UNITED STATES MUST
RESPECT JAPANESE
"MONROE DOCTRINE" i
fn This Way War Which Would ,
'ge Unfortunate for Both j
Countries Can Be Avoided, '
Says Dr. Abbott
OTHER N E W VOLUMES i
ftit between me uimeu mines uiiu
Jtpatt would be suicidal for tlie Mlkntlo'a
country and utterly foolish for this nation,
this l ne opinion of Dr. Jntnes Francis
Abbott, of Washington University, St
Louis, and fr n "uml)Cr ot years nil
Instructor In the Imperial Japanese Naval
Acdemy. as expressed In his new book,
"Jipanesa Mxpanslon nnd American Poli
cies" (The Macmillan Company, New
Vork). But, while admitting Its futility
tna Improbability, ho warns us that It
5 Is not Impossible so lone as foolish preju
dices and hatred fostered by Unfounded
' mistrust continue.
Doctor Abbott ndopts the difficult
policy not of denying the validity of the
iriumtnts of those who fear Japan's In
tentions, but of piling up a greater array
of facts to prove that the considerations
recommending closl friendship hotween
the two countries far outweighs those
which are advanced by the "scare
nonjers." The chief arguments It, the author's
at collection of data are two one polit
ical, the other economic. , Jruian wishes
the' equivalent of a Monroe Doctrine for
the East. This Is all It asks. If the United
Slates supports Japan In this, war will be
nractlcally Impossible, And Japan can he
expected to guarantee the "open door" for
the United States In China. On the eco
nomic side, "the Intcrosts of America,
Japan and CliltiA are so diverse, nnd at the
same time so Interrelated, that If the three
nations can work In harmony, each will
profit vastly more than If each attempts
10 shape Its future Independently of, or In
conflict with the others." There 13 a com
munity of Interests between America nnd
Japan that Is threatened, not by each
other, but by the Kuropean powers.
Doctor Abbott points out why Japan
does not want tho Philippine Islands, and
why we must respect the similarity bo
tween her political position nnd that of
the United States. Tie omphnslzcs that wo
cannot hope for a better feeling between
these two nations until this country aban
dons the policy Inaugurated by Philander
C, Knox when he was Secretnry of Stnlo
In Taft's Cabinet.
Another and rather different point of
view Is contained In Carl Crow's "Japan
i and America." (Robert Mclirlde & Co.,
' New York.) Mr. Crow shows us Japan as
through the eyes of a permanent resident,
, untrammelcd by the delusions that the
5 country has tried to create. The book is
i an eye-opener In more ways than one way
j Instead of the Japan which we know nB
' having risen In 30 years from n feudal
' state and a less than mediaeval standard
jl of morals to a stage of equality with the
a other civilized nations, we see her In a
I far less rosy light.
& Possessed of less wealth than any of
j the great nations, sho has risen to fame
I j through a system of emperor worship and
"5 a more or less patient submission to ul-
most unbelievable social and industrial
if conditions. For the sake ot appearing
L(' 'great among nations she has Sacrificed in-
, dependence of thought to absolutism, nnd
n soundness of social structure to grca
armaments.
Her International policies, moreover, are
as shaky as her internnl conditions. Mr.
Crow makes plain In a very convincing
way by the use of Illustrations which
only a newspaper correspondent could pro
duce the utter perfidy of Japanese states
men. Iiroken piomlses, agreements that
were never meant to be kept, and repeated
denials of an intention to expand in the
face of such acts as the seizure of Tslng
lao, are typical of the double-dealing which

SfQtPI nnrl nni flint amp ctvnnttalnn i
ml . her part points toward a clash with our
country, war with tho I'nited States has
M become her chief aim,
i. Mr. Crow has shown rather conclusively
that although Japan's menace Is a real
one, still (he danger to us, as a nation, is
lessened by her disastrous internal conditions.

A new book by tho author of "The

world. Hugh Wnlpole certainly stands
high In tho ranks of British novelists, but
It would icqulre more than his latest vol
ume, "The Golden Scarecrow" (tieorge H.
Dor.tn Company, New York), to prove his
right to figure In such company. The book
Is merely n group of pictures, depicting tho
lives of a few children. There Is little. If
any, connection, nnd even the epilogue,
which might be expected to bring the
threads of the story Into some sort of
order, fnlls to contribute much to the rend
er's enlightenment. The author's style Is
always delightful, nnd his delicate and
natural portraitures of child life are
charming, but thnt is about the best and
the most that can be said ot tho book
I
"The Oakleyitcs" (George R Dot an Co
New York) Is a book that lias many things
to commend it. First nnd best of all, it Is
written by K. V. Benson, author ot
"Dodo" and member of n famous literary
family: second, Jt is decidedly In tin
author's best style; third, It Is truly
original In Its character portrayal. If not
In Its plot. The Idea of choosing a woman
almost of middle nge ns one's heroine may
not be entirely new, but It is dllllcult to
conceive of an author taking such a
chance who could achieve more of a suc
cess than Mr. Benson has attained. While
there Is abundant humor In the volume
nnd the lives of the strait-laced people
of 0 quaint and cotnentlou-lovlng town
are depicted In a delightfully whimsical
way. It Is the pathos that Is to be found
in the romance of the blg-souled heroine
that makes tho novel a notable one. "The
Oakleyltes" Is not merely a book worth
reading; It is one that is worth keeping
