JAPAN'S WAR AIMS
TJTAR Is no accident, nor docs
' military disaster come like a
bolt out of a blue sky. The war
in the Pacific had been brewing
ever since the last war came to
an end, and Pearl Harbor had long
been forecast by Port Arthur,
where the Japanese made a simi
lar sneak attack on the Russian
fleet in 1904. Despite this, and
despite Innumerable warnings
about the coming storm, both the
United States and Great Britain
were caught by surprise and suf
fered catastrophes which could be
nullified only by years of fighting
and heavy sacrifices in life and
treasure.
The causes for this wcro many,
but two stand out above nil others.
The first was the inability of the
peaceful, civilized, civilian, and
democratic mind, brought up on
a live-and-let-llve philosophy to
comprehend, or oven to accept as
credible, the cold-blooded, calcu
lating, and utterly, ruthless men
tality of men who dream In terms
of world conquest and count lives
as merely , so many pawns In a
game that used to bo the sport of
kings. Tho second was the com
placent sense of superiority, tra
ditional with the West toward the
East, which led to a fatal under
estimation of Japan's strength and
Japanese aggressiveness. Pearl
Harbor and the full of Singapore
nd the Philippines were the re
sult, It, la therefore of the utmost
Importance for every American to
know what Japan's war aims arc,
and how she plans to attain them.
The best sources of that knowl
edge are the Japanese themselves.
Like the Nazis, tho Japanese have
not been backward In declaring
themselves. Like tho Nazis, --Irioy,
too, pursued two lines an official
line advancing limited alms with
conciliatory gestures to contuse
and divide expected opposition so
that the intended victims could be
swallowed one by one, and a
propaganda line stating the true
aims.
A. Hundred Tear War
Theso true alms arc even moro
sweeping, more deeply ingruincd
in the Japanese national churuc
ter, and more fanatically pursued
than those of the Nazis. They
contemplate nothing less than a
"glorious Hundred Year War" for
the destruction of American and
European civilization and the ex
termination of the whole white
race, after which Imperial Japan
Will establish and enforce peace
on her own terms. It Is a project
which the Japiineso boast they
started in 1031, when they con
quered Manchuria as the first step
toward world dominion. Though
Oiey wore willing to co-operute
With the Nazis and the Fascists
in the first stages of this enter
prise, these, too, would later have
hud to bow to their will.
But let the Japanese speak for
themselves.
MTAPAN Is 'the foundation and
the axis of tho world. Tho
world must bo unilied around Ja
pan, Without unity there will be
no peaco. When the world Is uni
fied under one power, then there
will bo eternal peace. Japan is the
ruling nation of tho world."
Prof. T. Komakl, Kyoto Imperial
University, over Tokyo Radio,
Feb. 22-27, 1042.
The Empire of Nippon hoB
taken tho Initiative und assumed
tho role of herald of a reorganized
world. ... It Is quite conceivable
thut had Nippon not exposed the
incapacity and worthlossncss of
the League (of Nations), Germany
would hurdly have been able to
roarm herself, regain lost ground
and forge ahead on the world
stage to such a marked degree,
while Italy would scarcely have
been afforded us good an oppor
tunity to endeavor to re-estnbllsh
tho ancient Roman Empire as she
has In tho past few years." Shln
goro Tukuishl, chief of the Nlchi
Niclii organization, In Nippon To
day and Tomorrow, 1040.
Destroy America, and Britain
"There can bo no end to the
war until Britain and tho United
States arc brought to their knees.
Without the annihilation of Amer
ica there will bo no true greater
East Asia sphere. Therefore, the
enemy'B destruction must be car
ried out in a most dccfslvo mun
ner." Masuyuki Tunl, Foreign
Minister, in broadcast, Dec. 7,
1042.
"Jnpan Is firmly determined to
fight, in close collaboration with
Germany and Italy, even a Hun
dred Year War to crush the
United Slates and Great Britain."
Col. Hfdco Ohira, chief of Army
Press Section, at a Singapore vic
tory celebration, Feb. 14, ,1042.
"Our objective in thlsi war Is
not only to bring about the de
struction of the United States
and Britain, but also to spread
the New Order to the whole
world." Capt. Etsuzo Kurihara,
chief of Naval Press Section, Imr
perlal Headquarters, on Navy
Day, Muy 27, 1044.
"If Japan's constructive war
objective cannot be fulfilled in
our lime, It Is to be. carried for
ward to the next generation, and
If still it is not yet dono, it is to
be sent over to the succeeding
generations until final victory and
peaco is assured." Japanese-controlled
Bulavlu Rudlo, Dec, 5,
1043.
Peace Terms for America i
"Complete destruction of Amer
ican nuval power and maritime
trade; abolition of private bank
ing Institutions and trade unions;
restriction of American steel and
oil production; destruction of all
shipyards except those building
river and coastal vessels; crca-.
tion'of a political authority, free
from 'influences wielded by eco
nomic Interests' and modeled
after the 'pure sovereignty of Ja
pan,' to maintain strict- surveil
lance over the United States, for
10 or more yenrs, or perhaps in
definitely." Japan, o so. poace
terms drawn up by two experts,
Rear Admiral Tanetsugu and
Yasal Nishiya, and wirelessed by
Dome!, official Japanese news
agency, to the United States, May
23, 1044.
"I am looking forward to dic
tating peaco to tho United States
in the While House at Washing
ton." Adinl. Isoroku Yamamoto,
Commander In Chief of the Jap
anese Navy, In letter duted Jan
21, 1041.

of which brought forth a storm
of abuse in French, heaped on the
head of the future ruler of Japan.
"Kinii," he appealed to one of
his aides, "I didn't expect so i
much conversation. Sli-e seemed
to have her back up." So to .his
large and halo. lady, whomsoever
shu. muy have louun, went the
privilege of scolding thj "son of
Heaven" for the first time in
moro than a tliuusand years, .
Once while driving through
Paris in an official parade, Hiro
hito exchanged coats with one of
his aides, told him to look stiff
and tincommforlahlc, and slipped
out of thj ear to explore Paris.
The prn-'cssiim went. on,, the
crowd applauding i.Iip uniformed
figure who sat bull upright, an
rfleetive substitute fur the iirince
icifrnl of Japan.
These ai. snme of Ihe tilings
w hich had led many inissionul it.s
and slab' department officials to
the conclusion that llirobito is
hheial ami moderate. Unuties-
! iloiubly he is mine moderate
than the military men around
him; perhaps also it is true that
i he was opposed to Hie war.
However. Hirohlto has now' be
come so much the tool of the
militarists, so indelibly stamped
witli the mark of fascist ,MiHiiest,
tha . it will be extremely difficult
to build a new and democratic
Japan with bun in the saddle.
Soil),.- of the factors on the oilier
side of the balance sheet will be
discussed in a lutiire column.
