...told that Dutch editors are speculating on whether some sort of understanding does not exist between the Netherlands Government and British Prime Minister Baldwin. It seems incredible that Dutch editors, or editors of any nationality, could possibly believe that an understanding does not exist. But the Anglo-Dutch alliance is not aimed at Japan. On the contrary an Anglo-Dutch fleet in the South Pacific will prove an inestimable aid to the Japanese in the coming Pacific war.

...presume we will have to admit that that fiction is pretty well established in our jurisprudence. But it originated in the most egregious fiction that was ever established in any system, that is that the king can do no wrong, because at the time it was incorporated in the Anglo-Saxon jurisprudence the king did not do anything else but wrong, and the reason why the tribunals were denied to the citizens was because of the king's continuous wrongdoing...
