our ally, partly Japan's ally, to act
as an intemediator to secure the
release of our men!
Russia may already have been
asked.
Russia might be the logical
country to conduct negotiations with
Japan on our behalf simply because
she is under treaty Of peace and
friendship with Hirohito.
Surely Stain would agree to
such a common sense plan IN return
for our great help to him.
But whether Russia has been
asked or is going to be asked, Con-
grcss and the country at large must
call for a plan that shall implement
instant action to get every American
in Japan back home.
The administration should also
stop coddlmg the japanese over here.
The proposition, made the other
day, to allow them to 90 back to their
cities and towns on the Pacific Coast
and resume their normal activities,
in view Of what we know now, is little
short of monStrous.
For two years our state depart
mcnt has apparently merely re
qucstcd and protested.
It is evident that it NEVER
HAD ANY KIND or PLAN to stop
these hidcous crimes against our
American soldiers in Japan.
IF they had had a plan, they
would surely have gotten some re-
suits pN inns time,
If the state department had had
no plan it should have reported It's
absence TO the American public
which has right to know what It's
servants are doug-or are NOT
doing.

nothing but request and pro
