Annexation of South Sea Islands.


A formal declaration that Japan inA
tends to retain possession, after the
war, of the South Sea islands, now I'M
der her protection, Is urged upon the
government by the Tokyo Asahi. The
new French cabinet has declared, In

kyo journal, they will not stop fight.
ing until the recovery of Alsace-Lor-
raine; it is wise for nation to de-
clare It's aims in prosecuting a war.
notwithstanding this, some Japanese
bureaucratic statesmen make q point
of denouncing the attitude of those in
ravor OF declaring to the world the,
Just and proper demands of the Japa-
nese people, in connection with the,
war lest 1t hurt the feelings of the.
allies. 1t Is a mistake to view dec
laration of the just claims of d nation.
as demonstration of selfish inten-
tons or breach of international ETH
quette, says the Tokyo paper, and the.
japanese government should follow
the example of the French cabinet and
make a public declaration at once as
TO Japan's intention to retain nosses-
sion OF me South Sea islands after the
war and to make other proper claims.
such frank declarations on the part
or beiligerents are important in maxi
ing known to all concerned their true
intentions. The Tokyo Asahi concludes
by declaring that the japanese people
are DESTROYS that their government
shall take such step at the present
important juncture.
