JAPAN and The STRIKE

An honest statement of facts
would undoubtedly show that moth
ing could be more inopportune for
the japanese in their diplomatic re-
lations with the United States than
the trouble stirred up By Japanese
resident in this Territory through
the strike Of laborers.
The one remedy Is for the people
involved to get down to work and
proceed under conditions of indus
trial peace.
Few of our own citizens and
perhaps an equally small number of
resident Japanese realized that Il
treaty is being negotiated by the
diplomats of America and Japan, or
If our japanese friends did know
what was going on they underesti-
mated the power of strike as u
trouble maker. Any intelligent man
additional that might be sent to
Japan through an increase of plan
tation labor wages Is of no conse-
Quence when q treaty Is at stake in
volving billions of future trade in
the developing areas of the orient.
It Is also well understood that only
when mutual sentiments of good will
and confidence prevail as to the
intentions of the people Of the two
atracting parties, may the condi-
,.y.s for treaty making be said to be
thoroughly satisfactory.
The far-reaching plan of the
strike leaders has aroused more or
less suspicion on the part of Ameri-
cans that, to say the least, cannot
be beneficial to the interests of the
japanese government. For this rea-
son alone there is not and never has
been the slightest good excuse for
the strike on this island becoming
an International affair. Neither
Washington nor Toxic wont 1t to be-
come International. Each wants in
ternational quiet. Since the Japan
csc have been the aggressors In this
instance, Toxic more than Washing
ton prefers that the foreign office
shall not be disturbed by differences
between the labOrer and his employ
er, particularly when the laborer Is
making all the threats and aiming
to do whatever damage may be done.
The Blu let n is satisfied that
the influence of the japanese gov
eminent Is for industrial peace in
these Islands. II may, through some
of its unofficial agents, have been in
different to the original movement
that might increase the surplus of
money sent to Japan, but It cannot
favor struggle marked by fragrant
violation Of the laws of this land.
From the japanese standpoint the
continuation of the strike is an ex-
preston OF the extent to which the
japanese laboring men are willing
TO make the selfish interests of a
few self-appointed leaders para
mount to the welfare of their coun-
try as whole, to say nothing of that
in which they live.
