If, however, in compliance with
the Axis Treaty, Japan goes so far
as to declare war against the United
States in- the Pacific, there is a dis
tinct possibility that offensive action
against Japan will be initiated In
our opinion, it is doubtful that Japan
will declare war upon the United
States and if Germany and Italy
provike a clash by attacking us,
Tokyo will likely avoid engagements
under the Axis by her
Axis partners the aggressors.
