America and Britain
lCincinnati Enouirerl

Cincinnati Enquirer
 Hints of closer Anglo-American cooperation have been numerous in the last week or so The speeches made by Secretary Cordell Hull and Captain Anthony Eden British Foreign Secretary, recently obvi- ously designed to offer solid front against the dicta torshps The Presidents speech-that part of it relating to democracy and dctatorship-was call culated to buttress this Anglo-American gesture
 few days later the American and British Gov ernments protested simultaneously although not jointly against the bombing of Nanking. Meantime the United States joined the League of Nations Ad- visory Committee For Manchuria, indicating the pcs sbity least of collective policy with the British and other league members in the Far Eastern crisis
 Two other hints were given One arose from talks at the Treasury Department between Secretary Nor genthau and the British Under-secretary of the Ex- chequer, suggesting closer monetary collaboration. The other Secretary Eden's clear advocacy of an Anglo American tariff agreement hopes for which had nearly vanished.
 It is not to be expected that the United States will risk involvement in either to her stake in China to stabilize the chaotic situat ton in Europe But there is a possibility that Washing ton will awaken to its opportunity and add it's weight in the worlds councils to prevent aggressons by the Relationships. Such a diplomacy has relatively few risks, and might go long way to restore general respect for international law in a world too largely governed by the bufing tactics of reckless rrespon sible dictators. In this the British and American have a common interest and a joint

WAR THREAT GROWS MORE oMINoUs

The war threat grows more ominous. Japan apparently ncensed by the statement of President Roosevelt condemning aggressor nations contrary internat tonal policy comes out flat-footedly with the assertion that she is seeking more land in China for her increasing population and. she proposes to take it regardless of the world theory for peace In Europe, Mussolini the Italian strong man. continues pour and munitions into insurgent Spain in effort to defeat the existing Loyalist government despite repeated warnings by Great Britain and France
 Our own State Department, following up the aggressor statement of the Presidents places the blame directly Japan for the present action in China declaring it inconsistent with the principles which should govern relationship between nations and contrary to the provisions of the ninetpower
 treaty regarding the principal policies to be followed in matters concerning China and to those in the Kellogg Briand pact. It goes further and declares the conclusions of this government with respect to the foregoing general accord with those of the assembly of the League of Nations"
 Germany, still recalling the defeat and loss Of colonies in the world war and ambitious to square accounts from her viewpoint, jumps into the inter change of pointed statements with warning to the United States to remember the late President Woodrow Wilson's effort to safeguard peace for all time through the League of Nations.
 Of course vitroc sta tements, do not necessarily lead to war. But when dctatorial powers such as Japan, Italy and Germany have great war machines ready if not itching for action, the interna tonal picture is too rosy. The world may hope not but this constant barage of verbal insult may well be the forerunner of forced international alliances the United States Great Britain and probably France the major forces in allied power and Germany Italy and Japan joining forces in common purpose-ag gression.
 First of course this country will exhaust every avenue to keep free of all foreign alliances but in this modern world of fast communication and trans portation there may not be such thing absolute neutrality.

Alaska Defenses and National Safety
Seattle Post-1ntelligencerl

Seattle PoSt-1ntelllgencer) s@
 Senator Ernest Lundeens declaration in favor of adequate defenses in Alaska, to ward off any possibility of attack on the North Pacific. is entitled to more than ordinary attention.
 It shows a growing recognition that such defenses are necessary, not merely for the protection of the Pacific Northwest but for the protection of the Nation
 Senator Lundeen is from Minnesota, far removed from possible coastal attacks He elected by the Farmer-Labor Party which has pacifist incinations
 He is certainly militarist or jingo For al- though he served private in the Spanish American War that experience gave him such a dstaste for war he voted against entry into the World War and against conscripton for foreign service.
 Yet upon his return from a four-week trip to Alaska the Minnesota senator declares:
 "As we have built defenses in the Hawaiian Islands so we must build them in Alaska. It is not necessary to carry armament to China, to Europe to Africa We can use all of it right American soil :"
 The reservation of large area near Fairbanks, las the first step looking toward development of an army air base and the announcement that the United States fleet will carry the most far-reaching tac- tca exercises in the North Pacific this winter indi cate clearly enough that the administration and the military experts recognize the vital role of Alaska in any plane for adequate protection of this country
 Much more needs to be done to insure complete safety for this region and for the United States
 National defense is not party issue nor a geo. graphic issue
 The active support of all branches of government concerned in the problem is required
 And Senator Lundeen's conclusion is another in- dication that in fair way toward getting it.
