This map, a handy reference in following the present Sino-Japenese conflict, shows Japan's increase of empire, begining with the island of Formosa, then Korea, then Manchukuo and Jehol, and now the northern Chinese provinces of Chahar, Suiyuan, Hopei, Shanshi and Shantung, which are under Japenese domination. Her fighting force of 7,500,000 armed men is to be as well-trained and efficient as any in the world. The figures of military strength in the map and in the article, are only approximate and relative. Statistics of war machinery are at best a well-informed guess.
