SELF-MADE MEN TYPIFY JAPAN'S INDUSTRIAL RISE Poor Boys Become Pearl, Soap and Magazine Kings of Land. H*r<* ts th f>rln * h’ Willi -.m Philip 'imm* a>inr wMb ■ bat l t!nt m a,rn J*p*o- - WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS srripp.-Howard K.rei*n f.ditor TOBA. Japan, July 10.—Self-made men, called kings of this and that, .tre -'oming to be as common in shi" country as they are in the United Stater. There is, for instance, the ' pearl j nK 0 f Japan, ’ one ot the richest ip.cn in thr Far East if not in the ■ rid. He began life as a poor peddlrr of macaroni, which he made himself in a little kettle scarcely •arger than a wash boiler. Thc-n there is the "soap king of *3pn.” another multimillionaire, j r> d very rich even according to American standards. He started as - office boy in a brewery. A things the “magazine king of Japan,” who was so terribly poor as H boy that mosquitoes all but ate im alive because he did not have v oney to buy netting. Ana so on down an imposing list. Bp'.uiso self-mode men like these t plfy Japan sudden rise to nationrichne. ; and greatness, because have considerable bearing on her*future and, lastly, because they how how much there is in common between Japan and America and ■f t' een the Japanc n and American people. I shall tell their stories m articles which will follow this. * The nearl king of Japan is Kokich: Mik.imoto, whose picture would re ejnble a composite photograph of Thomas. Edison and Henry Ford. A f.uarter ot a century ago no bank in Japan would lend him a nickel and he was the butt of many iokes. Today- he could buy and sell a dozen banks without making a ripple on the flood of his fortune, and he is internationally famous as a savant as well. The soap king rise to riches was scarcely less spectacular. , Twenty •ears ago he was ooor as Job’s turkey. But, reading of an American -• ho made a great fortune in soap, he determined to do the same for himself. Today his home is one of the show places of Osaka. The magazine king of Japan, Seiki Noma, likewise claims he got his original idea from the United States. A poverty-stricken clerk in a school, he says, he read of an American magazine which had a million circulation. Japan had no such thing. Only a few Japanese scholars or well-to-do people read anything at all. Today he not only owns one magazine, but nine, with a combined circulation of approximately 12 000.000.

The Ether Critique P.Y JOHN T. HAWKINS Times Radio Editor Paul Whiteman’s program Tuesday night was of course the last word in rhythmic syncopation. The Old Gold hour, however, is beginning to lack variety. Whiteman's chief contribution Tuesday night was “Liza,” a hit from the new Ziegfeld show “Showgirl.” ff an Heard with anew Fada radio receiver. through the courtesy of Bud Gass of the Gibson company, the Fada Symphonic hour over WFBM Tuesday night in the first of its concert series was all that could be asked in the way of fine entertainment. Under direction of David Mendoza the orchestra played an excellent program, one of the high spot* being the “Ave Maria” from “Cavelleria Rusticana.” ff >ff a Glorified jazz with all the trimmings was the offering of the Syncomatics over WLW Tuesday night, Tire Vitap'none program, a weekly offering of the Apollo theater over WKBF, had nothing unusual in its makeup Tuesday night. Leo Reisman and his Hotel Brunswick orchestra playing popular selections, and Mr. and Mrs. Jack Norworth in a song skit were the offerings. tr /: The Music Box hour over WFBM, conducted by George ■ Irish, is
