where it might become a menace. In
Japan it is altogether unimpOrtant,
save for the point of honor.
The Japanese islands are crowded,
but there is plenty of room for racial
expansion in Korea and ManChuria.
It is pride that complexities things.
The japanese have come through
wars in 20 years past, and have given
a good account of themselves in each.

The Japanese government just now
is in a situation Of peculiar difficulty.
The peace conference did not give
the Nipponese all that they desired,
The readjustment of finance and in,
dustry to meet peace conditions has
not been easy. The demand for pc.
Iitical and economic reform is insist
