[Awards to Hajime Hoshi dedicated from Germany].

In the Hajime Hoshi Memorial Exhibit Hall of Hoshi University, many awards dedicated to H. Hoshi from Germany are displayed. Hoshi made a donation amounting to about 20 millions dollars to the distressed chemistry science community of Germany just after the 1st World War. The Hoshi fund gave the scientific society hope to recover, and deeply impressed and delighted the German people. The awards to Hoshi dedicated from Germany strongly reflect the hot spirit of Japan-Germany cultural exchange. The present study investigates the details of the awards.
