newspapers TO be impartlal--is as to
where our own danger lies.
Absurd as 1t is to give the "militarism"
Of Germany as an excuse for UNFOLDING
the military Government OF Russia and
Japan nevertheless, even If the argument
was sound how does II affect this coun-
try? Fortunately. We are not concerned
