Japan Will Retaliate Economically
(Received 11 a.m.)
TOKIO, January 11. .
“Japan will retaliate effectively against any economic measures by Britain and America against Japan,” declares the “Nichi Nichi Shimbun,” which quotes the Foreign Minister, Mr Arita, as saying: “Britain and America should be most careful against exerting economic pressure on Japan, since they must realise the ex'tent of the retaliatory measures that can be taken by Japan against their interests in China.”
Other newspapers print similar reports, some asserting that Mr Arita will tell the United States that Japan is determined to establish a bloc comprising China, .Japan and MJanchukuo, capable of reconstructing East Asia.
