Toxic government regrets It's belli-
cose attitude which had an entirely
different effect on the American
public than the japanese fire eaters
had expected.
The Toxic government became
alarmed when Ambassador Joseph
Grew, who was considered as an
appeaSer by the Japanese diplomats
because of his conciliatory attitude
and soft voice, adopted an unex-
pectedly firm tone. They became
further concerned over the reports
from the United States that Amer
ican public opinion was determined
to face a conflict with Japan. It
appears that reports from the EN-.
bassy in Washington are seldom
read by high-ranking officials in
Toxic. But recently they decided
to see what the men on the spot
had to say and their kilograms in
| dicated that America was ready to
fight if necessary.
Better Treatment Forecast.
The various measures adopted by
Washington, together with the
changed attitude of Ambassador
Grew and reports from the Japanese
Embassy here, decided the Toxic
government to soften down in the
hope that American people could be
lulled into feeling that the "Japa-
nese mean we'll" In official WASH
ington quarters it is believed that
for the next few weeks the Japanese
will treat this country with silk
gloves and feed Americans in the
Far East with sugar and honey.
They hope that once the first scare
! is over and this Nation feels that
the danger of a conflict is over,
the japanese Army will be able to
continue its plans for expansion, adj
vising us all the time that what
ever happens in the Far East is not
contrary to the interests of this
country.
The same policy Of reassuring the
people of the United States has been
adopted by Rome But the case of
the italians is different. In certain
official quqarters in Washington, 1t
is believed that if the tide were to
turn against Germany. the Italians
would be the first to desert the axis
ship.
A Friendly Gesture.
Hence, the State Department has
decided to make friendly gesture
towards Rome by appointing Alex
ander Kirk, heretofore Charge
d'Affaires in Berlin, as Charge in
Rome.
Ambassador William Phillips is In
this country and is in such poor
health that he is not expected to
return to his post. The State De-
pArtment could have detailed an
other officer of the foreign service to
serve as Charge d'Affaires in Rome,
but it selected Mr.. Kirk because he
had lived in Rome where he owns
a mansion, for many years, and IS
known for his sympathy for the
italian people.
Mr.. Kirk will of course. be able to
send better reports than any officer
less sympathetically known in Italy.
But the Italians appreciate the ges.
