been framed at the dictates of blood-red imperialists, and, I think I am correct in my estimation of the Indian people, when I say that if there is one thing more than another which gets their gall it is imperialism in any of its forms. Certainly Indian sympathy in this dispute is all for China and we who had always in the past looked upon the Japanese" with friendship, respect and admiration, are now beginning to revise our oplatons," he said.
ECONOMIC SIEGE
Asked whether. In the face of the already growing economic" troubles, Japan would be able to earry on the war for any length of time in the event of sanctions being up- plied against her by the League or a general world-wide economie blockade, our informant said:
"I am not so certain that such a step would produce the deatred effect, because it would act as a poweriul moral force in the hands of the avaricious militarists by means of which they could appeal to the patriotism of every son and daughter of Japan, and, when it come to that, as we all know, they are patriotic to the point of fana- ticism.
POLICY IN CHINA-
"What you must remember is this: as the result of a prolonged 'propagandist campaign in Press and Pulpit the Japanese nation has been made to belleve, and be- lieve implicitly that their China policy is absolutely essential for the very existence of Japan. If that is the way they feel about it, then the application of an economic blockade would at once give them the Impression that the whole world was out to kill Japan, and, you can depend upon it, that is exactly how it will be interpreted to the masses by the military clique. Thus, the country would unite as they петег would have done otherwise, in order to defeat the siege, They also have Italy's example during the Abys sinian crisis to follow.
For these reasons. I personally, do not think world action on the knes contemplated would be judicious. It would be better to chance the outbreak of internal
dissension.".
A European passenger said that from all he could gather a violent anti-British sentiment was slowly beginning to sweep the country.
"The truth is they have never forgiven us for not renewing the Anglo-Japanese alliance," he said.
FRUGALITY AND TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT
Hong Kong Students Relief Association
In view of the urgent need for fands by the International Young M.C.A. Emergency Reller Council for the relief of the war-wounded in China, the Hong Kong Students Relief Association held a Frugality and Temperance Movement during the last three days.
The movement was very success- ful and a total of $4,437,57 was raised.
The Association will hold · a special meeting at the Y.M.C.A. Kowloon on Oct. 13 at 7p.. at which representatives, from Kow- loon Schools will be asked to at- tend to discuss the possibility of ganising a branch in Kowloon,

The Chinese may not te notable warriors after. centuries of trala- ng in the art of passive resistance, but the Japanese are apparently doing something that even China's great unifer, Chiang Kai-shek had not fully accomplished. They are annealing the Chinese nation into an unpredictable mass.
