CLOSER THAN EVER
BRITISH-THAILAND RELATIONS BROADCAST FROM BANGKOK I (Recd. 7.45 p.m.) London. July 30. I Tile Bangkok radio, in a special broadcast stated that British-Thai- ’ land relations were closer than ever. I The British troop movements in the Far East, quite naturally, are only defensive measures, the broadcast added. Thailand recently signed a non-aggression pact with Britain, who has never been known to break such pacts. Japan lias not threatened Thailand, nor had she reason to do so. If the Japanese wanted to move south, there is no reason to pass across Thailand. That would involve a longer route. Japan is a peaceloving country, desiring to raise the ■ status of the Asiatics and also gain | full independence for all Asiatic coun- | tries.—U.P.A.
