I have heard attributed to Admiral
Yarnell, our sagacious former naval
commander in the Far East, the view
that diplomatic protests to Japan,
unless accompanied by simultaneous
dispatch Of warships to Asiatic
waters, leave the roost-ruling army
clique utterly unmoved. Another of
our top-flight authorities, who knows
Nipponese psychology through long,
close-range contact, declares that
our periodical finger r-wagging and
wrist-slapping, instead of intimidat-
ing Japan, only infuriate her. He
says that every time we scowl at the
power-wielding militarists, without
backing up words with deeds, Ja-
pans disrespecS for State Depart

Messrs. Arita, Yuma and other

cover that Uncle Sam is not the
spineless paciflst they think he is. If
We should resort to force to prevent
Japanese absorption of the East In
dies, we would not be guided pri-
marily by any consideration of
Dutch interests, but because, as Hull
states, upsetting of the status quo
would be prejudicial to the cause
of stability, peace and security, not
only in the region of the Neither
lands possessions, but in the entire
Pacific area" This means, in our
case, without verbal camouflage, the
Philippines, Guam and our general
defense system, including Hawaii,
Alaska and the western approaches
to the Panama Canal.
The trouble is that Japan has
learned by experience that American
diplomatic protests generally amount
only to platonic platitudes. Right
now, she sees a United States Con-
gress, in the bondage OF keep-us out
of-war sentiment, hesitant even to
offend Toxic either by enacting an
embargo on export Of war sinews or
appropriating few millions for har-
bor Improvements at Guam. Even
the denunciation of the 1911 trade
treaty-our boldest and most con-
crete protest against japanese brig
andage-has caused no slowup in
the plans Of the army to crush China
and establish that new order in
Asia, which Is designed to freeze out
the rest Of the world. France signals
support of the Hull protest on the
Dutch East Indies. but that's hardly
more than pious gesture.
