TOKIO, March 29. - The Rev. J.
M. McCaleb, nn American missionary
from Boston. Is in the midst of a quar
rel with his Japanese students here
today over the divinity of Christ.
When one of the students declared
that Jimmu Tenno, Japan's first em
peror, was even greater than Jesus
Christ, Dr. McCaleb took issue with
him.
The students, angered, passed a re
solution demanding that the mission
ary leave the country. Dr. McCaleb.
who rami' here twenty-five years ago
and operates independently of any
mission, refused to go; nnd also ob
jected to the students raising their
national flag over the school on Ki
gensetsu day, explaining that It con
tained the element of ancestor wor
ship.
"Without my consent," said Dr. Me
Caleb today, "the students wen
ahead nnd raised the Rising Sun. On<
student openly told me t)ie occasioi
was not only ancestor worship, bn
that Jimmu Tenno, who is suppose*
to have ascended the throne 600 yeari
before Christ, was even greater that
Christ.
“This put me, a Christian, in a ver;
embarrassing position, and I took is
sue with him. The government h
back of me and I stand pat."
