A Russo Japanese union directed at the United States was forecast last night by Senator J. Hamilton Lewis, Democrat, of Illinois, in a speech in the National Radio Forum, arranged bv The Washington Star and broadcast over a Nationwide network of the Na tional Broadcasting Co. Discussing the present situation in the Far East, Senator Lewis declared at the outset that Japan seeks to be come the overlord of Asia—that she "is preparing an Asiatic Monroe Doc trine.” Both Japan and Russia, he continued, have grievances against this country, the former by reason of the exclusion act and the latter because of non recognition Union With Russia. With such a condition of affairs, Senator Lewis continued, “let it be ex pected that soon America will con front a union of Japan and Russia. "This will confront the United States with a defiance, and at such hour wo will be fortunate if under the guise of some alleged offense by the United States pussia will not be incited by in fluences to seize Alaska, her former possession, now disclosed as rich in all resources. At the same time as this in vasion Japan w’ill move to take the Philippines for all their uses.” Such a combined movement. Senator Lewis pointed out. w'ould divide Amer ican defenses thousands of miles apart and "bring us to a point of danger where it is assumed by the Asiatic mas ter that to avoid the results of a con flict between ourselves and the new combined Asia the United States would yield to a proposed new relationship, accepting an international equality with the new' alliance of Asia.” Opposes Arms C onference. In view of this. Senator Lewis said, he opposes the arms conference now' in progress, believing that “any effort to lessen the national defense of our country or to weaken its power to de fend itself against the combination which now' threatens is a serious error filled with tragedy.” Senator Lewis was introduced by Oliver Otven Kuhn, managing editor of The Star. The text of Senator Lewis’ address follows: Ladies and gentlemen of the radio audience: I beg to thank my friend, Mr. Kuhn, for his flattering reference to me. As one of my friends, he finds it agreeable to be generous to an ex tent quite beyond my dues. I have been asked to speak to you on the subject of the present complications in Asia, I assume because it is known that I spent some tirre in the Orient, first following the war between Russia and Japan and later upon other mat ters that threw me in touch with the particular territory that is now both under discussion and assault. When I was in Manchuria I had to observe that which all would have dis covered—that the railroad was built as a main line of communication to connect Moscow, Russia, with Peking, China. It was equally plain that the road was the one source for the dis tribution for war material and was created as a military agency. Possession of China Is Object let it be understood that the con troversy of Japan for the railroad and that of China for the possession of its neighboring land. Manchuria, now of Chinese occupation, as well as the claim of Russia for the road, as as serted from Moscow, has for its object the possession of China and adjacent territory. With this consummated, there will be a continuous control from Japan to the border of Siberia. This connection between Japan and Siberia will leave Japan as the master director in the affairs of Asia. This is the ulti mate object and apparently the prime purpose of Japan. You will observe that the scheme to pacify and supervise all Asia is a nat ural one on the part of Japan. It is one that could have been expected, particularly by the United States of America. And it should have been an ticipated when one considers the his tory cf the immediate past and pros pect of the present. Japarr patterns after a policy and action of the United States. We will not forget that we took : such course in behalf of our own United States to pacify North America when we entered Cuba, then Mexico and later the Central American countries. Let us recall that the United States of America assumes to maintain the Mon roe Doctrine, and under it protect the destinies of Central and South Amer ica. so as to assure these lands against dominion of any European government. Here we pause to make the parallel and to note openly and without reserve Cites Japanese Aims SENATOR JAMES HAMILTON LEWIS Of Illinois, who last night declared that Japan was aiming at a domination of Asiatic affairs in a speech in the National Radio Forum, arranged by The Washington’tStar. — Harris-Ewing Photo. that which Is the apparent truth. Japan is preparing an Asiatic Monroe Doc trine. The 'example of the United States is before Japan, and with this lesson Japan proceeds in the pursuit oi her policy at a time when China is in distraction. She takes possession and control both of the territory and directs the privileges of all Asia. This is following the course Japan took when she centered upon and appropriated Korea. The movement is upon the as sumed right of Japan of forcing peace and preserving Asia for the Asiatics, as we hope to preserve America on the American continent for the Americans. While this movement on the part of Japan is to conquer China and to put it under the sovereignty of Japan in her control of Asia, it lessens to a great degree the opportunity of America to trade on equal terms with Japan or with the countries of the world in Asia. From this result there arises before us a much more serious phase than the loss of trade. I hesitate to pronounce an alarm to my countrymen, but I must not withhold from the reflection of our citizens the threatening destiny. And here, in the words of a watcher at the approaching specter in "Hamlet,” "I will cross it though it blast me." Re flect that Russia has grievances against America for disrupting the commercial treaties between America and her coun try. She continues her grievances against the administration of Taft, Wilson and Hoover for refusing to rec ognize the Bolshevik administration. And with this she carries a further re sentment for our holding up the pres ent Russia to the world as unworthy of equality with the Republic of the United States. For all thesp grievances Russia carries secretly her curved sword in its restless cavern. Cite Acceptance as Allies. The countries of Japan and Russia— they remind us that the United States has excluded their people from resi dency or citizenship. They turn scorn fully to us to assert that however justi s fiable such policy of exclusion could have been before the World War, on the theory of the right of each nation to hold aioof its people from any other nation, yet these Asiatic countries in vite attention of the world to the fact that in the World War conflict the United Stales accepted them as allies in the partnership with America, France and England. Japan now insists in diplomatic con tention that tills contractual relation ship in the war changed the situation between the governments as it had ex isted in the past. She claims that as we in America reserved the right now to keep out the Asiatic people, includ ing Russia, from ail America, she i Japan i. as the guardian of Russia, under the Asiatic Monroe Doctrine, re serves tiie right to protect Asia from any possession of enjoyment or of any privilege in Asia by the Americans. Here we have again the beginning of the old issue of Asiatic safety—the East against the West. Our history j records how often this particular contest, controversy and rivalry has | been played upon the stage of creation, i and we will not forget to summon in the name of Christianity the memory that this moved as far west until it reached 'T' in France, and there driven bs, ^y the forces of Chris tianity, led by a Russian and a Prus sian general. These two were guided by the great Pole whose masterful judgment and superior tactics com manded the zone and saved the situa tion. Russo-Japanese Union Seen. Now. with this phase such as I have remarked upon as it exists today in j Asia, with its threat to the United | States, let it be expected that soon j America will confront a union of j Japan and Rusia. This will con- j front the United States with a de- | fiance, and at sucn hour, my fellow j countrymen, we will be fortunate if.

GOOD TG THE LAST DROPI A product of general foods corporation # 1MJ Q p 0orp * ■ . .. .. . t under the guise of some alleged offense [ by the United States, Russia will not be incited by influences to seize Alaska, her former possession, now disclosed as rich In all resources. At the same time of this invasion Japan will move to take the Philippines for all their uses. This move, as will be observed surely by all military tacticians, would divide the American defenses thousands of miles apart, and in riiese distractions bring us to a point of danger where it is assumed by the Asiatic master that to avoid the results of a conflict be tween ourselves and the now combined Asia the United States would yield to a new proposed relationship, accepting an international equality with the new alliance of Asia. Here is where I tender my opposi tion to the disarmament meet now under way at Geneva. In this aspect of the Eastern world as I have de scribed it and of the world as we know it, I am forced to say that to me any ef fort to lessen the national defense of our country or to weaken its power to de fend itself against the combination which now threatens, is a serious error filled with tragedy. Asia now notes the temper of Europe toward the United States as lately expressed in many forms and many aspects touching the matter of the foreign loans and the efforts df our land to collect them. Asia controls herself in the security of thought thdt not one European nation can be brought to our aid in the hour of our peril. I must insist that in such surroundings from the world, for us at any point and in any assembly to demand of any world nation that it should limit its ar maments below that which each feels is its necessity, is to give these wcrld na tions the reciprocity right to demand the limitation of the arms of defense ot America, and thus cut from us the necessary capacity in both quantity arid quality of that which would repel any assault which they or their Asiatic allies contemplate making against us. It has, to my thinking, become a sad 1 hour -when two classes of our citizenry : have divided themselves one against the i other. First is one wno repels any ex I penditure In behalf of our national de fense apd Its preparation merely be cause it takes some of our taxable pos i sessions in order to pay for the defense. Others sincerely feel that the very pos session upon our part of the capacity to.defend our Nation against an ad vance Is an affront to other nations and invites them to assail us because we have prepared to meet such assault. Between these two well meaning and. ■ let*us believe, well intending people our Nation *has been brought to a condi tion where none can say what is our capacity for national defense at this ; time, arid more regretfully we have divided .that spirit of patriotism in our country where one side feels that it is i to commit an offense against society and religion to demand preparation for natidnal defense, while another feels that they are regarded as outlaws against1 humanity if they merely pro test against other nations having the right to direct the course of the life and death of this our Repub'ic—to direct’ her life in order to avoid her death. - Let;America look up and look out. i The hour calls upon us to be on puard | and for our citizens to be watchful. Let us fall know that we are living in a ! new era and that the order of action fitted for yesterday, in the days of friendship and International good will, ; was ode thing, while the rules for the new order that has raised itself between America and the world, leavjng us in ( our defense standing alone, is wholly a different thing. We hope for the new day—that new day making for friend ship frdtn all Asia and Europe. We dream‘of the hour when in ourselves will' be the love for all mankind, but until this Heaven’s grant is realized America has from her people but one ; order. It is vigilance by her citizens, guardianship by her Nation, and a just reparatidh and continuous strength that shall preserve the United States as the true Republic of all and freedom under God—tne pride of her children and the glory of the world! I thank you. —---• Trial Resumes After 15 Years. HULL, Quebec 0P>.—After a delay of 15 years, Jean Labelle is on trial again. His trial started that many years ago.
