Pacifist Declares Japanese Menace In Manchuria Not Believed Serious "IL is doubtful whether the Japa nese will ever be much of a menace in Manchuria because of the unfa vorable climatic conditions there which will make it impossible for them to colonize the territory," Wil liam C. Allen, who lectured on "In ternational Peace" in the Little The atre Saturday night, stated in an in terview later. Mr. Allen has traveled in almost every country of the world in the past twenty-five years and is now lecturing in the interests of an International Pacifist's Foundation. "Japan has made some advances toward colonization of .the northern part of Australia which has a climate comparable to their own," Mr. Allen continued. "However, the Australians are not concerned deeply over this situation yet because of climatic and racial conditions' which are hostile to the Japanese people." In discussing political relations of Japan and United States, Mr. Allen was of the opinion that the main trouble was caused by the' restriction of Japanese from immigrating to this country. Other than this; the United . States and Japan arc on friendly terms, he believes. "I just received a letter from a friend of mine in Sidney, Australia, two days ago," Mr. Allen said during Proposal Will Increase Importance of B. A. .

When asked what the English people thought of tlfe American's use of their native tongue, he replied, "Oh, they think that because this is a new country, the people don't know any better and they let it go at that."
