A PLEDGE OF PEACE
Houston Chronicle: Probably the
chief value ill the interchange of
notes between Secretary Hull and the
Japanese foreign minister, pledging
mutually peaceable intentions, will
lie in their psychological effect on the
people of the two countries.
There has been so much loose talk
of unfriendliness between the two
countries and of the possibilities of a
conflict that a counter blast for peace
and confidence has been sorely need-
ed. Perhaps this interchange of notes
provides it.
In any case, the Japanese spokes-
man has gone to the heart of the sit-
uation in asserting that there is no
; difficulty between us, or likely to
come between us, which is not sus-
ceptible to elimination by council and
conciliation.
To put it more plainly, there is
nothing at issue between the two na-
tions, and so far as we can see there
,is nothing likely to be at issue be-
tween them, that is remotely worth
fighting over.
We have not approved of Japan's
excursion into China, and we are in-
clined to suspect her of aggression
against Russia in Manchuria—al-
though the latter case is far from
proved. We would be glad to join
with a concert of powers in curbing
the activities of nations—Japan
among others—which nations gen-
erally believe are inimical to the
maintenance of a peaceful world or-
der, but that is ver^ far from saying
that we have any idea of fighting
Japan because of any of her present
Asian policies or suspecced policies.
While American friends of world
peace and justice believe quite gen-
erally that Japan has been seriously
in the wrong, and have sought to
give expression to that opinion, they
nevertheless have become alarmed at
the propaganda for war which jingoes
in both nations have erected on the
foundation of this disapproval.
They must seek now to offset the
effects of this. They must insist on a
demonstration of real friendship for)
the people of Japan, and on as much
diplomatic co-operation with the
Japanese government as is possible
under existing conditions.

AGAIN IN DEMAND...THE WORLD OVER
It has been estimated that the first
voyage of Columbus to America cost
only about the equivalent of $7,000
now.
In the last eight months, more and more requests for BUDWEISER
have been received from every civilized country in the world.... In
the fourteen years that American beers were off the market, these
foreign countries still had their own good beer. Yet, after four-
teen years, they again single out BUDWEISER among American
brews, because it has an unforgettable personality—identified with
the fine art of living the world over.... The biggest-selling bottled
beer in history and the demand for BUDWEISER quality built the
world’s largest brewery.
For those
who make living
