CONQUEST NOT INTENDED LESSON FROM GERMANY (Per Press Association.) DUNEDIN, this day. Dr. Fong See’s statement that Japan was ambitious to overcome China and the world was submitted to Mr. Kawamura, manager for Australia and New Zealand of a Japanese firm. He expressed deep sorrow that the representative of a nation which included many good friends of his should have committed himself to such an announcement. “Anyone with ordinary common sense will know whether the statement is right or not. Japan learned her lesson from Germany’s failure, and is not likely to make the same mistake,” lie said. Japan, he said, would like to see China with a stable government, but he did rtdt think it was prepared to go the length of trying to supply that government itself.
