PEACE WITH JAPAN
SYMPOSIUM THEME
II. W. Mabie, Hamilton Holt
and DR.. Iycnaga Speak at
Free Synagogue.
WARNING TO u. S. SOUNDED

In symposium on How Can We
Keep Peace with JAPAN Hamilton
Wright Mabie. Hamilton Holt and Or r.
Iyenaga occupied the pulpit OF the Free
Synagogue in Carnegie Hall yesterday.
The two Americans, who have visited
Japan. said that II the United States
does not conciliate that nation war will
result and the blood will be on our hearts
and the japanese speaker. who has been
connected with the Foreign Department
of his Government. said the principles of
justice call for some action on the part
of the United States in connection with
the Callfornla-Japanese question.
Hamilton Holt recited a series OF 'n-
suits or semi-insults" which this country
has given TO Japan since the feeling arose
here that Japan was getting "cocky."
The most important insult was the action
OF tho California Legislature preventing
japanese from holding land IN that
State. he said.
How are We to remove this just re-
sentiment on the part OF Japan? BY re-
vising our whole Oriental policy Pass
laws that any man of any race who comes
to this country to live may have the
right to become an American citizen.
"IIow are we going to stop inmigra-
ton? by passing a general law limiting
the immigration Of all nations.
Japan would do anything We asked
her, provided she could do 1t with honor.
II we do not concillate Japan and China,
II conclliating China ever becomes nee
, essary. "A suspicion OF the United States
will grow up and Japan and China will
arm. The United states will arm. The
result will be war"
Speaking of the California Japanese
question. Dr.. Iyenaga said lie believed
the American Government is In honor
bound to right the wrong OF violating the
sacred treaty entered into with Japan
Concerning the Philippines he said
Japan has never dreamed. nor will
ever dream OF selling the islands No,
| even II you present them as a gift, unless
IT be accompanied with AN educational and
development fund of one billion dollars,
Japan will surely decline to accept your
offer why should Japan cove the Philip
I pines" For colonization? No. Our exc
perienco in Fornosa has proved that tho
/ tropical climate is as UNIT for us as for
YOU"
/ Hamilton Wright Mabo prcfaced his
talk with the remark that the worst
offence of the japanese. as II seemed to
; impress California was their seeking in
tclligence and acquiring 1t.
THE danger Is here" said DR.. Nabe.
J that we may stir UP the people Of Japan
So they will rush TO war. II there is
! trouble. the blood will be on our hearts.
THE trouble with the japanese" he re-
/ marked pleasantly. "ls they're so polite
. Isn't It strange that in impolite countries,
such as the United States. England and
! Germany. there always Is Suspicion OF
politeness as being insincerity?
I "Our policy should be: Pray first for
/ reason so We may have Justice. Dplo-
macy can settle all questions"

War Adds One-tourth
to Debt of I8 Nations
Begcrents Have Spent About O0OO0O,OOO in Six
Months or S28O,0O0000 Week, While Neutral
Countries Also Have Suffered.


Bank of Algeria and borrowed $50, 600.
600. making $6OO,0OO.OO0 in all. This.
however, proved insufficient for the first
expenses of the campaign and in Septem-
Der the Government had increased It's
loans to $1,000, 900, 900.
Germany's second Loan.
Many thought this would be the end Of
national borrowing for n while, but in the
early part OF December Germany issued
second war loan of 1880. 100000. In
order that readers may realize what this
means let me state that at the beginning
or the war the German Empire had
debt of less than $1,000, 1000, 900 and
that all the German States had combined
debts of only about $4,000. 900 900, making
a total Indebtedness of only about S4,-
OOO,0OO,OO0. which amount the German
Empire and the individual States had
been half century in arcumulating
Yet the first siX months OF the war has
added 100000 to this former IN
debtcdness This means that in the last
six months both England and Germany
have added 80 per cent. to the indebted
ness which they had been half a century
in accommodating.
When to these huge figures we add the
italian loan OF 5000, 00O, 600. the Dutch
loan Of $4,000, 900, the Canadian loan OF
SlOO,OOOOOO, the various Russian loans
ana the loans of tho Swiss Norwegian
and other neutral nations, we begin to see
the real effects of the war our own
country has not issued a war loan. out we
nave put out war tax, which amounts
TO the same thing From talks which {
have had in Washington | believe that
tho Government hopes TO raise 500, 900, :
900 from this war tax.
When these various loans are added We
mud that the total amount is practically
$1,000. 100000. which is the same figure
arrived at by the other method. This
means that the national debt Of the
eighteen leading nations in tho world.
which amounted to $4,000, 600. 600 at the
beginning OF tn" war. has been increa sed
moro than % per cent during the first
six months OF the war
But tho saddest part Of il is that these
figures do not include the hundreds of
thousands ot men killed. the Industries
ruined or the great physical and mental
suffering both Of the men at the front
and their families who are left behind
These costs no figures can portray: in
fact | believe our mortal minds are in
capable Of realizing their immensely. So
much for the debit side OF the ledger.
