WHATEVER the rest Of
w the world may think
about it, Japan is proceed
ing with a dispatch indie
ative of thorough prepara-
alton on a well-thought-out
plan in China. There is a
bit of pent-up feeling per-
haps in her impatience with
the protests Of other coun-
tries.
This had its origin many
years ago after another
little brush with China
when Japan, claiming the
spoils of war, decided to
hold Manchuria for her ex-
cess population. 1t was
then that Russia, taking
the initiative, persuaded
England and Germany, and,
we believe, France to join
in a demand to Japan to
get out. At the moment,
the Japanese were worn
with the war, and finan-
cially' in no position for a
major conflict. There was
nothing to do but get out;
and she got out carrying IN
her heart a bitter resent
ment.
When, Immediately after
that, the Chinese permitted
Russia to 60 in and build
the railroad from Siberia
across Manchuria to Port
Arthur. this bitterness was
intensified. When, soon
afterward, the late Senator
Beveridge went to Man
churia to study the condi-
tions, in preparation for his
book. "The Russian Ad-
vance," he discussed this
state of mind of the Japa"
nese with much detail; and
concluded that the Russians
intended to dominate Man
churia, and that the Japa'
nese would not tolerate 1t,
and that a war between Rus
sia and Japan would result.
He was laughed to scorn by
the wise critics, and before
the book he wrote had been
out a week his prediction
was fulfilled. There was a
war and Japan won.

Criminal to Weaken
Our National Defense

But the conditions of the
world today are such that it
is little less than criminal to
weaken our instrumentalit!es
of self-defense in the face Of
a peril. However sincerely
we may strive to keep out of
war, there is the possibility
that we may be forced in
some time for our own de-
tense. Conditions, outwardly
at least, in the spring Of 1914
were eloquent of peace com
pared with conditions today.
The armies in Europe are
greater now than they were
before the shot was fired in
a Balkan town one tragic
summer day.
But in the face of these
facts the Government pro-
poses to reduce our small
Army, and to economize at
the expense of our Navy.
At the Washington Confer
ence in 1921 it was agreed
that the United States and
Japan in their navies should
have a ratio of 3 to 2. Be-
cause Japan has been build
ing up to her rights under
the treaty, and the United
States has been neglecting
her duty and sighting her
navy, at the present rate,
within a short time, Japan
will have a navy as great as
ours.
It is barely possible that
the American officials re-
sponsible may one day bear
a responsibility greater than
any one would care I'd beals

And it seems to me that if

of violence we must study all
the conditions which are &C
countable for that violence. If
we are to track down and
punish the brutality of men,
we should also recognize and
curb the conditions which
arouse the brutality. And
women, themselves, are respon-
sible for many of these condi-
tionS. ....

Mind you, I'm not a prude.
I was never a coy and eau

breezy manner. And I am
certainly not advocating the

our grandmas. But I do be-
1ieve in decency, in dressing

Japanese Demand
Room to Expand

The Japanese problem Of
expansion for the accommo-
dation of her excess popula-
ton and the feeding of her
people remained; and what
ever Japan may say, it is diff
ficult to believe that she is
not now bent on the realiza-
ton of her old ambition.
just as she is pressing for
ward toward it's realization
she encounters again the pro-
tests, but less militant in
tone, from the nations that
deprived her of the spoils of
war many years ago. This is
enough to account for her
almost arrogant indifference
to what other nations say.
There is much that Japan
can say on the subject Of
treaties being violated; but
there is no answer to the
charge that she herself has
shed her treaty obligations
lightly. She is a member of
the League of Nations and
pledged to a peaceable ac-
commodation of differences;
but she renounces the obliga-
tion. And under the Kellogg
pact, which never has been
anything more than a pious
prayer without anything be-
hind it but a hope, she re-
nounced war - "outlawed
war;, - they said at the time
and agreed:
The high contracting par
ties agree that the settlement
or solution of all disputes or
conflicts of whatever nature
or of whatever origin they
may be, which may arise
among them, shall never be
sought except by pacific
i means"
And she has renounced the
KelloggSpact.

Americans Must
Leave Danger Zone

The American people have
a right to expect that our
nationals in China will will
ingly act on any plan the
Government here may devise
for getting them out of
the danger zone during the
crisis. We have always had
a type of American, par
ticularly in other countries,
who are prone to become
chesty. defiant and a little
insolent; and when these,
having it within their power
to escape the danger, insist
on running into it, and get
ting killed, we have a type
of American over here who
vehemently demand that the
entire nation shall become
involved in war to back his
bad judgment and extrava-
giant ideas. We want none
of that this time.
We want to liquidate the
last war before we enter into
another world war.
The Washington times., 1932-02-03

has always been with China
when she was violated bv
Britain, and Germany, and
France as we'll as Japan.
But we are not in possession
of the facts, in all their
ramifications, relating to
this particular conflict be-
tween the two Oriental peo-
Piles.
And no American, not
primarily interesting in
using the blood of slaugh-
tered boys to lubricate the
machinery Of money-making,
wants or will justify any
war on our part.
We have been over-fed
on war; and we have not
digested what we ate. We
will not digest it for an
other generation. The world
is struggling against col
lapse because of the last
war; and another war will
bring the collapse.
But every American will
expect that the Government
will take the necessary
steps to get our nationals
out of the danger zone, and
will protect out property in
terests in that section in so
far as it is possible. If at
the time Of the battle of
Gettysburg a German-owned
mill had been in the line
of fire we would not have
called the battle off. We
certainly would have paid
the damages. But human
life is another thing.
