Toxic, Dec. 1i.-(By A. P0-The two
public speeches of Edgar a. Bancroft,
new United States ambassador to
Japan. one before the Pan-Pacifc Club
on Saturday and the other before the
Japan-American Association on Friday,
has drawn sharp comment from Sec
ton of the Toxic press.
The English edition of Nichi Nichi
quoting the ambassadors plea that
Japan have faith in America and Prcs-
ident Coolidge" asks:
what does he mean, asking Of us
an obvious impossibility? Has Pres
ident Coolidge or the United States
given Japan anything concrete to go
on? None of them has given us en-
traditional friendship between the two
nations. Can We under the circum-
stances comply with Ambassador Ban
crofts request with pride or self-re-
spect?"
Hugai Shogo Shimpu in the same
vein says: IF the future can be judg-
ed by the past, Japan will have to hes
Itate in taking the American ambassa-
dor at his words Continuing. it says:
There seems to be wide difference
between the attitude of the United
States and the policy pronounced by
the ambassador. Nothing could be
more inconsistent with the spirit of
peace and friendship than the military
policy America now is following such
as expansion of her auxiliary feet Pa
cific maneuvers."

was his efforts in behalf Of Ireland.
David Lloyd George. former premier
OF England. gave former Governor

Lloyd George. then premier Of Eng
land, sent his first message to De Va

among the topics discussed by them
on that occasion was the situation in
Ireland. Mr.. Glynn told the premier
that II was only by settling the Irish
question that good relations between
the United States and England could
be made possible. 1t was then that
the prime minister authorized his
American visitor TO extend an invita-
tion to De Valera and the other Irish
chiefs to come TO London without
conditions and without exacting prom
ises from them" Immediately Mr..
Glynn conveyed the invitation Of the
Irish cause. Shortly after came the
