Dr.

explained,
In
opening
his
address,
that
there
were
two
sides
to
every
question
and
here
were
to
this
Oriental
ques-lon.
In
the
evolution
of
the
Pacific
it
was
natural
that
thcr;.
should
be
a
clash
of
civilizations
Five
hundred
years
ago
the
Orient
was
more
advanced
than
wa.v
Europe
but
the
rise
of
Industrialism
In
Europe
had
caused
that
part
of
the
world
to
become
very
aggressive.
In
the
Orient
Japan
was
th:
first
country
to
feel
the
Impetus
and
It
changed
rapidly.
China
was
larger
and
not
so
united,
each
section,
ofthe
country
having
charge
of
Its
own
affairs
so
that

The

were
strong

they

by
the

Japan
was
still
thinking
along

lines
while
China
was
a
pawn
In
thr
game
of
world
politics.
Jonn
watched
Britain
take
over
India.
France
take
Indo-Chlna
and,
Germany
capture
most
of
the
trad"

of
the
east.
China
was
divided
Into
snheres
of
lnnfluence
and
nl
agreed
upon
the
policy
of
"the

In,
that

which

Resents

Under
the
treaty
between
Japan
and
Great
Britain,
Japan
had
agreed
to
look
after

Inter

In

Orient
but
