EMPIRE SECURITY
Sir M. Hankey’s Mission
The “Sun” news service says it understands that Anglo-Japanese relations will be one of the chief subjects which Sir Maurice Hankey. Secretary of tho Imperial Defence Committee, will discuss in Australia. Sir Maurice fakes no specific brief on (he subject but the British Govern merit and the Imperial Defence Com mittee are anxious to have a clear understanding on tho Empire’s policy, ’not merely in readiness for the 19.h> naval conference, but also in view of the great changes which have recently occurred in the Far East. There seems to be no question at present of reviving the Anglo-Japanese alliance, but Britain desires a gesture of Anglo-Japanese understanding, and considers that there must be a rapprochement, in spirit if not in name.
