X 3739 STOP PRESS AREESTOF BRITONS IN JAPAN LONDON, July SO. The Foreign Secretary (Lord .Halifax),, speaking in the House of Lords to-day, defined Britain’s attitude to the arrest of British subjects by Japanese authorities. Referring to the Japanese claim that those. arrested were part of an espionage network throughout Japan, Lord Halifax said; “It is hardly necessary for me to state that there is no foundation whatever for this allegation by the Japanese Government.” As to the Japanese version of the death of Reuter’s representative (Mr J. Melville Cox), Lord Halifax said that Britain- was. completely unable to accept the Japanese assumption of Mr Cox’s guilt. Strong representations had been made to the Japanese / authorities by the British Ambassador (Sir Robert Craigie), and he. himself had left the Japanese Ambassador in no doubt of the serious view taken of the incident by Britain. RAIDER SHOT DOWN A German bomber was shot down ofl! the. Scottish coast this afternoon. This was the-second German aeroplane • . shot - down during the day.
