from war by making the Jap
anese Emperor the Emperor of the
world, and saving humanity from
the evils of western civilization
by spreading Japanese Kultur, the
Japanese wurrior gods and Shinto
scholars have discovered another
divine mission Imposed on them
by Heaven. It is the salvation of
the colored races from the oppres
sion of the white man. This sal
valion is to be achieved by noth
ing less than the extermination
of the whole white race from the
face of the earth.
On that basis, Japan has ap
pointed herself the champion of
the colored races and has con
ducted a powerful and persistent
propaganda to rally them to her
standard, She holds before their
eyes the sins of western coloniza
tion: she tells them that the col
ored races constitute two-thirds
of the world's population but con
trol only one-tenth of the earth's
surface; and she impresses on
them that Japan is the only power
strong enough to beat the white
powers, as shown by me misso
Japanese war. In return for their
Bupport, she holds out to them
the prospect of being put under
the Imperial Japanese benevo
lence. Fierce Racial Pride
It Is the conceit of many white
nien that all the other races really
envy them and would like to be
accepted In their company, which
Js the cause of a certain con
descension In them sometimes
tinged with pangs of conscience
that they should feel that way.
But no racial consciousness of the
whites can possibly compare with
the fierce racial pride of tho Jap
anese, to whom the white man
has always been tho "red-haired
barbarian." Nor Is there anything
In the white man's mnke-up to
match the burning hatred of many
Jupaneso for the whole white
race. Bccuuse of long seclusion
and Inbred clanishness, the Jap
anese hove no love for any
strangers, Including those of their
own skin pigment. But It Is for
the white mun that they reserve
their most savage hymns of hate,
and they sing with Joy when white
men slaughter one another in re
current wars.
' There is no doubt that Japan's
swift rise to world power has
,done much to awaken Asia and
set it on the march toward self
determination and independence.
If Japanese propaganda were to
have substantial success it would
ttore up dynamite In the East
which could blast the world asun
der. But her appeal to color
prejudice has been Japan's great
est failure. For at a time when
the white colonial powers, lenrn-
