This Changing World
Diplomats Giving 100-to-l Odds Thot War
Will Breok Out Involving japan

terial has been transported to
Indo-C China since its occupation
by Japan year ago, and the
major portion of the Nipponese
fleet is reported to be concen-
trated between Formosa and the
Indo- Chinese naval bases.
Despite the temperate tone
adopted by the japanese negoti-
ators in Washington, there is
strong belief that the Toxic gov
ernment intends to camouflage its
decision to move with lightning
speed in the South Pacific soon
after the troop landings are
completed.
Joseph C. Grew, United States
Ambassador at Toxic, who here
tofore has obtained useful in
formation from japanese officials,
now finds himself in a complete
diplomatic black-out. For sew
eral days he has not been able
to transmit to the State Depart
ment other information than the
official statements carried in the
Toxic press.

Mr.. Crews contacts, like those
of the other members of his en-
bassy staff, are restricted now TO
a number Of officials specially
designated by the Toxic govern
ment. The atmosphere in the
japanese capital is one of eX-
treme tension, which compares,
military men say, with that exist
ing in the front lines on the eve
of decisive battle.

The chances of avoiding a
conflict in the Pacific are now
so slim that diplomatic gamblers
are giving odds of 100 to l in
favor of war involving Japan
and 10 to l that it breaks out
before the end of the year.
From the latest exchanges of
views between American officials
and the japanese negotiators,
Ambassador Nomura and Saburo
Kurusu, it is evident that the
japanese have definitely made
up their minds to risk war with
the A. B. c. D. powers.

Evening star., 1941-12-05

The only reason for their
continuance of negotiations with
the United States is to give their
navy and army general stats
time to concentrate the forces
which are being sent south,
either from home bases or vari-
Gus parts of China.
Observations by American and
British intelligence officers re-
veal that the japanese probably
have in mind more than an at
tack on Thailand. They also
hope, if permitted to land in
Indo-China all the forces which
are now on the high seas or in
the harbors of Saigon and Tong
king, to launch a surprise attack
against either Singapore or the
Netherlands Indies-or both.
These reports are being seri-
ously considered by the American,
British and Dutch naval staffs.
Japan's strategic advantages are
being carefully analyzed, and it
may develop that in order to
avoid giving the japanese too
great military advantage, the
interested powers will be COM
PEELED to prevent by force any
further concentration of Japan
ese army and navy forces in
Indo-China before an attack on
Thailand is begun.
Nazis Are observers
According to information re-
ceived in Washington from de-
pendakie sources in the Far East
the japanese have about 125 900
troops actually landed and dis
tributed throughout Indo-China.
Some 10000 more are reported
to be on transports, either an
chored in Indo-Chinese harbors
or on the way to Indo-China.
This force is composed Of ia
pans best divisions, veterans Of
the Chinese war, picked guards
regiments from the islands, and
some of the Kwantung army
"toughs." They are well-equipped
with material necessary for war

Miss Harriet Elliott, In charge OF

sion, will help launch the first pro-
gram by appearing in person to
answer the questions. In the role
of consumers on this broadcast will
be Mrs. Max o. Lorenz, president
of the Voteless League of Women
Voters, and Mrs. Mordecai Ezekiel,
president of the Shoppers League.
Other programs during the series
will take up such subjects as What
a Housing Crisis Means to WASH

come Group" Graded Meat in the
District" More About Labelling,
Better School Lunches" What Is
a Fair Tax?" Household Workers
in Washington" and wages in the
District"
Sees Task Primarily as
One of Education.
Mrs. Lorenz explained that the
series of broadcastS is designed to
promote defense in its broadest
aspects by assisting in building up
a healthy, vital citizenry and one
aware of community problems. That
aim can only be achieved by educa-
ton about proper food, proper hous-
ing and proper health facilities, she
declared.
"We believe" she continued
"that men and women in each
community must start by dealing
with the problems in those COM
munities-many of them problems
which have been with us right along
but which for one reason or another
we have failed to solve. In this
emergency period it is even more
important that We keep'o on working
for the benefits that will keep all
men and women fit for every job
and ready for any emergency
Mrs. Ezekiel said that, ip addition.
the program is designed to help
prevent unnecessary sacrifices OF
social and economic gains.
There have been many improve
ments in housing" she said, "but
we can still find here in Washington
whole families living in single
room without sanitary conveniences
or proper heat. There is plenty to
cat IN the United States but in our
CAPITAL City there are still families
without enough milk and without
enough food.
People Themselves Form
First Line Of Defense.
"These serious problems still face
our community and become increas-
ingly important because the people
are the first line of defense"
Serving with Mrs. Lorenz and
Mrs. Ezekiel on the committee in
charge of the broadcasts are Mrs
Clarkson Hill of the Shoppers
League, and Mrs. John Graham, jr.
of the voteless league. A research
committee from both organizations
is assembling material.
