This article focuses on the political issues related to France, The U.S. and countries in the Far East. The collapse of France and the absorption of Great Britain in its life-and-death struggle with Germany provide immense new opportunities to Japanese imperialism, but before they can be seized, the liquidation of the Chinese war is essential. Confused and shell-shocked as the people of France are today, there is little sign of any mass movement toward fascism. National socialism had a huge popular following in Germany before it seized power. Foreign dictators and aggressors may lick their chops over American political differences, but if they do they will fool themselves disastrously. The fever of a presidential campaign does not endanger the U.S. national health.
