Mr. Russell, who has but recently
returned from a trip to PACING
waters and the Far East. expressed
the opinion that the exaggeration
OF the enormlty of the japanese
menace by a certain type Of news
paper has aroused the people OF
the country to an unwarranted
pitch of anxiety and has done much
to create the same feeling In the
Mikado's empire. The lecturer salo
that while he was in japan recently
he found a great amount OF frieno-
ship for America, but also much
hysteria, which he claims has been
caused by the rantipgs OF part oil
the American press.
In dealing with Far East prob
lens, Mr.. Russell also urged tha'
the United States have more con-
cern In the civil war in China He
believes the internal struggle
among the Chinese Is now an IN
ternational problem and affects tine
peace CT the world.
Mr.. Russell emphasized the need
