Japanese, including Premier Terau
chi, and former Minister Hontono u
day gave their support to the sugget
tirm of Walter Williams, dean of th
School of Journalism of the Univei
sity of Missouri, that the banquet t
lie held at the university during join
nalism week in May be a "made ii
Japan" affair.
Responding to Dean Williams’ pri
posal, Japanese I'htmbers of Con
morce have taken up the idea and wil
send Japanese souvenirs of cnmraei
cial products to be presented to th
banqueters. Some Japanese noble wii
be delegated to make an address a
the banquet; a Japanese decorator wi:
be sent to dress the hall at Columbh
Mu, in Japanese style, and the whol
affair will be made as truly Nlppoi
esc as possible.
Senator W. K. Stone, chairman c
the foreign relations committee <
the United Slates senate, and othe
leading Americans have written ei
dorsements of the project as outline
by Dean Williams.
This year's function will be a s.
quel to the "Made in Missouri" an
the “Made in America" banquets hel
in former years at the Missouri uu
versity.
