The arrival of Jan&n'fi snwiAl an- VOy. Saburo Kurusu, means that the long drawn-out diplomatic conversa tions between Janan and the TlnifoH States have entered a decisive state. Relations between the United States and Japan have been critical since the Japanese invaded Manchuria ten years ago and have now reached the stage where war can be avoided, apparently, only by substantial con cessions from Japan. Not many ex perts believe that the Japanese are ready to give up their ambitious pro gram in the Far East. The situation in the Far East is complicated by commitments by the L-mtea mates am JaDan in rplatmn to. the struggle in Europe. The po sition ol this country is clear and un mistakable inasmuch as we are de- iinueiy pledged to the defeat of rjitler. The Japanese, who signed a treaty of alliance with Germany and Italy have insisted that the pact was pure ly defensive and that Japan is free to pursue an independent policy. It has been revealed recently in Tokyo that at the time of the signing of the Triple Alliance there was a verbal proviso, explicitly accepted by Ger many, that nothing in the pact obli gated Japan to go to war in the Pa cific except bv her own decision. JThe British Prime .Minister has made the position of his country clear, asserting that if our effort to maintain peace fail in the Pacific and we become involved in war with Japan, "a British declarati nn will follow within the hour." This public notice advises . nnnn very definitely that she cannot expect an isolated war with the United I UFDTMDn - . - .

In ad dition, the" Dutch the Chinese and the Russians will not be idle, It is impossible to predict the out come of the conversations in Wash ington. The effect of economic sanctions upon Japan is so serious that the Empire cannot afford to ner- mit the situation to continue.

Public Against Lewis. The eleven-man Nat Mediation Board, which decided against John L. Lewis oh the closed shop issue of the captive mines, had two C. I. O. members and two A. F. L. members. The position of the A. F. L. mem bers was very amusing. They were in a situation which compelled them to vote against strengthening the po sition of a labor union. They voted against giving Lewis a closed-shop, because to give him a closed-shop was to give him part of their membership. The two C. I. 0. members were the only ones to side with Tx.ia This shows how unpopular Mr. Lewis' position is especially when it is true that the Mediation Roard usually leans toward, labor. It appears that now our national labor policy is catching up with the sentiment of the people of the United States to put national defense first. Neither labor unions nor management should be allowed to strengthen their position durine a nat,i ffency when it is so vitally important to the securitv of nn, j freedom that the wheels of industry neep roiling.

Japan, the ally of Germany and Italy, be lieves that the tntai;to,-o will be victors in the European fight w,lac4ueiiuy, ioKyo is anxious to cash in on the opportunity. The United States, on the other hand, is Pledged to do whatever is necessary to defeat HitW onW v-unocqueiiLiy, is tired of Japan's "nuisance" tactics in the Pacific and ready fr a show- uiiwn, With the United States Navy oper ating on "shont ii . uruers in . auwiuc, tnis country is, no doubt, giving valuable .assistance to the British in the Battle of the Atlantic. For this type of work, cruisers, de stroyers and lighter warships are used, together with airplanes, but in the Pacific, where the Japanese r yVlnTerbattlMhiPs are "ady to fight, the United States must main tain its powerful battle fleet. The situation in the Pacific has been somewhat improved by the de cision of Great Britain to provide a powerful naval force of heavy ships for service in the Pacific, if needed.

Despite T7 ., j " , " peace, lne United States has taken a stand which leaves the question of peace or war entirely up to Germany or Japan.
