There lis no desire (<r intention on
the part of the Administration either
to put an embargo on trade with
Japans or to ilo an.vthing which
would involve the nation in an armed
conflict. Even if there were a situa
tion calling for armed rntervention
in China, this country' could not un
dertake it without the cooperation
of Great Britain, and the British
navy is bu.sy at-home, keeping guanl
of its country’s Mediterranean route
to the Far East. But if the other
members to the Nine-I’ower Con
ference chuoi^to adoi^ Mr. Roose
velt’s suggestion of a “<;uarantine”
against . aggressors--meaning Japan
in this ca.se—Ambassador Davis has
authority to agree on behalf of the
United States. And a unanimous
agreement by the nine powers to i.so-
late Japan from all foreign trade
intercourse would, it is believed
here, speedily end her aggressions in
i China.
Why Japs Would (luit
For Japan is not in financial con
dition to carry out her plans for the
conquest of China if her foreign
trade is cut off. It might hurt Amer
ican trade for a .short time, .since
Japan is our largest customer for
