AGAINST BRITAIN.
I —•— JAP. TRADE DRIVE. ! . v Lavish Naval Policy Threatens Bankruptcy. DISARMAMENT FACTOR. (United P.A.—Electric Telegraph—Copyright) (Received 11.30 a.m.) LONDON, August 27. The "Financial Times" reports ; that the Japanese trade guilds, supported by the Government, will send a mission to South America and elsewhere to drive out British goods if Britain fails to satisfy Japan in the forthcoming conversations, from which the latter hopes for little as all the Japanese trade profits at present are sunk in armaments. Japan is spending enormous sums to bring the Navy to full purity with Britain and America, and is threatening the country with bankruptcy. It is considered that Britain and America arc unlikely to enter agreements in the interests of Japanese trade unless Japan will agree to a disarmament policy that will enable the raising of revenue for balancing the Budget, thereby relieving the heavilytaxed masses and stemming the present dangerous social and political unrest.
