TOKIO, May 9. The Minister of Commerce and Industry (Mr. Matsumotoh interviewed, said: "It is a thousand pities Britain took such an action as imposing quotas, which, perhaps, are necessary from the British viewpoint, but which, I can't help thinking, violate at least the spirit of the AngloJapanese' Treaty because they are obviously aimed at our goods. . "I think the British attitude- .is particularly unfair. I estimate that the trade affected will be reduced about two-thirds in its present channels, which is an amount not grave, but still appreciable." •
