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. The

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!

to replace the present bounty system,
for the eradication of coyotes, bob
cats and other creatures of the forest
