ANGLO-JAPANESE FRIENDSHIP
STATEMENT BY AMBASSADOR (United Press Association—Tty Electric Telegraph— Copy right) TOKIO, 13th June. Maintenance of the traditional An-glo-Japanese friendship was the watchword given by Mr Shigeru Yoshida, newly-appointed ambassador, before leaving for England. With a view to ending certain misunderstandings, Mr Yoshida, says the newspaper “Ashai Shimbun,” will have conversations with British authorities centring on the “non-existence of Japan’s territorial ambition.” The “Daily Telegraph’s” Tokio correspondent says that Sir Frederick Lcith-Ross, British Economic Adviser, following talks with Japan, says he has been assured that Japan will not interfere in British interests in China, and that Japan desired a better understanding with Britain and a revival of the old friendship.
