Denunciatlon of the treaty re-
suited from two things, our dis
approval of Japan's conduct in
China. coupled with Japanese
mistreatment of American indi-
yiduals and property in the Far
East. Our nationals were never
so badly treated as, for instance.
the British. but Japanese army
officials have been far from
gentle when American rights
were concerned. And Washing
ton observers think now that
this government will not con-
slider renewing the treaty until
Japan give absolute guarantees
that Americas rights will bn
fully respected. ~.
There are other points that
must be agreed to. It's a good
bet that our relations with
Japan will get materially worse
before they get better.
