Item # 650971

July 27, 1939

THE SPRINGFIELD UNION, Mass., July 27, 1939

* United States and Japan tensions
* Treaty of Commerce and Navigation

The front page has a banner headline: "U. S. SCRAPS TREATY WITH JAPAN" with subheads. (see) First report coverage on the termination of the 1911 Treaty of Commerce and Navigation with Japan. Was this a major factor to the eventual attack on Pearl Harbor ?

Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete with all 20 pages, light toning at the margins, a little spine wear, generally nice.
