Observer Analyses Situation London, Jan. 15.
"The most formidable and most dangerous fact in the world to- day," says The Observer in a leader, "Is the weight of Japanese power concentrated upon the consolida- tion of Japanese authority on the mainland from Korea to the Great Wall."
"It is indeed impossible for realistic minds to feel the convic- tion that the Japanese objective will continue to be bounded by the Wall.
"Chang Hsuch-liang is marked down in the Japanese plan for total elimination as a factor in North China, and if he organises his headquarters in Peking the Japanese forces will undoubtedly drive at Peking.
"There is little doubt that the opportunity WIN deliberately
chosen, as Tokyo is aware that Britain, Russia, the United States and Germany are incapable of ra- sistence.
"So far as Manchuria proper la concerned undoubtedly Japan has been the victim of grave injustice, and behaved with commendable. patience for many years; and pro- per diplomatic methods did not leld her the antisfaction that was due her.
"A chaotic China and the lack of a Chinese Government com- petent to protect Japanese In- terests, or even to keep arder tu Manchuria, finally exasperated Japan into direct remedial action. but Japan exceeded her initial aim or desire and turned a reasonable cause Into one that may, if further prosecuted, draw upon her tho con- centrated condemnation of the whole world
"There is nothing to be done ex- cept to recognise that Japan can | do what she will, and to concen- trate upon an attempt to dissuade.
