SHORT-SIGHTED JAPS
Restricted Trade Outlook
Described.
NEW ZEALANDER ABROAD
(Received 12 noon.)
SYDNEY, this day.
Mr. E. Abbey Jones, managing director of the "Southland News," who returned from the East by the Nieuw Holland, said the mentality of the Japanese made it difficult for them to see further than their own side of any proposition.
For this reason they greatly resented Australia's action in regard to the recent trade restrictions.
"All sorts of counter-attacks were advocated in the Press," he added, "but these appear to have been generally impracticable, especially the suggestion for an immediate increase of flocks in Manchukuo to ensure local production of wool.
"Tlxe most serious result of the prolonged rupture of trade harmony may be an increase in the manufacture of artificial substitutes for local consumption."
