Mobilization of Labor Ends
Tradition Governing Em
ployment Edict Rules
Four Million of Toilers
By H. O. THOMPSON
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
TOKYO. (UP) Japan Is mub
Uzlng it workers and using them
as a civilian army under a strict
discipline nearly as strict u that
Imposed upon soldiers in the field.
Under a government ordinance be
ing prepared for enforcement' thlr
fall, some 4.000.000 workers In Key
Industries will be registered, lnderod
assigned jobs at regulated wage and
moved about as the government dic
tates. The mobilization of labor, being
carried out under the national mo
bilization act. Is a tremendous change
In the traditional Japanese attitude
toward employment. Previously, ex
cept for the enforced military train
ing, a man's career has been largely
a matter of family consideration. Now
the state Is being substituted for the
family as the deciding factor in the
choice of work.
Labor Unions Wenkened.
Labor unions, existent but never
strong, will have even less Influence
In the future.
The objective of the plan for laoor
registration Is to have a continual
and ample supply of workers for the
munitions industry.
Article 21 of the national mobiliz
ation act provides:
"When found necessary for pur
poses of national general moblllzd?
tlon. the government may, in accord
ance with the provisions of an im
perial ordinance, cause subjects of
th empire, or those employing or
using subjects of the empire, to re
port on vocational ability, or wc
amlne the vocational ability of subjects-
of the empire."
Under that general authorization,
the government has been preparing
detailed requirements. The news
paper Kokumln said that, the ordin
ance would be ready for enforcement
In November.
Modified Conscription Plan.
1 Require .the registration of all
males between the ages of 16 and
60 who have been holding Jobs di
rectly or indirectly related to the
munitions Industry for the past three
months.
a Require the registration of men
who have studied in engineering or
mining universities or schools.
3 Demand reports from employers
who engage five or more workers.
4 Put into effect enforcing and
regulatory machinery.
(S Provide for inspection of em
ployed personnel.
6 Provide for examinations to de
termine vocational aptitudes.
7 Carry provisions for shifting of
workers from Job to Job as necessity
requires.
8 Prevent changes of employment
without permission..
ft Provide wage scales.
After the plan is In operation .
workers will receive identification
cards and will be subject to call
when need for their services arises

'HAROLD BROWN INSURES THE TOWN"
DEFEAT OF RUSSIA
IN 1905 BROUGHT
Rise Of Japanese Recalled
By Recent Outbreaks On
Border Edge Today Is
Held By Soviet Forces.
By Alexander R. George
(AP Feature Writer)
WASHINOTON. The world was
flabbergasted one old February
morning In horse -and -buggy 1904 by
news from far-off Manchuria Tiny
Japan had suddenly opened war on
gigantic Russia I
It seemed incredible that "the cute
little brown men" nobody then
thought or Japan as a militaristic
nation with Asia-dominating ambi
tions dared to tangle with the
mighty Muscovite bear. Even more
surprising was the news a few day
later that the Japanese were wallop
ing the Russians on land and tea
The big bear, in quest of Asiatic
honey, had prowled too deep Ints
Far Eastern territory lor little Japan's
comfort. Russia's Gibraltar of the
east, at Port Arthur In Chinese Man
churia, and the czar (.. warships there
had become "claws stretching toward
the throat of Nippon."
Britain, which then had a "pro
tect China" alliance with Japan, also
frowned on Russian military pene
tration. Russia refused to withdraw
her troops from Manchuria and be
fore the czarlst government realized
what was going on, the Japanese
had destroyed part of the Russian
fleet at Port Arthur and had won
a series of land battles.
Out of the Blue
There were no preliminary border
clashes like those of tho last seven
years between Soviet and Japanese
troops. All of a sudden Japan launch
ed a war to the finish, mustering
all of its forces to drive the Russians
from Manchuria.
The Russians rallied later with re
inforcements from home ond put up
a stout but usually losing struggle.
The Japanese dealt them three stag
gering blows: Impregnable Port Ar
thur was captured after a terrific
seven-months' siege, the Japanese I
won a decisive battle at Mukden ana
a tremendous naval victory in the
Sea of Japan.
Admiral Togo's "mosquito" flotilla
annihilated the proud Baltic fleet
which had steamed half way around
the world to avenge earlier Russian
naval reverses. United States folks,
sympathetic toward Japan as "the
little fellow" In the war, spoke of
the diminutive Togo aa a second
Admiral Dewey.

Nogl wmn heroes In this country,

Yankee admiration while tales of St
bertan dungeon cruelties to polltlcnl
exiles had made autocratic Russia
unpopular with many Americans.

The war dragged on. the Russians
steadily losing ground, until preal
dent Roosevelt Induced the two gov
ernments to start peace negotiations
In August. 1905. Under the treaty
signed in September, Russia aban
doned her claims to Manchuria.
China resumed control of that coun
try and Japan took over the lease
of strategic Port Arthur.
The world didn't realise It then,
but Japan had become a big league
nation.
The poorly-trained Russian soldiers
displayed great courage' but most of
them didn't know what It was all
about and wanted to go home to
their wives and children. Typical I s
the question put ta an English cor
respondent at the front by a gigan
tic mujlk:
"Tell me. little father, what made
the Japanese so angry at us?"
On the other side, every man, wo
man ond child in Japan were united
In fervor behind the emperor, the
army and navy in "defense of the
homeland."
Unrest among the Russian musses
led to the revolution of 1903. com
pelling the Russian government to
divide Its attention between grave
troubles at home and the war In
distant Manchuria. The Russian sold
iers were woefully lacking In cap
able leadership, In discipline and
teamwork among their major officers.
Threat From the Air
The huge Soviet army of today
Is recruited from the same peasant
and worker groups, but It Is rated
Immeasurably superior In training.
Intelligence and national spirit. It Is
no longer the illiterate, bewildered
"cannon fodder" which followed the
Imperial eagle.
Both Russia and Japan now have
considerably better equipment than
In 1904, but tho gains made by the
Russians in soldier ability and con
fidence and In reputed officer intel
ligence are relatively much greater.
Moreover, the development of the
bombing plane has made Japan much
more vulnerable to attack today than
It was 34 years ago. Russian air
dromes near Vladivostok are only
some 600 to 700 mhes from large
cities of Japan with their flimsy
wood and paper houses and their
highly concentrated Industrial plants.
