CHINA AND JAPAN.
FALSE CHARGES ALLEGED JAPAN’S POLICY. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright., Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received September (5. 9 a.m.) PEKIN, September 4. ■ln an interview, the Japanese Minister, Osta, said: “ The charge that Japan is •■cherishing a desire to keep China in constant turmoil, in order to secure tho lion’s share of the spoils, ia preposterous. Japan suffers most from tho endless 'internal dissensions *in China. It lias been Japan’s historic policy that peace in the Far East should ho placed on a secure basis, and that China should thtis maintain prosperity ns a united nation. It wan for that reason that Japan maintained absolute neutrality in the recent difficulties in China, and has not, at any time, lent money to any Chinese faction. Chinese politicians are prone to spread false charges ■ against Japan. The salvation of China can como only through tho reorganisation of the Government and industry, by a concert of interested Powers.”
