Japan Is not only the most
formidable enemy of America
but Of the British Empire as
well, and that it would be
wise on the part of England
and the United States to
recognize the immediate men,

to stop the victorious march
of the Japanese without fur
Their hesitation and equivOca-
ton.
It is doubtless inconceivable
that the Japanese should over
run Australia and invade
America.
But six months ago IL was
equally uncomfortable that the
Japanese would capture Hong
kong, Malaga, Singapore,
Wake, Guam and the Philip
pines, BOrneO and Burma.
Inconceivable things are

conceivable thing of all Is our
blindness to their menace.

in the direction of destroying
or demoralizing this British
Empire?
Germany has bombarded
many cities of England from
the air.
She has destroyed numer-
Gus docks and industrial
plants.
She has demolished many
public buildings and many
private buildings, killing many
innocent victims as well rs
armed cOmbatants.
She has driven the English
armies out of Europe and
they have, in large part, re-
tired to the successful pro-
lection of their own home
lands.
But Germany has inflicted
no decisive disaster upon
England or any part of the
British Empire, and she has
taken possession of no impor.
tant part of English territory
Nor has she, presumably
occupied any foot of British
imperial dOminiOns. Nor is
she likely to do so, although
the German-British war has
been in progress two years.

In another month the Jap
