...small Japanese exporters on the advantages of the enormously expensive Manchukuoan conquest. Six months ago they suddenly became aware of another adventure of Japanese militar ists for which they had only the wildest enthusiasm. Last November, without the use of a single regiment, Japan's Major General Kenji Doihara set up a pro-Japanese "autonomous government" in eastern Hopei known as the Autonomous Federation for Joint Defense Against Communism. Its head was a twerpish-looking young man known as Yin Ju-keng, whose only flash of independence is a stolid refusal to allow himself to be photo graphed with...
...will long ago have discovered that the photograph (credited to Keystone) you printed on p. 21, TIME, Dec. 9, was not that of General Sung Cheh-yuan, as labeled. Difficult to corner with a camera, General Sung is much younger, larger, bigger-boned.

Japanese sweetness and light glinted in Southwest China this month in the optimistic person of General Kenji Doihara, bribe-brandishing chief of the Japanese Army spy service in Manchukuo (TIME, March 18). Last week the tubby but trig little advance agent for Japanese imperialism was back in Shanghai consuming highballs with correspondents and paying all the checks. Out over China's cables went his success story of delightful encounters with leading Southwest Chinese, such as Mr. Hu ("Hongkong Hu") Han-min, eminent apostle of the late, sainted Dr. Sun Yat-Sen "Father of the Chinese Revolution...
Japanese explain General Kenji Doihara to Occidentals as "our Lawrence of Manchuria." It was perfectly all right, they say, for Great Britain to detach Arabia from Turkey during the War by sending Colonel T. E. "Lawrence of Arabia" to stir up the tribes. Therefore has not General Doihara's work in Manchuria, Japanese ask, been equally all right...
