There can be no question as to~wherea the

WASHINGTON = That little
w family squabble in Toxic is
being watched intently here-and
presumably in all other world
capitals-for its possible bearing
on the great standing question:
When will the next big war
break out-and where?
Two years ago the dopesters Of
international politics anticipated
an early war between Japan and
Russia which would spread at
least as far west as Germany.
More recently they have believed
the first outbreak would come in
Europe. Now worldwide atten-
ton shifts back to the Far East.
If the extremist militarists who
killed the ruling Japanese states
men turn out to have made some
Roadway by their uprising, there
will be an increasing disposition to
believe that the next international
slaughter will begin with a Russo
Japanese clash, which almost inev.
itably would involve Germany,
France, and most of Europe.
COMMENT has been made on the
~ recent cockiness of Russians
following skirmishes with Japa-
nese in Mongolia. Diplomats here
know, as few others do, that some
of those skirmishes were of sub.
stantial proportions. @
