Press in all Countries)

TOXIC, June 27. (UP)-Jap-
This fact was forcefully i'm
Outstanding and cooperation are
of the most Importance to peace,
not only in the far east but in
the world, in the opinion of his
imperial majesty, Hirohito, en-
peror of Japan.
This wact was forcefully i'm
pressed on me when | was grant
ed the first audience extended to
an American newspaperman by
any Japanese ruler.
There exists today no question
capable of disturbing the good
relations existing between Japan
and the United States, in the
opinion of Foreign Minister
Count Yasuya Uchida, to whom
| was referred for an outline Of
the governments attitude toward
the present world situation.
On the contrary, according to
the foreign minister, Japan and
the United States are today
bound more firmly than ever be-
fore by powerful commercial
ties. These should be greatly
strengthened in the immediate
future, as American trade in
Manchoukuo, already on the up
grade, continues to expand, and
this expansion demonstrates that
the creation of the far east
newest republic will in no way
menace the "open door" in the
far east.
My introduction to the cmper-
or was made by the American
AMBASSADOR, Joseph C.. Grew, with
whom | motored to the palace.
The conversational exchange be-
tween the emperor and myself
cannot be termed an interview,
as the rules of the court prohibit
direct quotations. This rule new
er has been waived. Further
more, foreign policy is not pri-
marily the interest of his males
ty, but of the foreign minister.
However, it is permissible to
state that the emperor did evil
dence a clear understanding of
and a keen interest in the sub
ject Of Japanese-American friend
ship and good will, present and
future. He declared the subject

JAPANESE EMPEROR FIRM IN
y HIS FRIENDSHIP FOR u. 5.
Believes Cooperation Between Japan And America OF
Utmost Importance In Preserving Peace OF World

one on which his interest con-
stantly was focused because of
his belief that the maintenance
of Japanese-American I'm d. r.
standing and goodwill is bound
to have a powerful and benign
effect on the peace of the world.
RING OF SINCERITY
The cordial earnestness of his
manner and the simplicity and
directness of his statements car
ried an unacceptable ring of sin
cerity and conveyed very defini-
tely the suggestion that the wave
of a much more friendly feeling
toward the United States, now
evident throughout Japan, is also
reflected in the imperial palace.
Our meeting occurred in the
Phoenix hall, formal audience
chamber, which is a relatively
small but gorgeously lacquered
room, hung with tapestries but
devoid of furniture, except for
the Emperor's chair Of red lac
quer, set between two ancient
cloisonne veses of huge proper
tions.
The Emperor wore the simple
khaki uniform of a generalissimo,
service cap tucked under his
left arm and his left hand rest
ing on the hilt of his sword.
FIRM HANDSHAKE
On introduction, he extended
his right hand in western fash
ion for a firm handshakc, with
al, the vigor and warmth of one
accustomed to professional greet
ing. A pleasant smile occasion
ally punctuated his remarks-a
smile which did much to take the
chill from the otherwise icy for
mality of a ritualistic presenta-
ton.
Throughout our conversation,
similar cordially characterized
the word of the official inter
prefer, but the faces Of the two
chamberlains behind his majesty
remained completely without ex-
preston. Outside the chamber
entrance, other somherly-clad
functionaries maintained equally
blank faces, as though no word
of the conversation penetrated
their understanding. Through
out our exchanges, it was Obyi-
Gus that, while he spoke only in
Japanese, his majesty is CONVEX
SAINT with English.
