NAVY SECRETARY IN TOKIO. CO-OPERATION FOR PEACE. Australian and N.Z. Cablo Association. (Reed. 7.5 p.m.) TOKIO. July 4. The Secretary for the United States Navy, Mr. E. Denby, is visiting Japan.. The Prime Minister, Admiral Baron Kato, welcoming him to-day, said: "We are not only willing but'anxious to maintain and develop the unbroken friendship of Japan and the United States. Wo ought to be able, in co-operation with the leading nations of the world, to maintain far into the future the peace that now rests on the seas, and if we succeed in this it must follow that peace on land will be generally preserved." Mr. Denby expressed Amlerica'is indebtedness for the great work done by Japan at the Washington Conference, and his earnest hope and belief that the relative strengths of the navies of Japan and the United States would remain the subject of academic discuiision, and never become a practical question to be settied at the cannon's mouth.
