FIRST RETALIATIONS
CONSUL-GENERAL RECALLED SYDNEY, June 2. The Japanese Consul-General Mr. Murai, who has been trying to negotiate a trade treaty with the Commonwealth Government, has been recalled to Japan, where it is understood he will fill a senior position in the Foreign Office. His successor will be Mr. Takeki Horiuchi. One of the biggest flour mills in Japan, the Nishin mills, has recalled its Australian representative, Mr. K. Yamanoushi. Japanese wool buyers held aloof from the Melbourne wool sales, which resumed there today. They frankly admitted that this course was taken in retaliation against the recent tariff changes. . Official advice has been received at Sydney that Australian imports of flour into Manchukuo have been prohibited.
