Japan and China will still be at war. in the sense that no peace treaty between those nations will have been signed. After the San Francisco treaty has been signed. what will happen then? Japan always has looked to the Asiatic mainland for raw materials. Unless we are to supply the raw materials necessary for Japans industrial economy. she must get them from the Asiatic mainland. For us to supply those materials is expensivefor us. and for Japan. It may well be only a short time after Japan regains her autonomy before she enters into a commercial treaty with Red China.
