They al ready HOLD the other ap proaches. In Tokyo, a government spokesman warns Australia to yield without a fight or "suffer the same fate that has befallen Singapore and Java." He adds: "They (the Australians) should see the handwriting on the wall." London "authoritative quar ters" assert that the strength of the Jap main fleet has not been impaired by Japan's "far-flung sweeps of conquest" and adds that Japan can now be expected to lash out in three directions to CEYLON (westward CLEAR ACROSS the Bay of Bengal), to Australia, and EVEN FAR THER EAST toward the Fiji islands.

Take a look at the empire Japan has already overrun- coastal China, French Indo china, Thailand, Malaya, lower Burma, the East Indies, the Philippines (all but Bataan), Recall the SPEED and EASE with which she has accomplish ed all this. Then look at Australia, with only seven million inhabitants, industrially weak and FAR RE MOVED from American . and British help. Look at India ripe, internal ly rotten and ready for pluck ing by a strong and bold hand. Remember that India has been the ultimate goal of all world conquerors since Alexander. TTHEN take another look at Japan ruled by an Insanely ambitious military clique that for 20 years has been preparing for the conquest of ALL ASIA. Remember that since history began conquest has roused hun ger for MORE CONQUEST. Recall that as long as a year ago Japan announced to the world her Intention to take over the whole South Pacific and we laughed, and said: "Oh, yeah?" THEN ask yourself this ques tion: IS IT SAFE to believe that Japan will settle down quietly ; to exploitation and development of the area she has already eized? rviu w mm your eyes nome- ' ward.
