that the United States government

"And," he said, mo matter what tho

Before distinguished gathering OF
scientists and government officials.
the former president secuted the
probability of war between Japan and
the United States, saying that it was
the last thing the statesmen of Japan
desired. The only danger of a war;"
he added, "is in our injusice to the
Japanese. They are fighting for the
battle of trade and not for conquest

least in this direction. All we have
TO do to avoid other than business
