epald be used to advantage and if in five years success crowned efforts to settle this
complicated problem, it would be remarkable.
Between the two countries, there are some 185 million people. To be sure some
have been killed but before this world wide mass slaughter, there were 85 million
In addition to the numbers there are other
Germans and 102 million Japanese. This represents a lot of people. Thera are two
