(AP) All Japan is anxiously awaiting the gokeljl. "the honorably auspicious event," the birth of an Infant to the em peror and empress which physicians of the imperial court have announced may be expected between Christmas and the new year. Before the shrines of the national gods and the ancestors of the Im perial house. In the sanctuaries of the palace, In hundreds of Buddhist temples and Shinto fanes and be fore thousands of humble house hold shrines throughout the empire prayers are being offered that the empress may be delivered of a man- child to be consecrated heir apparent to his father, Emperor Hlrohito. Four times since the marriage 01 Hlrohito and his consort Nagako January 26. 1924, the sovereigns and their sxibjects have looked forward hopefully to a slmllar'gokelji. Each time the celebration of the Dirtn and the safety of the empress has been tinged with disappointment, for each time the baby has been a girl, and a girl cannot succeed to the throne. The empire thus Is still without a crown prince, and there Is un easiness, which has deepened with the birth of each little imperial princess, lest direct succession to the august high seat become Impossible. In that event the emperer would be succeeded by the oldest of his three brothers, Prince Chlchlbu, now des ignated heir presumptive. TO SALEM. Deo. 16.
