WORLD-WAR IS IMMINENT.
BELLEFONTAINE, O., April 81
1T will take force. OF 100000 men
ten years to conquer Mexico. If war
with Japan is averted it will be the
eighth wonder of the world"
These are the statements OF DR.. e.
A. Sinks, of Lima, former United
States army surgeon, stationed in the
Philippines, and later SurgeOn-Gener-
al of General Orozco's army in MeXt-
CO.
Armed Intervention on the part of
the United States has been necessary
IN Mexico for long time. Wilson's
policy Of 'watchful waiting has been
irritating. He was probably await
ing the completion of the Panama
Canal. Now he is taking the incident
of the failure to salute the flag as an
excuse for entering Mexico.
What are they sending the entire
fleet to Mexican waters for? Just
one reason-Japan. We people in the
Eastern part of the country do not
realize the gravity of the yellow peril
Japan has today a larger force of
disciplined soldiers, fully organized
equipped, within our borders than the
whole standing army of the United
States Army officers concede that in
the event of war with Spain the
Japs could take the whole of our
Western coast with hardly a strug-
gle. Of course it would be only tenn
porary. 1t is generally known that
the United States is spending large
sums fortifying the passes of the
Rocky Mountains in case of just such
thing.
Our standing army is a mere dab.
As soon as our army gets tied up with
Mexico Japan will strike. Mexico
used to think she could easily whip
The United States If it wasn't for
Texas. Now she thinks she can whip
us, including Texas.
Germany and Russia want the
trade of the Orient and wish Uncle
Sam out of the Philippines. They
would support Japan financially. A
world war is bound to come. | know
from what | have experienced and be-
lieye it is upon us. That is why the
United States has sent all of her war
ships to Mexico-to rush through the
canal in case of Japanese outbreak"
