ORIENTAL DIPLOMAT
Japanese Ambassador Delighted
With Understanding Between
United States and Nippon
Says Joint Declaration of Coun-
tries Regarding Policies Is a
Transaction of Friends !.

NEW YORK, Dec. accompanying the
recent joint declaration by Japan and
the United States in regard to Their
respective policies in the Pacific to a
transaction between trusted friends
Baron Takahira, Japanese ambassador
to the United States, in an address to-
night at q Lotus club dinner given in
his honor, expressed in an unmistakable
way his great qualification that so
strong a bond of union between the
two nations had been cemented-
Takahira said;
When / lived In this city many years
ago, L used to go to the Harlem river
for fishing. and j saw that the boatman
always rowed hard when the tide was
against him; in the same way / now
see that q diplomat speaks much when
his affairs are not in good shape, But,
as things are now between the United
States and Japan, there is nothing to
warrant much speech making. I fully
believe 1 am not mistaken when say
that our relations are in the best possi-
bic condition. I think we may say
there is now nothing more to be desired
in the relations OF our two countries.
But If the past is to serve as lesson
for the future, it would be we'll to con-
slider what we have had to experience
for these few years. In these years
we have to admit we had such terri
bic time in regard to our relations as
We cOulO never ANTICIPATE NO doubt
there were some undesirable incidents
occurring between some people of the
two countries, but they were only local
affairs and in no way to be regarded
as menacing to our traditional friend
ship.
But too much Importance was given
TO them in some quarters, and even
war clamor was allowed to be raised
in spite of the sincere good will existing
between the two governments But
thanks to the sincerity of the friend
ship existing all the time between the
two governments, no serious conse-
quences were allowed to occur that
might otherwise follow such circum-
stances.
I took the opportunity at a dinner
given in my honor on, my arrival here
some months ago to declare that there
is no art in our game :of diplomacy. In
our international trahsactions I can
most firmly repeat tbs same assertion
and add that there is no such word as
diplomacy" as popularity defined. The
declaration of the two governments re-
Gently made by the United States and
Japan in regard to their respective
policy in China and the Pacific is a
good example.
