For reasons of their own, they are picturing the Aus- tralian cruise and enthusiastic reception of our men down there as the first move toward an anti-Asiatic league Great Britain’s Singapore naval base project is being linked up with the Australian do- ings, and throughout the Far East they are preaching “the white peril. The Japanese press, almost without ex- ception, pretends to see the United States, Canada, Australia and all Britain in an imperia combine against the yellow races if not the rest of the world. This is either stupidity or craft applied with a purpose. There is, to be sure, an Anglo-American understanding, unoffi- cial, unwritten, and to a large extent, un- spoken. And somehow this is growing with the years. But such understanding as there is, is for peace and not for ag- gression. Wherever one may travel, particularly in the Orient, one cannot escape the feel- ing that mankind's hope of peace and un- derstanding rests largely upon the shoul- ders of the English-speaking world. And we are increasingly mindful of this, Brit- ons and Americans everywhere. There is no menace to Japan, nor to any other nation, in this new manifesta- tion of Anglo-American friendship. Yo- kohama is 4,375 miles from Sydney, 6,700 miles from the United States, 4,420 miles such a driver has been going too fast to be able to stop in time to prevent colli with sion the gate, or he has not re- ceived sufficient warning of the ex istence of a grade crossing which might lie just beyond the blind turn or the steep embankment And speaking of warnings, emphasi should be placed on the danger and abso lute menace of the small advertising sign which line our country roadways in com- plete or partial imitation of touring dire: tion, cautionary signals and other in- formation either valuable or vital to the motorist. If you have passed a dozen signs the last half-mile telling you to stop at Smith’s for ham and eggs, or at Brown's for gasoline and oil, you will pay but scant attention to another one of similar size which may be intended to warn you that there is a dangerous rail road crossing 500 feet around the next turn. Recommendations made by Secretary Hoover’s highway safety conference to the effect that roadside signs be re- stricted to vital and valuable warnings and touring directions, may, if followed by all of the state motor vehicle com- missions, result in a very material saving of life at railroad crossings. —H.

And Guam and Cavite would now be bristling Gibraltars. To Japan we would sincerely suggest a careful reading of what the Australian Prime Minister, the distinguished Mr. Bruce, said in his speech of welcome to the American visitors: “The great Republic of the United States and the Commonwealth of Aus- tralia,” he declared, “stand for the same ideals and the same traditions. Facing similar problems under vastly different circumstances, both desire maintenance of the world’s peace and the limitation of the burden of armaments.” Painfully race-conscious, and fright- fully sensitive, Japan, we regret to say, is too inclined to wear a chip on her shoulder. So Premier Bruce’s words were particularly applicable to her when he said: “The future prosperity and peace of all countries bordering on the Pacific is best assured by mutual intercourse, un- derstanding and sympathy.” Let’s remember this—all of us. how he was saving the country for Cool- idge and the common people—saving it from the senate. Naturally, he read that part of the morning paper given up to his speech first. Then he read a news item. The news item told him: That President Coolidge wasn’t for his campaign. That he didn’t believe in it. That he was-against it That he opposed it. That it was out. ~ The President hadn't used just those words, But the “President’s spokesman,” discussing the matter with the newspaper correspondents at Swampscott, had made all those things perfectly clear. The cor- respondents were authorized to write that the President saw no need to revise the senate rules; that he believed the Dawes campaign ill-advised; that it was calcu- lated to hinder action on taxation, the world court and other subjects in which the President is interested; that it would | provoke bad feeling; that, in brief, he | | was agin’ it.
