in a case before him that the co

Lord Sands said it might he all very

The relations betw’een the house
owner and the lessees have hitherto
been of a private character, but the
latest tendency is that they are taken
as a social question of public impor
tance.
In view of this gTeat change in
social affairs, it is very satisfactory
to learn that the Tokyo authorities
are arranging to establish a social
bureau in the city office to deal with
iomestic questions. There are many
things to be done by the social bu
reau. It should establish cheap eat
ing houses, provide free medical
treatment and establish an office to
give aid and counsel to the people
on all their affairs.
It is also important that the au
thorities should provide healthy
means of amusement. To the upper

than amusement in its literal sense,

lower classes. The question of food
