Premier Katsura of Japan IN an ad-
dress before a club OF bankers at
Tokyo outlined the policy OF the gov
erument In a manner which should al
lay the apprehensions OF timorous
souls who see in every move in that
direction threat OF war with the
United States. The premier set forth
plans for developing the resources of
the empire and avoiding unnecessary
expenditure. This peaceful program
contained nothing to which objection
can be taken anywhere. On the con-
trary. the plans deserve the warmest
approval. Japan has had enough OF
war for the present. and sees that her
highest interests will be served
by promoting prosperity at home
and Strengthening friendly relations
abroad
