fellowship was divided
into several regional groups and also into three major
YOUTH MOVEMENT 71
sections according to the academic disciplines.
In 1964 WSCF will hold the Second Asian Conference on
the Life and Mission of the Church in Japan. It is expected
that the Japan Christian Scholars Fellowship will play an
important role in preparing the conference.
CHAPTER 8
WOMEN'S WORK
Kazuko Suzuki
The outstanding event in women's work in 1962 was par
ticipation in the Second Asian Church Women's Conference
sponsored by the East Asia Christian Conference. Sixty-nine
delegates from 14 Asian countries gathered under the theme,
"Launch Out into the Deep". The National Christian
Council nominated Miss Hana Kawai, Mrs. Toshiko Hayashi,
Mrs. Momo Ueshita, and Mrs. Masae Harada as the dele
gates from Japan.
Promotion of the Fellowship of the Least Coin was one
of several recommendations coming out of the conference.
It was suggested that the next conference be held in 1966,
Mrs. Masae Harada was appointed to be on a planning com
mittee member from Japan.
Many opportunities to report about the conference to
church women in Japan have stimulated the activities of
the Woman's Committee of the National Christian Council.
The Fellowship of the Least Coin was being given especially
deep consideration, and the Committee has agreed to re
commend it to each represented denomination.
Nation-wide observance of the World Day of Prayer on
an ecumenical basis, was sponsored by the Women's Com
mittee of the National Christian Council on the first Friday
of Lent. A contribution equivalent to $1,000 was given to
the Japan Christian Medical Association to be used toward
sending a Japanese public health nurse to a sanitarium in
India.
Although the Christian Home and Family Committee is
no longer under the jurisdiction of the Women's Committee,
WOMEN'S WORK 73
the close relationship of these two committees cannot be
overlooked. In fact, most of the Home and Family Life Com
mittee members are actually from the denominational wo
men's work departments. On July 16 to 18, at Nakakarui-
zawa, the Second Marriage and Family Summer seminar
was held, with about 90 people in attendance. It considered
the most serious problem of Christian young people and
parents today, " How can I meet a Christian mate?". The
NCC has felt the responsibility to strive toward satisfactory
solutions. In the new freedom enjoyed by women both in
the home and in society, Christian Women have a unique
opportunity to fulfill the responsibilities in the church.
Looking at programs of individual organizations the United
Church of Christ publishes the monthly magazine, Church
Women, with circulation of 6,000 copies. It also holds many
devotional and leadership training meetings on both national
and local levels in order to nurture Christian women in
their church life, thus giving the worker training for further
positive church activities.
Encouraging stewardship is another aspect of the activi
ties of the United Church. Women members thus contri
buted for domestic evangelism and for the Fellowship of
the Least Coin sponsored by the East Asia Christian Council.
In addition to the conventional programs centering on
housewives, the women's committee held many meet
ings for working women such as roundtable discussions,
lecture meetings and study meetings on such subjects as
religion and the working mother, the relationship between
church life and one's working place and Christians in the
places of work. The Women's Auxiliary Organization of
the Japan Anglican Episcopal Church has continued the
operation of the Bethany Home, an old people's home and
provision of a scholarship for women ministers.
When the Japan Baptist Union (JBU) was organized three
years ago, the first thing the women wanted to do as Baptists
74 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
was to strengthen their ties of fellowship not only in Japan
but also around the world. To accomplish this, they began
a monthly booklet called "Majiwari", meaning "Fellowship".
It includes Bible studies, Mission studies, articles about
Christian education, testimonies of women, a prayer list, and
news of the Baptist constituency. Sometimes it carries the
life stories of people who have given their lives for the
work of the church. Other times it carries greetings from
women leaders of other Asian countries.
Another area of emphasis on which the women put much
stress is " Mutual Aid " sometimes called "A Little Life from
the Kitchen Door ". Its purpose is to help Baptist pastors'
wives who need extra income at such times as when a
child is born, for birthdays, or in the case of illness or other
emergencies.
Eyes also have been focused upon the Asian Baptist
Women's Union Meeting in the Philippines in April 1963.
A two year campaign was carried on to give one yen daily
with love. If every woman fulfilled her pledge, five women
could be sent to the Philippines. The principals of the four
Baptist girls' schools promised to pay the expenses of four
more women, making a total of nine.
For the future, the women's hope is to make the local
church women's group strong, so that in every church it
will become an important element for extending the King
dom. Their plan is to be able to support the employment
of a full-time visiting secretary to guide and train women.
In the Japan Evangelical Lutheran Church, various women's
organizations are the center of the spiritual and material
life of the church. The work consists of Bible study meet
ings and various home meetings ; instruction in tea cere
mony, flower arrangement, cooking and handicrafts ; coope
ration with the Church Nursery and Mother's Association
and hospital visitation and washing and cleaning service
for social institutions.
CHAPTER 9
CHRISTIAN PUBLICATIONS IN JAPAN
Norie Akiyama
Activity of the publishing industry in Japan is so brisk
that the country ranks fairly high among all the countries
of the world in the annual number of newly published
books. The total number of items that were newly
published in 1962 amounted to approximately 12,000. In
this deluge of new books, however, Christian publication
composes only one or two waves. During the period from
April 1962 to March 1963 the items of new Christian
publications numbered only about 140 or slightly more than
one per cent of the aforementioned figure. This indicates
that Japan's Christian publication is encircled by many
difficult problems. Problems it faces particularly today may
fall into the following five categories :
1. Establishment of Christian journalism.
2. Necessity of making Christian publication business
financially independent.
3. Training of Christian journalists.
4. Cultivation of Christian authors (Particularly those of
a devotional type).
5. Establishment of distribution routes of Christian
publications.
Among these five problems, the fifth one was especially
dealt with in 1962 by the Scientific Research Institute of
Christian Publications which had been established by the
Japan Commission on Christian Literature of the National
Christian Council of Japan.
76 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
Scientific Research Institute of Christian Publications
The book distribution system in Japan differs greatly from
that in the United States. The normal procedure of distri
bution in Japan starts, of course, with publishers and is
then followed in succession by wholesalers, retailers and
readers. There are, however, only a few Christian publish
ing houses in Japan that can make use of this nation-wide
route for distributing their books. Most of Christian
publications are distributed through various but minor
channels such as specialized book stores, churches and
others, or directly from publishers to readers. Beside this
handicap, postage for mailing publications is extremely high
in Japan and it occasionally happens that domestic postage
costs more than postage for mailing abroad according to
circumstances, so that there is no Christian publishing house
that is not affected by this extra financial burden.
In order to cope with the urgent necessity to promote
smoother distribution of as many Christian books as possible,
the institute made a survey in 1962 of the following items :
( 1 ) the actual conditions of readers of Christian magazines,
( 2 ) what kinds of books and through what channels
churches buy, ( 3 ) what kinds of books and through what
channels Christian schools buy, (4) the actual conditions
of Christian book stores, and ( 5 ) how ordinary (or non-
Christian) book stores sell Christian books.
The results of this survey have been made public in
installments in the Interim Reports of the Survey on the
Distribution of Christian Books : the first in August 1962,
the second in December the same year and the third to be
published soon. Based on this survey an attempt is being
made to establish a firm distribution route of Christian
books.
The Bible and Hymnbooks
Christian publications in Japan can be roughly divided
CHRISTIAN PUBLICATIONS IN JAPAN 77
into three categories such as ( 1 ) the Bible, ( 2 )
hymnbooks, and ( 3 ) Christian books and magazines.
Published by the Japan Bible Society, the Bible has the
largest circulation among all books in Japan every year.
During the one year from November 1961 to October 1962
as many as 2,752,375 copies of the Bible were distributed.
Published by the Publishing Department of the United
Church of Christ in Japan (Kyodan), about one million
hymnbooks were sold from December 1954, when the revised
edition of the standard hymnbook was published, to 1962.
The annual total sales of Christian publications in Japan
amount to approximately ¥300 million, with roughly 30
per cent of them being the Bible, 20 per cent hymnbooks
and the rest Christian books and magazines.
Main New Books
According to a survey made by the magazine Kobun, 143
new Christian books were brought out from April 1962 to
March 1963, with a decrease of four items as compared
with the previous fiscal year. Of these, 36 books were
brought out by the Shinkyo-Shuppansha (Protestant Publish
ing Co.), 26 by the Publishing Department of the Kyodan,
21 by the Kyo Bun Kwan and four by the Seibunsha. Sixty
five per cent of all Christian books were published by these
four companies.
Following are the main books that have been newly
published or are now being planned :
1. Complete Collections and Selections
It was a characteristic of fiscal 1962 that every Christian
publishing house was active in planning new publishing
projects.
Kyo Bun Kwan: A Collection of Works of Kanzo Uchi-
mura, 25 volumes.
Kirisuto Shimbunsha: A Complete Collection of Works
of Toyohiko Kagawa, 24 volumes.
78 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
Shinkyo-Shuppansha : A Selection of Works of Bonho-
effer, nine volummes.
Seibunsha : A Collection of Works of Martin Luther, the
first collection with 12 volumes.
Hakusuisha : A Selection of Works of Soren Kierkegaard,
21 volumes.
Other series of books that are being published continuously
by the Shinkyo-Shuppansha include John Calvin's New
Testament Commentaries, John Calvin's Christian Institutes,
and A Collection of Works of John Wesley.
2. Studies on the Bible
An abundance of excellent Bible commentaries were
published in 1962.
Taishindo: Commentary of The Book of Jeremiah by
Masao Sekine.
Yamamoto Shoten: The Second Isaiah by Hiroki Naka-
zawa.
Shinkyo-Shuppansha: Commentarial Sermons on The
Letter of Paul to the Romans by Masaichi Takemori.
Shinkyo-Shuppansha : The Second Letter of Paul to the
Corinthians by Shogo Yamaya.
Jordan-ska: The First and Second Letters of Peter by
Harumi Ishii.
Seibunsha : The Letter of Paul to the Romans by Chitose
Kishi.
3. Theological Works
The " Men and Thoughts Series " by the Publishing
Department of the United Church of Christ include excellent
theses by young Japanese theologians :
Bultmann by Yoshinobu Kumazawa
Niebuhr by Kigen Ino
Thomas Aquinas by Toru Ingu
Brunner by Eiji Oki
Kanzo Uchimura by Akio Dohi
Main translation works include the following :
CHRISTIAN PUBLICATIONS IN JAPAN 79
Shinkyo-Shuppansha : Kurze Erklaring des Romerbriefes
by Karl Earth.
Shinkyo-Shuppansha : Einfiihrung in die Evangelische
Theologie by Karl Earth.
Shinkyo-Shuppansha: The Christian Understanding of
God by F. S. Ferre.
Publishing Dept. of Kyodan : The Parables of Jesus by
Hunter.
4. Introductory Books and Devotional Books
Publishing Dept. of Kyodan : Introduction to Preaching
by Takao Fujii.
Shinkyo-Shuppansha: Introduction to Ecclesiology by
Nobuo Watanabe.
Although published in a type of small pamphlets, these
two works are of theologically high standard and proper
guides to various problems which contemporary Japanese
churches face.
Among devotional books, the following three are recom-
mendable :
Kyo Bun Kwan: About the Meaning of Living by
Junichiro Sako.
Shinkyo-Shuppansha: Seeking for the New Image of
Human Being by Junichiro Sako.
Kyo Bun Kwan: The ABC of Christianity by Kikaku
Shimamura.
5. History and Education
The Chronological Table of Theology published in 1962
by the Japan Christian Academy and distributed by the
Kyo Bun Kwan is a valuable literary guide in the sense
that it outlines the postwar trends in Japanese theological
thoughts under several headings according to academic
fields.
Contemporary Japan and Christianity (Shinkyo-Shuppan
sha) and Japanese Capitalism and Christianity (Tokyo
University Press), both by Mikio Sumitani, are studies
80 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
based on the author's profound insights dealing with various
problems between Christianity and contemporary Japanese
society. The books are so good that they are worthy to
be introduced abroad.
Educational Theory and Christianity (Jordan-sha) by
Toraji Murakami is a full-fledged, basic thesis on Christian
educational theory.
Great Encyclopedia of Christianity projected and edited
by the Japan Commission on Christian Literature of the
National Christian Council is now being printed and is due
to be published by the Kyo Bun Kwan in July 1963.
Periodicals (Magazines)
Among several Christian magazines published in Japan
the best sellers are The Gospel and the World (Shinkyo-
Shuppansha), The Christ Monthly by the NCC's Japan
Commission on Christian Literature and The Gospel for
the Millions (Inochinokotoba-sha, The Word of Life Co.} ,
as they were in the previous year. Especially The Christ
Monthly magazine is favorably received because of the
special series it carries under the title of " Christians in
Life." A new home monthly magazine entitled Migiwa
was newly published in winter 1962 by the Migiwa Publish
ing House in Osaka.
CHAPTER 10
CHRISTIAN SOCIAL WORK
Shiro Abe
Christian social work is now standing at a turning point
and is confronted with three problems to solve.
First, how should Christian social work as a voluntary
private enterprise, fit into the overall welfare programs of
the nation for which the governmental responsibility has
become increasingly felt? And what should be its relation
ship to the Government?
Second, what role should it play in overall Christian
mission? And what theological implication does it have
and what should be its relationship with the church?
Third, what are the principles of Christian social work?
1. The Problem of Christian Social Work as a Voluntary
Enterprise
Social work in Japan has made development under the
predominant influence of the United States after the war.
In its directives destined to the Japanese Government the
U. S. Occupation Forces pointed out the following three
principles :
(1) Governmental responsibility for protection and relief.
(2) Separation of public and voluntary social work.
(3) Protection with non-discriminative equality.
In compliance with these principles the three fundamental
laws such as the Daily Life Security Law (1946) , the Child
Welfare Law (1947) and the Social Welfare Service Law
(1951) were successively enacted by the National Diet in
the immediate postwar years. As a result, the responsi
bilities of both the central and local governments as the
main promoters of social work were strengthened.
82 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
Financial resources supporting voluntary social work insti
tutions including many Christian social work institutions
already in prewar days were seldom available, and it was
really a decisive blow to social work institution in general
after the war that the zaibatsu, who had been quite reliable
financial supporters for voluntary social work in prewar
days, were completely disorganized. Besides, a further blow
to voluntary social work was the provision of Article
Eight of the postwar new Constitution that bans the
appropriation of public money to agencies which are not
under the control of public authority. This provision was
based upon the principle of separation of public and
voluntary social works. All voluntary social work agencies
fell into extreme financial difficulties.
In order to rescue voluntary social work from its financial
crisis, two measures were adopted. One was that the
Government commission gave part of its responsibility for
social work to private voluntary agencies to fulfill, and the
other was the community chest campaign.
As to the latter, because of the recent increase of social
work institutions and the increased distribution of collected
money for community organization programs, on the aver
age only about two per cent of the expenses for individual
Christian social work is covered by the community chest
campaign.
As to the former, the Social Welfare Service Law provides
that the Government can entrust the care of the client to
a voluntary agency to carry out the Government responsi
bility which guarantees the minimum standard of living.
This means that the agency is given a fixed amount of
money per client in lieu of the service performed directly
by the Government. More than 65 per cent of average
expenses for Christian social work originates in expenses
for delegated work, that is, a public expense. Financial
aids from overseas churches amount to about 3 per cent
CHRISTIAN SOCIAL WORK 83
of the total expenses. Once it receives funds for expenses
for delegated work from the Government, Christian social
work cannot reject governmental supervision and inspection.
Such supervision ranges from that of financial bookkeeping
to the administration and management of the work. Here
lies a close relationship between Christian social work and
the Government. In the case of social work in the United
States, it is generally insisted, in order to evade excessive
governmental control, that no more than 50 percent of the
expenses should be covered by public money. The per
centage of public money in Japanese social work in general,
however, is yearly on the increase, so that governmental
superintendence is gradually intensified.
The principle of " separation of public and voluntary
social works " means in Western Europe that on the premise
of cooperation between public and private parties, the
government protects and encourages voluntary social work
with due respect for it and without any intervention in it.
But in Japan, a fairly bureaucratic country, where de
mocracy has not yet reached a fully mature stage, " coope
ration between public and private parties" as the background
of separation of public and voluntary social works is not
yet fully adopted. But rather the principle of " separation
of public and voluntary social works" is confused with
that of public work's priority. The unique role of voluntary
social work is not justifiably recognized. Voluntary social
work, therefore, is gradually being reduced to something
like mere subcontracted work for the Government.
In spite of a large subsidy provided by the national
government for the majority of its expenses, voluntary
Christian social work in both Germany and France, for
instance, still maintains its complete independence and
enjoys absolute freedom of its management from govern
mental intervention. Besides, any voluntary social work
institution can select its inmates and give them religious
84 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
education on a free basis. But, how about the situation
in Japan ?
Under the present legal system, every Christian social
work institution, which is subsidized with public money,
cannot select its inmates, but is entrusted these people by
the Government. Besides, Christian social work institutions,
which are administered on the basis of the Daily Life
Security Law such as old people's homes, cannot force
their inmates to observe worship service. This means that
these Christian institutions " enjoy " the guardianship of the
laws at the sacrifice of its supposedly extensive original
freedom. Here lies a great difference between Christian
social work and Christian schools, because the latter are
free in selecting students and executing religious education.
As a matter of course, they are not subsidized with public
money.
Under such circumstances what kinds of characteristics
can Christian social work demonstrate ?
As to religious education at Christian social work insti
tutions, the Government seems not to enforce any strict
control at present. But, as it is regulated by the law,
every Christian social work institution must examine what
the law means and define its attitude toward this problem.
The Government has recently mapped out its policy to
encourage every voluntary social work to make itself a
social welfare corporation. In this connection, it is also
necessary for every Christian social work institution to
determine to what extent it will be restricted and supervised
by the Government after it becomes a social welfare
corporation.
In view of all these facts, Christian social work is no
longer an opportunity to preach the Gospel as it used to
be. Social work as a means of evangelism cannot exist
under the present social security system. What, then, is
the distinctiveness of Christian social work with an evange-

CHRISTIAN SOCIAL WORK 85
listic aspect ? What, then, is Christian social work itself?
2. The Position of Christian Social Work in Mission
In disagreement with the statement made by Reinhold
Niebuhr, " The Church is the mother of organized charity,"
one must say that the church in Japan occupies a com
pletely different phase. Historically speaking, social service
in Japan preceded the church, and there has not been close
contact between them. Most of Christian social work
institutions in Japan have been initiated by either missions,
individual Christians, or Christian groups, such as WCTU,
the Salvation Army, and the Kagawa group. Hardly a
single social work institution was established at the initiative
and on the responsibility of Christian churches. While in
Western countries, social work has been conducted as a
service activity of the church for this world, in Japan, on
the contrary, social work has rather taken a position to
serve the church. Based on the assumptions that the
church should be solely engaged in preaching the Gospel
and it is not the church's mission to do social work, the
church has rather demanded social work to help the church
by furthering proselytism.
Sought by both the church and the national government
to extend its cooperation to both of them, Christian social
work in Japan finds itself in a perplexing dilemma. While
society requires socialization of Christian social work, the
church blames it for secularization of Christian social work.
The problem for Christian social work, therefore, is to
socialize itself without making itself secularized. How,
then, will the church meet this difficult problem?
Unfortunately, there has not yet been worked out either
the theological or practical solution to this problem. How
ever, after the WCC's New Delhi Assembly in 1961, the
Christians' understanding of the concept of " diakonia "
(service) was rapidly deepened. The concept that the
86 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
church is kerygma and at the same time diakonia (H.
Kraemer), that is, diakonia is part of the mission of the
church, has widely spread throughout the world. Japan is
no exception. In Japan also, the church's social responsi
bility, in other words, its service for the community, was
extensively discussed in 1962. Reflecting upon its past
activities, the church examined various means to reform
itself into how it should be.
Holding a consultation on the subject of Christian service,
the Young People's Division of the National Christian
Council of Japan sought for the theological implications of
the concept of service. Various student movements, such as
YMCA, YWCA, and the Life and Mission of the Church,
showed a new tendency in their activities by concentrating
their discussions on the subject of service. The United
Church of Christ in Japan (Kyodan) held a consultation
under the title " Mission of the Church in the Rapid Social
Change" in Karuizawa with Dr. John C. Bennett as the
main lecturer. Consultations on the role of the churches in
social service were held in Bossey in June and in Germany
in July 1962. Miss Matsuko Watanabe of Japan YWCA
and the writer, Shiro Abe, attended these consultations
respectively on invitation of the WCC, the sponsoring
body.
On the part of Christian social work in Japan, the
Christian Social Welfare Academy, an interdenominational
organization consisting of social workers and Christian
scholars belonging to various Christian groups including
the United Church of Christ, Lutheran Church, Baptist
Church, Anglican Episcopal Church, Friends Society, Sal
vation Army, Non-Church Movement, etc., held a conference
in October 1962 and considered the principles of Christian
social work. In May the same year, a joint-conference
under the auspices of the Japan Church World Service of
Christian workers in public social work agencies and
CHRISTIAN SOCIAL WORK 87
workers in Christian social work agencies was held. At
this conference, emphasis was placed in discussions on
mutual cooperation. Worthy of special mention is the fact
that the Japan Christian Social Work League has clearly
mapped out its attitude under the slogan, " Return to the
Church." In accordance with this basic attitude, the league
decided to make some amendments in its Constitution at
its general convention in May. As a result of these
amendments, it was newly defined in the Constitution that
(1) institutions which can be qualified to join the League
must be based upon Christian principles ; (2) the repre
sentatives and superintendents of the directors' boards of
such institutions must be either ministers or laymen
belonging to the United Church of Christ ; and (3) more
than half of the directors of such institutions must be
either ministers or laymen belonging to the United Church
of Christ.
In view of the conventional estranged relationship between
the United Church of Christ and social work, this decision
was really an epoch-making event. Then for the first
time it was made possible for social work to make a step
forward to participate in the mission of the United Church
from a comprehensive standpoint. The problem is that in
what manner the United Church should accept and support
social work, as a service activity of the church, which has
decided to " return to the church." Although the United
Church, at its general conference in November 1962,
examined how to extend its assistance to church-related
day-care centers, it has not been decided yet that the
United Church would accept in its structure the 71 organi
zations belonging to the Japan Christian Social Work
League. In comparison with the United Church, there
exists a closer relationship between the church and social
work in the cases of the Anglican Episcopal Church,
Lutheran Church, and Baptist Church. Generally speaking,
88 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
however, it is urgent for every denomination to study more
about the authentic attitude it should assume toward social
work and, at the same time, the position social work should
take in the whole setup of Christian mission, so that more
amicable talks may be conducted between the church and
social work.
3. The Roles of Christian Social Work
Under the present social security system, Christian social
work is given two roles to carry out. One is to prepare
the way" for the completion of social security and the
other is to " watch " whether the human rights are
adequately defended and social welfare is promoted.
Christian social work has to carry such a double but an
antinomic character.
Then how can Christian social work perform these
conflicting principles ?
The fact that Christian social work is given such a
pioneering and experimental role as to prepare the way
for the completion of social security is an indication that
it has been highly estimated in Japan for its contribution
to society. Great contributions made by Miss Mildred A.
Paine of IBC, who went back to her motherland for retire
ment in 1962, in the field of settlement work, and Miss
Annie P. Powlas of ULCA in the field of child welfare are
good examples of this fact. The outstanding achievements
by these two persons are now bearing great fruits at both
the Aikei-Gakuen in Tokyo and the Children's Paradise in
Chiba. Another example is that the 100 social service
leaders who have been recently selected by the Social
Welfare Press include as many as 30 Christians. (Despite
this fact, Christian social service facilities account for only
about 4.4 per cent of all similar facilities in Japan).
Christian social work carried out the following various
pioneering and experimental roles in several fields in 1962 :
CHRISTIAN SOCIAL WORK 89
(1) In the field of work for children's homes, some
Christian group in the Kansai area set out a family system
cottage. Even though still at an experimental stage, this
is an attempt to bring up unfortunate children, such as
orphans and children of broken homes, at a tiny family-
system home which has been established on the basis of
the outstanding achievements of the Bott Memorial Home
and is well integrated with the community. This new
method has also been adopted at the Shizuoka Home.
(2) As a prostitute rehabilitation program, the German
Mennonite Mission started wrork in Chiba through deacon
esses belonging to the Izumi Ryo and set out to construct
a colony. This is also the first attempt of its kind in
Japan.
(3) In the field of service for old people, both the
Kamakura Hoikuen and the Sanikukai in Tokyo are attract
ing public attention by attempting to construct old people's
homes with medical care.
(4) The Seiwa settlement and the Shikanjima Settlement
in Osaka, and the Kobokan and the Airinkan in Tokyo are
making efforts in experimenting along the new direction
the settlement movement should take at newly converted
houses respectively.
(5) Kinugawa Hospital in Yokosuka, which was reduced
to ashes in 1960, has been reconstructed and the Hakuaikai
Hospital in Okayama, with a newly added extension building,
is contributing to the community as a welfare hospital.
(6) The Japan Church World Service's Agape Vocational
Center for the Physically Handicapped is now widely reputed
as a successful example of a vocational training center for
the physically-handicapped and even as an industrial
enterprise.
Another role of Christian social work as a " watchman "
of social security becomes more and more difficult to achieve
when it receives public subsidies and comes under stronger
90 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
public restraint. In order to carry out its prophetic role,
Christian social work has to maintain, first of all, its
complete freedom and independence. It becomes possible
for Christian social work to establish its absolute inde
pendence only by adhering closely to the church. This
does not mean that to what extent the church would extend
financial assistance to social work. It means that the
church must become the ecclesia as mother which calls
people to send out to the work of diakonia (Luke 9 : 1-2) .
It is necessary for the church to equip God's people for
work in his service (Ephesians 4:12), In other words,
what things decide the way social work should be as a
service activity of the church are the answers the church
gives to these : 1. what responsibility the church will take for
social work and 2. what it will speak. The church will be
able to practice its prophetic role when it becomes a saving
church for this world and takes its responsibility for its
neighbors.
The relationship of Christian social work with the Govern
ment must be established on the proper understanding of
Christian social work as part of the church's mission.
Whether it is possible for Christian social work, which is
being gradually socialized, to build up the body of Christ,
while maintaining its independence and performing its roles
as both supporter and criticizer of the social security
system, will be decided by the church's attitude toward
this world. Only by making itself a saving church, will
the church be able to create and support a new form of
service to meet the need of society.

ECUMENICAL MOVEMENT AND OVERSEAS
EVANGELIZATION ACTIVITIES
Chuzo Yamada
1. General
The ecumenical movement in Japan was given a great
stimulus by the Third WCC General Assembly held in New
Delhi, India. It is significant that Christian leaders from
all over the world met in India, the birthplace of Buddhism
and Hinduism. Meeting in a spirit of prayer and Christian
testimony, they discussed what should be done in the present
age in order to realize the oneness in Christ of all nations,
races and colors. Not only the persons attending the
Assembly but also the entire Christian community in Japan
were inspired with a new vision.
Many of the leaders of ecumenical movement, who
attended the Assembly in New Delhi, visited Japan on their
way to India or home from India, and talked with Japanese
Christians, providing a great encouragement to the Christians
of this country.
The Second Vatican Council of the Roman Catholic Church
was held at nearly the same time as WCC General Assembly.
Although Japanese Protestants did not send observers to
the Vatican Council, it ushered in a new period of close,
if not formal, fellowship and coordination between the
Roman Catholic Church and Protestant Church in many
parts of Japan. Following are some new developments in
this area :
(1) Japan Faith and Order Study Group: On February
18, 1962, the first study meeting of Kanto Group was
organized under the auspices of Mr. Chitose Kishi, Rev.
92 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
Kazo Kitamori, and Dr. Goro Maeda, who are members
of Central Committee, WCC Faith and Order Commission,
calling for the participation of theologians and pastors
affiliated with NCC, and also of the churches outside NCC.
On February 11, 1963, the above Kanto Group was merged
with Kansai Faith and Order Study Group into Japan Faith
and Order Study Group, to conduct a comprehensive study
activities under the chairmanship of Mr. Chitose Kishi and
Dr. Masatoshi Doi. The Kansai Faith and Order Study
Group, consisting of theologians of Doshisha University,
Kansai Gakuin University, etc., as well as pastors and
missionaries living in Kansai Area, had been working very
actively since before the merger.
In anticipation of General Assembly to be held in
Montreal, Canada, in summer of 1963, research reports in
English have been submitted to WCC.
The Japan Faith and Order Study Group is composed of
scholars and clergy of The United Church of Christ in
Japan, Anglican Episcopal Church of Japan, Japan Evan
gelical Lutheran Church, Japan Baptist Convention, Japan
Baptist Union, Greek Orthodox Church, Nihon Kirisuto
Kyokai, and Non-Church Group.
(2) Protestant-Catholic Joint Study Group : The ecumeni
cal movement and the 2nd Vatican Council have fostered
the conciliatory atmosphere between Protestantism and
Roman Catholicism, paving the way for the start of this
study group.
The center of the movement in Eastern Japan is Tokyo,
where theologians and some missionaries, led by Dr.
Chitose Kishi, Dr. Kazo Kitamori, etc., on the Protestant
side, and the Right Rev. Joseph J. Spae, Director of Oriens
Institute for Religious Research, and some clergymen, on
the Catholic side, are jointly conducting Bible study and
frank discussion of the differences between Protestantism
and Catholicism.
ECUMENICAL MOVEMENT 93
Kyoto leads the movement in Western Japan (Kansai
Area), where Protestant and Catholic leaders frequently
meet together, reviving the fellowship long interrupted since
Luther's Reformation.
(3) The week of Prayer for Christian Unity : Fervent
appeal to pray for the unity of Christians was sent out to
the churches throughout Japan. This appeal was printed
in the organs of many churches including, naturally,
" Kyocho Jiho " of NCC.
The standing committee of NCC on November 27, 1962,
approved the suggestion to distribute posters made by
Catholic Christians among the member churches of NCC,
if desired.
The Right Rev. Spae, Director of Oriens Institute for
Religious Research, attended this committee meeting and
delivered a speech of greeting. This was the first time
that a representative of the Roman Catholic Church ever
attended the formal meeting of the NCC.
These developments may be regarded as symptoms of
an ecumenical tendency which is becoming more and more
apparent, even if informal, among the Protestants and
Catholics.
2. Overseas Evangelization Activities
Before the war, when Japan was intent on conquest and
colonization of Korea, Formosa, Manchuria and China, many
Japanese evangelists were stationed in the latter areas,
mainly in order to preach the gospel to the overseas
Japanese.
Japan lost vast territory through World War II and in
consequence all Japanese were shut out from the rest of
Asia. For some years 'Japanese churches were too busy
with their own reconstruction to turn their eye to overseas
evangelization.
Recently, however, Japanese Christians have awakened to
94 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
the fact that world evangelization is the primary mission
of all Christians, and have resolved to make their contri
bution to this common task. Although the evangelization
work by Japanese missionaries is still not on a large-scale,
it is achieving splendid results.
(1) The Overseas Evangelization Committee of The
United Church of Christ in Japan: Formally started as
a special committee for overseas evangelization at the 9th
General Assembly of The United Church of Christ in Japan
in the autumn of 1956, the committee has the main object
of dispatching evangelists and pastors abroad to preach
the gospel to overseas Japanese, some of whom are already
grandchildren of the first Japanese emigrants. The status
of this committee was raised to that of standing committee
at the llth General Assembly in 1960.
At present 14 pastors and theological teachers are
dispatched to the following 8 countries : Brazil, Bolivia, the
U.S.A., Canada, Formosa, Okinawa, Thailand, and West
Germany.
One Okinawan and one West Papuan are now receiving
training by the Kyodan to become workers for Christ. The
budget for 1963 amounts to ¥1,800,000, which is provided
for by offerings.
(2) The Japan Christian Medical Association : This is a
supra-denominational organization affiliated with NCC. It
was organized in 1949 by Christian doctors and nurses, so
as to extend medical aid to the peoples of Southeast Asia
where both doctors and medical supplies are extremely
scarce. This Good Samaritanism dates back to the time
of World War II, when The Japan Christian Medical
Association, in cooperation with Japan YMCA, sent a
medical service team to war-torn China. The association
reopened its medical aid mission to Japan's neighboring
countries after the war.
At present, the association is stationing doctors in
ECUMENICAL MOVEMENT 95
Indonesia and Formosa ; and doctors and nurses in Nepal.
Moreover, it invites one or two medical students each
year from the Philippines, Burma, Formosa and Korea for
practical training and study at universities and hospitals.
(3) Japanese Evangelical Overseas Mission: This also
is a supra-denominational organization, although the
nucleus is formed by pastors and interested laymen of the
former Holiness Church. Founded in 1956, it sent itinerary
evangelists to Formosa, the PI, Australia and New Zealand.
The biggest enterprise was the dispatching of a 14-
member evangelistic team to Formosa in August-September,
1962. Team members visited churches all over Formosa,
even small Christian communities in out-of-the-way places.
Most of the members were pastors of Japan Evangelical
Alliance, although some were NCC pastors.
The guiding principles of this mission are (1) to believe
in the Bible as the infallible Word of God, and to keep the
commendments of the Bible, (2) to be a supra-denomi
national organization, and (3) to be a faith mission guided
by a subjective faith depending solely on God.
Besides these, the Society of Friends of Schweitzer in
Japan, a Christian organization with national popularity, is
actively supporting the cause of Dr. Albert Schweitzer, who
has spent half a century in Africa for medical evangelization.
The association for helping lepers of India was founded
with the appeal : " hospitals to the lepers of India ". NCC
church schools, with the cooperation of Church Schools-
Nursery Union and the Education Association of Christian
Schools in Japan, collected the offering of ¥2,400,000 for
this purpose in the campaign week.

CHAPTER 12
THE ANGLICAN EPISCOPAL CHURCH
The one year from April 1962 to March 1963 will be
remembered as the most important years in the history of
the Anglican Episcopal Church in Japan. The Church
celebrated the centenary of its mission in Japan in April
1959.
Now, in the fourth year of the second century of its
mission and the 18th year of the postwar era, the Church
appears to be entering a new era.
Signs of the new era can obviously be seen in the follow
ing events :
First, young and competent ministers are now being
promoted to the Church's bishop rank.
It was three years ago that Bishop Goto was appointed
as the head of the Tokyo diocese. In September 1962, the
Kyoto diocese welcomed the Rt. Rev. Yuzuru Mori the
former president of the Episcopal Theological Seminary in
Tokyo as its new bishop. In the Osaka diocese, after the
Rt. Rev. Teijiro Yanagihara retired in December 1962, the
Rev. Toshio Koike, pastor of Ashiya Church, was elected
to be the new bishop in February 1963. The fact that
these three important dioceses now have bishops younger
than 50 years of age is a propitious sign for the Church's
future. High hopes are placed in these bishops for their
vigorous activity at least for the coming ten years.
Second, several important decisions were made at the
27th annual convention held in Osaka in May, 1962. All
these long-awaited decisions are now being realized one
THE ANGLICAN EPISCOPAL CHURCH 97
after another. Although many people may feel it is too
late for the Church to undertake these decisions now, once
they are put in action, high expectation must be entertained
by all the members of the church.
Following are the most important of these decisions :
(1) The Liaison Committee:
All liaison business such as relations with the mother
church, the NCC, the WCC, the Christian Federation, etc.
were determined to be handled by this committee under
the supervision of the church's General Affairs Bureau.
Since all subsidies remitted from the overseas churches
must be passed through it, the committee's position in the
Church must be said to be very important. The chairman
is Bishop Goto.
(2) The Publication Department:
Though it is belated, the church now decided to create
its own publication department in order to start positive
publication activities with high ideals and long-range plans.
Publications not only of prayer books and hymnals but also
Episcopal theological books, religious books for laymen and
evangelistic literature for the general public, which have
been rarely introduced so far, are now listed on the
publication schedule. Many theological books written by
outstanding authors, most of which would be translated
from foreign original warks for the time being, will be
favorably accepted not only by Episcopalians but also by
many people of other Protestant denominations. A satellite
organ of the Church's Literature Bureau, the department
enjoys a wide range of free activity. Its head is the Rev.
Katsuhiko Iwai.
(3) The Central Committee on Student Movement:
This Committee is in charge of liaison and cooperation
with all student activities at the church-related universities
as well as at other universities and institutions for students
such as student centers. The committee will also try to
98 CHURCH
conduct research in student movements and, if possible,
unify them. The ultimate goal of the committee is to
enlarge its activities to a nation-wide scale. Liaison with
Christian student movements conducted outside the Church
will also be included in its activities. The committee's
activities are performed under the supervision of the
Church's Evangelism Bureau and its chairman is Bishop
Goto. Because the Christian student movement in general
tends to isolate itself from the church, student movements
firmly placed within the range of church activities and
combined efforts of such Christian student bodies will assume
a very significant position for the cause of ecumenism.
(4) Establishment of Age-limit System :
Age-limits for the retirement of ministers were de
termined, namely 75 years of age for bishops and 72 years
of age for priests.
The system will be enforced in connection with the
Church's pension fund. ; The monthly amount of the pension
was increased from 7,000 yen to 10,000 yen.
Among other decisions made at the annual convention
were the establishment of the Study Committee for Con
solidating Evangelistic Efforts and of the Study Committee
on Ecumenism. In preparation for the interdenominational
Conference on Faith and Order to be held in Montreal,
Canada, in this July, study meetings were held on the NCC
level both in Tokyo and in Kyoto, and reports were
prepared by each respective group. Representing the
Church, the Rev. R. J. Hammer in Tokyo and the Rev.
Toshio Kochi in Kyoto participated in these meetings.
Problems now confronting the church can be divided into
two categories : One is how to strengthen each individual
church and the other is how to break through the very
narrow but stubborn wall of urban middle-class intellectuals
for the sake of evangelism. Even according to the latest
statistics, the church has only 10 diocean bishops, 262
THE ANGLICAN EPISCOPAL CHURCH 99
priests, 17 deans, 35 missionary priests, 44,135 laymen, 257
churches, and 91 preaching stations. There are a number
of churches which witnessed no substantial increase of
members since their founding from 30 to 40 years ago.
Churches with a membership from 100 to 199 number 53,
those with 200 to 299 members 27, and those with more
than 300 members 14. Even among such a narrow social
stratum as urban intellectuals, the church has not yet
gained a stable position. There are numerous opportunities
for the church to penetrate into this social stratum with
evangelical messages.
There seem to be two schools of thought within the
Church concerning evangelistic approaches. One school
advocates concentration of evangelistic efforts upon pene
tration primarily into this social stratum so as to increase
the average number of members at every church to 300.
Evangelistic efforts toward industry and rural areas, this
school argues, can be performed even afterward.
The other school insists that the church immediately has
to address itself to all social strata utilizing all available
resources worked out with fresh ideas.
Each school has good reasons for its belief as well as
difficulties in its position. At any rate, these are some new
activities which have been started recently.
(1) The establishment of the Japan Institute of Christian
Education (JICE) at St. Paul University:
Established in September 1962, it is not a mere educational
institute in a Christian university. Although it was formally
established last year, substantial activities were already
begun in 1959, and it has thus exerted a considerable effect
not only on the Episcopal body but on all Christendom in
Japan.
The institute is under the strong influence of and largely
aided by Dr. D. R. Hunter, Director of the Education Bureau
of the Episcopal "Church in America. Its guiding principle
100 CHURCH
is the so-called " Group Dynamics," which is based upon
the theory that all groups (the church is also one of such
groups that include all kinds of secular groups), when
properly organized, can exhibit their inherent dynamic
forces. And " Group Dynamic " is a type of education
through which people are to be organized into a well-formed
group through experiments. It is said that those who
participate in such experiments certainly undergo changes.
Degrees of such changes vary according to individuals.
Applications of such experiments cover a wide range, where
any types of groups exist, including individual churches, in
dustrial societies, and management-labor relations. Problems
confronting individual churches and such questions as the
church's approach to industrial society, for example, can
be practically dealt with by this method.
The institute is a center of such experimental studies and
ready to extend its effort widely even toward overseas
churches in Asia. The directors of the institute are the
Rev. Dr. R. A. Merritt and the Rev. Dr. H. Yanagihara.
(2) Experiment by means of the Yokkaichi St. Andreiv
Center:
This is a kind of bold attempt to bring forth a revolution
in the general concept of church buildings in Japan — what
stereotyped, shabby structures they are ! The attempt is
based on the insight that it will be possible for the church
to attract all strata of people to itself, ranging from city
mayors, high officials of municipal governments and in
dustrial entrepreneurs to laborers, students, intellectuals,
merchants, working girls, and housewives, if it breaks
down the wall that it has built by itselt against outsiders,
by creating churches through imaginative architecture.
The center building of vivid blue color stands just beside
the main street of Yokkaichi City, a booming industrial
town. It accommodates in its main floor an attractive
coffee bar into which anyone would like to step, a chapel
CHRISTIAN SOCIAL WORK 85
listic aspect ? What, then, is Christian social work itself?
2. The Position of Christian Social Work in Mission
In disagreement with the statement made by Reinhold
Niebuhr, " The Church is the mother of organized charity,"
one must say that the church in Japan occupies a com
pletely different phase. Historically speaking, social service
in Japan preceded the church, and there has not been close
contact between them. Most of Christian social work
institutions in Japan have been initiated by either missions,
individual Christians, or Christian groups, such as WCTU,
the Salvation Army, and the Kagawa group. Hardly a
single social work institution was established at the initiative
and on the responsibility of Christian churches. While in
Western countries, social work has been conducted as a
service activity of the church for this world, in Japan, on
the contrary, social work has rather taken a position to
serve the church. Based on the assumptions that the
church should be solely engaged in preaching the Gospel
and it is not the church's mission to do social work, the
church has rather demanded social work to help the church
by furthering proselytism.
Sought by both the church and the national government
to extend its cooperation to both of them, Christian social
work in Japan finds itself in a perplexing dilemma. While
society requires socialization of Christian social work, the
church blames it for secularization of Christian social work.
The problem for Christian social work, therefore, is to
socialize itself without making itself secularized. How,
then, will the church meet this difficult problem?
Unfortunately, there has not yet been worked out either
the theological or practical solution to this problem. How
ever, after the WCC's New Delhi Assembly in 1961, the
Christians' understanding of the concept of " diakonia "
(service) was rapidly deepened. The concept that the
86 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
church is kerygma and at the same time diakonia (H.
Kraemer), that is, diakonia is part of the mission of the
church, has widely spread throughout the world. Japan is
no exception. In Japan also, the church's social responsi
bility, in other words, its service for the community, was
extensively discussed in 1962. Reflecting upon its past
activities, the church examined various means to reform
itself into how it should be.
Holding a consultation on the subject of Christian service,
the Young People's Division of the National Christian
Council of Japan sought for the theological implications of
the concept of service. Various student movements, such as
YMCA, YWCA, and the Life and Mission of the Church,
showed a new tendency in their activities by concentrating
their discussions on the subject of service. The United
Church of Christ in Japan (Kyodan) held a consultation
under the title " Mission of the Church in the Rapid Social
Change" in Karuizawa with Dr. John C. Bennett as the
main lecturer. Consultations on the role of the churches in
social service were held in Bossey in June and in Germany
in July 1962. Miss Matsuko Watanabe of Japan YWCA
and the writer, Shiro Abe, attended these consultations
respectively on invitation of the WCC, the sponsoring
body.
On the part of Christian social work in Japan, the
Christian Social Welfare Academy, an interdenominational
organization consisting of social workers and Christian
scholars belonging to various Christian groups including
the United Church of Christ, Lutheran Church, Baptist
Church, Anglican Episcopal Church, Friends Society, Sal
vation Army, Non- Church Movement, etc., held a conference
in October 1962 and considered the principles of Christian
social work. In May the same year, a joint-conference
under the auspices of the Japan Church World Service of
Christian workers in public social work agencies and
CHRISTIAN SOCIAL WORK 87
workers in Christian social work agencies was held. At
this conference, emphasis was placed in discussions on
mutual cooperation. Worthy of special mention is the fact
that the Japan Christian Social Work League has clearly
mapped out its attitude under the slogan, " Return to the
Church." In accordance with this basic attitude, the league
decided to make some amendments in its Constitution at
its general convention in May. As a result of these
amendments, it was newly denned in the Constitution that
(1) institutions which can be qualified to join the League
must be based upon Christian principles ; (2) the repre
sentatives and superintendents of the directors' boards of
such institutions must be either ministers or laymen
belonging to the United Church of Christ ; and (3) more
than half of the directors of such institutions must be
either ministers or laymen belonging to the United Church
of Christ.
In view of the conventional estranged relationship between
the United Church of Christ and social work, this decision
was really an epoch-making event. Then for the first
time it was made possible for social work to make a step
forward to participate in the mission of the United Church
from a comprehensive standpoint. The problem is that in
what manner the United Church should accept and support
social work, as a service activity of the church, which has
decided to " return to the church." Although the United
Church, at its general conference in November 1962,
examined how to extend its assistance to church-related
day-care centers, it has not been decided yet that the
United Church would accept in its structure the 71 organi
zations belonging to the Japan Christian Social Work
League. In comparison with the United Church, there
exists a closer relationship between the church and social
work in the cases of the Anglican Episcopal Church,
Lutheran Church, and Baptist Church. Generally speaking,
88 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
however, it is urgent for every denomination to study more
about the authentic attitude it should assume toward social
work and, at the same time, the position social work should
take in the whole setup of Christian mission, so that more
amicable talks may be conducted between the church and
social work.
3. The Roles of Christian Social Work
Under the present social security system, Christian social
work is given two roles to carry out. One is to " prepare
the way " for the completion of social security and the
other is to " watch " whether the human rights are
adequately defended and social welfare is promoted.
Christian social work has to carry such a double but an
antinomic character.
Then how can Christian social work perform these
conflicting principles ?
The fact that Christian social work is given such a
pioneering and experimental role as to prepare the way
for the completion of social security is an indication that
it has been highly estimated in Japan for its contribution
to society. Great contributions made by Miss Mildred A.
Paine of IBC, who went back to her motherland for retire
ment in 1962, in the field of settlement work, and Miss
Annie P. Powlas of ULCA in the field of child welfare are
good examples of this fact. The outstanding achievements
by these two persons are now bearing great fruits at both
the Aikei-Gakuen in Tokyo and the Children's Paradise in
Chiba. Another example is that the 100 social service
leaders who have been recently selected by the Social
Welfare Press include as many as 30 Christians. (Despite
this fact, Christian social service facilities account for only
about 4.4 per cent of all similar facilities in Japan).
Christian social work carried out the following various
pioneering and experimental roles in several fields in 1962 :
CHRISTIAN SOCIAL WORK 89
(1) In the field of work for children's homes, some
Christian group in the Kansai area set out a family system
cottage. Even though still at an experimental stage, this
is an attempt to bring up unfortunate children, such as
orphans and children of broken homes, at a tiny family-
system home which has been established on the basis of
the outstanding achievements of the Bott Memorial Home
and is well integrated with the community. This new
method has also been adopted at the Shizuoka Home.
(2) As a prostitute rehabilitation program, the German
Mennonite Mission started work in Chiba through deacon
esses belonging to the Izumi Ryo and set out to construct
a colony. This is also the first attempt of its kind in
Japan.
(3) In the field of service for old people, both the
Kamakura Hoikuen and the Sanikukai in Tokyo are attract
ing public attention by attempting to construct old people's
homes with medical care.
(4) The Seiwa settlement and the Shikanjima Settlement
in Osaka, and the Kobokan and the Airinkan in Tokyo are
making efforts in experimenting along the new direction
the settlement movement should take at newly converted
houses respectively.
(5) Kinugawa Hospital in Yokosuka, which was reduced
to ashes in 1960, has been reconstructed and the Hakuaikai
Hospital in Okayama, with a newly added extension building,
is contributing to the community as a welfare hospital.
(6) The Japan Church World Service's Agape Vocational
Center for the Physically Handicapped is now widely reputed
as a successful example of a vocational training center for
the physically-handicapped and even as an industrial
enterprise. „
Another role of Christian social work as a " watchman
of social security becomes more and more difficult to achieve
when it receives public subsidies and comes under stronger
90 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
public restraint. In order to carry out its prophetic role,
Christian social work has to maintain, first of all, its
complete freedom and independence. It becomes possible
for Christian social work to establish its absolute inde
pendence only by adhering closely to the church. This
does not mean that to what extent the church would extend
financial assistance to social work. It means that the
church must become the ecclesia as mother which calls
people to send out to the work of diakonia (Luke 9:1-2).
It is necessary for the church to equip God's people for
work in his service (Ephesians 4:12), In other words,
what things decide the way social work should be as a
service activity of the church are the answers the church
gives to these : 1. what responsibility the church will take for
social work and 2. what it will speak. The church will be
able to practice its prophetic role when it becomes a saving
church for this world and takes its responsibility for its
neighbors.
The relationship of Christian social work with the Govern
ment must be established on the proper understanding of
Christian social work as part of the church's mission.
Whether it is possible for Christian social work, which is
being gradually socialized, to build up the body of Christ,
while maintaining its independence and performing its roles
as both supporter and criticizer of the social security
system, will be decided by the church's attitude toward
this world. Only by making itself a saving church, will
the church be able to create and support a new form of
service to meet the need of society.
CHAPTER 11
ECUMENICAL MOVEMENT AND OVERSEAS
EVANGELIZATION ACTIVITIES
Chuzo Yamada
1. General
The ecumenical movement in Japan was given a great
stimulus by the Third WCC General Assembly held in New
Delhi, India. It is significant that Christian leaders from
all over the world met in India, the birthplace of Buddhism
and Hinduism. Meeting in a spirit of prayer and Christian
testimony, they discussed what should be done in the present
age in order to realize the oneness in Christ of all nations,
races and colors. Not only the persons attending the
Assembly but also the entire Christian community in Japan
were inspired with a new vision.
Many of the leaders of ecumenical movement, who
attended the Assembly in New Delhi, visited Japan on their
way to India or home from India, and talked with Japanese
Christians, providing a great encouragement to the Christians
of this country.
The Second Vatican Council of the Roman Catholic Church
was held at nearly the same time as WCC General Assembly.
Although Japanese Protestants did not send observers to
the Vatican Council, it ushered in a new period of close,
if not formal, fellowship and coordination between the
Roman Catholic Church and Protestant Church in many
parts of Japan. Following are some new developments in
this area :
(1) Japan Faith and Order Study Group: On February
18, 1962, the first study meeting of Kanto Group was
organized under the auspices of Mr. Chitose Kishi, Rev.
92 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
Kazo Kitamori, and Dr. Goro Maeda, who are members
of Central Committee, WCC Faith and Order Commission,
calling for the participation of theologians and pastors
affiliated with NCC, and also of the churches outside NCC.
On February 11, 1963, the above Kanto Group was merged
with Kansai Faith and Order Study Group into Japan Faith
and Order Study Group, to conduct a comprehensive study
activities under the chairmanship of Mr. Chitose Kishi and
Dr. Masatoshi Doi. The Kansai Faith and Order Study
Group, consisting of theologians of Doshisha University,
Kansai Gakuin University, etc., as well as pastors and
missionaries living in Kansai Area, had been working very
actively since before the merger.
In anticipation of General Assembly to be held in
Montreal, Canada, in summer of 1963, research reports in
English have been submitted to WCC.
The Japan Faith and Order Study Group is composed of
scholars and clergy of The United Church of Christ in
Japan, Anglican Episcopal Church of Japan, Japan Evan
gelical Lutheran Church, Japan Baptist Convention, Japan
Baptist Union, Greek Orthodox Church, Nihon Kirisuto
Kyokai, and Non -Church Group.
(2) Protestant-Catholic Joint Study Group : The ecumeni
cal movement and the 2nd Vatican Council have fostered
the conciliatory atmosphere between Protestantism and
Roman Catholicism, paving the way for the start of this
study group.
The center of the movement in Eastern Japan is Tokyo,
where theologians and some missionaries, led by Dr.
Chitose Kishi, Dr. Kazo Kitamori, etc., on the Protestant
side, and the Right Rev. Joseph J. Spae, Director of Oriens
Institute for Religious Research, and some clergymen, on
the Catholic side, are jointly conducting Bible study and
frank discussion of the differences between Protestantism
and Catholicism.
ECUMENICAL MOVEMENT 93
Kyoto leads the movement in Western Japan (Kansai
Area), where Protestant and Catholic leaders frequently
meet together, reviving the fellowship long interrupted since
Luther's Reformation.
(3) The week of Prayer for Christian Unity : Fervent
appeal to pray for the unity of Christians was sent out to
the churches throughout Japan. This appeal was printed
in the organs of many churches including, naturally,
" Kyocho Jiho " of NCC.
The standing committee of NCC on November 27, 1962,
approved the suggestion to distribute posters made by
Catholic Christians among the member churches of NCC,
if desired.
The Right Rev. Spae, Director of Oriens Institute for
Religious Research, attended this committee meeting and
delivered a speech of greeting. This was the first time
that a representative of the Roman Catholic Church ever
attended the formal meeting of the NCC.
These developments may be regarded as symptoms of
an ecumenical tendency which is becoming more and more
apparent, even if informal, among the Protestants and
Catholics.
2. Overseas Evangelization Activities
Before the war, when Japan was intent on conquest and
colonization of Korea, Formosa, Manchuria and China, many
Japanese evangelists were stationed in the latter areas,
mainly in order to preach the gospel to the overseas
Japanese.
Japan lost vast territory through World War II and in
consequence all Japanese were shut out from the rest of
Asia. For some years ^Japanese churches were too busy
with their own reconstruction to turn their eye to overseas
evangelization.
Recently, however, Japanese Christians have awakened to
94 THE CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT
the fact that world evangelization is the primary mission
of all Christians, and have resolved to make their contri
bution to this common task. Although the evangelization
work by Japanese missionaries is still not on a large-scale,
it is achieving splendid results.
(1) The Overseas Evangelization Committee of The
United Church of Christ in Japan: Formally started as
a special committee for overseas evangelization at the 9th
General Assembly of The United Church of Christ in Japan
in the autumn of 1956, the committee has the main object
of dispatching evangelists and pastors abroad to preach
the gospel to overseas Japanese, some of whom are already
grandchildren of the first Japanese emigrants. The status
of this committee was raised to that of standing committee
at the llth General Assembly in 1960.
At present 14 pastors and theological teachers are
dispatched to the following 8 countries : Brazil, Bolivia, the
U.S.A., Canada, Formosa, Okinawa, Thailand, and West
Germany.
One Okinawan and one West Papuan are now receiving
training by the Kyodan to become workers for Christ. The
budget for 1963 amounts to ¥1,800,000, which is provided
for by offerings.
(2) The Japan Christian Medical Association : This is a
supra-denominational organization affiliated with NCC. It
was organized in 1949 by Christian doctors and nurses, so
as to extend medical aid to the peoples of Southeast Asia
where both doctors and medical supplies are extremely
scarce. This Good Samaritanism dates back to the time
of World War II, when The Japan Christian Medical
Association, in cooperation with Japan YMCA, sent a
medical service team to war-torn China. The association
reopened its medical aid mission to Japan's neighboring
countries after the war.
At present, the association is stationing doctors in
ECUMENICAL MOVEMENT 95
Indonesia and Formosa ; and doctors and nurses in Nepal.
Moreover, it invites one or two medical students each
year from the Philippines, Burma, Formosa and Korea for
practical training and study at universities and hospitals.
(3) Japanese Evangelical Overseas Mission: This also
is a supra-denominational organization, although the
nucleus is formed by pastors and interested laymen of the
former Holiness Church. Founded in 1956, it sent itinerary
evangelists to Formosa, the PI, Australia and New Zealand.
The biggest enterprise was the dispatching of a 14-
member evangelistic team to Formosa in August-September,
1962. Team members visited churches all over Formosa,
even small Christian communities in out-of-the-way places.
Most of the members were pastors of Japan Evangelical
Alliance, although some were NCC pastors.
The guiding principles of this mission are (1) to believe
in the Bible as the infallible Word of God, and to keep the
commendments of the Bible, (2) to be a supra-denomi
national organization, and (3) to be a faith mission guided
by a subjective faith depending solely on God.
Besides these, the Society of Friends of Schweitzer in
Japan, a Christian organization with national popularity, is
actively supporting the cause of Dr. Albert Schweitzer, who
has spent half a century in Africa for medical evangelization.
The association for helping lepers of India was founded
with the appeal : " hospitals to the lepers of India ". NCC
church schools, with the cooperation of Church Schools-
Nursery Union and the Education Association of Christian
Schools in Japan, collected the offering of ¥2,400,000 for
this purpose in the campaign week.

CHAPTER 12
THE ANGLICAN EPISCOPAL CHURCH
The one year from April 1962 to March 1963 will be
remembered as the most important years in the history of
the Anglican Episcopal Church in Japan. The Church
celebrated the centenary of its mission in Japan in April
1959.
Now, in the fourth year of the second century of its
mission and the 18th year of the postwar era, the Church
appears to be entering a new era.
Signs of the new era can obviously be seen in the follow
ing events :
First, young and competent ministers are now being
promoted to the Church's bishop rank.
It was three years ago that Bishop Goto was appointed
as the head of the Tokyo diocese. In September 1962, the
Kyoto diocese welcomed the Rt. Rev. Yuzuru Mori the
former president of the Episcopal Theological Seminary in
Tokyo as its new bishop. In the Osaka diocese, after the
Rt. Rev. Teijiro Yanagihara retired in December 1962, the
Rev. Toshio Koike, pastor of Ashiya Church, was elected
to be the new bishop in February 1963. The fact that
these three important dioceses now have bishops younger
than 50 years of age is a propitious sign for the Church's
future. High hopes are placed in these bishops for their
vigorous activity at least for the coming ten years.
Second, several important decisions were made at the
27th annual convention • held in Osaka in May, 1962. All
these long-awaited decisions are now being realized one
THE ANGLICAN EPISCOPAL CHURCH 97
after another. Although many people may feel it is too
late for the Church to undertake these decisions now, once
they are put in action, high expectation must be entertained
by all the members of the church.
Following are the most important of these decisions :
(1) The Liaison Committee:
All liaison business such as relations with the mother
church, the NCC, the WCC, the Christian Federation, etc.
were determined to be handled by this committee under
the supervision of the church's General Affairs Bureau.
Since all subsidies remitted from the overseas churches
must be passed through it, the committee's position in the
Church must be said to be very important. The chairman
is Bishop Goto.
(2) The Publication Department:
Though it is belated, the church now decided to create
its own publication department in order to start positive
publication activities with high ideals and long-range plans.
Publications not only of prayer books and hymnals but also
Episcopal theological books, religious books for laymen and
evangelistic literature for the general public, which have
been rarely introduced so far, are now listed on the
publication schedule. Many theological books written by
outstanding authors, most of which would be translated
from foreign original warks for the time being, will be
favorably accepted not only by Episcopalians but also by
many people of other Protestant denominations. A satellite
organ of the Church's Literature Bureau, the department
enjoys a wide range of free activity. Its head is the Rev.
Katsuhiko Iwai.
(3) The Central Committee on Student Movement:
This Committee is in charge of liaison and cooperation
with all student activities at the church-related universities
as well as at other universities and institutions for students
such as student centers. The committee will also try to
98 CHURCH
conduct research in student movements and, if possible,
unify them. The ultimate goal of the committee is to
enlarge its activities to a nation-wide scale. Liaison with
Christian student movements conducted outside the Church
will also be included in its activities. The committee's
activities are performed under the supervision of the
Church's Evangelism Bureau and its chairman is Bishop
Goto. Because the Christian student movement in general
tends to isolate itself from the church, student movements
firmly placed within the range of church activities and
combined efforts of such Christian student bodies will assume
a very significant position for the cause of ecumenism.
(4) Establishment of Age-limit System :
Age-limits for the retirement of ministers were de
termined, namely 75 years of age for bishops and 72 years
of age for priests.
The system will be enforced in connection with the
Church's pension fund. The monthly amount of the pension
was increased from 7,000 yen to 10,000 yen.
Among other decisions made at the annual convention
were the establishment of the Study Committee for Con
solidating Evangelistic Efforts and of the Study Committee
on Ecumenism. In preparation for the interdenominational
Conference on Faith and Order to be held in Montreal,
Canada, in this July, study meetings were held on the NCC
level both in Tokyo and in Kyoto, and reports were
prepared by each respective group. Representing the
Church, the Rev. R. J. Hammer in Tokyo and the Rev.
Toshio Kochi in Kyoto participated in these meetings.
Problems now confronting the church can be divided into
two categories : One is how to strengthen each individual
church and the other is how to break through the very
narrow but stubborn wall of urban middle-class intellectuals
for the sake of evangelism. Even according to the latest
statistics, the church has only 10 diocean bishops, 262
THE ANGLICAN EPISCOPAL CHURCH 99
priests, 17 deans, 35 missionary priests, 44,135 laymen, 257
churches, and 91 preaching stations. There are a number
of churches which witnessed no substantial increase of
members since their founding from 30 to 40 years ago.
Churches with a membership from 100 to 199 number 53,
those with 200 to 299 members 27, and those with more
than 300 members 14. Even among such a narrow social
stratum as urban intellectuals, the church has not yet
gained a stable position. There are numerous opportunities
for the church to penetrate into this social stratum with
evangelical messages.
There seem to be two schools of thought within the
Church concerning evangelistic approaches. One school
advocates concentration of evangelistic efforts upon pene
tration primarily into this social stratum so as to increase
the average number of members at every church to 300.
Evangelistic efforts toward industry and rural areas, this
school argues, can be performed even afterward.
The other school insists that the church immediately has
to address itself to all social strata utilizing all available
resources worked out with fresh ideas.
Each school has good reasons for its belief as well as
difficulties in its position. At any rate, these are some new
activities which have been started recently.
(1) The establishment of the Japan Institute of Christian
Education (JICE) at St. Paul University:
Established in September 1962, it is not a mere educational
institute in a Christian university. Although it was formally
established last year, substantial activities were already
begun in 1959, and it has thus exerted a considerable effect
not only on the Episcopal body but on all Christendom in
Japan.
The institute is under the strong influence of and largely
aided by Dr. D. R. Hunter, Director of the Education Bureau
of the Episcopal Church in America. Its guiding principle
100 CHURCH
is the so-called " Group Dynamics," which is based upon
the theory that all groups (the church is also one of such
groups that include all kinds of secular groups), when
properly organized, can exhibit their inherent dynamic
forces. And "Group Dynamic" is a type of education
through which people are to be organized into a well-formed
group through experiments. It is said that those who
participate in such experiments certainly undergo changes.
Degrees of such changes vary according to individuals.
Applications of such experiments cover a wide range, where
any types of groups exist, including individual churches, in
dustrial societies, and management-labor relations. Problems
confronting individual churches and such questions as the
church's approach to industrial society, for example, can
be practically dealt with by this method.
The institute is a center of such experimental studies and
ready to extend its effort widely even toward overseas
churches in Asia. The directors of the institute are the
Rev. Dr. R. A. Merritt and the Rev. Dr. H. Yanagihara.
(2) Experiment by means of the Yokkaichi St. Andrew
Center:
This is a kind of bold attempt to bring forth a revolution
in the general concept of church buildings in Japan — what
stereotyped, shabby structures they are ! The attempt is
based on the insight that it will be possible for the church
to attract all strata of people to itself, ranging from city
mayors, high officials of municipal governments and in
dustrial entrepreneurs to laborers, students, intellectuals,
merchants, working girls, and housewi^e^, £f it breaks
down the wall that it has built by itseldpgainst O^siders,
by creating churches through imaginftive archittcture.
The center building of vivid blue color stands just Ikeside
the main street of Yokkaichi City, a booming industrial
town. It accommodates in its main floor an attractive
coffee bar into which anyone would like to step, a chapel
THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST IN JAPAN 117
the Rev. Ken Saeki, Vice Moderator; the Rev. Kiyoshi li,
Secretary— the Assembly worked its way through a number
of sensitive and critical issues, as well as a wide range of
routine matters common to legislative bodies of all churches.
Revisions of the Constitution of the Church : — The issue
which received the longest and most concerned attention
of the Assembly was the proposal of a continuing study
committee concerning the constitutional definition of the
districts of the United Church and of their relation to the
church as a whole. Six years of study and presentation of
reports to two previous General Assemblies lay behind the
recommendation considered by this session. The question
seeks to define the nature of the geographical districts of
the church, of which there are presently fourteen. Are
the districts merely administrative units, or do the districts
participate in the ecclesiastical nature of the United Church?
Put differently the Assembly was asking where the
essential nature of the church lay — in the United Church
as a whole? In the local congregations? These propositions,
held from the beginning, were reaffirmed. But what of
the district forms of church organizations, similar in general
character to synods in the reformed tradition or to annual
conferences in the Methodist tradition ? The Constitution
to the time of the Twelfth Assembly defined the districts
as regional units with the purpose of enabling the United
Church to carry out its general affairs. It was this word
ing with which many in the church were taking issue
because it recognized the districts merely as organizational
or efficiency units.
The proposed new wording of the study committee would
define the districts as regional units with the purpose of
enabling the United Church to carry out its ecclesiastical
function and its general affairs. Further, they are seen
as cooperative bodies of the churches in the area, thus
making the districts something more than a fellowship
118 CHURCH
of the congregations in the area and something less than
the regional body of the United Church as a whole.
The hesitation which has moved the Assembly in two
previous sessions to recommend further study was based
on the one hand upon reluctance to make changes in the
Constitution unless such changes seemed clearly mandatory
and expressive of the common mind of the church and on
the other hand upon the desire to preserve the unity of
the total body of the United Church against divisive
influences of regional independence.
Believing that there was no longer need for fear and
that the change was appropriate, the proposed new wording
was adopted by overwhelming majority.
This concern with basic constitutional definition of the
church is as sensitive an issue as a church can face. As
indicated in the presentation of the proposed change, the
atmosphere and conviction within which the constitution
was taken up for consideration was that the Holy Spirit
is working within the United Church to bring about more
than a viable amalgamation of historic church traditions.
It is working to bring into being a new unity, a new
creation in Christ.
A second constitutional-by-law consideration dealt with
by the 12th Assembly, though less profound than the issue
described above, concerned the General Secretariat of the
church and its pattern of administrative responsibility.
Formerly administrative responsibility was focused in the
office of the head of the General Secretariat (Somukyoku-
cho), or General Secretary and provision was made for a
number of secretaries who would assist the General Secre
tary in carrying out his responsibility. Now, according to
modifications adopted by the assembly, the secretaries
assisting the General Secretary are given respectively direct
administrative oversight of standing committees of the
United Church. Thus, the status of secretaries under the
THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST IN JAPAN 119
overall direction of the General officer has been elevated.
It must be added, however, in relation to the above
change that chairmen of standing committees elected by
the General Assembly exercise according to pattern strong
direction over committee activities. The relationship of the
role of committee chairman and administrative secretary
is often not clear in actual practice, so that the work of
the administrative secretary is frequently clerical in charac
ter. This has made it difficult in the past for the church or
to retain the services of able secretaries. Thus the new
constitutional provisions are important, in the development
of a stronger and more smoothly functioning church.
Ten year evangelism plan : — A further centrally important
action of the 12th Assembly was the adoption of a "Ten
Year Plan of Evangelism " formulated and presented by the
Evangelism Committee of the Church. This plan, involving
two basic themes of the "Renewal of the Church" (Tai-
shitsu Kaizeri) and the " Larger Parish " (Dendo Ken) had
been under study and discussion over the two year period
leading to the 12 th Assembly. In some of its aspects the
plan was already provisionally underway.
The Ten Year Plan expresses the concern that the United
Church take up positively the challenge of being the church
not for her own sake, but for the sake of the redemption
of the society in which God has placed her. Thus, the
church has pledged herself to attempt what is humanly
possible in the reorienting of her life and work toward
concerned outreach in witness and in service.
In its second theme the Ten Year Plan defines the con
cept of " larger parish " as more than a program to
strengthen weak churches in large areas of natural group
ing, though this is certainly a practical goal. More deeply,
the concept involves a strengthened sense of the unity of
the body of Christ in which each of the members assumes
a burden" Jor^the other members. Here the reference is to
120 CHURCH
the congregations of the United Church among whom there
is sought an increasingly united approach to the task of
the church in the various places or larger parishes of
Japan.
Other events and actions of the 12th General Assembly
which should be mentioned briefly were the presence of
ten fraternal delegates from overseas churches, including
seven from churches in the United States and Canada
cooperating with the United Church through the Interboard
Committee for Christian Work in Japan, and from the
United Churches in the Philippines, Okinawa, and Germany
which cooperate with the United Church of Christ in Japan
in a number of joint actions in mission.
Also, for the first time in a General Assembly a " Receiv
ing Service" was held for forty-six missionaries newly
arrived since the previous assembly. This had significance
in building a sense of church relationship from the outset
of what for most new missionaries is a somewhat arid
two-year period of language study. Also for missionaries
appointed to institutions of education and social work the
church consciousness was sharpened. Similarly, the service
proved to be a high moment for the Assembly itself.
Looking toward the goal of more adequate provision for
Christian workers in retirement the 12th Assembly author
ized the preparation of a contributing pension plan.
Specific social concerns of the Assembly were expressed
in the continued interest of the church in service and
witness in industrial areas, in a statement supporting the
preservation of the Ninth Article, or peace clause, of the
national Constitution, and in cables sent in relation to the
crisis in Cuba which reached a critical stage in October of
1962.
2. Studies in Cooperative Policy in Christian Mission
The United Church is presently engaged in a compre-
THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST IN JAPAN 121
hensive study of issues involved in the cooperative approach
to Christian mission in Japan on the part of the United
Church and overseas churches in the United States, Canada,
Europe, and Asia. What are the values and goals to be
guarded in the consciousness and policies of a national
church as it confronts the challenges of mission in her own
land along with overseas churches who also feel a sense of
obligation for Christian witness in that land ? The question
of policy in cooperation in Christian witness thus emerges
as a complex and crucial matter.
The study underway in the United Church, which will
be reported to her General Assembly in 1964, involves
investigation in several main areas : basic principles ; cooper
ative financial policy ; the role of the missionary ; the
institutions ; and the relationship with other churches beyond
the scope of those western overseas churches historically
related to the United Church.
Tentative statements have been produced in most of the
above areas. Such working statements are being circulated
in Japan and in regional and worldwide church groupings
in the hope that dialogue may help this church to move
wisely. The provisional statement of basic principles
wrestles with the difficult issues involved in the advanced
stages of the transition of a national church from a
predominantly receiving posture to one of responsible bear
ing of mission in her own land and in other areas of the
world. Is there a necessary stage of " independence " in
change from dependence to inter-dependence ? Should this
stage better be termed " counter-dependence " as one
Japanese churchman has said, in the sense that no church
at any stage of development can be truly independent of
other churches ?
At the center of this search for guiding principles lies
the question of appropriate attitudes toward receiving
financial aid. The tension between deepening the attitudes
122 CHURCH
and intentions which make responsible stewardship possible
and the continued receiving of significant amounts of money
for the work of the church in a number of program areas
has grown sharply in this church in the past few years.
Suffice it to say at this point in her considerations the
United Church is attempting to outline a plan by which
the receiving of funds from overseas churches will be
reduced over a ten year period according to varying scales
in different areas of work until at the end of this period
the work of the church in essentially all areas of her
program will be self-supported. Exceptions may lie in
expensive ministries such as television, radio, and some
phases of building.
Coupled with the above interest of the church is an
undertaking authorized by the General Assembly to raise
in Japan one billion yen ($2,780,000), largely through the
efforts of laymen. To be realized in stages, the funds will
be used to strengthen evangelistic outreach and other
programs in the life and work of the church. The plan
is unquestionably ambitious. Time will tell whether or not
the potential for its realization is present in the church.
A perplexing concomitant of the movement toward
reducing overseas funds in the program of the church is
the question of ways whereby the United Church may
continue to make it possible for overseas churches to carry
out their sense of missionary obligation in Japan, a country
wherein still less than one percent of the population is
Christian. Will change be necessary in the policy of
integrating funds and personnel of overseas churches within
the program of the United Church ? Should the movement
be toward types of cooperative programs in Japanese society
to which the Kyodan itself will commit funds and personnel
in company with overseas churches ?
A pertinent question is to ask whether or not the church's
inner dynamics leading toward financial self-support and
THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST IN JAPAN 123
the cutting back on overseas funds apply equally to the
overseas missionary, of whom there are presently 394 at
work in the United Church and in related schools and social
work agencies. The ovenvhelming response to this question,
even on the part of those voicing strongest concern for
financial self-support, is that the two factors of overseas
funds and overseas missionary colleagues are not related.
The continued need and desire for missionaries in an
unreduced number are affirmed. The presence of the
missionary, aside from the particular work he may be
doing, is emphasized as a concrete symbol of the nature
of Christianity as a world-wide faith embracing all men
and all races.
Even as the need for missionaries is expressed, the United
Church is also asking herself whether or not missionaries
are being placed in the most effective working situations.
An extensive study is being conducted in the effort to gain
a picture of the actual " image of the missionary " operative
in the mind of the church as well as among missionaries
themselves. The study will continue to probe the question
of the definition of missionary roles appropriate for the
present stage of church growth.
The church herself is coming into a sharper sense of
responsibility in the training of missionaries and in their
pastoral guidance.
In March, 1963, the third in a series of consultations was
held by representatives of the United Church of Christ in
Japan, related Christian schools and social work institutions,
and secretaries of mission boards cooperating in the Inter-
board Committee for Christian Work in Japan. The first
such consultation took place in 1958 and a second in 1959.
These consultations represent continuing conversation on
policies of most effective forms of cooperative work in
Japan.

3. The United Church and World Christian Mission
In 1959 at the Anniversary service of the United Church
marking the end of the first and beginning of the second
century of Protestant Christianity in Japan the congregation
assembled at the Municipal Gymnasium in Tokyo adopted
a statement expressing the mind and resolve of the church
in looking to the new century.
The statement read in part,
" We remember that one hundred years ago the
Gospel came to us from across the seas, and in the
second century we press toward a greater realization
of our task in carrying the gospel abroad, toward
becoming a church which truly bears a share of the
universal calling of the Christian mission in the world."
In this way the United Church articulated a sharpened
awareness of responsibility in the world-wide witness of the
Christian church.
In the years which have followed 1959 steps have been
taken to implement the above resolve.
The budget of the Overseas Evangelism Committee has
increased annually. Elevated to the status of a regular
standing committee responsible to the General Assembly,
this committee has been strengthened in personnel and
scope of responsibility. At the present time seventeen
Christian workers are serving overseas in Latin America,
Okinawa, Taiwan, Thailand, Canada, Germany, and the
United States. Another family has at this writing just
returned from a three year term of service at Allahabad
Agricultural Institute in India. A nursery school educator
is preparing for departure to Kenya in Africa.
Two ministers included in the above list represent inter-
resting developments in the contribution of an Asian Church
to the West. They are Japanese pastors who have been
invited to serve on the ministerial staff of a church in
THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST IN JAPAN 125
Westfield, New Jersey, and in Hamburg, Germany.
It is interesting to note the pattern which seems to be
emerging in the interchurch relations of the United Church
particularly in Asia. The presuppositions in overseas
outreach are following not so much a pattern of pioneer
missionary work on the part of a mother church through
a board of mission in unevangelized areas, but rather a
pattern of mutual sharing of resources between sister
churches on the basis of a commonly defined cooperative
agreement. Such a relationship was first established with
the United Church of Christ in Okinawa in 1960. Most
recently a similar agreement was worked out with the
Presbyterian Church of Formosa. An agreement of this
type was the subject of conversation in recent days with
a representative of the Evangelical Church of Union in
Germany and of the Evangelical Church in Germany as
well as of German Missionary Societies. Discussions look
ing toward new forms of cooperation are presently under
way with the Presbyterian Church in the United States
and with the American Baptist Convention.
Participation in the Third Assembly of the World Council
of Churches at New Delhi on the part of four official United
Church delegates and a group of advisers has widened the
interest of the church in ecumenical concerns. Through
the activities and reports of a member on the Central
Committee of the World Council of Churches and other
churchmen active in a number of World Council Committees
and Commissions, the thinking of the church in these
spheres is increasingly growing.
Elsewhere in this volume a report will be given of the
activities of the East Asia Christian Conference and par
ticularly of the East Asia Situation Conference held in
March, 1963. The interest of the United Church in this
gathering was strong, and an active part is being taken
in follow-up developments.
126 CHURCH
There are no immediately promising occurences in further
church union. On the other hand there does seem to be
a widening acknowledgment that, following the past decade
of deepening inner unity, the United Church may now have
come to the time, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit,
for further steps in Christian unity.
4. Theological Education and Christian Ministries
The criticism has at times been leveled at the ministry
and seminaries of the United Church that too heavy an
emphasis is placed on systematic theological matters and
too little upon the practical pastoral ministry. Critics hold
that sermons are excessively heavy, fail to communicate,
and do not provide laymen with concrete guidance in daily
affairs. Theological educators and ministers have been
concerned, on the other hand, that theological and biblical
guidance be exercised to guard against distortions of the
Gospel and superficiality.
During the past year steps were taken to bring both of
the above challenges into more promising dialogue. On
April 3-5, 1962, forty-five delegates from United Church
related seminary faculties and the Evangelism Committee
of the church met to consider the pastoral and practical
responsibilities of the Christian minister within an atmos
phere of biblical and theological faithfulness. This, indeed,
is the goal of continued consultations— not the opposition
of the theological and the practical, but the discovery within
responsible theological disciplines of the forms and tech
niques of the practical ministry.
Also within the area of the ministry of the church two
events have taken place within the past year which mark
solid progress in two difficult areas — the question of status
in the church of ordained ministers serving in Christian
institutions and recognition of women dedicated to full time
Christian service aside from the ordained ministry.
THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST IN JAPAN 127
The regulations of the church for long have provided for
the recognized status of ordained ministers in the schools
and institutions related to the United Church. The definition
of the phrase " related to the United Church " has been a
question. Lack of clear definition has made it difficult for
a number of men in recent years to secure their status in
the church and in her General Assembly and District
Assemblies.
The Twelfth General Assembly approved regulations
defining the conditions for the United Church related insti
tution. This should prove helpful. The new regulations
point also toward a greater flexibility in the range of
ministries recognized and affirmed by the United Church.
A second similar event pertains to the recognition within
the church of unordained women in full time service. This
has been a confusing issue through the past few years. A
continuing study committee has now presented to the
Executive Committee of the church proposed regulations
defining the role of " Secretary of Christian Education."
These regulations will be applied provisionally pending
ratification by the General Assembly in 1964.
Still unfinished is the definition of status and role of
women dedicated to " deaconess " forms of service.

the general statistical report elsewhere in the Yearbook.

This statistical picture reveals the scope of the challenge
before the church, as well as the strengths and weaknesses
within.
The numbers and deep dedication of the ministers is a
source of strength. A recognition of the potential for
effective witness on the part of the laity is growing
throughout the church.
The large proportion of small congregations is a source
of weakness. In fact, the Evangelism Committee holds the
need to strengthen the weaker churches as a crucial part
of its evangelistic outreach to the nation as a whole.
Subsidies to pastors' salaries in the small churches, except
in specially designated pioneer projects, do not come from
the central budget of the church or from overseas funds.
Usually the supplement comes from day nursery projects
or from forms of side work.
The large number of members on the inactive role is a
weakness. Such dropping out of sight of members is
causing the church to give particular attention to the
nature of the Christian message and the life of the con
gregation ; it is asking whether or not members are truly
THE UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST IN JAPAN 129
finding strength and guidance for its daily life.
The 6,216 baptisms represent a decrease of 423 in number
over the previous year. The low rate of baptisms is
disturbing. This fact is surely one of the clearest demon
strations both of the difficulty of evangelism in Japan and
of the profound need for the empowering presence and
work of the Holy Spirit.
A further cause of concern statistically is the widespread
drop in church school attendance throughout the churches
in Japan. The tendency of the public schools to conduct
Sunday programs involving the students and often the
families is a disturbing factor.
On the encouraging side of the ledger are the takens of
increasing vitality of lay witness and the willingness of
the church to look toward new, creative ministries in fast
changing industrial and urban Japan.
The United Church needs the prayers of all that she
may not rest content with anything she has achieved, nor
become discouraged over all that she has failed to achieve,
but that she may continue to be obedient to her living
Lord and more deeply responsive to the guidance of the
Holy Spirit in service and witness in Japan today.
CHAPTER 18
THE NIPPON KIRISUTO KYOKAI
The Nippon Kiristo Kyokai or the Presbyterian and Re
formed Church in Japan was formed 12 years ago as the
result of the merger of more than 30 churches which had
originated from the old Nippon Kirisuto Kyokai. (Today,
the Church is sometimes called for phonetic convenience
" Shin-Nikki " which is short for the new Nippon Kirisuto
Kyokai). The ecclesiastical system and theology adopted
by the church are identical with those of the old Nippon
Kirisuto Kyokai. The church is based on the Presbyteri-
anism modified in line with the Japanese situation and on
Calvinistic faith in a broad sense. During the 12 years since
its founding, the church has held synod meetings 14 times.
Today, the church consists of four presbyteries including
107 churches and preaching stations.
On looking back upon the church's activities undertaken
during the one year from April 1962 to March 1963, we
find two things which are worth special mention. One is
the church's positive evangelistic activity and the other is
its progressive action to establish friendly relations with
various churches both at home and abroad. All these facts
are clear evidence that the church has confidently started
to make strides forward after having solidified its founda
tion for the past 10 years by completing these necessary
and important steps : the enactment of its Confession of
Faith at the third synod with some enlargement and modi
fication ; the enactment of its Constitutional regulations ; the
enactment and revision of its ritual, and the founding of
its theological seminary.
(1) The Synod's Evangelism Department, having been con-
THE NIPPON KIRISUTO KYOKAT 131
siderably strengthened over that of the previous year, has
undertaken various actions such as helping churches and
preaching stations which were chosen by each presbytery,
as well as conducting pioneer evangelism in some areas.
An embryo preaching station in Nagoya, for example, has
been helped by this type of evangelism to grow up into an
established church and then become able to construct its
own building. The decision to recognize this preaching
station as an established church was approved at the Kinki
Presbytery meeting held in March 1963.
It was unanimously decided at the 12th synod held at
Kashiwagi Church, Tokyo, in October 1962 that the Synod's
Evangelism Department should start pioneer evangelism in
new areas, such as assisting the activity of Nagasaki Pre
aching Station in the Kyushu Presbytery and begin evange
listic work to establish a new church in Shizuoka as the
result of careful investivations conducted previously. This
embryo church then grew up so rapidly that it called its
full-time minister in June 1963. The Synod's Evangelism
Department is now also conducting preparatory investiga
tions at some other areas for starting pioneer evangelism.
(2) The Nippon Kirisuto Kyokai is the only denomination
in Japan that is formally affiliated with the World Presby
terian Alliance. On the occasion of the visit to Japan of
the president of the alliance, Dr, Lloyd, in May and June
1962 a welcome dinner meeting was held under the co-spon
sorship of the Korean Christian Church in Japan, a formal
member, the United Church of Christ injapan (Kyodan),
an associate member, and the Nippon Kirisuto Kyokai.
This was the first occasion that the church co-sponsored a
meeting of this kind with the United Church of Christ
after it was reconstructed.
The Church dispatched the former chairman of the Synod,
the Rev. Hisao Kurosawa, to the World Conference on
Evangelism of the Southern Presbyterian Church in America
132 CHURCH
held at Montreal, North Carolina, in October, 1962.
When Dr. Scott, chairman of the United Presbyterian
Church, U. S. A., visited Japan in November the same year,
the church again held a welcome meeting in collaboration
with the United Church of Christ.
At the 12th synod, mentioned above, committeemen were
appointed in order to study the Church's relationship with
the WCC and the NCC.
According to the report made by the Church at its 12th
synod, the Church consists of four presbyteries, including
64 churches, 20 evangelism churches and 20 preaching sta
tions. Its ordained ministers include 80 men and 12 women,
and licensed ministers include 18 men and eight women,
totalling 118 ministers, 98 men and 20 women.
Other statistical figures are as follows :
Church members : 11,636 including 952 children, an
increase of 257 as compared with the previous year.
Average attendance at meetings held during 1961 :
Morning worship service : 1,307 men and 2,124 women
Total : 3,431
Evening worship service : 286 men and 386 women
Total : 672
Prayer meeting : 344 men and 432 women Total : 776
Sunday school : 1,557 boys and 2,849 girls Total : 4,406
Furthermore, the church runs a very small but indepen
dent theological seminary of its own. There are two courses
in this seminary : a 6-year course for high school graduates
and a 4-year course for college graduates. The number of
students at present is 10. Its curricula is the same as those
at theological seminaries of university level. Four students
were graduated in March 1963 and five new students entered
in the following month.
The theme for the National Laymen's Grand Meeting
scheduled in April 1964 in Osaka has been decided as " The
Nippon Kirisuto Kyokai Moves Forward." The theme can
THE NIPPON KIRISUTO KYOKAI 133
be said to represent the Church's progressive structure at
the present moment.

As far as the ecclesiastical system is concerned, every
church is independent and free to direct its own activities.
However, in recent years the solidarity of all these churches
was thought to be necessary and a national liaison organ
was established. The organ was first started after the war
under the name " The Catholic Diocesan Alliance." When
the Religious Juridical Person Law was put into effect
136 CHURCH
several years ago, the alliance changed its name to the
Catholic Central Council. At the annual diocesan conference
last year, the rules of the council were amended in order
to strengthen its internal organization and activity, The
structure and personnel of the council are as follows :
Catholic Central Council, a religious juridical person
Chief Director : Archbishop Tatsuo Doi, Cardinal
Directors : All bishops
Purpose : The council is to promote propagation of the
Gospel and exert itself for liasion and coopera
tion among the Church's facilities and with in
the Church's activities.

THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH IN JAPAN 139
2. Statistics
All figures concerning the Roman Catholic Church are
put in statistics as of the end of every June. The statistics
as of the end of June, 1962 were as follows : listed above.
3. Main Events
1962 was the centenary of the founding of the first Catho
lic church in Japan which was established immediately after
the country's isolation policy was changed. The church
was the Sacred Heart Church in Yokohama, dedicated on
January 12, 1862. The year was also the centenary of the
canonization of the 26 Japanese martyrs who died zealousy
for their Catholic faith. These martyrs were canonized by
Pope Pius IX on June 8, 1862. In commemoration of these
two events, the Japanese Bishops Group decided at the
Bishops Conference in fiscal 1961 to celebrate the year as
the centenary for the reconstruction of the Catholic Church
in Japan. According to this decision a variety of functions
were held at many places in Japan.
Outstanding among these functions were these :
The Reconstruction of the Japan Roman Catholic Church
The Centenary Commemorative Ceremony in Yoko
hama
Following various commemorative functions such as the
musical festival of Catholic schools, the unveiling ceremony
of commemorative statues, laborers' gatherings, exhibitions,
and commemorative lecture meetings, which were held for
a week beginning April 29, 1962, the centennial commemo
rative ceremony was celebrated on May 5 at the campus
of St. Joseph College in Yokohama. Those who gathered
for this function included all the bishops in Japan and as
many as 10,000 church members from many churches in the
Kanto area. Together with the Church's slogan " Partici
pate with gratitude and go forward with determination,"
this ceremony quickened all the present Japanese Catholics'
140 CHURCH
gratitude and stirred up their determination, to go forward
in all aspects of the Church's work.
The Centennial Ceremony of the Canonization of the
26 Japanese Martyrs in Nagasaki
Beginning on June 8, a 3-day ceremony was held with
the participation of about 500 pilgrims from Mexico, Spain
and Italy and of about 3,500 Japanese pilgrims. Local church
members in Kyushu who attended the ceremony numbered
approximately 10,000. Various functions included the Bishops
High Mass at Oura Cathedral on the first day, a lantern
parade with pilgrims who had arrived on foot a long way
from Kyoto recalling the valiant faith of those martyrs as
they went to the place of the martyrdom at Nishizaka on
the second day, and the celebration of the completion of
the memorial monument and the memorial archives. The
function was supported by Nagasaki City and reported both
domestically and internationally by general information
media, thus obtaining good results for the sake of evange
lism.
The National Gathering of Priests in Tokyo
On August 22 and 23, as one of the commemorative
functions, more than 300 Japanese and foreign priests ga
thered in Tokyo from all over the country to discuss various
problems under the common theme " Parish and Catholic
Actions." With gratitude for the 100 long years of the
Church's history and reflection upon its past activities under
taken under the blessing of the Lord, they pledged each
other more earnestness for evangelism. As a result of this
gathering, actions by both laity and apostleship groups be
came very brisk later.
Other functions during the year included the National
Assembly of the Catholic Students Alliance in Kyoto from
July 30 to August 5, the general convention of the Catholic
Young Workers Alliance in Tokyo from August 18 to 21,
and the general assembly of the St. Vincent de Paul, a
THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH IN JAPAN 141
social welfare organization, in Nagasaki from August 4 to 6.
Conclusion
In the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council held in Rome
last October all of the 14 Japanese bishops participated,
returning to Japan at the end of the year. All plan to
attend the second session of the Council which is due to
be resumed in September. It seems that on the basis of
the resolutions and decisions at this Council, modernization
of the Church will be largely promoted and its operations
will be activated in all aspects. By means of modernizing
and strengthening its organizations, the Roman Catholic
Church in Japan is firmly resolved to exert its efforts for
Christianization of the nation and for the peace of the
world in close cooperation with the Protestant denomina
tions.
CHAPTER 20
JAPANESE EASTERN ORTHODOX CHURCH
Among the important events during the last year were
these :
(1) The church in Osaka, whose buildings had been
burned to the ground due to wartime air raids, completed
its new cathedral on April 15, 1962, through the combined
efforts of its members during many years. On that day
the consecration was presided over by His Eminence Arch
bishop Nikon. The ceremony was a great success with not
only 16 clergy participating in the consecration prayer but
also with more than 800 church members and about 200
invited guests present.
The cathedral is the last among the many Eastern
Orthodox churches which suffered war damages and which
have been reconstructed since the end of the war. With
the completion of this cathedral, the number of cathedrals
belonging to the Japanese Eastern Orthodox Church has
become equivalent to that at the zenith of the Church's
prosperity in 1917.
(2) On June 3, 1962, the usual convivial meeting of the
church members resident along the Tokaido highway was
held at Shuzenji church. More than 200 members attended.
The purpose of the meeting was to enhance their mutual
friendship with faith and love in sincere prayer toward the
Lord. By gathering in a single hall, they could share
their mutual experiences as Christians with the intention of
having their spiritual life filled with more divine blessing.
As a usual festivity of the Church, the meeting has always
been very fruitful. It is earnestly desired that this kind of
meeting be held also in other areas of the country on a
JAPANESE EASTERN ORTHODOX CHURCH 143
nation-wide scale.
(3) Due to the personnel changes made in the Russian
Orthodox Greek Catholic Church of America — Metropolia —
last year, a change was also made in the presidency of
the Japanese Eastern Orthodox Church.
His Eminence Archbishop Nikon was relieved from the
office of the presidency on Oct. 9, 1962 and His Grace
Bishop Ambrocy came to Japan, as the temporary bishop
of Japan, to take the place of Archbishop Nikon. He
assumed this position until the end of last October. Accord
ing to the decision made at the Metropolia, His Eminence
Archbishop Ireney and His Grace Bishop Vladimir came to
Japan and from November 1 assumed the posts of the
bishop and vicar of Kyoto respectively. They have remained
at these posts until the present.
(4) The long-unsolved problem concerning the possession
of the site of the Nikolai Cathedral in Surugadai, Tokyo,
with a space of about 7,000 square meters, was finally
settled on Jan. 9 this year. At that time a sales contract
was concluded between the Church and the Japanese
Government. The problem of the unpaid rent for this site,
which had been pending for more than ten years, was also
decided together with the above agreement. As the result
of these settlements, the site formally came into the
possession of the Church, brightening the prospects of the
Church's future activity.
Reflecting upon its rather sluggish activities in the past,
the Japanese Eastern Orthodox Church is now elaborating
various plans for its future development.
The first action to be taken for the next fiscal year is
to strengthen its educational organizations. It is keenly
felt in view of the Church's future that educational organi
zations particularly for young people, such as Sunday
schools and young people's associations, and the Church's
theological seminary in Tokyo must be strengthened.
144 CHURCH
In line with the activation of its educational organizations,
the Church's publishing activities must be considerably
improved. Due to the lack of religious books for the
general public, publication of " readable Orthodox Church
books " is strongly desired. In view of this fact, the Church
is planning to start publication of several such books in
the next fiscal year.
A new project is also envisioned for training future
ministers partly based on the finding that the shortage of
ministers in the Church stemmed mostly from financial
reasons.
How to make the Church economically self-supporting or
independent has been a long-pending question. However,
the prospects in this direction have become somewhat
brighter since the problem concerning the possession of
the site of the Nikolai Cathedral was settled through
successful negotiations with the Government authorities, as
mentioned earlier.
IV REPORT
NO. 1
THE NATIONAL CHRISTIAN COUNCIL
This past year has witnessed significant developments in
the ecumenical movement both in the world at large and
in Japan itself. During this period the effects of the New
Delhi Assembly of the World Council of Churches upon
Japan have been notable.
Of particular importance has been the integration of the
former International Missionary Council into the World
Council of Churches with the IMC becoming the Division
of World Mission and Evangelism for WCC. This organi
zational development has great theological and practical
meaning. Firstly, what makes this morepossible is the
recognition, affirmed at the WCC Central Committee held
at Paris in August, 1962, that the church basically exists
for evangelism. A corollary of this is that the churches
established around the world are together responsible for
the Christian mission to the ends of the world. Seen in
such a perspective, the role of the WCC is not to be so
much an instrumentality of the foreign missionary but the
place where the churches seek together to fulfill their joint
call to mission.
Following the New Delhi Assembly Japan was visited by
a number of leaders of the ecumenical movement. The
visit of Dr. Robert Nelson, former secretary of the Faith
and Order Commission, is particularly noteworthy. At the
time of his visit he introduced the plans for the Fourth
World Faith an Order Conference which will be held at
Montreal in July, 1963. Stimulated by the visit, study
146 REPORT
groups were formed in Tokyo and Kyoto which under the
sponsorship of the NCC have prepared careful reports which
will be used as part of the reference material for the con
ference.
The decision of the Russian Orthodox Church to seek
membership in the World Council of Churches has been an
encouraging sign which gives again an understanding of
how life in Christ overcomes division and prejudice based
on nation, race, or ideology and brings to us a sense of
hope that through Christ peace may be achieved.
During the past year evidence has been found that some
of the barriers that have existed for centuries dividing the
Roman Catholic and Protestant churches may be lowering.
During this period the Second Vatican Council was held
with observers present representing the Protestant and
Russian Orthodox Churches. Here in Japan theologians
from these three branches of Christianity have been meet
ing regularly in Tokyo and Kyoto to study basic theological
problems. Special efforts were made to widen the obser
vance of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity held
during the third week of January each year. Father Joseph
Spae of the Orience Institute presented to the NCC Ex
ecutive Committee the plan that a common poster be used
in Protestant as well as Catholic Churches.
EACC
This past year has witnessed a substantial increase in
the participation of the churches of Japan in the East Asia
Christian Conference. From the origin, representatives of
the NCC have taken part in the deliberations and program
of EACC but the organization has always seemed remote.
During February and March of 1963, "Situation Con
ferences " were held in the three areas of Asia under EACC
sponsorship. The situation conference for northeast Asia
was held at the Amagisanso Conference Grounds of the
Baptist Convention and brought together 80 delegates,
THE NATIONAL CHRISTIAN COUNCIL 147
chiefly from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Okinawa, Korea and
Japan. Never before has there been such an occasion which
brought together the representatives of the churches of
these countries for consideration of the subject of joint
action for mission in this area. The sense of joy at meet
ing fellow Christians from these countries was matched
only by the desire to communicate concerns about the
missionary task here and now. This, indeed, was the EACC
in action.
In May, 1962, it was finally possible for a delegation re
presenting the NCC in Japan to carry out a visit to the
churches of Korea. The Reverend Messrs. Muto, Shirae
and Kozaki were received with warm hospitality. This
coming year representatives of the churches of Korea
should return the visit to Japan.
The Christians of Japan are eager to assume their share
of the responsibility for the program of Inter Church Aid.
More than $1,000 was sent to Iran following the severe
earthquake in that country in the fall of 1962. Likewise
more than $400 was sent to Korea for relief.
This past year has seen changes in the NCC staff. At
the end of the last General Assembly, the Rev. Kiyoshi
Hirai resigned as General Secretary. In June, Dr. Chuzo
Yamada was chosen as his successor. Mrs. Kazuko Suzuki
also joined the staff with responsibilities for women's work
and Christian home movement. Mr. Howard Huff left his
post as Executive Secretary of the NCC Literature Com
mission to return to the U.S. on furlough.
The Society of Friends joined the NCC as an affiliate
member and several other churches are investigating the
possibilities of joining the NCC.
Throughout this year there has been a greatly strength
ened conviction that the churches of Japan must together
face their calling to joint action for mission, to give con
sideration to issues of faith and order that impede the unity
148 REPORT
of the church, and to shoulder together an increasing share
of responsibility for the program of Inter-Church Aid. In
the carrying out of all these functions the NCC has a vital
role to play.

EDUCATION ASSOCIATION OF
CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS (EACS)
1. The Purpose and Organization of EACS
(1) The Founding of EACS
It was 53 years ago when the Education Association of
Christian Schools started its activities under the name
of the National Christian Education Association (NCEA).
The origin of NCEA must date further back, for it was
founded through the merger of two national federations of
both boys' schools and girls' schools which had existed
separately.
NCEA changed its name to the present one at its 44th
general convention in 1956. This change was to indicate
clearly that the Association is a federation of Christian
schools, as it is clearly indicated in its rules, " The Associ
ation has for its object to promote Christian school
education, thus contributing to education in our country."
Besides, as it is also determined that " The Association is
organized with school juridical persons and schools es
tablished by them which have given their consent to the
purpose of its establishment," schools which have joined
it are obliged to share the responsibility for the development
of Christian school education.
(2) Activities
For the above-mentioned purpose, EACS is conducting
the following activities :
(a) Liaison between the member schools and furtherance
of completion of their educational facilities and contents.
(b) Study and research related to Christian school
150 REPORT
education.
(c) Assistance for schools in finding teachers.
(d) Liaison and negotiation with both domestic and
foreign organizations related to itself.
(e) Other matters needed for achieving its objectives.
For its administration, in addition to its headquarters
secretariat, EACS has five local conferences in the Tohoku,
Hokkaido, Kanto, Kansai and Seinan (Kyushu) areas. And
in order to carry out its activities, two standing committees
on educational research and public relations are set up
under its board of directors.
The board of directors has 16 members — two from the
Tohoku and Hokkaido areas, four from the Kanto area,
three from the Kansai area, two from the Seinan area,
and five from the general convention. The chairman (at
present, Kinjiro Ohki, Chancellor of Aoyama Gakuin) and
seven permanent members are elected by mutual vote.
According to the decision at the general convention, the
board of directors may engage several persons as its
advisors. At present, it has eight advisors.
(3) The General Convention and the Management of the
Secretariat
All matters related to EACS must be approved at its
general convention. According to its rules, the general
convention is held each May and the following items are
discussed and decided :
(a) Election of officers
(b) Annual Report of the Activities
(c) Report of the Settled Accounts
(d) Budget
(e) Program of Activities
(f) Approval of Newly Joined Schools
(g) Amendment of the Rules
(h) Other Important Matters
EDUCATION ASSOCIATION 151
Even through it is provided that all expenses to carry
out its activities are " covered with joining fees, member
ship fees, contributions, and other income," most of the
expenses for the Standing Committees are covered through
a large subsidy (called a special activity account) which is
remitted from the Interboard Committee.
All business items of EACS are handled by its secretariat
which is staffed with a secretary general (at present,
Yoshimune Abe) and five officials.
(4) Criteria for Joining
As mentioned earlier, EACS consists of Christian schools.
Schools desiring to join it must fulfill the following criteria :
(a) They must be schools run by school juridical persons.
(b) It must be clearly stated in both the deed of con
tribution and the school regulations that the education of
the schools must be conducted with Christian principles,
and the resulting effects must be already manifest.
(c) The trustees of the schools must be Christians in
principle.
(d) The majority of full- time teachers at the schools
must be Christians.
(e) Teaching facilities and treatment of teachers must
be appropriate.
(f) The schools may be universities, colleges, junior
colleges, high schools, middle schools, primary schools, or
other educational institutions corresponding to these, with
particular emphasis on the educational standard.
(g) The schools must be capable of performing their
duties as EACS members.
2. Present Condition of EACS
The present membership includes the following numbers
of schools and the numbers of their students, are as follows :

Remark : The figures in the parentheses in Universities or
Colleges show the number of departments, includ
ing 11 departments for night courses.
Among the junior colleges are two theological
schools and the figure in the parentheses show
the number of departments for night courses.
Among senior high schools are six night schools.
Among all these schools are only six universities having
departments or courses of science and engineering. There
is not a single medical school. This indicates one handicap
of Christian schools ; in this respect they cannot fully
contribute to higher education in Japan. In order to
EDUCATION ASSOCIATION 153
make up for this defect, there is a move in every
university toward establishing a department of science and
engineering.
The most phenominal among all contributions made by
Christian schools to education in this country is the high
development of women's education. This is evidenced by
the fact that in girls' schools there are more Christian
teachers and students than in boys' schools. There are
not a few junior and senior high schools in which all
teachers are Christians. Generally speaking, most cases
indicate that more than 60 per cent of teachers are
Christians. Despite some differences in the numbers of
Christian students according to schools, the following sta
tistics of baptized students in a Christian girls' high school
may be regarded as a typical picture :
Twenty per cent of all students in the second junior
grade are baptized, 21 per cent in the third grade, 22 per
cent in the first senior grade, 16 per cent in the second
grade and 30 per cent in the third grade. (Based upon a
survey by Mr. Shoichi Honda)
In the case of universities and colleges, the number of
Christians among professors and students shows a marked
drop in general. But the fact that an unexpectedly large
number of students awake to faith in Christ before gradu
ation indicates that Christian education given to them so
far has not been without effect. This fact also offers
evidence against the reproach that Christian universities
and colleges have been largely secularized. It is worthy
of attention that in recent years there have been loud cries
from the member schools for an even more thoroughgoing
execution of Christian education.
3. Activities in 1962
In EACS itself there has appeared at last a new tendency
toward radical reforms. The most outstanding is a move
154 REPORT
to strengthen mutual assistance between Christian schools.
Problems that have motivated this move include successive
raises of teachers' salaries; price rises; sharp increase and
foreseeable sharp decrease of high school students ; decrease
of middle school students, improvement of facilities and
teachers' salaries ; difficulty in complementing teachers,
particularly those of science and mathematics ; and difficulty
in securing Christian teachers.
(1) National School Representatives' Meetings
In April and November national school representatives'
meetings were held mainly to consider salaries and the
treatment of teachers.
(2) General Convention and Board of Directors' Meetings
The highest authoritative decision-making organ, the
general convention for the fiscal year 1962 (the fiftieth in
succession) was held in June at Hirosaki Gakuin. 162
delegates attended.
In order to carry out the decisions made at the general
convention, national directors' meetings were held three
times and standing directors' meetings nine times. It was
decided in these meetings that in order to tide over various
difficulties every Christian school was facing the methods to
strengthen mutual assistance between the member schools
and to train teachers were to be worked out.
(3) Summer Events
As the usual activities of EACS three summer events
were sponsored under the auspices of the board of directors.
These included the 12th Religious Education Conference
(Chairman : Moritaka Samejima of Chinzei Gakuin, 114
participants) , the 33 rd Summer School (Principal : Chika-
taro Tokari of Kin jo Gakuin, 172 participants), and the
6 th School Office Staff Training Meeting (Chairman : Taka-
aki Aikawa of Kanto Gakuin, 175 participants). These
meetings were held successively at Tozanso Hall in Gotemba
from the end of July to the beginning of August, contri-
EDUCATION ASSOCIATION 155
bating greatly to the enhancement of mutual trust among
Christian school teachers and staffs.
(4) Activities of the Educational Research Committee
One of the standing committees set up under the board
of directors is the Educational Research Committee whose
chairman is now Nagahisa Nagakura. Keeping close con
tact with every educational research group, it held various
meetings including the 8th National Assembly of the
University Department with 62 participants; the Study
Meeting on Middle and High Schools: the Study was
focused particularly on practical English education last year
and 75 people attended) ; the 7 th National Primary School
Teachers Conference with 203 participants ; the Primary
School Executives' Meeting with 22 participants ; and the
Counseling Study Meeting with 27 participants. Further
more, the committee designated several research projects
which it would subsidize. Concerning this subsidizing
activity, the committee will soon publish a report under
the title of " Research Report No. V." In order to foster
educational research activities, the committee held Central
Committee meetings twice and Standing Committee meet
ings ten times.
Local conferences conducted in close conjunction with
the Educational Research Committee included a training
meeting of newly appointed teachers, local training meet
ings, counseling study meetings, Biblical teachers' study
meetings, and school office staffs' study meetings (only in
the Kanto area).
(5) Activities of the Public Relations Committee
The Public Relations Committee (Chairman : Bunnosuke
Sekine, at present) is a standing committee set up on the
same level with the Educational Research Committee. In
order to enhance the sense of solidarity among Christian
schools, the committee published its organ " Christian School
Education," (A four-page tabloid type, 6,500 copies) 11
156 REPORT
times and delivered these copies without charge to all
teachers at the member schools. It also published a report
entitled " The Prospect and Problems of Christian School
Education, No. IV."
(6) Other Activities
Other activities conducted by EACS in 1962 included a
survey on the actual conditions of religious education, under
the supervision of the Educational Research Committee ;
job finding activities for 83 teachers ; subsidizing actions ;
and negotiations with both domestic and foreign organi
zations.

JAPAN BIBLE SOCIETY
1. General Distribution
The Japan Bible Society continued its distribution of the
Scriptures through churches, bookstores, and visits of colpor
teurs in 1962. These figures are a pictorial report of their
work.

Especially noticeable is the high number of Bibles and
Testaments which were distributed by book stores. The
neighborhood or central book store in which people and
especially youth congregate in large numbers is outside the
church circle but is a place where people can easily purchase
the Bible or Testament.
The circulation by colporteurs has risen over last year,
and for the most part this has been to isolated non-Christian
homes. We are thankful that we are able to cooperate
with other Christian organizations to promote the work of
the Kingdom in Japan through our own task of circulating
the Scriptures.
158 REPORT
2. Colporteurs Work
In 1962 the colporteurs did their most effective work,
raising their distribution to more than 1,300,000 copies of
the Scriptures to individual homes. According to the
report of colporteurs, two-thirds of the homes they visited
bought copies of the Scriptures. This figure is certified to
by the fact that out of 300 homes which each colporteur
visited, 200 copies were sold.
Colporteurs worked in teams of four members each.
These teams visited systematically from house to house in
the appointed areas. In the spring time, two colporteurs
went to Ishigaki Island, Okinawa, where their work was
coordinated with the evangelistic campaign of the island's
churches. There, 24,000 copies of the Scriptures were
circulated. In the summer the colporteurs moved north
to Hokkaido to work mainly in the Kitami area. There
they circulated 120,000 copies of the Gospels.
Noteworthy among their reports was one remark of a
member of Soka-Gakkai, a militant political organization
noted for its discipline of members. This man refused to
buy Scriptures because of the order of Soka-Gakkai head
quarters ; yet he bought Gospels for his children. He said
that the school teachers of his children suggested that they
read the Bible and asked their father to buy it for them.
3. Special Colportage in Tokyo
While colporteurs' work had been carried on intensively
in the country areas where churches were few and the
Gospels had not yet been distributed, colportage work in
large cities has been neglected. The work of the church
was relied upon for distribution of the Bible, and it seemed
as if the Bible and Testaments were circulating for the
most part in the large cities. However, a study indicated
that large cities too were in need. For half a year plans
JAPAN BIBLE SOCIETY 159
were made, and beginning in April colportage was started
in the Tokyo Koto area (industrial area). In preparation
more than ten prayer meetings and conferences were held
with local church people. Among the ministers and key
laymen a Special Scripture Distribution Committee was
organized. By the end of October, after seven months of
work, more than 100,000 copies of the Gospels and Testa
ments were circulated among factory workers and in their
homes. This work will be continued for many years. The
method will also be followed in other metropolitan areas
such as Osaka and Nagoya.
4. Visual Aid Activities
Bible vans made visits to Tokaido, Koshin, Tohoku, and
Joetsu areas. They sold 3,281 Bibles and Testaments,
helping along the work of colporteurs in each area. Films
were shown at fifty places, and Bible Exhibitions were held
at thirty places. Key Bible scholars sent from the society
held Bible lecture meetings at ten places during the year.
5. 100,000 New Testaments to Indonesia
In 1961 a special gift of 10,000 copies of the New Testa
ment in Indonesian were sent to Indonesia. Again in 1962
the Japan Bible Society held a campaign for sending 100,000
copies to Indonesia, answering a Macedonian cry from the
churches there. This campaign was ended successfully,
and the society shipped 100,000 copies to Indonesia in
December of 1962. For this accomplishment thanks is
especially due to cooperation from members of the United
Bible Societies without whom the Japan Society could not
have attained its goal. The Japan Bible Society is especially
grateful for being able to share with other members in the
responsibility of presenting Scriptures to a brother society.
6. Bible Revision Committee Appointed
After eight years of thorough study and conversations it
160 REPORT
is felt there is a need for some revision of the Kogotai
(Colloquial) Bible in Japan. To do the revision, a trans
lation committee was selected from the board of directors.
This committee appointed two revision committees which
have now begun preliminary study :
(a) The Old Testament Committee
Dr. Senji Tsuru, Dr. Giichi Tezuka, The Rev. Toshio
Endo, Prof. Yoshiharu Sacon, Prof. Toru Yamazaki.
(b) The New Testament Committee
Dr. Shogo Yamaya, Dr. Takuo Matsumoto, Prof. Masashi
Takahashi, Prof. Masaichi Takemori, Prof. Yozo Seo.
7. Big Circulation of Christmas Portions
One of the outstanding phenomenon in post-war Japan
has continued to be the celebration of Christmas in both
secular organizations and homes. A " Christmas " mood
was again created through propaganda and decoration of
the department stores and shops. Many railway stations
put Christmas trees in their rooms. But these acts were
all done with no Christian understanding or reference to
the Bible.
To fill this vacant background and to give Christmas
celebration its true spiritual significance, the Japan Bible
Society enlarged its Christmas efforts by printing an
increased amount, 500,000 copies of a 4-page booklet
with the Christmas story and with an attractive picture
cover. Department stores and prominent book stores were
asked to circulate these to Christmas shoppers. Everywhere
bakeries advertised their annual " decoration cakes." Many
churches or Christian groups presented Christmas booklets
to bakeries to be presented to the buyers of the cakes.
Local churches asked that the Christmas booklets be dis
tributed at community Christmas celebrations which are
now held traditionally in many city auditoriums and schools.
Requests reached such high numbers that not all could be
JAPAN BIBLE SOCIETY 161
filled in 1962, but this type of distribution will be continued
each year.
So far there has been no general public awareness of
Easter or attention to Easter by stores or other groups.
Probably many years will be required before attention is
turned to it.
8. Delegates to the United Bible Societies and other
Meetings
General Secretary the Rev. T. Miyakoda attended the
meeting of the United Bible Societies' Standing Committee
in Stuttgart, Germany, October 25-November 8. En route
home he attended the Advisory Council Meeting of the
American Bible Society in New York. Secretary Niro
Suzuki also attended meetings on production management
and related fields at Stuttgart. On his return trip he visited
the British and Foreign Bible Society. Both returned with
a feeling of greater knowledge and of increased inspiration
for their task in making the Bible available to all people
in Japan.

YMCA
YMCA Background
In the year 1963, the National Committee of YMCA of
Japan celebrates the 60 th anniversary of its founding which
came through the union of two major movements, City
and Student YMCAs in 1903.
Since 1877, the Student Movement has been active among
students and the first City Association was founded in
Tokyo in 1880. At the time of the formation of the
National Committee, there were 59 Student Groups and 9
Associations in cities.
The Second World War had a tremendous effect upon the
life of all YMCAs in Japan. Six of twelve major YMCA
buildings were completely destroyed. Four more were badly
damaged. But the post-war recovery of the Movement
was almost miraculous and by 1949, Associations had been
reopened in 31 different cities with 83 full-time professional
staff members.
Present YMCA Situation
As of 1963, there are 34 City YMCAs. This does not
include YMCA branches in larger cities. The Student
Associations operate in 145 universities and 65 Hi-Y Clubs
are organized with 2,600 members in a National Hi-Y
Fellowship. The 34 active Y-Men's Clubs are serving the
established YMCAs as well as in the cities where no YMCA
is yet organized. Six more Y-Men's Clubs are being
organized.
Full membership is still limited to those who are members
YMCA . 163
of Protestant Churches. The total number of members is
27,632, including 7,156 women in 1962. In addition there
are 41,000 "education members" enrolled in YMCA
educational classes.
The professional staff numbers 129, assisted by two
fraternal secretaries, and 2,426 voluntary workers.
The programme areas may be classified as follows.
1. Student Work
The National Committee of Japan embraces the Student
YMCA as an integral part of its Movement. The Student
YMCA is affiliated with the World Student Christian
Federation. There are 145 Student Associations with
approximately 6,000 members. Fifteen Associations have
YMCA [Student Dormitories. Its extensive activities are
recognized as the leading ecumenical force among students.
During the past three years, in cooperation with the
churches a teaching program " Life and Mission of the
Church " was organized. Serving as a channel, the YMCA-
YWCA centralizes the concern of the churches for on-
campus student work. This cooperative program seeks
to develop programs and perspectives to strengthen the
Christian witness both in the university and in society.
The primary focus of the Student YMCAs is Bible Study
and its relevance to university, personal and group life
problems. The National Christian Scholars Fellowship with
430 professors was founded in 1962, and a program called
New Patterns of Social Service and Action is now taking
place as a student work example of developing program
with foreign students who are coming to Japan in increas
ing numbers.
The traditional Y. M. C. A. Summer Conference, its 71 st
year, was held at the Tozanso in August, 1962, with 213
students from both YMCA and YWCA. The theme of the
Conference of 1962 was " Present Society and Students ".
164 REPORT
International fellowship and cooperation among students
became particularly active in recent years, especially with
the Korean and Philippines Student Movements.
2. Boys Work
Under circumstances where boys and girls of school age
in Japan are forced into a heavy study program and are
also subject to pressure from difficult entrance examinations
to various upper levels in schools, the Boys Work of the
YMCAs of Japan is facing a difficult period. However, the
need of a fourfold program for boys and girls in such a
situation to develop Christian character is increasingly
important. The proportion of boy's participation in YMCA
programs is less than that of other ages, but the whole
movement recognizes its essential importance as the basis
of education for developing a whole man in later life.
In the year of 1962, the sister YMCA relationship of
Honolulu-Hiroshima and San Francisco-Osaka made possible
a special project of international understanding. These two
YMCAs received the visit of groups of high school students
from the two cities in the U.S.
3. Leadership Training
Leadership training for both professional staff and lay
members is the fmain concern of the whole Movement.
The Institute for Research and Training of the National
Committee has already trained 69 professional secretaries
during its 10 years of existence. The National Lay -leaders
Study Conference is held every year as a program of the
City department of the National YMCA and each local
Association also holds leaders' training courses regularly.
4. Religious Activities
With Christians numbering less than 0.7% of the total
population, and with the percentage of Christian members
YMCA 165
in the YMCA less than 20%, the religious emphasis program
remains the main concern of the Movement. Bible Study
Groups and religious discussion groups are well attended.
The Week of Prayer is annually observed in all YMCAs
in cooperation with the YMCAs.
A special study on " Ecumenism in the YMCA Movement "
is taking place by world-wide efforts.
5. Educational Programme
About 41,000 people are enrolled in the YMCA Schools
in 23 different Associations for supplementary formal edu
cation in languages, typing, bookkeeping, preparation for
college entrance examinations etc. Several YMCAs have
International Hotel Service Schools which train young
people in the skills required for hotel work. A National
Speech Contest is sponsored yearly, with full participation
of local Associations. Some of the secretaries is charge
of this program wrere sent in 1962 to Michigan University
to study new methods of English teaching.
6. Physical Education and Recreation
A pioneer in the physical education field, the Japanese
YMCA offers a steadily increasing number of well-planned
indoor and outdoor activities and is taking a leading part
in training leaders in this area. A National YMCA
Sports Festival is held annually.
In the National Committee, a special cooperating com
mittee for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics was organized.
The YMCA also takes a leading part in the field of
healthy recreation and has contributed much to the popu
larity of folk dancing, both indoor and outdoor games,
group singing, handicrafts, and many hobby and interest
groups.
7. Camping
There are 13 well-equipped camp-sites maintained by the
166 REPORT
Japanese YMCA. Over 90,000 young people were served
in 1962 in this program and the skills and techniques of
' Y ' camp leaders are recognized generally as the top-level
pioneering leadership of the whole country. Every year
different types of Work Camps are organized at home and
abroad. A special Camping for Crippled Children program
is carried out by major Associations, and is recognized as
a service which the YMCA is particularly equipped to
operate.
In the summer of 1963, the Student YMCA of the U.S.A.
will send 20 selected students to Japan for a Work Camp.
These will serve with the same number of Japanese students
in a four weeks program to build the foundation of a new
retreat center of the Tokyo YMCA.
8. Group Activities
The clubs and interest groups as well as discussion groups
which are based on the principles of Group Work and
Group Dynamics, and usually meet weekly, are one of the
most important activities of the Young Adult Work of the
Japanese YMCA. Participants are anxious to get more
skill and knowledge from interest groups which include
camera, drama and music. This type of programme has
been changing gradually to study-centered group activities
in recent years. Groups with the same interest on different
Associations are organizing several nation-wide programmes,
such as National Record Concerts and National Camera
Contests.
9. Publications
The National Committee of YMCAs of Japan operates a
Publication Department which publishes the monthly YMCA
organ as well as books on religion, leadership, manuals for
leaders, and leaflets. One of the books published in 1961,
" God and Man " was the best seller among Christian books
YMCA 167
of the year. The publications on Christianity are read by
both Student and City YMCA leaders as well as church
leaders, and leadership training publications are welcomed
by many other youth organizations. A book on " physical
fitness " was also published recently.
10. International Relations
The newly reorganized International Relations Department
of the National Committee now has a nation-wide operation.
Its present secretary recently returned after five years
fraternal service in Brazil. The extension of Inter- movement
Aid is one of the concerns of the Japanese YMCA and
this Committee presently plans to send a secretary for work
in Lima, Peru, as a fraternal secretary. A special financial
campaign to raise funds to support this project is beginning
in May, 1963. International understanding and cooperation
is becoming increasingly important among local Associations
with several YMCAs organizing their International Relations
Committees on the local level.
11. Financial Campaign
In 1962, for the first time in the history of the Japanese
YMCA, a National Fund Raising Campaign was organized
to raise funds for 11 new buildings with an objective of
$2,225,000. Committees on the national and local level were
formed with a special Supporting Committee composed of
more than 200 leading businessmen. One of the projects
will be the Saito Memorial Hall at the Tozanso Retreat
Center of the National YMCA.
12. Extention Work
A special effort is made to strengthen smaller YMCAs
through " The Coordinating Committee for Extension ".
Larger Associations are sharing the expenses for this new
project and a full-time secretary was appointed as a field
168 REPORT
worker to help smaller YMCAs. One of the major projects
of this Committee is maintenance of two professional
secretaries to establish YMCA work in the area of North
Kyushu where five different industrial cities are to be united
in the near future. One member of the staff for Student
Work is also supported by this Committee.

JAPAN YWCA
The fiscal year of 1962 was the first year for the central
committee members and the General Secretary of the
Japan YWCA, who had been elected at the national general
convention in the previous autumn, to put into practice the
following goals which had been adopted at the same con
vention as the basic policies of the YWCA to be executed
in the coming three years.
The Basic Policies of the YWCA (1962 through 1964)
We make " Respect for Humanity " the basic principle of
the YWCA movement.
(1) We strengthen the " YWCA Membership Movement "
and make strenuous efforts to establish it firmly in the
contemporary Japanese society.
(2) In our activity we place emphasis on the healthy
personal development of young people.
Particularly for this purpose, we unite our efforts in
training youth leaders.
(3) We renew our efforts for the cause of " Peace."
—We reaffirm the statements by the World YWCA
concerning its attitude toward " Peace " issued
in both 1955 and 1959.
—Every chapter of the YWCA takes part in the
special study on Peace and also studies about the
Japanese Constitution. Every chapter will come
to the next general convention bringing with it
the result of its study on these questions.
(4) We positively promote " Mutual Assistance " between
YWCA-related organizations.
170 REPORT
The theme of the first Central Committee meeting held
immediately after the general convention was an inquiry
into the character and responsibilities of the YWCA as a
laymen's movement. This theme was taken up in order
to consider all these basic policies from the standpoint of
the YWCA as a Christian group, as a laymen's movement,
and, above all, as a women's organization.
Questions which were considered and examined carefully
at this meeting included how to conduct religious education
in the YWCA as a group comprising not only Christians
but many non -Christians and Christian seekers ; its relation
ship with churches ; how to deal with the new religions
which are recently permeating the masses with considerable
influence ; and establishment of faith and strengthening the
power of execution of faith of the formal members who
should be the nuclei of the YWCA movement. Other
questions that were discussed in connection with the theme
of the meeting were : " Where is the immovable foundation
for the YMCA to stand on when it tries to wrestle with
difficult social problems ?", " In order to make itself a more
powerful movement, how should the YMCA, a minor group
at present in this country, establish its mutual assistance
programs and where should it find the spiritual ground of
such programs ?".
Projects that have been put into action as a result of
these elaborate discussions and considerations include :
(i) New YWCA Secretary Training Meeting (April
1962)
This meeting was held for a week in order to train 26
new college graduates who desired to become YWCA
secretaries. Under the theme " Calling to Secretarial Duties
of the YWCA," these young trainees concentrated on
meditation, studies and discussions in order to implant in
themselves, above all, the basic attitude of YWCA secreta
ries as good and useful workers. With their spirit for the
JAPAN YWCA 17 1
mission refreshed and inspired, these ambitious trainees left
for their new posts all over the nation.
(2) Second National Conference of YWCA Members
(August 1962)
Beginning several years earlier this triennial conference
has been held for YWCA members in general as a valuable
opportunity to comprehend through prayer and study how
to follow the authentic life as YWCA members. It is
characteristic of this conference that it is open to any
members who desire to attend. In order to have as many
members as possible attend the conference, the prepa
ration committee was set up for this time in a local
YWCA— the Kyoto YWCA. A total of 250 members from
all over Japan participated in the conference but we must
not forget the important fact that the number of other
members who had acted as promotors for the conference
in local YWCAs amounted to about 100.
Based on the assumption that YWCA as a laymen's
movement is " volunteers' activities " through which its
members serve both God and the people, the theme of the
conference was to explore what the concept of " volunteers "
means.
The YWCA movement was initiated 100 years ago by
two devoted Christian women with " volunteer spirit." The
spirit is still aflame in we who have inherited the movement.
But it is our duty to find out the most effective ways to
give shape to this spirit in the complicated contemporary
social structures and organizations. At the same time it
is essential for us to keep this spirit constantly aflame in
our hearts. All the participants earnestly sought the
answers to these difficult questions through Bible study,
lectures and discussions, and their understanding was
deepened. All these participants, after returning to their
local areas, are not only fulfilling their responsibilities for
communicating the discussions and resolutions made at the
172 REPORT
conference to local members by holding district meetings,
but also are practically wrestling with local problems with
their volunteer spirit.
(3) " Let's Study the Constitution" Movement (April
1962 to March 1963)
To make a study of the Japanese Constitution was also
one of the essential tasks for YWCA members, as well as
the task of exploring how they should be living as authentic
YWCA members, since the Constitution itself is deeply
related to our basic policies advocating " Respect for
Humanity " and " Effort for Peace." The movement was
set up so that each individual member might think as
her own problem what we should do as Christians as well
as YWCA members for the cause of respect for humanity
and in an effort for Peace in connection with the
fundamental spirit of the Constitution.
As the first attempt in this line, an audio-visual program
entitled " The Fortress of Peace " was composed with the
intention of making all its members well acquainted with
the Constitution. As produced and acted by the members
themselves, the program was shown at several YWCAs in
Tokyo as well as in other areas. " The Song of the Con
stitution," with both words and music also by the members,
is now being sung and spread from mouth to mouth among
the members.
In the YWCA neighborhood associations, which consists
mostly of housewife members, and in the YWCA clubs,
which are centered around young people and high school
student members, were conducted studies on the Constitution
based on the texts prepared by the YWCA Committee on
Social Problems, although there is diversity of themes and
methods of study according to the size of groups and the
difference of areas.
The above-mentioned committee, referring to the results
of all these studies by the members, and after strenuous
JAPAN YWCA 173
studies and investigations produced two sets of educational
material entitled " Let's Study the Constitution " and " The
History of Ten Years Around the Constitution." These sets
of material, are being used by the members as a text for
study on the Constitution.
(4) Mutual Assistance Projects (April 1962 to March
1963)
Efforts were made occasionally in fiscal year 1962 to
create a sense of solidarity between particularly domestic
YWCA-related associations, both large and small in size, so
that they would extend mutual assistance to each other as
branches stemming from a single trunk.
Many activities are now executed domestically as well as
internationally in accordance with the plans for the fiscal
years 1962 and 1963 with funds to be collected through the
members' offerings and contributions.
Centered around the members scattered throughout the
country, pioneering efforts are being made to form new
groups in many areas in order to fulfill " their responsibilities
and missions for the cause of YWCA as a laymen's meet
ing." Leaders are also endeavoring to integrate all these
separate efforts into a single nation-wide movement with
the cooperation of every local YWCA.
(5) Study on " How Religious Education in YWCA Should
be Carried On."
The YWCA's Religious Education Study Group is making
Continuing studies, with the cooperation of both the YWCA
Central Committee and local YMCAs, in order to find out
a proper method to make the Bible, the book of witness
of Christian faith, accessible even to beginners as well as
the best ways of Bible study for those who have had long
years of Christian experience to refresh their spirit daily.
Although Bible study is conducted at every school YWCA,
it is strongly desired that earnestness to study the Bible be
enabled to permeated to every member at local YWCAs
174 REPORT
in all cities.
As all the above-mentioned activities are to be continued
over one-year period, the second Central Committee meet
ing, under the theme " The Life of YWCA to Reach All
Members Even at Terminal YMCAs," is making efforts in
thorough execution of this theme. The results of these
efforts will surely be maintained in the next year.

JAPAN W.C.T.U,
1. New Officers Elected after Convention
Following the Annual Convention in 1962, the 15 new
trustees held their first executive meeting and elected these
officers :
President Mrs. Ochimi Kubushiro
Vice-President Mrs. Kuni Sawano
Corresponding Sec Mrs. Masa Takegami
replaced by Mrs. Masako Munakata
Recording Sec Mrs. O. Kubushiro
Treasurer Miss Yame Obata
When Mrs. Takegami passed away in June, Mrs. Muna
kata was shosen to succeed her as National Corresponding
Secretary.
2. Delegates to World Convention
The National Convention selected four delegates to the
World W. C. T. U. Convention in New Delhi, India, 1962 :
Deputy Mrs. M. Munakata
Nothern District Rep Mrs. S. Kondo
Young people's Branch ...Mrs. E. Nagano
Peace Dept. Rep Mrs. H. Nonomiya
Those four attended the 22nd W.C.T.U. convention and
conveyed our greetings. They also extended an invitation
for the 1965 convention to be held in Japan.
3. Internal Affairs
This year leaders attempted to visit each local union
during its District Annual Meeting. Special interest was
176 REPORT
shown in a seminar, conducted in each of the four districts,
which attracted from 40 to 50 participants. The past year's
work was reviewed and new projects in Purity and in Peace
Movements as well as Bible Study were endorsed. In the
past these have been, for the most part, held in the summer
in such places as Bandai San or Morinoiye, and they served
as both study and recreation opportunities.
4. Use of Building Dedicated in 1959
The building which we dedicated in 1959 is now entering
its third year of use. Both the Young Women's House and
the Headquarters have been maintained on a paying basis.
We are especially grateful that we can entertain local
members in our building. Our members, loan of ¥ 7,500,000
($208,500) has been paid annually.
5. Guests from Abroad
Both before and after the Third Convention we welcomed
guests from Canada, Australia, and the U.S.A. and had a
happy time together.
6. Temperance Progress
Progress in temperance work may be noted by the
Drunkard Protection Law which we helped get passed a
year ago. We now celebrate the 40th year since we were
able to get the Minors Protection Law, but the problem of
" adult drinking " could not be touched before. The
Drunkards Protection Law is the first step toward this ;
and we are now concerned with the terrible disaster which
drinking brings to home life.
7. Prostitution
Since the law regarding Prostitution was passed in 1956,
law enforcement restricting prostitution has been aided.
Now we are seeking to build a permanent home for girls
JAPAN W.C.T.U. 177
who are broken down through prostitution. The govern
ment has endorsed our plan, and with a large lot (30,000
tsubo) available we are moving to realize this plan.
8. Peace Movement
We continue to work together with all Christians, members
of all religions, and others as we seek as we have never
done before to bring peace on earth.

THE AUDIO VISUAL ACTIVITIES
COMMISSION
On April 1, 1963, AVACO entered its fifteenth year of
life and activity. The preceding twelve months showed
growth and expansion of program and budget at most points.
Radio and Television
Under the chairmanship of the Rev. Takihiko Yamakita,
the Broadcasting Committee continued its planning of ac
tivities, including liaison on programming with the govern
ment networks (NHK) which resulted in seventy-five nation
wide Christian broadcasts over those facilities. AVACO
continued producing its own weekly evangelistic program,
" Guidepost of Life ", which brings in one of the best mail
responses of all religious broadcasts, and also continued to
produce for the United Church the weekly program, " Friend
of the Heart ". The seventh annual Christmas candlelight
service was televised from Aoyama Gakuin Chapel on^Christ-
mas eve in Tokyo. Research activities, centering in the
annual meeting of Christian broadcasters, were held in
March.
The AVACO Drama Group is in its seventh year of pro
fessional level training. In addition to recording for AVACO
the group produced a play which was performed in seven
localities.
Film Production
The TV Film Committee was ably chaired by the Rev.
James McAlpine. The first production, a forty minute black
THH AUDIO VISUAL ACTIVITIES COMMISSION 179
and white dramatic film, In Love of Life, costing $7,000,
was completed in February of 1962. This was received
enthusiastically as a genuinely " Japanese " product. On the
basis of study of this film a second script, concerning the
relationship of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, has been
approved for production in 1963.
Projected Aids
The Rev. Atsumi Tasaka led the Projected Aids Com
mittee. The lending library at AVACO continued making
available at low cost to all comers films, filmstrips, non-
projected aids, tapes, and projectors. The library staff also
counselled with visitors on a wide variety of purchasing,
repair and operation problems. Effectiveness of film evan
gelism took a significant step ahead during the year through
the addition of out-standing films to the library : In Love
of Life, The Power of the Resurrection, Albert Schweitzer,
and The Mark of the Hawk. Through the help of the Rev.
Robert Bruns, evangelistic pamphlets relating to the main
films were printed and used widely. These films, along with
about eighty others, are available in Japanese lip-synchroniz
ed sound. During the year Mr. Nakanishi led eight train
ing workshops for projector operators in different parts of
Japan.
Non-projected Aids and Publications
The Non-projected Aids and Drama Committee continued
to be chaired by Miss Sumiko Ono, and concentrated through
a sub-committee on planning the production of Christian
kamishibai. Because of the initial success of the AVACO
Christmas kamishibai, The Babe in the Manger, the com
mittee drew up a list of priority titles and considered various
scripts to allow kamishibai to be issued as rapidly as funds
permit.
The second of the series appeared in March, 1963, entitled
180 REPORT
the Resurrection. Overseas editions of both without Japanese
characters were produced and several hundred copies of the
Christmas kamishibai have been sold abroad. It is expected
that because of the attractive color of the cardboard picture
stories and the low price (one dollar for twelve frames),
these will be widely distributed and used throughout the
world.
The AV curriculum handbooks published four times a
year have been useful, but it was decided to attempt to
issue a kind of handbook which would be of use for a longer
period of time. Consequently, it was decided to concentrate
each handbook on providing all the information, audio-
visually speaking, about one subject or season of the church's
life. The first of the new series, consequently, has been
titled, All about Easter. By remaining " up to date " for
five years, this series should, like the handbook series, be
more economically self-supporting.
The other main activity of the Non-projected Aids Com
mittee was the fourth annual publication of the Bible picture
card series accompanying the NCC kindergarten curriculum.
Thirty thousand sets of these cards were sold, illuminated
kamishibai and picture stories (ebanashi) were also added
to the central lending library.
The thirteenth annual national workshop this year again
took the form of a joint conference with the NCC Church
School Department and brought together over four hundred
and fifty students and staff for four days. In addition,
AVACO leaders participated in twenty other regional work
shops and meetings around the country besides projector
workshops.
Research
In the field of research AVACO took one daring step
forward by putting its own capital into the production of
one hundred sample 16 mm. filmstrip projectors for the
THE AUDIO VISUAL ACTIVITIES COMMISSION 181
purpose of getting this miniature form of filmstrip projection
tested. Selling for fifteen dollars with a sample filmstrip
these projectors have been distributed abroad and are now
being tested. 16 mm. filmstrips are believed suitable for
small groups and cost only a fifth as much as standard size
35mm. filmstrips.
Cataloging of Biblical AV materials collected from all
over the world was completed and AVACO now has the
most comprehensive collection of filmstrips and non-project
ed aids on the Bible located any place in the world. Cur
riculum materials are now being collected for comparative
study of the methods of integration of AV aids into church
school study.
Commercial Operations
AVACO continued to serve, through its Executive Direc
tor, Mathew Ogawa, as the Asia Office for the Broadcast
ing and Audio Visual Aids Committee of the East Asia
Christian Conference. In this connection, editing and sound
of the EACC film were completed in January, 1963 and the
film shipped to New York for printing. Twenty minutes
in color, Witnesses Together, was shot in nine countries of
Asia and tells the story of the beginning and work of the
EACC. AVACO also supervised the editing of the EACC
hymnal which is being printed in Japan and is to be in
publication by about July 1, 1963.
In the last Year AVACO received some 1,200 letters from
overseas and in reply provided both advice and services.
A wide variety of materials and equipment were exported,
including a truck, a motorcycle and a motorized plow to
the Philippines and a large order of tape recorders to Korea.
The Executive Director, during the year, travelled abroad
a number of times in his official relationship to AVACO,
to the World Association for Christian Broadcasting, the
Cooperative Committee on Inter-continental Broadcasting
182 REPORT
and other organizations.
Many persons from overseas visited AVACO, including
three from Taiwan and one from Korea who were in re
sidence for extended periods of training in audio-visuals and
radio.
NO. 8
THE NIPPON CHRISTIAN ACADEMY
In the fiscal year 1962 the Nippon Christian Academy
(NCA) sponsored or co-sponsored 51 meetings with an
aggregate number of 1,882 people participing in these
meetings. All these meetings were held in conjunction with
outsiders, and if various internal gatherings, training meet
ings, preparatory talks for these meetings, and follow up
meetings were added, the number of meetings would total
more.
The purpose of NCA, as indicated by Dr. Schmidt, the
founder of the movement, is in a word " Creating a Human
Bridge." Although its fundamental or ultimate goal is to
preach the Gospel, NCA does not take up such a self-
complacent method of evangelism as is adopted by today's
churches, particularly those in Japan. That is to say, NCA
starts its activity by offering to all people of different
opinions and occupations a wideopen " space " where they
can " encounter " each other for free and constructive
discussion transcending the difference of their thoughts,
creeds and opinions. We can say then that this movement
terminates at this point of offering a meeting place rather
than starts by offering such a place.
This is because we believe that unless the movement is
based upon the fact that men " encounter " each other,
namely, men " get acquainted " with each other in the
correct sense of the word, it is absolutely impossible for
us to establish the Kingdom of God on earth.
Although only a few years have passed since it was first
introduced into Japan, it may be said that the Christian
Academy movement, having moved through the period of
184 REPORT
its early pioneering, has now entered the initial stage of
its full-fledged activities since last year.
In January 1962, NCA had for the first time in its history
a full-time leader, was later given another leader — and
secured many " friends of the Academy " in many areas
of Japan. Its central office was set up in Tokyo and an
activity office was placed in Kyoto. The movement has
developed so remarkably that it has now more than ten
full-time staff workers. In the summer of 1963 NCA's
assembly hall, the Ohiso House, will be completed on the
Ohiso Beach, a place within one hour's train ride from
Tokyo and one famous for its scenic beauty. Various
activities have been energetically and successfully conducted
to raise the construction funds.
Perhaps it is well to explain Tagung, a German term for
conference, as it is used in the case of the Christian
Academy movement — a Tagung usually starts with a lecture
on its theme by a carefully selected lecturer, and on the
basis of its content all participants enter the discussion.
A Tagung is usually held at one particular place where all
participants stay together for several days as far as
circumstances permit.)
Tagungs (conferences), seminars and lecture meetings
which were held last year include the following :
Theological seminars, theological lecture meetings, busi
ness managers' Tagung, lecture meetings on labor problems,
seminars on youth problems, student Tagung, Japan-U. S.
joint round-table conferences on the problem of women
and homes, study meetings on social problems, consultations
for women, round- table "conferences for pastors and laymen,
Tagung on youth problems, Tagung for both Japanese and
German politicians, conferences for young church members,
Tagung for high school teachers, meetings in commemo
ration of the opening of the Kyoto Shugakuin House,
conferences for the managers of big business enterprises,
THE NIPPON CHRISTIAN ACADEMY 185
a seminar on Christian problems, a conference in prepa
ration for the visit of a group to Korea, a conference for
professors at Christian universities, a management- labor
joint Tagung of Fujii-Daimaru Department Store, a Tagung
for labor union leaders, a seminar on students and labor,
a conference for laymen, a Tagung for Christian scholars,
a training meeting for discussion leaders, a Tagung for
salaried men, a Tagung at the Tokyo-Chiba industrial area,
a Tagung for journalists, a meeting in commemoration of
the commencement of the construction of the Ohiso House,
a training meeting for laymen engaged in occupation
evangelism, conference for pastors engaged in industrial
evangelism, and a meeting of the Academy Advent.

CHRISTIAN LITERATURE SOCIETY
OF JAPAN
Two most important enterprises of the Christian Litera-
true Society of Japan (CLSS) are (1) a Central Library of
Christianity, and (2) publication of Christian literature.
Formerly the library was housed in the Kyo Bun Kwan
Building, Ginza, Tokyo, but it was closed down later and
was reopened after 3 years in 1958 at Nishiki-cho, Kanda,
Tokyo. During the last 5 years of its existence, the library
underwent marked improvement each year. Even though
any person may use this library freely, the number of the
users is regrettably not so great.
This library contains a large number of rare and classical
books on Christianity, such as " Kirishitan Yuraiki " (History
of Christianity, 1837), and " Nambanji Kohaiki " (Rise and
Fall of Nambanji Temple, 1648) More than 100 periodicals,
Ranging from Catholic to non-church movement, are also
kept. Newly-published books are collected within certain
limits. The library has more than 5,000 books published
after World War II.
The Central Library will be steadily improved and en
larged in the future so as to fulfil its mission as the only
information center of Protestantism in this country. It
much appreciates the donations of rare and precious books
from any person, if they lie unused in his rooms. In fact,
many users of the library donate many books to it each
month.
The publishing enterprise of C.L.SJ. is also very active.
The Bible Concordance (B5, 1570 pp., ¥4,500) was published
CHRISTIAN LITERATURE SOCIETY OF JAPAN 187
in June, 1956.
Other major publications of this organization are : Kanzo
Uchimura's Commentaries on the Bible in 17 volumes
(already completed) ; and Kanzo Uchimura's Miscellaneous
Works in 25 volumes (Volume 16 already distributed).
The One- Volume Dictionary of Christianity, to be publish
ed in June, 1963, is a momentous enterprise of this
organization. Started by the Kirisutokyo Daijiten Planning
Committee of the Commission on Christian Literature, NCC,
the editing work was taken over in 1961 by C. L. S. J and
was at last completed this year. Similar dictionaries
hitherto published in Japan are " Kirisutokyo Daijiten "
(1907), and "Kirisutokyo Hyakkajiten" (Encyclopedia of
Christianity, 1938). It took 8 years to complete this
history-making One-Volume Dictionary of Christianity. All
first-class theologians of Japan were mobilized to prepare
its text. 10,000 entries on this dictionary are the result of
careful selection and screening out of 30,000 articles by 360
writers and 40 members of editorial staff. It contains not
only articles on Protestantism, but also articles on Catholi
cism and Greek Church, so that the contents are really
ecumenical. Its 1,500 pages have 600 superb photographies
and illustrations. At the end is a chronological table of
Christian history. There is also a plan to publish the
Japanese translation of Kittel's New Testament Dictionary.

JAPAN COMMISSION ON CHRISTIAN
LITERATURE
1. General Survey
Literature evangelism in Japan is coming into a new
age. Difficulties in publishing Christian books have been
gradually overcome, and now the most urgent problem is
not " how to publish Christian literature," but " how to
distribute it."
Under such circumstances, our Commission has placed its
main emphasis upon the distribution program. We are
making a market research of Christian publications in co
operation with the Association of Christian Publication and
Sales, to find out the present situation of the distribution
route and to establish better sales organizations throughout
the nation.
2. Committee on Literature Distribution Route
We are now doing the following research.
1) Readers of Christian Magazines (completed) — (see
the appended papers)
2) Churches (in progress)
3) Christian Schools (in progress)
4) Christian Bookstores (in progress)
5) Secular Bookstores (in progress)
When this research is finished, we will make a concrete
plan to strengthen the distribution route of Christian litera
ture. Probably it will be completed by next May.
3. The Dictionary of Christianity
Our editorial preparation was completed in March, 1962,

THE CHURCH SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
OF NCCJ.
Special features of the activities conducted by the Depart
ment beyond the current activities include curriculum
development and teacher training programs for the year
1962. These might be characterised as the preparation
period for the new structural system which began in the
latter part of the year.
Work in Christian Education has been under development
since the early days of the National Sunday School Associ
ation, and through the days since it has become the
Department of Church School of the National Christian
Council of Japan. But in recent years there has arisen a
deeper concern through out the world in both theological
and practical interests in Christian education and a demand
for the training of the leaders on a higher level, taking
in various problems on human relations. Our department
has also taken a preparatory step toward the survey of
the actual situation of the Church Schools in the country
and the development of the program in the light of the
new situation and new developments in the field of Church
Education.
To the third World Institute on Christian Education held
in Belfast, Ireland, last summer, we sent three delegates ;
the Revs. Takihiko Yamakita, Shinji Iwamura and Atsumi
Tasaka, besides Toshio Ota. In addition to the World
Institute, the Rev. Ota went to the World Theological
Education Seminar held in the same city on June 30-July
7 and also attended the Consultation on Christian Education
THE CHURCH SCHOOL DEPARTMENT OF NCCJ. 193
of Children. The Rev. Yamakita attended the WCCESSA
Quadrennial Assembly on July 25-26. The Institute especial
ly emphasized two points : the field of Christian Education
should not be limited only to the children, boys and girls,
but it should cover the entire life's span from childhood to
old age ; and the educational work of the Church is not a
part of Church activities but it is the very ministry of the
whole Church which is the community of those called by
God and scattered to the end of the world to be His
witnesses.
The General Meeting of the Board of Directors of the
Department which met in November heard the report of
the delegates to the World Institute and voted on the
proposition to change the name of the Department to
" The Church Education Department " as well as to call
the National Convention (which has met 34 times biannually
since the days of the National Sunday School Association)
"The National Convention on Christian Education", with
delegates to come not only from the church schools but
also from all those institutions which undertake Christian
education in schools, kindergartens, social work, and homes.
This was held on May 3-4, 1963 at the Shoin Jogakuin in
Kobe (Episcopal Church related school) with 1,300 delegates
participating in the Convention theme of "Nurture of the
Generation who Shoulder the Burden of Tomorrow."
The conference of the chairmen and general secretaries
of affiliating denominations, which was held previous to the
board meeting, heard the reports of the four delegates to
the World Institute and discussed the common problems
on the remarkable decrease of the church school children,
on the youth work and Christian education in the Church,
which, in conclusion, brought out the desirability of holding
a top-level leadership training and study course. It was
agreed by the leaders of the denominations that this course
will be held in 1963.
194 REPORT
Lastly, on the administrative side, we have been able to
get rid of the financial debts which have been carried since
the Tokyo World Convention in 1958, after those difficult
years of a straightened financial situation. This will free
us to go forward with a more aggressive program for the
coming years.
The office of associate secretary by a missionary staff
which had been left vacant since 1958, has been filled by
Mrs. L. N. Thurber who will render us much efficient service
to strengthen our active program.
The Department enjoys the association of the following
denominations besides the fellowship of local churches of
many other denominations in our local units, in the administ
ration of our work :
The Church of Christ in Japan, Japan Episcopal Church,
Japan Evangelical Lutheran Church, Southern Baptist Con
vention in Japan, American Baptist-related Churches in
Japan, Japan Nazarene Church, Japan Free Methodist
Church, Japan Salvation Army, Korean Church in Japan.

THE JAPAN CHRISTIAN MEDICAL
ASSOCIATION (JCMA)
Satoru Sato
The Japan Christian Medical Association was officially
organized in January 1949 as the grown-up body of the
Japan YMCA Medical Society which was formed in Kyoto
back in 1939. The society made some overseas evangelistic
efforts through medical practices in 1939 by dispatching a
team of doctors to Wuhu, China. During the last war,
because of the shortage of doctors, most of whom were
drafted as medical officers by military authorities, the so
ciety had no chance to hold its regular meetings. After
the war, Christian doctors, nurses, medical students and
others, who were engaged in medical services, assembled
and officially organized the present association, JCMA, at
Kinugasa Hospital in Yokosuka in January, 1949. The total
number of its members is approximately 950 at present,
including about 450 doctors, 200 nurses, 180 medical students,
50 nursing students, 30 health nurses and 70 other medical
workers. It is organized, of course, on a nation-wide scale
with 15 local chapters including one in Sapporo in the north
and one in Kagoshima in the south.
JCMA joined the National Christian Council of Japan in
March 1956. Getting in touch with Christian medical as
sociations in many countries of the world, JCMA is now
going to send a delegation to the first International Christian
Medical Conference to be held at Amsterdam in June 1963.
1. 14th JCMA General Assembly
On August 18 and 19, 1962, JCMA held its 14th general
196 REPORT
assembly at Tozanso Hall at Gotemba in Shizuoka Prefec
ture. From all the 15 local chapters 60 doctors, 28 nurses,
47 medical and nursing students, and 19 others attended
and discussed the theme " A Christian Understanding of the
111." In this general assembly there is no functional distinc
tion made between doctors, nurses and students. The as
sembly is intended to give all participants an opportunity
to consider the direction they should take and deepen their
fellowship. Although it is interdenominational and is attend
ed by people of different groups including the Episcopal
Church, the United Church of Christ (Kyodan), even the
Non-Church Movement group and others, no one finds any
barriers. Officials of the association such as the president,
secretary and treasurer are elected and its yearly budget
and settled accounts are discussed and given approval at
this general assembly.
2. Fourth Expanded Standing Committee
The association holds the Expanded Standing Committee
meeting annually on January 14 and 15 with an attendance
of about 70 officials from all its local chapters for the
purpose of deliberating in detail its projects, financial mat
ters, and overseas medical cooperation. In 1962 the fourth
meeting was held in Tokyo.
3. Publication of the Monthly Organ " Medicine and the
Gospel "
JCMA has never ceased to publish its monthly organ
magazine Medicine and the Gospel for the past 15 years,
through which it presents its opinions and discusses various
problems. The magazine also serves for facilitating com
munication between the association members and for offer
ing opportunity and space for mutual discussions. Main
subjects dealt with in this magazine for the fiscal 1962 are
as follows : " New Concept of Overseas Service," " Should
THE JAPAN CHRISTIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION 197
the Doctor Tell the Patient of His Coming Death?" "Pro
blems in Nursing," and " Problems of Employed Doctors."
4. Field Work
For the past 14 years, mainly during summer vacations,
medical teams made up of doctors, nurses, students, and
others, have continuously visited villages and isolated islands
which have no doctors. This project offers these partici
pants both opportunity to exert their utmost efforts and a
place in which they can learn how to serve the unfortunate
by sharing labor and various troubles.
(1) Field Work centered around the Seirei Recuperation
House, Hamamatsu City
From August 22 to 25, 1962, 31 medical workers includ
ing doctors, nurses and medical students, engaged in health
preserving activities in doctorless areas around the Seirei
Recuperation House. In the evening they met to talk toge
ther under the leadership of Dr. Susumu Akaboshi, director
of the House. The participants represented six local chap
ters.
(2) Field Work in Kikaigajima Island
From July 28 to August 10, doctors, nurses and students
participated in medical service in Kikaigajima Island and
helped the local church with its expansion. These workers
were from five local chapters.
(3) Traveling Medical Service in the Tohoku Area
From July 25 to August 12, in cooperation with the Japan
Church World Service, JCMA members traveled throughout
the Tohoku area by the mobile medical center provided by
the former, for offering medical services to pioneering
farmers in newly developed agricultural districts. Doctors,
nurses and students who participated in this project were
from four local chapters.
(4) Not only in summertime, but regularly throughout the
year, members in the local chapters are serving those who
198 REPORT
live in pioneer farms and slums.
5. Activities of Local Chapters
In most of the local chapters monthly meetings are held.
In these meetings, members are given chances to make
reports of their own medical studies, and they hold also
Bible study classes, listen to lectures and have round-table
discussions.
6. Overseas Medical Cooperative Service
The previous body of JCMA, the Japan YMCA Medical
Society, sent a team of doctors to Central China in 1939.
Then it became extremely difficult for any civilian doctors
to go abroad because of the war. Fifteen years after the
end of the last war, one of the divisions of JCMA which
had been engaged in overseas medical cooperative service,
was reorganized in May 1960 into a juridical person under
the title " The Japan Overseas Christian Medical Coopera
tive Service " (JOCS) . Supported widely by Protestant de
nominations in general, the new organization undertakes
mainly two jobs, dispatching overseas doctors and nurses
to other countries and inviting doctors from Asian countries
to Japan to provide advanced study in medicine. Although
JOCS is completely separate from JCMA, its operation is
performed by the latter's members and it is also supported
financially by them. Among those who have been dispatched
abroad by JOCS since its founding are Dr. Takeshi Ume-
yama and his family to Indonesia in January 1961 ; Dr.
Noboru Iwamura and his family, Misses Yoshiko Ueda and
Junko Kawashima, nurses, to Nepal in January 1962 ; and
Dr. Kazuo Saikawa and his family, Miss Chizue Ando, a
nurse, to Taiwan in September 1962. They are reported to
be serving the people there actively.
JOCS has so far invited two medical socialists from South
east Asia : one is Dr. Young Fa Chau, a specialist in leprosy
THE JAPAN CHRISTIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION 199
treatment, from Taiwan, who has been studying at Tokyo
University since December 1961 ; and the other is Dr.
Leoncio Yoshikawa Carlin, a surgeon from the Philippines,
who has been engaged in research at St. Luke Hospital in
Tokyo since July 1962.
Although Japan has reached the present level of medical
knowledge for the past 100 years with the assistance of
Western countries, it has rarely had chances to extend
voluntarily its medical services to other countries. Based
on the concept " the world's churches for the world's chur
ches," we believe that it is a mission for us Japanese
Christian medical workers to extend medical cooperation, as
much as we can to the countries where medical services
are less available. We believe also that there are some
areas in medical practices where Japan, as a medically
" middle -advanced " country with a deeper understanding of
various problems can do more in services than Western
countries where medicine is extremely advanced.
Until those Southeast Asian countries which have restrict
ed medical services attain a high level in practical medicine,
we must cooperate with them as much as we can. And
such cooperation cannot be achieved unless all Christian
medical workers of different denominations unite. Not a
single denomination nor a sect alone can move ahead. At
the same time, we must recognize that Japan has also at
tained economic prosperity so that it is able to extend
medical assistance to these countries without financial aid
from Western countries. Japan is blessed with many doctors
in proportion to the total population comparable with
such medically advanced countries as the United States or
the United Kingdom. In view of these facts, medical co
operation can be deemed to be the easiest type of assistance
Japan can extend to foreign countries. The Japanese Go
vernment also has built a similar plan based on such a
concept. But it is felt extremely difficult for the Govern-
200 REPORT
ment to secure doctors who would dedicate themselves to
such a cause for a long period of three or five years. In
this sense, JOCS is playing a pioneering part in this field.
7. Preparation for Building the JCMA Hospital
JCMA has set up a subcommittee to make plans to build
its own hospital which can give training to doctors who
are to be dispatched to foreign countries and to foreign
doctors who have come to Japan to study through invita
tion from JCMA. The hospital will be used also as a re
training place for doctors on furlough who have been abroad
for medical services and also as an institution in which
Christian doctors in general can practice what medical
treatment should be substantially.

THE JAPAN BIBLE CHRISTIAN COUNCIL
The Japan Bible Christian Council met for its twelfth
anniversary business session on March 20 th, 1962, and that
evening heard a moving address by the Rev. Samuel E.
Boyle on " How the Chinese Reds Enslaved the Church."
The Council was formed in March 1950 by a group of
missionaries, " as an agency unequivocally opposed to all
forms of unbelief, idolatry, and compromise with them,
and unreservedly dedicated as a witness to ' the faith once
for all delivered unto the saints,' " according to its consti
tution.
It was its founders' purpose to form it not on such a
broad evangelical basis that it would be impossible to obtain
unanimity of action on important controversial issues, but
on a basis sufficiently delineated in doctrine and practice
as to insure agreement when forthright action was needed.
Its doctrinal section was firmly committed to historical
Christology and infallibility of Scripture, while its practical
section was equally committed to a position refuting any
compromise with pagan cultural practices. Members must
subscribe to the constitution's preamble and doctrinal state
ment, where its position is set forth, and they cannot hold
membership in the World Council of Churches or the
National Council of Churches of Japan, which are held to
be excessively latitudinarian. They have come from over
a dozen different groups doing missionary work in Japan.
The Council is not a church and seeks to avoid over
lapping into activity considered to be the basic responsibility
of the church, such as evangelism. An illustration some-
202 REPORT
times used to illustrate its function is that of a local
community's fire department. For much of the year the
fire department may scarcely be noticed but when an
emergency arises it is organized and ready to act. The
JBCC is organized and ready to speak out whenever it feels
it must, when freedom is challenged or principle compro
mised in the areas of faith or church and state. The
exclusiveness of its position has given it strength through
unanimity rather than in numbers and a greater mobility
when it has had to act. Some of its activity along this
line in recent years were its publicly released protests
against President Eisenhower's projected visit to Meiji
Shrine, the sponsorship basis of the Graham and Pierce
Crusades, and the sponsoring of lecture tours of liberal
theologians to the Japanese churches.
The Council has also from the beginning backed the
project for a new Bible translation, and at its autumn
session in 1962 a very encouraging report on the progress
of this work was given. The first New Testament book,
The Gospel of John, is to be published by the summer of
1963 and the rest of the books the following year. The
speaker at this session was the Rev. Robert Sutton who
addressed the group on the subject " The Judaic-Christian
Concept of Private Property."
The major effort of the JBCC at the present time is the
publication of a book specially written for it by Professor
Tomonobu Yanagita, author of " Japan Christian Literature
Review " and " A Short History of Christianity in Japan."
The book deals with the subject of the religious foundations
of Japanese culture and their influence on the postwar are.
It begins with a scholarly and scientific investigation into
the origins of Japanese culture, carefully analyzing and
classifying the various streams of early immigration and
their influence. This study continues with a fascinating
chapter on "The Rise and Fall of the Tenno System as a
THE JAPAN BIBLE CHRISTIAN COUNCIL 203
World Empire," and it concludes with a consideration of
" The Threefold Christian Challenge " and " The Postwar
Situation." The book is due off the press in the fall of
1963. Its publication is expected to further an understand
ing of what Christianity faces in Japan as well as the need
of the forthright presentation of the gospel of Christ for
which the JBCC stands.

JAPAN KESWICK CONVENTION
The 1963 Japan Keswick Convention met for four days,
February 26 to March 1st, at the Kowakien Hotel in Hakone.
This was the second annual convention. Of the 1,328
people who attended 509 were Japanese pastors and full-time
Christian workers, 652 laymen, and 167 missionaries. One-
half came from the Tokyo area and the other half were
from other parts of Japan, and even from Okinawa. The
first Japan Keswick Convention, March, 1962, was attended
by 600 men and women, and this year's doubled attendence
exhibits its importance. That 65 Japanese denominations
were represented is one indication of the wide co-operation
that makes such a spiritually centered convention possible.
As someone remarked, it seems that there is a far greater
spirit of unity among the Japanese Christians than one
would suppose because of the many denominational divisions.
The name " Keswick " is taken from a town of that
name in the beautiful lake country of northern England.
There for over 80 years Christians from all denominations
have met for several weeks each summer. In 1962, the
81st gathering at Keswick attracted 7,500 people. Several
Japanese pastors and laymen who went to England especially
to attend the meetings were so inspired by what they
saw and felt there that they returned to their own country
determined to work harder than ever to unite the Christians
of Japan around the one purpose for which Keswick
exists — to deepen the spiritual life of the Christians. The
motto of Keswick, " All One in Christ," is taken from
Ephesians 1 : 10. The Japanese committee decided to use
the name Keswick because it stands for a unique convention
JAPAN KESWICK CONVENTION 205
which has a long spiritual history. The convention is not
a business meeting nor are any officials elected at its
sessions. The convention " keeps strictly to its purpose."
Hardly anyone is ever asked to speak unless he has attended
a previous Keswick Convention and understands its special
character.
The Japan Keswick has its own organization. These
church leaders from various denominations have banded
together for the one purpose of creating in Japan the same
kind of an annual gathering of Christians that has become
so famous in England.
The members of the Executive Committee are : Rev.
Tsunetaro Miyakoda, General Secretary of the Japan Bible
Society; Rev. Tosaji Obara, a member of the United
Church's Executive Committee and pastor of the Yodobashi
Church; Rev. Tameichiro Kanai, President of Japan Bible
Seminary and pastor of the Ikebukuro Nishi Church ; Rev.
Akiji Kurumada, President of the Japan Holiness Church
and the Tokyo Bible Seminary, and for many years president
of the Gospel Federation ; Rev. Aishin Kida, General Super
intendent of the Japan Nazarene Church; Rev. Masanao
Fujita, a member of the United Church's Executive Com
mittee and pastor of the Hakusan Church ; Mr. Toyozo
Mikumo, layman and retired businessman; Rev. Yutaka
Haneda, pastor of the Tsurumibashi Church of Osaka,
serving as business manager; and Rev. Joe R. Gooden,
Missionary Advisor.
The two main speakers at the 1963 meeting were Dr.
Paul Rees from America and the Rev. George Duncan from
Scotland. Mr. Bill Jones, a layman from Los Angeles, also
spoke briefly from a layman's point of view.
Dr. Paul Rees was for 20 years pastor of the First
Covenant Church of Mineapolis, Minnesota, which had an
annual missionary budget of $100,000.00. He is now minis
tering at special pastor's conferences throughout the world
206 REPORT
and as Vice President at Large of World Vision, Inc., of
Los Angeles. He had previously ministered several times
to Japanese pastors, having come to Japan for the first
time 30 years ago. The Rev. George Duncan has been one
of the most popular speakers at the British Keswick Con
vention for over 15 years. His former church in England
grew so large that duplicate Sunday evening services had
to be held. He has represented the British Keswick, speak
ing in Canada, the United States, Hawaii, Lebanon, and
Australia, and he was chosen this year as a special
representative to Japan.
Mr. Bill Jones is a printer from Los Angeles. He is the
sponsor of the annual Presidential Prayer Breakfast which
met for the 10th time February 7, 1963, and which was
attended by President Kennedy and 2,000 others, including
many members of Congress. Because of the large at
tendance of laymen at Keswick the ratio being 6 laymen
to 5 clergy, his witness as a Christian layman was of
special importance.
During the coming year the messages of the speakers
will appear in the quarterly magazine of the movement,
" Keswick." All sessions were recorded and tapes are being
used in the various churches throughout Japan.
Many were deeply impressed by the Christian unity which
they experienced in the conference, as more than 1,300
delegates from all over Japan sang together, prayed to
gether, talked together, and fellowshiped together for the
four days. One missionary remarked that staying in the
same hotel room with Lutherans, Baptists, Nazarenes,
Brethren, and Presbyterians was an unusual experience for
him and he felt the richer for it. He said the motto of
Keswick was 'real to him. Some spoke of the quiet,
prayerful atmosphere even though there were over 1,300
people at all the sessions. Dr. John Henry Jowett in his
book, "The Passions for Souls," had this to say about
JAPAN KESWICK CONVENTION 207
Keswick : "...about their lives there is a strength and a
serenity, and a flavor, and a fragrance, which mark them
off from the harassed, restless, feverish world they are
seeking to redeem." So there was at Hakone a very quiet
feeling of the presence of God, from the early morning
prayer meeting which began at 6 : 30 through the closing
service at night. An Osaka pastor noted that it was a new
experience for him to go to such a large conference and
just sit for four days with his Bible and with his hymn
book and listen to such wonderful messages that challenged
his own life and stirred his own thinking, without his
having to feel any sense of responsibility for the preparation
of the meetings. He said," It was something that I have
needed for a long time — to just get away and be alone
with the Lord."
It is planned to hold the next convention at Hakone in
February, 1964.

JAPAN CHURCH WORLD SERVICE
1. General
Japan Church World Service is the relief and rehabilitation
agency of the Protestant Churches of Japan. It ministers
on their behalf to needy persons throughout the nation.
As a member body of the National Christian Council, JCWS
is given the responsibility to express the concern of the
Churches for persons in need without regard to race,
religion, or political belief. The Rev. Kentaro Buma is
Director, and Mr. Hajime Ogavva is Associate Director.
Until 1958 JCWS operated under the auspices of Church
World Service, U. S. A. In that year it became legally
independent and was incorporated as a social welfare
organization under the laws of the Ministry of Welfare.
JCWS is related to similar Christian service organizations
in 40 countries, including Church World Service from which
JCWS has received the bulk of its relief supplies. Other
organizations which have contributed substantially to JCWS
are the Canadian Council of Churches, Lutheran World
Relief, and the Council for Overseas Relief Services of New
Zealand.
JCWS also represents the World Council of Churches'
Division of Inter -Church Aid and Service to Refugees and
is the recognized channel for aid which flows between the
Churches overseas and the Churches of Japan. In this role
JCWS also has assisted over three hundred refugees in
their search for new opportunities abroad.
The program of JCWS is determined by a Board of
Trustees representing principally the member bodies of the
JAPAN CHURCH WORLD SERVICE 209
National Christian Council. The actual work is administered
by a staff of 23 persons.
In the years following the war JCWS emphasized direct
relief and material aid, particularly of food and clothing.
But since 1958 the emphasis has shifted to rehabilitation
projects which seek to eliminate the causes of poverty and
need. This development reflects in part the improved
economic conditions of Japan, but it is also the result of
the Churches' search for new forms of service in modern
society. JCWS is particularly concerned with physically-
handicapped persons and poor pioneer farmers in northern
Japan. Projects offering technical assistance and vocational
training have been established for these groups.
It is the conviction of Japan Church World Service that
a fully Christian ministry includes concern for the physical
as well as the spiritual needs of men. In this conviction
JCWS carries on its work.
2. The Okunakayama Rural Center
For centuries Japan has depended upon tiny fields in the
lowland areas for the production of her food. The results
have been impressive. Even today with a population of
93,000,000 living in an area the size of the state of California,
Japanese farmers supply three-fourths of their nation's
demand for food. But future prospects are not so bright,
and it is obvious that the upland areas of Japan must be
developed to meet the demands of a population increasing
at the rate of one million persons each year.
The Okunakayama Rural Center is an experiment in
upland agriculture. Through it JCWS seeks to demonstrate
the feasibility of farming the bleak mountain slopes which
make up more than two-thirds of the total land area of
Japan. The Center is located at an altitude of 2,000 feet
in one of the poorest prefectures in northern Honshu.
Heavy snows and a short growing season have frustrated
210 REPORT
the attempts of thousands of " pioneer farmers " to develop
the area, and their modest homes offer convincing evidence
of the difficulties that must be faced.
The Okunakayama Rural Center represents a new ap
proach to agriculture in the area. Instead of grain
production, the Center emphasizes dairying and livestock,
for which the area is well-suited. Green pastures have
already replaced the barren slopes of Okunakayama, and
steadily increasing production of milk and pork finds ready
markets in cities to the south. There is good reason to
believe that the experiment will succeed.
For several years prior to the establishment of the center
in 1957, JCWS had been concerned with the plight of
pioneer farmers in northern Japan. The farmers, most of
whom are repatriates from prewar overseas territories, had
endured successive crop failures in their attempts to develop
the upland areas. They required large amounts of JCWS
relief supplies, but they also needed assistance in developing
a more diversfied type of agriculture. JCWS was able to
provide more than twenty tons of clover seed donated by
Church World Service, U.S.A. and the Christian Rural
Overseas Program. The clover seed proved to be the
foundation for a growing dairy industry.
Because of the gratitude of the prefectural government
for the clover seed, JCWS was offered 125 acres of land
for an experimental farm. At the same time the Heifer
Project, Inc. promised to provide the livestock necessary to
establish a breeding center. Needy farmers from the area
are now being instructed in pasture development and
livestock care, and after they have completed their training,
heifers bred at the Center are given to them.
Although the farm has been serving as a community
center and is being used as a site for ecumenical work
camps, for future consultations and conferences for farmers
and church people, a center hall and dormitory was required.
JAPAN CHURCH WORLD SERVICE 211
On August 1st, 1963 a center hall and dormitory complete
with dining facilities, lobby, assembly hall and accommo
dations for 48 guests was formally opened. The center
hall and dormitory was erected with contributions from
the " Bread for the World " movement of the German
Protestant churches ; the " Freedom from Hunger" campaign
in Australia ; CORSO, an inter-church relief agency of New
Zealand ; and with money raised locally in Japan.
Future plans for the Center include expansion into new
varieties of livestock and the opening up of 50 hectares of
land for pasture. The potential importance of the Center
was recognized in 1960 when Prince Mikasa, the younger
brother of the Emperor, participated in the formal dedication
ceremonies.
3. Agape Factory
Even though the general economic situation of a country
improves, there always exist certain areas or groups of
people who are left behind. The physically handicapped
are one of these groups in spite of laws to accelerate
employment and other advances in social security.
There are approximately one million physically handi
capped people in Japan. Half of these are responsible for
the main source of income in their respective families.
However, among these, 62 percent of the men and 97
percent of the women receive a salary of less than 10,000
yen ($27.78).
In the past, Japan Church World Service, has aided the
handicapped by providing medical camps, recreation, a tape
library for the blind and financial loans, to the extent that
it has received a commendation from the Labor Ministry.
There is no doubt, however, that the best way to meet
the needs of the handicapped is to provide them with jobs.
As a new form of Christian service, JCWS established in
1961 a card-board factory which employs physically handi-
212 REPORT
capped people. The factory has been named the " Agape
Factory ". A small building in the suburbs of Tokyo which
formerly housed a noodle factory has been purchased and
repaired to install the necessary cutters and rollers which
have been adjusted to meet the needs of the handicapped
workers.
From 70 applicants, 17 (15 men and 2 women) were
initially selected with plans to increase eventually the
number to 30. Of these 17, 50 percent were never employed
before because of their physical condition, and the others
had been working under antiquated and often inhuman
conditions. Within three months the directors of the factory
planned to pay an adequate salary to 25 handicapped
workers as well as meet all other expenses. All work a
regular eight-hour day.
The " Agape Factory " has drawn the attention of the
public. It has been televised twice, featured on a 15 minute
radio broadcast and written up by leading newspapers.
4. Aid to Refugees and the Physically-Handicapped
One of the most tragic by-products of war and political
unrest is the refugee. He is left to wander the face of the
earth without opportunity and often without hope. The
doors of nations are closed to him, and he must wait in
exile for a visa that may never arrive.
The plight of the refugee has been a principal concern
of the World Council of Churches' Division of Inter-Church
Aid and Service to Refug'ees in the postwar period. The
Division assists refugees during their period of exile,
attempts to secure immigration visas on their behalf,
provides funds for travel to the host country, and assists
the refugees in resettlement. The work is costly and time-
consuming, but the benefits are obvious, at least to those
who have been refugees themselves.

KINUGASA HOSPITAL on the
Road to Reconstruction
after going through
Ordeal and
£'£ Sacrifice.
Appeal for Reconstruction Help
The underlying foundation of this Hospital is the Christian Faith.
Since its opening on August 11, 1947 it lias attempted in the Name of
Christ to serve the community at Jarge as a medical and socile welfare
center. On January !>, I960 the greater part of the facilities was destroy
ed by fire. This tragedy necessitated the reconstruction of the hospital and
the first of three stages of reconstruction was completed in late May 1963.
We express our sincere gratitude and appreciation for the help given by
Kanagawa Prefecture, the City of Yokohama, the Christian churches and
general public in japan, and by ^thc Christian churches in the United States
and Canada.
An attractive brochure in English giving details about the hospital and
the reconstruction program will be send upon inquiry. We appreciate any
support that you can give this hospital.

JAPAN CHURCH WORLD SERVICE 213
Aid and Service to Refugees, JCWS has been able to assist
over 300 persons find new opportunities overseas. The
large majority of the refugees have been White Russians,
first exiled in China and then in Hong Kong or Japan.
Chinese from the mainland have constituted the next
largest group. The United States, Brazil, and Australia
have absorbed most of the refugees from this area.
Thousands of refugees remain on the mainland and in
Hong Kong and Korea, but their emigration awaits new
legislation in the recipient countries.
Physically-handicapped persons are among the forgotten
citizens of Japan. They are unable to participate as equal
members in society, and their opportunities for employment
are few. It is estimated that more than 1,000,000 persons
in Japan are physically-handicapped.
JCWS ministers to these forgotten citizens through the
Kriete Fund and the Tape Library. The Kriete Fund,
established in 1954, offers financial assistance to handicapped
persons who wish to begin their own businesses. The Tape
Library is a lending library of tape recordings for the
benefit of the blind.
Since 1954 the Kriete Fund has loaned more than $ 7,000
to 90 handicapped persons. The loans, which are limited
to a maximum of $150 per person, are made to graduates
of rehabilitation centers for the physically-handicapped.
Recipients of the loans have entered a variety of occup
ations, but most are masseurs, tailors, and watch, radio,
or shoe repairmen. The great majority are now self-
supporting.
The Tape Library was the first of its kind in Japan.
Tapes are loaned free of charge to any blind person who
requests them. The tapes are recorded by members of
local churches on machines loaned by JCWS. Each month
more than 100 tapes are sent to applicants. The number
of titles in the library exceeds 250.

The yen is local currency in Japan.
So is this.
In Kyoto, Yokohama, Kobe and on the Ginza, you can
use BANK OF AMERICA TRAVELERS CHEQUES
just like money. They are money: money only you
can spend. Because only your signature makes them
valid. That means they're loss-proof, theft-proof.
Local currency the world over— sold the world over.

Not everybody knows how to make it click
The click of an abacus totalling up
a sale can sound as sweet as any
cash register's clang. But first you
need advertising campaigns that click
with the Japanese public.
"Campaigns that click" are the
creative dedication of Dentsu. Dentsu
is the agency that combines an
intimate knowledge of what sells in
Japan with the latest advertising and
marketing methods of the West. It
is, of course, Japan's leading agency.
In Japan last year, abacuses (and
cash registers) clicked off more than
$11,516,600,000 in retail sales. To
gain your share in Asia's greatest
market, talk with Dentsu.
We know what makes advertising
- and abacuses — click.
