TOKIO AND BERLIN
RELATIONS BECOMING MORE STRAINED OUTCOME OF GERMAN REVERSES LONDON, Jan. 26. “The recent diplomatic changes indicate that the relations between Tokio and Berlin are becoming increasingly strained. Germany is losing face after her defeats in Russia,” says the diplomatic correspondent of the Daily Telegraph. “ Germany is now reduced to enticing rather than commanding. Tokio will adhere to the original terms of the Tripartite Pact. “ The addendum to the Tripartite Pact which was signed recently aimed at linking up their economies and providing for an exchange of valuable war commodities. The German and Italian propaganda is npt clashing with this agreement, but it cannot be disguised that Tokio refuses to see the war through German eyes. “Japan is dismayed at Germany’s reverses in Europe and the Middle East, and realises that her Axis partner has little moral support or material supplies to offer.”
