China in Need of an Ally.

The Chinese perceive as well as any
one that Japan's outwardly righteous at
tltude is not all that II appears. and the
chances are that the effort 70 win Chinese
friendship and cooperation will be un-
successful. But there remains another
route quite as direct by which Japan can
reach the desired destination. II exists
by reason OF China's need OF strong and
powerful friend or ally. one with not only
the ability but the inclination 10 protect
the Chinese from aggressors. China
needs some nation to play off against the
rest. which is the game China is forever
trying. but not always with success. II
China could be convinced that Japan
would not herself take a slice OF the
Chinese melon she would doubtless be
willing 10 enter into an understanding as
a simple matter of self-protection, ana II
by this method Japan can become doml-
nant she will not find II necessary actu-
ally 10 seize territory.
II the above outlined policy fails. then
Japan can turn back 70 the pohcy OF
commercial expansion by territorial ac-
qulstion. Along this road there IS great
peril There is first OF all, the great pos
great nation got a severe drubbing at the
hands of Japan. but II should by no
means be considered that Russia is out OF
the Chinese game because OF that setback
on the contrary, the ancient aggressive
policy of Russia has never been aban-
doned. as the Monaghan affair shows. and
II may easily happen, despite any agree
ments which may exist al present, that
Russia and Japan will again war with
each other. Indeed. in China one often
hears talk OF it-conhdent assertions that
sooner or later they will come together
again. Wait, one is told, until the Siberian
RAILWAY is double-tracked. and there IS
occasional talk OF belligerent statements
of the Russian military men and rumors
of great military depots, etc. In China
