knew that England probably would
conclude a treaty OF general arbi-
tration with the United States. but
the Japanese government had long
been convinced that. alliance or no
alliance, the British Empire would
never in any conceivable circurn-
stances fight alongside Japan against
the United States.
Therefore. Japan would lose moth
ing by accepting the proposed clause.
Refused to Ratify Treaty.
Thus the restrictive clause was
embodied in the renewed treaty.
Shortly afterwards a treaty of gem
eral arbitration was negotiated be-
tween the British government and the
United States. The Senate. in its wis
dom. declined to ratify it-a proceed
ing for which the British govern
ment. with all its faults, cannot fair
ly be held responsible. Technically,
therefore. the United States Senate
nullified the exclusion of the United
States from the scope of the Anglo
Japanese alliance. until, in Septem-
Der, 1914. what Is known as the
Bryan Spring Rice peace Commits
sion Treaty" was negotiated and duly
ratified. On his own initiative, Sir
Edward Grey then informed the jap
anese government, through Baron In
oIya that in the the British yiew
and for purposes OF the interpre-
tation of the Anglo-Japanese alli-
ance. the Peace Commission Treaty
would be equivalent TO the general
arbitration treaty which the United
States Senate had rendered inopera-
tive.
Consequently the Anglo-Japanese
alliance has not contained any anti
American implication since Septem-
Der. 1914. Whether or not this fact
was ever officially intimated to the
United States, | do not know. Pos

omitted to inform the State Depart
ment. It may also have lima gined
that the British conviction as to
the impossibility of armed hostility
on the part of the Bsitish Empire

Japan shared in 1911, was SUFFICIENT

Relations to China.
The foregoing considerations
ought to dispose OF any sugges-
lions that, under the alliance. the
nations of the British Empire could
or would be called upon to tight
against the United States. But
American objections to the alliance
are based also upon the contention
that II has emboldened Japan to
make encroachments on China ana
to put forward her famous twenty
one demands, which she never
would have done had her position
not been strengthened by allied re-
lationship with Great Britain.
This contention may or may not
be valid in practice. Technically IL
Is incontestable that any Japanese
action directed against the welfare
and integrity of China is contrary
to the letter and spirit of the AM
ance. But IT Is also true that at the
recent conference of the Dominion
and British prime ministers at Lon
don the majority did not favor the
abrogation Of the alliance, which, as
interpreted by the lord chancellor,
was held to renew itself automati-
cally from year to year unless de-
nounced.
People Oppose Alliance.
Into this somewhat blurred situa-
ton came President Hardings IN
