FEELING TOWARDS AMERICA. A REVERSAL OF TONE. SAVING ON ARMY. *“— BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT Received June 18, 12.15 p.m. ... TOKIO, June 17. Ine authorities and leading newspapers are giving evidence of an almost complete reversal of tone regarding anti-Americanism. They are apparently alarmed at the strength of the agitation, and are now vigorously endeavouring to stem the popular tide which had previously been evoked. The police haye been ordered to arrest and sternly punish anyone further agitating against America.
General Ugaki, Minister for War, has prepared a plan to reduce the army from 20 to 14 divisions without reducing its numerical strength, saving 30,000,000 yen, which he proposes to transfer to the air and chemical services.—Sydney Sun Cables.
