Hope Expressed If Movement Persists That It Will Be Made Clear Nip pon la Not In Mind. TOKIO. Japan, Jan. 15. (Special Cable.) American residents in Japan are anxious concerning the movement for military and naval expansion in America. Missionaries deplore as un warranted the tendency on the ground that it is unnecessary to be prepared for an indefinite enemy. They urge that the principle ot universal broth erhood, which is the basis of social and international Justice and lies at the foundation of the Declaration of In dependence, be made ground for a world-wide peace. These missionaries believe that steadfast and preserving adherence to moral principle not only is sufficient for national security, but is also a potent influence in the establishment of mutually beneficial relations. Business men, however, recognize the necessity of an adequate defense against a probable enemy and all Americans here hope in case a bill for an enlarged Army and Navy is passed that it will be made clear that it is not aimed at Japan as a possible enemy, and also that expansion does not mean an aggressive policy in the Far East, but that its sole purpose is defense.

RICHES ARE TEMPTATION Enemy, Says Naval Adviser, Conld Land 250,000 Men a Month and Present Army Would Be Powerless to Prevent. NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 15. Dan ger of foreign aggression will con front the United States after the European war is over, no matter which side wins, Hudson Maxim, member of the Naval Advisory Board, declared in an address before the Chamber of Commerce here tonignt. He made an appeal for a larger Army and Navy, declaring that any of the great foreign nations now at war would "have available several million war-tried veterans for a trial at arms with us." t ' "When the great war is ove'r, which ever side wins, there will be sure to arise between the winners and our selves serious complications to be ad justed," Mr. Maxim said. "Either Germany or England would have a navy far superior to our own and consequently could not successfully be opposed by our Navy.. Enemy Conld Land Big; Army. "Our enemy would be able to land upon our shores at least a quarter million men inside & month and after that continually bring reinforcements at the rate of 250,000 a month, if they should happen to be lequired. " Our little, poorly equipped Army would not be able to offer resistance enough to mak- ripple In the line of the enemy's advance. Our Army would be just about one good day's killing. "If the enemy landed at either New York or Boston." the speaker said, "they would be able in two weeks to capture the area in which the great arsenals. Navy-yards and munitions factories of the country are situated. : Preparation Is Insurance. Continuing he said: "There are two ways that are pro posed for our salvation. The way that our Army and Navy men propose, and the way that every American who has made a scientific study of the subject of National defense proposes, is to pre pare ourselves adequately with a Navy big enough to stand against any other navy in the world, and an Army to save the country from the horror of defeat. "Adeauate preparation! made in time of peace not only insures the safety of the country if war should come, but it equally insures against the coming of war. History has taught no surer lesson than that wealth and defense lessness form an enticement posted on the wall of every home for an avari cious enemy to break into."
