The conditions between America and Japan were similar to. if not more aggravated, than when the trade treaty was denounced. Japan had continued to violate the rights of United States citizens. It would be futile to enter into a new commercial agreement till Japan made efforts to observe Ihe Nine-Power Treaty. He added that he proposed to urge legislation empowering the President to place an embargo on Japanese trade.
