Anglo-Jap
Alliance Is

Held Is Belief; Col
onies Would Not War

London, May 6.-Br:tish over
seas dominlons would not tolerate
an Anglo-Japanese treaty having
as its object opposition to the
United States, declared the Week
ly Spectator today. The newspa-
per devoted considerable space to
discussion of Ang1o-AmericaL
relations and Japan, and cited
facts to that an alliance between
England and Japan was never
meant and never could be used,
against America.
Blowing Of the British empire
into smitherines IN single IN
slant would be. the result il we
went to war against America, not
to support some rights of our own,
but in ordcr to help the Japanese. "
the newspaper continued.
"If the people of Australia and
New Zealand were asked on which
side they were going to be in a
war between America and Japan
they would not hesfIste a seconc.
They would not waste time in
reading diplomatic papers or con-
sidering legal points. They would
say:
with one own flesh end bloc !.
# the poor old mother country has
gone mad we cannot help it. Help
the Japanese to take San Francisco
by assault? Good heavens, what
are you talking about. t."
"There could be only one place
for Canada in a finish fight be-
tween Japan and America-by the
side Of America. White South
Africans would have the same an
swer.,"
The Spectator asserted one of
the reasons for continuing the al
lance with Japan hal been the
keeping of peace, to be able to help
calm down Japan's population,
should it become excited on a
"point of honor" The newspaper
concluded by suggesting two Brit
ish proposals to the United
States.
