The article provides discussion on various topics. If Japan's growing economic difficulties have reduced popular enthusiasm for the war, no such news has passed the censor. The economic restraints placed upon Japan by the boycott are not of a sort calculated to create disaffection within Japan. There has been a sharp decline in Japan's military efficiency in recent weeks; and there has been a drastic reduction in Japan's purchases of strategic raw materials as a result of the boycott. It is only reasonable to believe that there is some connection between the two facts. If this is the case, China may yet win the war--provided that the boycott can be maintained and extended.
