There is a determined drive on the part of certain persons, some connected with the government, to put the U.S. into war with Japan. They are careful to say that that is the very reverse of their purpose, but their words and their acts are precisely such as one would expect if they were part of a deliberate plan to embroil the U.S. in the war now going on in Asia. Washington newspapermen were freely saying that they expected to see strong action against the Japanese fishermen who are fishing off the Alaskan coast. Their presence provides a wonderful opportunity to rush some cutters and destroyers up there to prove to Japan once more that the U.S. cannot be trifled with.
