DEALING WITH JAPAN
OSTRACISM PROPOSED BY U.S.A. SENATOR. NOT LIKELY TO LEAD TO WAR. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. WASHINGTON, January 3. Senator Pittman, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, proposed today that the United States of America “ostracize” Japan if she continues her actions against which the State Department has protested. The Senator declared: “I could not conceive any declaration of war by Japan because of any moral sanctions the United States of America might impose in the interests of international justice. “The Japanese are too intelligent to declare war, first, because such a declaration would be absurd as they know and we know that they do not intend to cross the Pacific to attack us. Such a declaration would do them no good and would do us no harm.”
