Abstract

The Week
April 4, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

This article focuses on various issues related to politics. The long deadlock between Japan and the U.S. upon the shipping question was two-edged, preventing Japan's full development of her yards for want of steel plates, and American use of Japanese-built ships in the submarine zone. Twenty steamers, aggregating 100,000 tons, are not much to obtain of a country which has well over 2,000,000 tons. Another dark conspiracy of the Washington Administration has been foiled. The plot to lynch General Leonard Wood was detected last week by some of the most eminent American newspaper sleuths.
