...Italy and France, although I should not be surprised to see England adopt an aggressive policy toward Germany before either of the two former powers do. This seemingly illogical behavior by the nation whose vital interests are the least affected may be explained by the fact that in all likelihood the English would move rapidly in order to forestall any cash moves by Nazi hotheads like Goring which would precipitate a situation highly conducive to war. In addition to blocking any such German attempts in advance and thus avoiding a war for the present, such a policy would have...
...future and likely to occur in 1935; but since that time a profound and far-reaching change has supposedly taken place in Japanese foreign policy. The outward sign of this is the retirement of General Araki as Minister of War and his replacement by a man, who, in all likelihood, will confine himself to the army and make no attempt to interfere in purely political problems.

The reason for this revival of the Yellow Peril is, of course, the realization that the realistically minded Japanese have managed in spite of the Washington Treaty to build a field which is, in all likelihood, the equal of any in the world today, and the fact that Japanese commercial competition, particularly in the field of textiles, threatens to drive European products from the market. The Italian outburst is typical of world feeling toward Japan; England, seeing her textile market in India ruined by the infiltration...
