London, January 18. Mr. Samuel McClure's "Yellow Peril" article has produced :wo letters to the Times from Mr. J. O. P. Bland and Sir H. H. Johnston, respectively.

Mr. Bland emphasises the fallaciousness of the idea of Asiatic solidarity which, he says typifies the generalisation common among those applying theories in facts of which they have not full experi- fence. Mr. Bland says that "the ferment in the Oriental world much of it due to Western inspiration) is serions and undeniable. but it equally undeniable that, in China and Kotes to-day, the Anglo Saxon is less feared than the Japanese, and that only "Pax Britannica" preserves India from fierce, internecine strife.”

Johnston declares that many publicists and statesmen in the United States and Great Britain unreasonably urge not only The Washington correspondent of the New York Times confirms the exclusion of the Japanese from Americs and from Australasia the report that, immediately after his inauguration as President,hot also the prevention of Japan's very natural exploitation of Senator Harding will invite the Powers to a conference on the re- Eastern Asia. Sir H. H. Johnston attributes the unfortunate com- striction of armaments and the establishment of an international petition in naval armameurs to this cause, whence, he says some tribunal for judicial settlement of international disputes.
