FAR EASTERN OPINION
BRITISH NOTE LACKS REALISATION VIEW OF JAPANESE SPOKESMAN it P A —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright! LONDON, 16th January. The correspondent of "The Times" at Tokio says: “The British Note lacks realisation of the present trend of Far Eastern opinion,” said the Foreign Office Spokesman in explaining his perI sonal view only. I Nevertheless, it is the opinion of the ; entire nationalist school that Far Eas|texn affairs must be discussed in the light of China’s defeat and Japan's de- ! termination to create a new order in East Asia. Japan is convinced that she | can meet the wishes of England and America if these are limited to trade investments, but if the aim is the preservation of Chinese integrity, the i “open door.” and other provisions of the Nine-Power Treaty. Japan cannot agree without vitally modifying her declared policy. This no one familiar with Japanese opinion believes possible before Japan has tested the length to which the Anglo-Saxon Powers are prepared to go and the utility of the Tokio-Berl inRome axis.
