The purpose of this paper is to clarify how government enlightenment policy was implemented in elementary education in 1930's Japan through an examination of the introduction of Shinto shrine worship to elementary school discipline. In order to analyze this issue, this paper investigates the 1930's Mino Mission Affair that took place in Ogaki city, a city in southwestern Gifu Prefecture. The affair centered on the refusal of elementary school students who belonged to Mino Mission to participate in Shinto shrine worship as a school activity. Mino Mission was established by Sadie Lea Weidner (1875〜1939) as an independent mission without a particular power base. There are already several studies of this affair that clarify the progress of the affair itself. However, these studies fail to analyze the affair as it relates to government enlightenment policy. This paper focuses on the encouragement of shrine worship by the Ministry of Education as well as local government that provided the backdrop for the affair. This paper makes the following conclusions: First, the encouragement of shrine worship was facilitated in Gifu by the close ties of the Gifu-ken Kyoiku-kai (the association of education in Gifu) and the Gifu-ken Shintoku-kai (the association of Shinto in Gifu). The manager of the school affairs section of the Gifu prefectural administration concurrently held the post of president of the Gifu-ken Kyoiku-kai and the Gifu-ken Shintoku-kai. Second, at this time, there was common understanding in the Gifu-ken Kyoiku-kai that the Imperial Rescript on Education was ineffective in addressing elementary school discipline. Shrine worship was seen as one method of instilling discipline into elementary education.
