John Moore Allison (April 7, 1905 – October 28, 1978) was a US diplomat most commonly known for being US Ambassador to Japan from 1953 to 1957. Before 1953 he had been Foreign Service Officer in various places in China and Japan. From 1957 to 1958 he was Ambassador to Indonesia and from 1958 to 1960 to Czechoslovakia. In the 1960s and 1970s he was Professor at the University of Hawaii. In 1973, he published his memoir, ''Ambassador from the Prairie''.
On January 26, 1938, John M. Allison, at the time consul at the American embassy in Nanking, was struck in the face by a Japanese soldier.〔 Full-length article (here ).

Katsuo Okazaki, the Japanese Consul-General in Nanking apologized formally on January 30〔They Were in Nanjing: The Nanjing Massacre Witnessed by American and British, p216〕 (after the Americans demanded they do so). This incident, together with the looting of American property in Nanking that took place at the same time, further strained relations between Japan and the United States, which had already been damaged by the Panay incident less than two months earlier.
In 1954, 16 years after the Allison Incident, Allison and the man who had apologised to him, Okazaki, signed the U.S. and Japan Mutual Defense Assistance Agreement on behalf of their respective countries.〔(U.S. and Japan Mutual Defense Assistance Agreement )〕 Allison was then United States Ambassador to Japan and Okazaki, Japanese Foreign Minister.
In 1957, during his ambassadorship to Indonesia, he recommended the U.S. government mediate on the Western New Guinea issue.〔 Full-length article (here ). (login required)〕
