JAPAN’S AMBITIONS
Dr. Sec’s Remarks Criticised .NOT. COMMENSENSE. VIEW. (Bj- Telegraph—Press Association.) DUNEDIN, Feb. 24. Dr. Fong Foo See’s statement that Japan was ambitious to overcome China and the world was submitted to Mr Kawamura, manager for Australia and New Zealand of a Japanese firm. He expressed deep sorrow that the representative of a nation which included many good friends of his should have committed himself to such an announcement. “Anyone with ordinary commcnsense will know whether the statement is right or not,” he said, “Japan learned a lesson from Germany’s failure and is not likely to make the same mistake.” Japan, he said, would like to see China with a stable Government, but he did not think it was prepared to go the length of trying to supply that government itself.
