FORMER AMBASSADOR SPEAKS HIS MIND.

THE LIMITATION OF NAVAL ARMAMENTS.

If the juliaring article written especially for the United Press Associativas Mr! Masonze Hanthara, leading Japoncu diplomat and one time ambassador in Washington, discusses frankly Japan's aspirations in the forthcoming Five Power Naval Conference which is to assemble in London late in January. It is noteworthy that Mr. Hanihara stresses Japan's friendship for the United States, while stating with equal frankues, the fact the Japanese people have not forgotten the so-called "Anti-Japanese clause" of the American, immigration law.

It is no secret that the American immigration issue is not a closeif one in Japan, and that Japanese will not consider it closed until their emigrants are placed on some sort of a quotu basis.

know that it was in no way due to hostile intention of the American people against their time-honoured friend. Besides war will not settle the question involved.

Relative size and strength of respective navies should be regulat ed on the fundamental principle of "sufficient to insure its OWL national safety, but causing no mennee to that of others," which Japan. believes to be the only just and reasonable standard of effect- ing nával limitation. Self-preser vation is the first right and duty of every nation. No nation can long live in peace and happiness without feeling of national scearity and Every nation should be allowed to provide reasonable means for its defence according to the circumstances in which, it is placed and at the same time it should refrain from building #rnaments which is a likely cause for mennce to the ease and repose of others.

Reasonable Ratio,

Japan demands to possess a navy

As stated before, Japan does not which would neither give menace to even dream of having a navy equal others nor invite menace from or near equal in strength to that others. This inevitably brings up of either the United States or the question of naval ratio. Japan Great Britain. She will be satis never has asked parity either with fied with a reasonable ratio which the United States or Great Britain, I will give her a sense of security, but is content with much lower but will cause no menace to other strength than either of the two, for Powers.

ever.

All what she demands is to have a strength reasonably sufficient to give her a sense of self-assurance in time of emergency which may aise from causes she is in no way responsible for.

Sober consideration of these facts and circumstances encourage us to hope that the American public will see justice in allowing a reasonable ratio to Japan in the matter of. naval equipment. It is always casier and more effective for the stronger to yield if the great com- mon end is to be served by mutual agreement than for the weaker to do so. It is not for a layman to volunteer an opinion as to what may be a reasonable and proper radio for Japan to be given.
