purpose of find an answer to the question of then conference is not a Confer ence seems More of a labor of Folly than of yet that is the con Ference Pacific relations which to visit Japan before going to we were All somewhat i unset to read this morning in our i Jim pie of the Manichi a Brief note that the conference had been 1 indefinitely i of in Canada that would i Japan that would All have a Brief Aro Mcl and take the first boat but this is the Orient things do not mean quite what they the first news we received when we reached the shores of was that there would be that was quickly there would certainly by conference of though it might indeed be of the variety which and Vincent Massey hurried on to presumably to see what kind of a conference it would three Days ago came instructions for the canadians Tho stayed member were port so Tanghal on the 14th the others by the of the there a conference and it would be held Athan Chow Accord ing to the original that Al atthe last preparations of any kind had yet been made for the in close touch with japanese the meantime we have been in pretty close touch with the who have been very kind in the Way of entertaining and who More or taken us into their con it would be impossible to exaggerate their keen in the Institute of Pacific it would also be impossible to exaggerate their anxiety lest a conference of any kind be held in which they were unable to take a they will go into almost danger to prevent that it is not Only the members of the Institute who feel that every japanese with whom we talk has something today about the impossibility of a conference being a conference unless the japanese Are even our hotel As we waited at Miyan Oshita for the train to brought up the subject and discussed it in a Way that showed not Only intelligence but not a Jerome some knowledge of what had been the president of the passing Between the two countries Russell architect 1110 Mcarthur building phone 21705 but if the japanese Are willing to to even in the face of a very real danger to their chinese Are unwilling to have them they do not want to have japanese Dele Gates murdered while on this Mission of peace and International under the japanese have been invited to Send a representative to the meeting of the after is the body which must de cide whether the conference is to be a conference this meeting will be held in a much safer place than which is distinctly unhealthy for japanese just but they have also been All but openly invited to Sta away the con Ference it having been conveyed to them the presence of one japanese Delegate might solve actual danger there of not Only the difficulty of actual danger to the lives of the visiting there is also the absolute certainty of political death to any chinese who might consult with the i the meeting were tie re is even the probability of actual danger to chinese Council meetings attract Little attention and Are riot but conference even if Are apparently held in a Blaze of and if held this will certainly be surrounded by eager so for the Days there has been much jockeying Back and Forth in the Effort to gain the most favored of ing that the Best guess is that there is going to be a conference Hlll not be called a vill be continuously and vigorously described As not being a meeting of it May even attempt o limit its discussions to things in the state of tension at present it is unthinkable that hese political arid International problems could be kept out of any much such a if will deeply wound the the Institute of Pacific relations May a More or less academic organization in Canada to the More internationally minded of her but it is a very real thing to the millions of newspaper readers in Japan it is a living part of their International life until we get More of the chinese it is impossible to judge As to Wisdom or otherwise of holding a conference which is not to be a it May and probably a Case of the continued life of the Institute or the wounding of the japanese being the alternatives be tween our leaders have had to it May also be that this the japanese quite do not intend to let the chinese away with their inti mation that the japanese Are really afraid to come to just As naturally the chinese do not want to admit that they cannot guard their delegates from danger even though they know that such guarding is an so the japanese keep saying that they will go to China if their personal safety is to that end they have suggested that the conference meeting place be changed to Shanghai or Honolulu in order that the discussions May take place on safer and More Neutral even a direct thinking Westerner can see that the chinese cannot change the place of the conference without losing prestige or rumours that Chechin sewere not at All keen to have the conference in China at and that Little preparation had been made for us at hang reached us As we arrived in we Are very much Cut off from but enough has come through to make us realize that whatever May have been the truth of the Early the chinese now want very much to have the con Ference in and want it at it is thus All one Puzzle after an we have All
