Democracies Are Seen
Hesitant 10 Apply
Sanctions 10 Japan
indications Are Found
In London That Toxic
Moy Still Get Oil
BY WILLIAM H. STONEMAN,
Foreign Correspondent of The Star and
Chicago Daily News.

Foreign Correspondent of The Star and
Chicago Daily News.
LONDON. July 29.-There was
genuine doubt in the minds of many
competent observers here today as to
the real determination of the de-
mocracies to apply the terrific eco
nomic sanctions which they de-
clared against Japan last Saturday.
Japans occupation of Indo-China,
It was pointed out. is now in full
swing and has actually gotten under
way since the United States, Great
Britain and the Netherlands Indies
announced the freezing of Japanese
credits. At the same time, it is
added. the two great democracies,
after broadCaSting their intention to
apply sanctions with full force if
Japan did not mend her ways, are
discussing the extent to which they

May Get Oil Licenses.
There are very definite indlCa-
tions, as matter of fact, that Japan

ued importation of oil, one of the
vital war products which had con-
tinued to go to Japan from the
United States and the Netherlands
Indies after her imports of alloy
metals and other key products had
been stopped in the interests of the
British and American defense pro-
grams.
A special correspondent of the
London Times this morning ac-
tuaIly ventures the opinion that
unless the japanese make it i'm
possible. it is likely that licenses will

United States TO enable a certain
amount of trade to continue"
american supplies of oil to
Japan he continues, may not be
reduced much Immediately and the
assurance of full backing would be
needed by the Netherlands Indies if
they were to refuse to supply, say
oil, to Japan.
Official circles decry such hints
that Britain and the United States
90 not really mean business. but
unofficial people still have their
doubts. Everybody remembers all
too well the fasco of 1885 when
the world demoCraCies threatened
Italy with comprehensive sanctions,
were duly and loudly accused Of
blufing by Mussolini and proceeded
TO prove him right by failing to go
through with the oil sanctions.
Public Must BE Convinced.
Everybody who knows anything
about that story knows that the
Italians continued to supply them
selves with oil at the British base
of Suez right straight through the
Ethiopian campaign.
The official story is that those

measures. principally the freezing

iCally cut japanese trade TO a frac-

and American governments to make
