Kicht here in our own United States, where we have so far
been able to sit back and watch the Japanese war in China without

uathsl ' ' -
Last week we received a pamphlet and an entire booklet show
ing just how Japan has been mistreated and forced into a war, al
though it loves neace dearly, and wants nothing so much as a chance
to sit at ease on its own front porch. Baloney!
' listen to this, "(Hiinese militarism, backed by Communist Im
perialism, struck at Japan. Japan for self-preservation struck back."
' How many of you knew that beforef 1 ' ' ' S
' ,-And this, "When the Eussian Colossus refused to heed the
warning; Japan fought him, and drove him out of Manchuria, and
gave'tb country back to Chtslu" We heard quite a bit about Ja
pan taking Manchuria, but nothing ever came to our ears about its
on says in regards to post-war operations in Manchuria (which had
"then been given back to the Chinese, remember), "China intrigued.

"Chinese Militarism end Communist Imperialism have joined
forces to make war on Japan.'? It Is very true that China and us-
! sia are friendly. Eussia is the country which is most endangered
by Japan's present military-policy, and is, therefore, the coun
which is willing to openly help China.
' However, the Japanese. warloads realize the hatred felt by A
mericans for that little word "Communism" and are playing on it
to gain our sympathy, nothing is said about Japanese Fascism and
its alliance with other Fascist countries. You can't expect it. , This
is propaganda. .' i '' - s
. There is every reason to believe, barring governmental action on
our part, Japanese propaganda will become stronger and more mis
leading in order to sway us. But remember that we are a -.peace
" loving nation, able to keep our minds as well as our ears open, and
that we know that should we visit Japan and discuss militarism
"with the p0o citizens who are burdened down under the load of
policy of constant, warfare we would iind them puzzled at the ac
tions of their own dictatorial government and desirous of nothing
so much as the peace which their warlords are afraid to let them

the government, o somebody is going to do for them next year to
get them back their feet, there are others who are on their feet

and said, "You know, I haven't very much money in my pocket now,

for us, to jsjnswer, ; but I .believe
that it is a mistake to " assume
that all the facts and processes
of the Bdigious life must,: come
into conscious recognition. The
most beautiful flowers are often
hidden high in the mountains, or
deep in the gorges. So "rest" may
be, and often is the posession of
the soul which mind does not
consider. Best is not obtained by
directly seeking it, but rather by
doing our '.duty; by keeping up
that trusting which finds its best
expression in obedience; by living
for Christ; by growing in his like
ness. This will be evidence enough
that we have reached the soul-rest
