Vital Lesson
For i. ). Seen
In Jap Crisis
New Deal Policies
Compared With Nippon
Social Planners
BY LEWIS HANEY

Professor Of Economics n. y. University
In the attitude Of our govern
ment toward Japan, there Is a
good story. if only we could take
time out TO see all aspects OF
our policies.
Our administration, which has
stood for new and revolutionary
policies at home, is now iectur-
ing Japan on the "inviolabillty'
of various long-established
rights. The same administration
which cringes before organized
labor demanding the closed
shop stands immovable for our
sovereign rights in the Pacific.
IL is no wonder that the Japs
have some difficulty in under
standing us and in believing
thatWe mean what we say.
My point is that there is a
vitality important lesson for us
in the contrasts which appear in
the situation II is situation
which, we may hope. will work
out 10 the beiterment OF our
internal conditions by bringing
more consistency and greater
unity.

And again looking to the future
in A more serious vein. Mr.. Dodge
deplored that too many Ameri-
cans. from factory workers to
business tycoons. are going TO be
rudely awakened when they re-
aiize how much income tax they'll
owe the government on that fatal
March Is.
"We're all going TO feel It,"
he said, land I mean from the
top right down."
A banker friends or mine In
n neighboring state was telling
me just the other day that al
though he's making $4,000 per
year, after paying his federal
and state income taxes and pro-
viding for his insurance pre-
miums, he'll have just $4,000
left to live on" Dodge said.

TO allow any interference there

There is also demand that
Japan lake no step that would

Thus we require uninterrupted

we tell Japan that we cannot
tolerate any expansion that

Similarly, we cling TO our
