BRITISH COMMENT
ARGUMENTS DIFFICULT TO FOLLOW (British Official Wireless] RUGBY, 21st January. Mr Arita's statement in the Diet on the aims of Japan in China has been read with great interest in London and will be the subject of a careful study. In the meantime, well-informed British commentators confess to finding some of Mr Arita’s arguments difficult to follow. It is asked, for example, how the outside world is to reconcile Mr Arita* claim that Chinese independence will be fully preserved with the present policy of the Japanese Government, which, as seen from London, clearly has the military domination of China as its aim.

The “Daily Herald” says that arrangements are being completed for a loan of £3,000.000 by Britain to China to support China’s currency and for the stabilisation of her exchange. A British Official Wireless message states that, regarding reports in London to the effect that a large loan is contemplated for the support of the Chinese currency, the only statement to be obtained from official quarters is that the question of financial assistance by the British Government to China is under careful consideration.
