Bakers Ask Government
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, June 28.-The Amer

reason quite obviously no longer
exists.
1.-THE worldwide wheat harvest
indicates the possibility of surpluses,

laps, Seeking Trade,
Face Consequences Of
|ImperiaIistic Policies
BY ne Assoeiossd Press

TOKYO, June 2s.-The teach.
ings Of Japan's empire builders
have come back ct an evil hour
just as the nation Is trying to re.
build its war-shattered economy.
This is emphasized in q report
on food resources by Col. N. H.
vissering and r. Z. vickery OF the
Army's Once Of Food Administra-
ton. They have Just returned from
China and Southern Asia, where
the empire builders did their work.
The Investigators found two ma
jor barriers to reviving the ASatic
trade on which Japan must rely to
rebuild.
Hatred Il Factor. --
One is the hatred and fear Of
Japanese, born Of wartime Japanese
brutality. This Is most marked in
China and the Philippines.
Tho investigators say this sem
timent cannot be underestimated In
evaluating Japan's future chances
of getting food in trade from her
neighbors.
The other barrier is an intense
nationalism on the part OF Asiatic
countries" This was fostered BY
the Japanese conquerors themselves
in forming their so-called East
Asiatic co-prosperity sphere" But
the Japanese had intended to har.
ness this nationalism.
Self Sufficiency Sought.
The investigators report this ma.
tionalism is coupled with a de-
termination to achieve national
self-sufnciency."
"All countries visited" they added,
"are intensively planning to dupli-
cate the industries which Japan IL
counting on as basis for trade"
Another factor to be reckoned
with by the Japanese is "a growing
tendency on the part Of Asiatio
countries toward government-con-
trolled economics" That Is bound
to complicate trading.
Ironically, even this In part can
be laid to Japanese imperialism.
The japanese imperialists wanted
tight government control in the sub
jugated countries for the benefit Of
the imperiansts.
Textile Competition Created.
The investigators found other
chickens coming home to roost.
The Japanese planners empha-
sized cotton growing and textile
manufacturing in the conquered
countries, on which they drew
heavily irr goods and raw materials
to keep their war machine going.
Now, say the investigators, textile
spinning has received top priority
in most Southwest Asiatic countries.
with the collapse of the silk market
in the United States. Japan relies on
textiles as its chief export
That Is a great blow. With North
Korea and Manchura under Com
munist control, Japan must turn to
Southwest Asia. She must buy food
there to make up deficiencies and
she must sell her manufactured
goods there to finance the purchases.
