AMITY WITH BRITAIN.
PRINCE IvONOYE’S APPEAL. LONDON, Auc:. 24. Tlie Premier (Prince Konoye), in fin article in the Statist’s Japanese supplement, said: “I am sure if a handful of statesmen come forward in both Japan and England with uncircumscribed powers it will not be difficult to rectify past miscalculations and arrange for the common interests of the two nations to be crystallised into some new, concrete and friendly co-operation.' A new and better order would lie ushered in with the elimination of the differences which have arisen in connection with the deplorable China emergency. “Japan and England should have co-operated in the face of the pressing menace of international Bolshevism, but unfortunately Japan rejected British co-operation made on the eve of the Nanking incident, while various Japanese proposals for the continuation of the Anglo-Japancse Alliance in spirit fell on deaf ears in Britain.”
