Japan has coveted five of China's CHATER ROAD Northern provinces and that her present actions are designed for the specific purpose of wresting | these from Chinese control. Again, if this does not represent territorial designs at the pense of China, words mean nothing. Following these offi- cial declarations, we have Prince Konoye, the Prime Minister, telling the Diet that Japan's only object in sending troops into China is to preserve the peace of the Far East. At the very moment he

Thus is "peace" preserv ed in the Far East! Backing up the other official spokesmen, the War Minister and the For- eign Minister both sought to blame the present crisis on anti- Japanese movements in China. The point which is always avoid-| ed in this connection is that if there

is any marked anti- Japanese sentiment in China, it is precisely of Japan's own making. All effects have causes, and the cause of China's ill-fecl-; ing towards Japan is to be found in the bollicosity of Japan's leaders, whose one aim is to dis- member China. The tragedy of the situation is that China, which has shown a measure of
