lions to China must be constructive

Sometimes Chinese and Japanese
will not agree on what is helpful;
sometimes they will distrust each
-
other; sometimes neither will trust
the western powers; sometimes the
investment of capital, with its stake
in peace and order, will seem inva-
sion or exploitation.
All these things have happened
and are happening between the
United States and Mexico, whose
interests are nevertheless bound by
the closest ties. They are bound to
happen between China and Japan
But in the long run the truth pre-
walls.
And the long truth is that, on the
showdown, China is stronger than
