A FIRM PEOPLE
Japanese Cannot Be Intimidated (8.35 p.m.) NEW YORK, July 23. “The Japanese are a reasonable people who are amenable to fair arguments," the Domei News Agency declared. “But are also a firm people who cannot he intimidated,” says the “New York Times.” In spite of the official Japanese admission that the recent intensification of the air and naval assaults had produced some signs of unrest among the Japanese people, the Agency insisted “that the American tactics are serving to whip up the fighting fervour of the Japanese people to an immeasurably higher pitch than ever previously. The Japanese cannot be defeated by any such tactics as the Americans may conceive upon the premises of their own psychology.”
