WHITE RACE IN JEOPARDY

We are almost inclined to fall in
with the predictions OF certain writer's
Of late that it is but question of time
until the white race will be more con-
cerned about perpetuating itself than
in the question as to which nation will
dominate the others.
AT the rate things are going it is
only question of time until the white
race will destroy itself by wars such
as.athe one of recent, experience And
when that time comes the yellow ma.
tons will have little difficulty in es-
tablishing themselves throughout the
world and many writers are predict
ing that this will be the program which
win be enacted before many decades
have passed.
Il 1f such a result follows it will not be
difficult to locate the blame. No one
has been able to. discover a sane reason
for the world war through which we
have just passed, which has been the
most destructive to human life of
any war in history and what reas-
on can be assigned by the great
and powerful nations for bouncing
upon each other like bloodthirsty
animals and using every engine of
death and destruction possible. And
when it is over what has there been
in the way of results to justify the
awful slaughter.
If the result predicted comes the
blame would be lodged nowhere except
with the white people and no better
excuse can be offered than petty jeal-
Ousies which caused the war.
1T is not difficult to foresee that al
ready there is great unrest in the far
east and all that would be necessary
would be an alliance of the yellow
races which would cause the world to
take notice of the peril
The question is will we continue our
and senseless policies
of undermining the strong nations of the
earth until disintergation to the ex-
tent the opportunity is offered the vel.
low races. an opportunity to dominate
the earth. There is at least enough
i'm the suggestion to seriously engage
the best thought of the leading states
