the far more Constantine BROWN
serious threat to our own security
from across the Pacific.
In the days preceding the at
tack on Pearl Harbor, our efforts
were directed exclusively toward
strengthening the nations which
were first, threatened and later
attacked by the Nazis. Despite
very clear indications from the
Far East that Japan was on the
rampage and that we were her
main target, little was done to
prepare to meet such an attack.
There was a strong feet. it was
true, at Pearl Harbor, but the
Government took no steps to pro-
vide it with the necessary cover IN
the event of aggression.
Neither Guam nor the Philip
pines were strengthened to resist
Japanese invasion. We believed,
or were led to believe then. that
the Japanese would not dare face
the great potential power OF the
United States.
Warnings Were Ignored.
Reports from Tokyo-as well as
from British, French and Dutch
possessions in the Pact1c-that
the Tokyo warlords were prepar-
ing an attack against the United
States were ignored as unduly
alarmist. TOTO and his associates.
it was said then. were rattling
their sabers but did not enter
tain any real thought of aggres-
sion against any American terri
tory.
Considering the advances made
by science in modern warfare,
we are doing about as little in the
Pacific area today as we did in
the years preceding Pearl Harbor
We are told that between two
and four Soviet paratroop divi-
sions are located in Siberia, within
easy striking distance of Alaska.
Yet, lack of funds for housing
prevents the Pentagon from send
ing an adequate number Of troops
to that area to forestall a possible
paratroop operation.
The Russians have taken pos
session of most of China through
their Chinese Communist puppets.
Thus any threats to the Soviet
fanks have been definitely re-
moved. The same stooges now are
preparing to invade. Formosa.
