JAPAN’S FOREIGN POLICY
BROADCAST BY MINISTER A STAND AGAINST COMMUNISM Press Association—By Telegraph —Copyright TOKIO, January 6. (Received January 6, at 1 p.m.) In the first broadcast by any Japanese Foreign Minister in support of his policy, Mr Arita, giving a new name to the German-Japanese agreement, said that under the anti-Commintern Accord, Japan had taken the step to save Cnina and Manchukuo from Communist penetration. Japan was not interested in Germany’s political system. Those who thought Japan was joining the Facist group were ill-in-formed- regarding the true nature of her Constitution. China’s tendency to become Bolshevised seriously threatened Japan, which heartily desired the Nanking Government and Chinese nationals to realise the importance of amicable relations. Japan was anxious to increase friendship with England and America, and aimed also at the readjustment of diplomatic relations with China and the Soviet.
