PAGE FIVE OP ONCE AND FOR ALL OF (Continued trom Pag One.) closed Japan seeka control of the whole of Chine to prevent It from falling prey to Soviet Russia and communism. The Japanese army, he said, in tends to occupy Nanking, the Chi nese capital. Matsuoka explained Ja pan's political and economic plans In north China had been delayed pending the clearing up of the 8hanghal situation, as a fundamen tal solution In the north was Impos sible until the Chinese troops were defeated and Nanking occupied. Eighty per cent of the Chinese economic and political leadership, he said, Is concentrated around Shang hai, while the coastal zone and north ern provinces constitute 00 per cent of China. "If the 10 per cent chooses to go communist, let It," Matsuoka said. "It Is better tor Japan to hold the 90 per cent than lose the whole of China and permit the country to go over to the Soviet. The greatest laim of Japan is to save China from communism and the Kuomtntang (the dominant nationalist political party)." The Japanese, he declared, were unable to achieve their alms In China by counter-propaganda and were forced, therefore, to employ their strongest weapon, namely, the army. Matsuoka asserted that every na tion rightfully used Its strongest weapons to combat Its opponents and the Japanese were unequal to others In propaganda and Intrigue. Asked If a strong anti-Kuomintang government at Nanking and an Inde pendent north China administration at Pelping were considered neces sary, Matsuoka replied the question was unanswerable academically. "Every Japanese hopes for a strong antt-Kuomlntang government to re place the Nanking government. Ja pan should act upon principles of benevolence and sacrifice In the up building of China. Without this Japan would be unable to solve the Chinese problem on which she has already spent 12,000,000,000 yen ($3, 600.000,000). Matsuoka said It would be better for the Japanese nation to perish than to fall to carry out Japan's highest precepts. "We have followed overly much the material lessons of the west.

Japanese are now determined not to allow communism and other Influ ences to turn China Into a weapon against Japan. "Europeans and Americans are ig norant of the realities of the Far East; Japanese are similarly Ignorant of the realities of western lands.' Communications Glorious War Petrified Peace. To the Editor: War Is progressive. Peace Is re actionary. War teaches a people to face reality. Peace instructs the ne gation of life. War at least, stands on Its own feet, and makes the teeth chatter with the solidity of Its argu ments. Peace softens the brains, muscles, and ends In decadency. Low ering the peace boom on a people Is contrary to natural law. It Is the useless chasing of the Impossible. War makes men out of women. War exalts the strong, and condemns the weak. War makes super-men out of bums. The periods of over abundance in this country can be traced directly to war. Peace, on the other hand, is wasteful, extravagant, and Its zealous advocates a misguid ed lot. Their fantastical schema pro poses control of the elements. Peace is a sit-down proposition, flanked with a porterhouse steak and all the rest. Who wouldn't be peaceful? Peace Is a dream, a poisonous one. Peace engenders a state of cerebral Intoxication similar to alcohol. The substitutions Jn this case are mirrors and powder-puffs. Peace Is a cute bug. . Its proper place Is some remote corner of a mu seum. Here it would be nice to look at, study and talk about. Against the machination of a 50-ton Christie tank, peace would be formidable as a marshmallow under the heel of a boot. War leads to glorification. Peace to petrification. War Is a lusty lout, peace Is cultured, and smells of roses Instead of garlic. When a nation sleeps with its head on a feather pillow, instead of the breech of a gun, they are ready for the yoke, Culture, statues and tradition are inspiring. They lead a nation down the corridors toward extinction. When we have learned this, we have learned something. Perhaps! G. L. BULLEN. 710 South Riverside. October 13, 1937.
