JAPAN'S MENACE
DENIED BY SA|T0
Ambassador Says There Is
No Imperialism or "0pen
Door" Opposition.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PTeSS.
NEW YORK, January 5.-Ambas-
sador Hirosi Saito of Japan told the
Foreign Policy Association today ia
pan had no imperialistic designs on
the Far East nor had it any intention
of jeopardizing the principle of the
open door" in China.
1T is impossible" he declared, "for
Japan to be a menace to you, and I
know that you do not want to be a
menace to my country"
Discussing what he termed "the
principal misgivings" of the Ameri-
can people regarding Japan's demands
for naval parity and announcement OF
the Washington treaty, Saito said
they dwelt largely on japanese policy
in the Far East and China.
No Far East Designs.
"As to the first point" he said, Il
will most emphatically say that Japan
has no aggressive or imperialistic de-
signs on the Far East or anywhere
else. The Japanese menace
looms up only when seen through
alarmists' spectacles.
Had we been aggressive We could
already have gone far on various oc-
casions. We need not have approved
the development of a Manchu and
Chinese government in the new state
of Manchoukuo. To those who are
willing to look fairly at our history,
it seems to me the facts are obvious.
"As to the second anxiety, it is first
necessary to examine the exact mean
ing of the time -honored term, the
open door.
1T came into being at the time
when China was partitioned into
spheres of influence by Great Brit
ain, France, Russia and Germany.
Japan had no part in that Partition
ing =
