TOKYO, Japan � The Japanese people are adopting democracy in 'their peculiar way in this new. era of � froedoiv.. a recent, public opinion poll ..by'the Yor.iiuri, leading Tokyo daily, revealed. �
H judged� by Western taste, their ways and practices may not measure up to the standards of-social''democracy. Hut' foreign observers should nor fail io see some -radical changes that have taken .place in Die lives of the �Japanese people. '�".:'
For instance., only a handful of pre-war Japanese ever thought that men and women -should waik arm-' in" arm. Such a topic, virtually, was taboo among the . cuU txtred set which had been 'taught in the Confucian _sehool; stress.-, ing, .."Hoys a::d girls should not : sit together at. t he age .of seven." Hut. today a majority of young .menand women walk hand, in hand; or! arm 'in'.arm on streets and .elsewhere : as naturally as any other peoples. � .'.
In pre-war^ days, furtherniore, few wives .expected their' hus-.bands to help them in household work,, but' many do today as a matter of fact. 1'ore.ign oDserv-ers on. t he ot her hand, also t ake note that many'of the old. customs and -manners still hold sway among the Japanese people, especially -among the older generation. But the; Japanese: insist �that the..mingling-of "old and new does not hecessarily discredit the accomplishments they have ina.de ..in", democratization, .lor there :can be no absolute pattern of democracy for n.l! .the peoples in the woi'Ul.- It -is -inte.resting' to note liowever, how the' ordinary .run '.'of the Japanese;Vtliink and behave, as revenlexl In the Yo-miuri; public opinion survey: ..-;" To the Yo.m'iuri.questioji.
