as its best friend. 1t was the United
States that brought Japan into con-
tact with the civilized world. How?

liShed by kindness, by force of ex-
ample and by recognition of inalien-
able rights. But when Japan was re-
claimed from industrial seclusion

anxious to confer blessings in re-
turn for the privilege of gobbling up
all of the rich concessions or holding
the fat offices.
