Anti-Japanese sentiment in San Francisco has spiked and the local authorities have yet to investigate or pursue justice. Tension between Japan and the United States is unusual, as an experienced diplomat on the subject stated: “America is the last country with which I expected complications with Japan. Traditional friendship of the two nations uniformly maintained by the government at Washington, makes me almost hesitate to believe that an anti-Japanese sentiment exists in Uncle Sam’s territory”. Fortunately, President Roosevelt is a capable and thoughtful leader, who will no doubt resolve the matter efficiently.
