WAR IN THE
PACIFIC
- Two Faces East
- Japanese
military acts unilaterally; thus Panay
incident one face, as govt. apologizes
- Closing Door - Japan may
nominally re-recognize Open Door in China, but to no
beneficial end for U.S.
- Sacrificial Offering -
Recalling of Mitsunami from China command indicates
military in jam over Panay
- If They Had These-- - Chinese army poorly trained, equipped or could rout thin Japanese; could use Rebs
- Out-Faced - Japanese
lose face again to British over demands for handing over
Chinese
- *Gunner's Quality -Japanese navy
larger and newer than ours, but quality of U.S. gunners
far superior
- Country in a Hurry - Chinese
operation costing Japan more than it can
continue--military budget huge
- A Difference - Tientsin is Brit. property; fight likely with Japan
- Decision - U.S. needs policy on China; stay with blockades to force Japan out or leave; else, lose face
- What, Not Who - British being shoved out, U.S. next; Yarnell best to stand up to Japan, but need decision
-
Empty Threats - Japanese issue empty threats to those who
don't leave China; believe Russia may attack
-
Pearl Harbor - Training exercises? Signal
to Japanese to stay home?
-
Jap Move - Treaty with Siam provides base for
taking over Dutch East Indies and other places
-
Indo-China - Japan wants; excuse=French use to send arms to China; no, base for Dutch E. Indies
- Decision? - Fleet from Pearl to Atlantic signals ceding E. Indies tin, rubber to Japanese; Latin Am. concern
-
Doctrine - Japanese "Monroe
Doctrine" merely enslavement doctrine
- Hard-Boiled - Leatherneck says U.S. did not "manhandle" disguised Japanese cops; refreshing bluntness
- Door Closed - GB accedes to Japan, closes Burma Road; may insure China's fall, cheap competition
- Stymied - Likely, because of Congress, isos., we will do nothing about Japan until disaster happens
- Green Light - Dem. plank gives Japan go-ahead to East Indies
- Crisis? - What will U.S. do if Japan moves for East Indies? Platforms say do nothing
- Squirrel Cage - Fleet at Pearl is only hedge against Japan moving south; but California supplies oil
- Blueprint - Listen to what Japan says: Strike without notice; desires to share world with Germany and Italy
- A Definition
- "Aggression" to
Japanese defined as anything which blocks its policy of
Pacific aggression
- Clarified - Tokyo learned
meaning of "aggression" from partner, Hitler;
U.S. "aggression" is blockade
- Oil for Foe
- Cal. oil to Japan of great
concern; will fuel Japanese ships when likely fight in
Pacific comes
