JAPAN’S TREATY WITH CHINA
Nationalists May Have Pact (N.Z. Press Association-Copyright! (Rec. 8 p.m.) WASHINGTON, AugUat M. Several Senators said to-day that they had been informed that Japan and Nationalist China would make a separate peace pact after the general Japanese Peace Treaty had been signed at San Francisco next week. The Senators said the assurance came from Mr John Foster Dulles, the State Department adviser and chief architect of the San Francisco treaty. Some Senators told reporters that Mr Dulles had pledged them to secrecy. Mr Dulles was quoted as saying that public knowledge ft the arrangement might make it exceedingly difficult to get some nations to take part in the San Francisco conference. The Secretary of State (Mr Dean Acheson) told a prem conference yesterday that Japan would be free to negotiate separate treaties later with countries which did not sign th* San Francisco treaty.
The Senators said the agreement between Nationalist China and Japan was expected to be made public soon after the San Francisco conference.
