War Riddles u. S. POLICY
Sino-J Japanese Situation Emphasizes Inconsistencies
of America.

The surrender Of the Philippines
marks another zigzag in our Pacific
policy. These islands, which lie on
the farther side Of Japan from us,
as any one can see II he looks at
globular map Of the world, have been
granted provisional independence
largely upon the insistence Of sugar
and vegetable oil interests in the
United States. Nevertheless. Gen
Douglas Macarthur, our former chief
OF staff, is in the Philippines training
large Philippine army, which by
United States statute will become
part OF our armed forces if we are
involved in a war during the proba-
tionary period Of 10 years.
That means that on the one hand
we retire from the islands, while, on
the other, we militarize them for pro-
lection against an invader. 1t would
be logical either to keep the islands
Or let them go We do neither.
The commercial figures would ap-
parently indicate that we have no
reason for caring what happens to
China, but this is not true. First of
all, 1t Is not in our interests as a
ce-loving Nation, whose ultimate
economic welfare depends upon the
maintenance of peace, to accept with
equanimity the appalling growth of
military aggression all over the world,
and the wholesale violation of treaties
and disregard of international law. If
there is to be no law left, as between
nations, nothing is safe-neither COM
merce, nor investments, nor any ter
ritory, nor any peoples.
The Undeclared War.
We are gnatories-together with
Japan-to nine-poWer treaty guar
anteeing the territorial integrity OF
China. The violation OF that treaty
in 1881, when Japan seized Man.
chukuo, was the preface to the vio-
lation Of Ethiopia, of the Locarno
treaty, and the wholesale foreign in
tervention in Spain.
1t is not logical to suppose that the
new type OF undeclared warfare can
go on indefinitely without, at some
point, in whatever future, involving
nations and interests nearer home
Every successful step that Japan takes
in China is an encouragement to other
nations to pursue the same policies
somewhere else. And If half the world
is given over to the pursuit of such
policies. 1t will be futile for us to 20 on
pretending that any transaction can
be carried out without at least the
show of force.
Actually, the Sino-Japanese war
shows up the glaring Inconsistencies
OF our whole foreign policy. We are
trying to be in the world, but not Of it,
We are great power, but We desire
neither to draw the consequences nor
accept the responsibilities of our posi-
ton. And neither do we wish to cease
being great power. Public opinion

really to see what isolation would

| We shall not, he says, maintain troops
indefinitely" in China-but indefi-
nitely is highly indefinite word.
Although we had no difficulty In
making up our minds that state OF
war existed in Ethiopia and in Spain
we do not officially recognize that a
state OF war exists in China Yet,
this is undoubtedly war to the av-
erage American in the street and to
the invaded Chinese and actually three
Americans have already been killed
in 1t.
Those who are aware Of the COM
pleXltieS in the Sino-Japanese situa-
tion-the complexities and the dam
gers-are inclined to sympathize with,
rather than criticize the administra-
ton, which has only added one con-
founding factor: the neutrality act
itself The other complicated factors
in the Pacific is inherited from pre-
vious administrations. These taken
together, neither harmonic nor make
sense
No Policy in Pacific.
Although we-or. let us say, rather,
the United States Navy-consider our
selves a Pacific power, we have no
policy in the Pacific. II our policy
consists in the protection and extern
sion Of our Far Eastern trade, then
our interests lie with Japan and not
with China. In the past two years,
for instance. We have sold China about
s82 900, 900 worth of goods and bought
from her twice as much, and even these
sales are smaller in reality because
many of them were made to Japanese
interests operating in China.
On the other hand, the United
States is Japan's principal source Of
raw materials, and her principal mar
ket. Between 1882 and 1896 We sold
her goods valued at 1868 900 900, and
bought from her goods to the value
of s431 100000.
The Chinese market, so far as the
United States is concerned, is largely
myth. What it might be in the
future is speculation. Our total
investment in China is also negligible
around 100000, ,000-and We an
nually spend millions to protect this
Investment and our small trade. In
the past We have insisted on the
open door in China, upon the pre-
sumption that some day the China
market would be Of immense value
to us. But it has never materialized

First, however, we have the ride to

The gates of Buckingham open. A

Inside more than 1000 participants
and spectators have been waiting
since $50 that morning. Duchesses in
their furrowed ermine capes, their dia

browning and amounting of the king
and queen will be described in the
next article. Thus, Central Press
readers will be able to follow, moment

minister ritual as it is broadcast from
20 micropbones in various parts Of
the great Abbey.
Leaving the scene Of his enthrone-
noent, George VI departs wearing the
red ruby, pearl-studded imperial state
crown. Queen Elizabeth bears on her
head crown containing the priceless

the fanfare of trumpets, the king and
the queen resume their places in the
