Rumor, raining weight like snowball rolling downhill, to tho offoct that
the United States was peeling off its coat preparatory to making an
etsault on the Empire of the Rising San, was responsible for the visit of
Ambassador Joseph C Grew to the Japanese Foreign Office recently.
The storm began rhen a Japanese newspaper saw m sinister motive in the
taking of pictares in Tokio by the branch of the National City Bank of
New York. These pictures, said the junker sheet, wore intended for use
by the United States military authorities. Other papers took np the cry.
and very soon the Japanese people wore being regaled with sensational
Stories of the activities of "Americas spies' in the Island Empire.
ironically enough, the pictures that caused all the furore were intended
or promotion matter, illustrating business and industrial develop
ment in the Far East in fact to boost Japan 'commercially. When
Ambassador Grew called upon Foreign Minister Yasuyn Uckida and
requested that the Japanese Government issue n statement repudiating
the charges of the press, be was informed that the newspaper accounts
were unfair, baseless and due to the everseal of the younger officers
of the gendarmerie. But Japanese officials naively confessed that they
Were "finding it difficult to get the press to print a true version of the
matter. All of which does not help American business in Japan, for,
despite official denials, the junker press persist in its fantastic charges
and is calling for a boycott of American banks.
