AXIS APPLAUSE
General Tojo’s Speech
LONDON, November 17.
The speech ma-de to the Japanese Diet by the Prime Minister, General Tojo. has been applauded in Axis quarters and the German Transocean News Service quotes Japanese newspapers as saying that the speech expressed what the Japanese people had been wanting to hear for a long time. Japanese newspapers commenting on the speeches, however, clearly show a note of disappointment. The “Chugai Shogyo Shimpo,” Tokio, asserts that the discussions between Japan and America offer a key to the Pacific, and the paper joins with others in requesting more information on this matter.
The ‘‘Asahi Shimbun” expresses the opinion that the situation is not hopeless provided the United States is made to understand Japan’s true intentions.
