UNEXPECTED MAY HAPPEN
In the opinion of this writer, if the Japanese militarists compel their government to present de- mands which could only be mat by, China surrendering the sover- eign status that she has possessed throughout her long history, the unexpected may 'happen.

as already mentioned, the impos- sible occurred in connection with the fighting round Shanghai in 1932. When the Japanese land and sea forces withdrew-without accomplishing much beyond wan- ton destruction and carnage-they certainly did not take with them the honours of the undeclared war. Their vaunted invinc'bility had been proved to be a figment of the Imagination. Naturally it is to be hoped that the Japanese

Apart from this consideration." what could Japan do after she had occupied coastwise and riverwise eltics? If she sent expeditions Into the Interior from the North and from Hankow and other points she would be running a great risk.' The foundations of "Manchukuo" are by no means firm and, as the recent rebellion In Jehal showed. there is little affection felt for the Japanese in the occupied territory, It would hardly be safe to withdraw too many troops even from Korea. Japan's lines of communication, would become ever more vulnerable the further she advanced.
·WHAT OF RUSSIA? Moreover it is hardly likely that the Soviet Union would remain an Indifferent cnlooker. In spite of the allegation that relations be- tween the Soviet Union and Japan have greatly Improved since the sale of the Chinese Eastern Rail- way. there, has been a succession of torder incidents which have re- sulted in both Japanese and Russians being killed. The nego- tiations which have followed these" incidents have indicated that there is ill-feeting on both sides. The sale of the railway did not lead to the withdrawal of a single Russian soldier from the "Man- chukuo" frontler. In the event of Japan having to embark on any large scale operations in China. she no doubt thinks that preoc- cupation in the West will deter the Soviet Union from any activity in the East, She may be wrong. Japan has been able in the past to take advantage of the pre- occupation of others, but it la quite within the bounds of pos- atbility, if she is pre-occupied in China, that she may be treated to" a dose of her own medicine..
The policy of the Chinese would undoubtedly be to avoid majorʻen- gagements; to lure the enemy farther and farther from Its bases, and to trust to time. Even the greatest soldier of all time found himself powerless when he had brought his army to Moscow. The horrors of the retreat from Mos- cow should be a warning against' the folly of attempting to subju- gate a country of continental dimension.

The foregoing, as mentioned above, was written nearly two years ago and the writer feels that the viewa then expressed have survived the test to which they were put by the fighting in China since July. An opportunity has been given to the whole world to watch the Japanese military machine in actión and form an opinion of its efficiency--or other- wise. Foreign milltary observers at Shanghai, without exception, de- clare that. opposed by 1 numerically equal army similarly mechanized. the Japanese army would speedily be crumpled up. This opinion is based partly upon the mistakes that have been made by the High Command both of the army and navy. Many of the blunders which were made in 1932 were repeated. There was
