CHANCE DEMANDED
EAST WANTS ITS OWN HOUSE
EUGENE (Oregon), October 14.
The Japanese Foreign Minister, Mr. j Matsuoka, writing in the magazine of the University of Oregon, from which he graduated in 1900, asserted that Japan stands wrongfully condemned before the bar of international opinion. He admitted that not all Japanese are motivated by idealism and said, "In our midst we find many minds that cannot conceive of an armed contest except in terms of conquest," but he insisted that such a school of thought did not prevail. j
He said: "The East demands a chance ,to build her own house and live her own life under the new order born from her own mind. Japan has taken the leadership because no other nation is capable."
