Insurance to Cover U. Slap War
Risk Reported Issued.

London, June e3-The Daily Elk
press today printed the following
cablegram from its Toxic CORE
spondent:
Maritime insurance companies
have been asked for and are granting
rates to cover the risk of war be-
tween Japan and the United States
within the next IL months. Ibis
concrete expression of fear is haunt
ing every port on the Pacific from
the shores of America to the Persian
Gulf. The naval programs of both
countries are interpreted as evidence
that they are preparing for war
Japan has begun building 10 post
Jutland" ships in answer to the IL on
the American program.
THE Navy Department has or
dered a division of dreadnaughts
and destroyers added to the Pacific
fleet. There is an analogy to pre-
war preparations in the North Sea Ill
the ornaments race of Japan and
America. I have discussed the mat
ter with many prominent Japanese,
getting the impression that the time
is now ripe to lay all cards on the
table. What is needed is a show
down. 1t should not be difficult to
remove fears OF Japan. Japan's
dread OF war is real enough to in
duce her to enter into longtime
agreement. The fear of war would
disappear if both countries state
frankly their aims toward China
The foregoing dispatch was dated
May 20. 1t is presumed that the
extraordinary delay in transmission
was caused by the japanese censor.
