EASTERN AND WESTERN MONROE DOCTRINE

America for Americans and the
| Orient for Orlentals is the sum and
substance of the new agreement be-
| tween the United States and Japan.
In return for greater respect for our
exclusion laws and stronger assurance
of aid in the war against Germany the
United States formally recognizes
Japan's Monroe doctrine in the Orient.
Had England and France been willing
TO do as much three years ago Jap
anese army would have been support
ing either the Italians or the Russians
by this time.
Japan asp!res TO recognition as one
Of the big powers of the world. She
wants TO be considered a full partner
in the international company Of gov
ernments and demands the right to
manage its own department which Is
the Orient. The United States has
given Japan the recognition 1t Graves
and has granted full authority to e1-
ercise it's own initiative in its own part
Of the world
What the United States does IN its
international relations during this war
the world will do so dependent are all
nations upon our aid in this war. and
Japan today feels that all the big
powers have as much as consented 10
take her into their company.
Japan is not privileged 20 despo!l
China or close its markets TO the trade
Of other nations, but as the United
States has often stepped in when some
irresponsible South American govern
ment got into trouble with some larg-
er power. so Japan will hencetorth be
consulted whenever any other large
power wants 70 exercise q sphere Of
influence in CHINA Japan is 20 be the
big br6ther Of the Orient. the United
States IS now the big brother of the
two Americas and the two big brothers
have agreed 10 recognize each others
rights.
Our administration al Washington
has acted wisely About the only
cause for friction with Japan has been
the humiliation Of the Japanese IN be-
ing treated as an inferior race. Now
that their dignity, rights and authority
have been recognized on their own side
of the globe they can appreciate our
desire for exclusion Of Orientals from
the Americas without so much offense.
Their demand for recognition Of their
own Monroe doctrine was a just one,
supported by more ability to maintain
it than the United States could show
when President Monroe asserted our
rights in the western hemisphere and
they are entitled to full recognition Of
their interests in the Orient being
paramount to the interests Of any other
outside nation.

since. This much is absolutely certain

held for two terms. It Is not always
safe to predict but recent events give
evidence of what g going to happen.
There is no doubt that the liberals"

the disappointment and its concomi-
