interpreting The War

By Kirke L. Simpson Associated Press Staff Writer

The noteworthy fact about the arrival of "many thouancis" of Australians at Singapore is that they got there unopposed. If Japan actually was preparing to enter ‘the wnr soon on the side of her Europ- can axis affinities, that hardly could ‘have happened.

It was an opportunity lost for Japan if she was poised for a dive into the conflict.

Instead of war, however. Japan offers peace mediation to Britain. either in the tar east or in Eur- ope, or both. ‘That. "special message" from Tokyo to London is perhaps unique in the history of diplomacy.

Japan could not have seriou‘ ly be- lieved that her offer would be ac- cepted. She had her answer in ad- vance in the arrival at Singapore of the big Australian force.

Japan's purposes are still being judged in London and in Washing- ton. largcly in the light of her treaty alignment witll the Nazi-Fascist axis. Whether or not the treaty committed Japan to any definite action its implications were plain- and they were not friendly to Brit- ain in her dark hour.

‘That leaves two possible motives for the Japanese peace move. It might. have been inspired from Berlin as an offshoot of the Nazi peace move aimed at Greece. Or it might have been gesture designed to impres: the home folk in Japan.

There has been speculation about a. possible split between Japanese army hot-heads. held to be respon- sible for the "China incident." wllii-il had plagued Japan for years now and the navy clique. The amly poll- ticians are credited with n de ire to strike at Singapore and push on southward while Britain is too busy at home to send her main fleet to that front. Navy opinion is said to oppose such action.
