JAPAN AND AMERICA.
WAR ‘ TNOONCELVABLE
United Press Association— Copyright TOKIO. March 13.
Baron Kcmuva, Japanese Minister ox Foreign Affairs, in a message to the “New York World,” . says he is. convinced that nothing in the relations between Japan and America, need eaiise real uneasiness. Their Ear Eastern interests are not inconsistent or antagonistic. War was inconceivable, and would be a crime without- excuse or palliation. “My conviction,” he states, “finds, ample support in the understanding reached in 190-8.” The “New York Herald,” commenting on Mr. Slcliieff’s explanation that lie did 1 not mean war, but a struggle for commercial opportunities in China, states that in any case the speech was singularly ill-timed. All nations were co-operating to solidify peace. Japan’s offence was apparently not so. much that of conspiring to keep China in vassalage as in herself failing to remain in vassalage to the money-lend-ers.
