日米間の緊張が高まっていた1940年夏、ジョン・オライアン(John F. O'Ryan、第一次世界大戦におけるニューヨーク州兵師団長(少将)で1940年当時ウォール街のロー・ファームLoucksの共同経営者)、投資顧問のサイモン・ホイットニー(Simon Whitney)と日本経済の専門家ウォーレン・ハンスバーガー(Warren Hunsberger)らから成るオライアン使節団が、日本経済連盟の招きで、日本各地と中国の日本軍占領地域(満洲、華北、華中)を訪問し、日本の政界・経済界の多数の指導者(明石照男、鮎川義介、藤原銀次郎、松岡洋右、迫水久常、など)とアジアの外国人社会の代表者と会見した。この使節は、元外交官で日本経済連盟対外委員会副委員長であった澤田節蔵が企画したもので、使節団の結成には、大蔵省のニューヨーク駐在財務官西山勉と関係のあったイーストマン・ディロン社のノーバート・マッケンナ(Nobert A. McKenna)が尽力した。
