Japan Will Not Go To War

14

BY Onoto Watanna

Japanese-American Author of “A Japanese Nightingale,” Etc.
Japan will not go to war unless well prepared. Her past history proves that the alien land law should be repealed because it is unjust and affronts a friendly and proud nation.
New York, Jan. 29
