“The Japanese arc not directly concerned about exclusion from Australia and New Zealand. What is occupying their attention is their exclusion from America.” said Mr. W. H. Cocker, one of the four New Zealand delegates to the recent Conference of Pacific Relations at Honolulu, in the course of an address to the League of Nations Society at Auckland. He added that the dignity of Japan had been seriously hurt by America’s attitude. There was scarcely an American at the conference who did not agree that the method of exclusion had be* l a unfortunate, and was likely to cause unnecessary friction. The method adonted by the United States practically amounted to slamming the door in Japan’s face.”
