"A CHIMERA"
JAPAN’S NEED TO EXPAND. • ADMIRAL’S DECLARATION. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. (Received January 23, 8 p.mi) MELBOURNE, January 23.

The necessity for Japan’s expansion outside her own limits, owing to her continually-increasing population, was rather a chimera than a fact. The more thinly-populated portions of Ja-> pan and many islands around would hold the surplus population for a hundred years or more. There was also Korea and other places for expansion.
