J.J. MALLON, LL.D.: 'Modern Industry and National Character from the point of view of a Social Worker'
THE EFFECT of industry on national character is to be discussed this evening by a social worker.
In 1919 Dr. Mallon was appointed Warden of Toynbee Hall, the pioneer University Settlement which Canon Barnett founded fifty years ago with the purpose of bringing men of University-education to industrial areas, so that their theoretical knowledge might be added to the practical knowledge of the wage-earner for the improvement of social conditions.
Toynbee Hall, in its early years, attained great fame as a centre of social research. Its influence on British legislation has been powerful. It is also famous as a 'Working Man's University.' In addition, the Whitechapel Art Gallery, the John Benn Hostel, and Milner Hall, the Children's Country Holiday Fund, the Workers' Educational Association, and the Workers' Travel Association owe their existence to it. Its Jubilee is to be celebrated this year, and, in commemoration, it is proposed to enlarge the present Settlement for still further useful and splendid activities.
Dr. Mallon's qualifications to come to the microphone can thus readily be seen. By fifteen years' work at Toynbee Hail, by helping to establish the Trades Boards which have the power to fix and enforce legal minimum rates of wages, by his active membership of many government and semi-government bodies, he has done as much as most men can for the workers.

' Japan is Changing '
A Correspondent from Tokyo
IF A TRAVELLER were to return today to Japan after a three years' absence, what changes would he notice in the big cities?
He would find more cars; greater speed; new, modern buildings; fashion journals and beauty parlours ; elegant Western clothes ; permanent waves and lipstick ; and new palaces for jazz and dancing sprung up everywhere.
And seeing the ' rush of life ', he might not wonder that flowing robes have been dispensed with as inconvenient for boarding 'buses, and ceremonious. bows and formal compliments consigned to yesteryear. A new Japan. English words, slick American expressions heard everywhere. The stock of old-style tea houses and geishas down ; popular beaches gay with garish umbrellas, beach pyjamas, and animated conversation. And he might think that East and West have met.
But the speaker tonight is to warn listeners not to be in too great a hurry to judge by the surface.
It is not impossible that the day may come when the national campaign, now in progress, may bear fruit, and the traditional Japanese theatre replace revue and cinema; delicate water colours on silk oust the oil paintings in modern manner from the galleries ; archery and wrestling come into their own again, and the appellation of ' idle madam ' to the modern Japanese woman be needed no longer as a rebuke in the National Press. But the correspondent from Tokyo makes no attempt to forecast the future.
