We certainly should be permitted to build our fleet up to treaty strength. as she has. We certainly have a right to see who should enter our confines as immigrants. as she has. We certainly have a right to permit any part of or all our fleet to ride upon the waves on the Pacific coast. as she has. But unfortunately. destiny seems determined that all these things work against the friendly diplomatic relationship of Japan with us.
