Already organizations of mercy are
on the scenes, rendering what aid is j
possible (n the stricken areas. The
southern division of the Red (Toss
has a division representative in the
Mississippi distret, and varous other
relief Agencies ar*» at work caring for

Whatever statement the Japanese
government finds it necessary to malte,
however, will be received by the
Washington government in a spirit of
| complete friendliness, and with a de-
sir'e to do everything possible to pro
mote good relations consistent with
! the maitnenance of American sover
eignty. The desire of President Cool

clear to the people of Japan that
neither the Washington government
nor the American people cherish any
