NATIONAL ARBITRATION
THE ANGLO-JAPANESE TREATY. (By Telegraph.—Press Association. —Copyright.) LONDON, July 13. Received July 13, 11.0 p.m. The Times states that public Interest is beginning to be roused both in Japan and America by the effect of AngloAmerican arbitration upon the BritishJapanese Alliance. The existing Alliance is Incomparable in form, if not in fact, to any general arbitration treaty between Britain and a third power. It is difficult to modify the Alliance obviating the incongruity without raising the whole question of revision and prolongation. If It be true that Britain has arranged with Japan that clause two shall not apply when either ally is fighting a nation with which the other has concluded an arbitration treaty, the step has been taken without full consultation of Dominion Ministers.
