HAWAIFs STRATEGIC VALUE.
Likely to Be Seized by Japan in the
Event of War With That Country.


Event of War With That Country.
The possibility. however remote. OF
a war with Japan brings up the cues,
ton of the strategic value of Hawaii
There is little doubt that Japan in the
event OF such a conflict could and
would at once occupy those islands as
a base of operations against us. Long
before we could possibly send for their
defense fleet which could be spared
only after proper protection had been
given to our Pacific coast cities, Japan
would have her fleet and her troop
ships in the harbor of Honolulu. With
Japan once in possession it would be
almost impossible to dislodge her for
the reason that ste would do imme Ii
ately what the United States have not
done and perhaps is little likely to do.
Because of physical conditions the
principal Hawaiian islands may easily
be made almost inpregnable. Guilty
ing reefs make landing impossible ez-
cert throu2h channels which coald be
swept by shore batteries. In case OF
need fer such defense Japan as an oc-
cupant would have IN immeasurable
advantage over us. There are in the
Islands to-day some $4,000 men, many
and probably most of whom belong TO
the japanese reserves. They are
trained soldiers.
A naval occupation followed by tho
arrival OF vessels bringing arms and
ammunition and equipment would give
Japan tremendous advantage at the
very outset of hostilities This quick
ly available force would proceed at
once to the construction of earthwDrks
and Notifications and to their equip
ment with heavy guns and light bat
teries. Once in intrenched occupation
and with such a defensive force she
could give a highly interesting time to
all the ships and men that we could
possibly spare from the defense of the
Philippines and the Pacific coast.
Were Japan disposed to assume a
belligerent attitude the Hawaiian ISL
ands really invite attack There is lit
tie doubt that an occupation could be
easily effected and Japan instead of
being 1890 miles away is only 2,100.
Fortunately our relations with Jap
an are on the whole most friendly and
likely to continue so. Enlightened
self-interest demands that they SO con-
tinue, but it is well to remember that
in time of trouble our weakest spot
would be Japan's strongest hold.
