London, May 6.--British overseas
dominions would not tolerate an Anglo
Japanese treaty having as its object
opposition TO the United States, de-
clared the Weekly Spectator today.
The newspaper cited facts to show that
an alliance between England and Japan
was never meant and never could hc
used against America.
Yet we have until now left the most
important argument OIL our side UNI
stated, the newspaper continued.
Even the most wildly imperialistic and
aggressive of Britons do not conten-
plate with pleasure the blowing of the
British empire into smithereens in a
single instant. We all know perfectly
well this would be the result IL we went
to war against America, not to support
some rights. of our, own but in order to
help the Japanese. The moment such
n war was declared, the bonds that
united us with our dominions would be
severed.
