bas rendered some assistance in keeping trading routes open, it bea naturally not been able to go: far afield. Nevertheless, in spite of this fact, we believe the Japan- ese view is a sound one. It would be absurd for Japan to allow herself to be swayed by senti mental considerations in the matter. Patting ourself in ber place, it must be acknowledged That Japan is but remotely con- cerned in the struggle in Europe and that whichever side wins she is not likely to receive sny.damage as a result. If it be taken that. Japan looke to the defeat of Germany, then this attitude is a compliment to Grest Britain, since it implies that Japan fully trusts in her power to end the war successfully. Japan has not been approached in the matter by the Allies, nor do we believe that she will be, but if the suggestion were ever to take practical form, presumably some feelers would be thrown out to discover Japan's attitude before making a definite proposal. The conclusion drawn, if the present feeling prevails, would knook the matter on the head at once.
