WASHINGTON, D. C., May 31.—Washington officials have awakened with a shock to the realization that Japan is about to spring her trump card in the great game she has been playing for many years with the United States and | the other powers for the heaviest stakes in her history. | Supremacy in the Pacific, absolute control of China and |the opening of the doors of Uncle Sam’s Pacific Coast to the full flood of Japanese immigration—these are the rich poses for which Nippon now seems willing to play her highest | card. | All this is shown by the determined effort of the mikado’s anese exclusion clause in the pending immigration bill. | The approval by the senate of a change in the immigra- | tion bill by striking out the clause providing for the exclusion of Japanese laborers from this country indicates the mikado’s | government has won the first move in its maneuvering for |a greater share of world power. | It has imposed its will upon the United States. If such a clause were written into the measure, it would | give the force of law to the “gentlemen's agreement” under \which immigration from Japan to this country has been held ia n. | Japan Imposes Its Will Upon U. S. as First | Move in Striking for Share of World Power ° The pressure exerted upon the Wilson administration |iust at this time shows plainly, say those in close touch with | diplomatic affairs, that Japan considers the moment ripe to jmove for the realization of her three dearest national ambi- | tions—the closing of the “open door” to China, the opening of the closed door to the United States and the control of jthe Pacific ocean highways. Japan now holds a strategic advantage in the Pacifc, which she did not possess before the war The German archipelagoes, taken by the Japanese before the hurrying Australian fleet could forestall them, dominate Uncle Sam's ocean road to his own possessions in the Eastern seas With Japanese these newly captured islands in the hands of the this country is almost helpless to hold the Philip- pines in the event of hostilities.
