In conclusion the writer says 1t IS
not his purpose to arouse any anti
foreign feeling among the japanese.

the principles Of universal brother

prompted by selfish purposes. It Is

velopment and attaining the same
standard Of civilization as America

brought to respect the japanese. they
declare, instead of despising them.
