An UItimatum

japanese on November 26. 194l. was
not an ultimatum, although the
japanese construed it as such. Hull's
letter die little to fill some of the
gaps left by the army's report on
the days preceding Pearl Harbor.
The 10 points included proposals
that Japan join with the U. S..
China and other Pacific powers in
non-aggression pact; that she
quit the war with China and with
draw her forces from IndO-China
and that she Join with the U. S. in
abolishing eXtraterritorial rights in
China
Hull traced the major develop
mentS Of the final diplomatic ac-
tons prior to Pearl Harbor.
On November 20. 1941. he said,
the Japanese presented him a pro-
pOsal which the United States
found unacceptable. Hull said it
contained no provision of Japan's
reversion to peaceful ways and no
guarantee that Japan would not
continue aggression in areas south
Of IndO-China such as China and
Russia
The Japanese envOyS in Wash
ingtOn pressed Hull for an answer
while the serious possibilities of
the situation" were discussed by
high civilian and military officials.
10-POINT PROPOSAL
Hull'S letter said he delivered the
l0-point proposal knowing that all
hope of an agreement with the
Japanese had practically vanished
and believing that, in event of a
Japanese attack, the American peo-
pie would want to know what this
government had been willing to dis
Cuss with Japan as a basis for
peace in the Orient.
After reviewing some sections of
the American proposal, Hull told
StimSOn:
1T will thus be seen that the
document under reference did not
constitute in any sense an ulti-
matum" He added that it reiter-
ated long standing American prin-
Ciplcs and practical applications
suggested in the mOnths-lOng U. s.
Japanese negotiations.
