TOKIO AND BERLIN
STRAINED RELATIONS GERMANY’S ECONOMIC NEEDS
IBy Tciejrraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Recd. 6.5 p.m.) London, Jan. 26. Recent diplomatic changes indicate that relations between Tokio and Berlin are becoming increasingly strained. Germany is losing face after her defeats in Russia, says the correspondent of the Daily Telegraph. Germany is now reduced to enticing rather than comanding Tokio to adhere to the original terms of the Tripartite Pact. An addendum to the Tripartite Pact which was signed recently is aimed at linking up their economies and providing for the exchange of valuable war commodities. The German and Italian propaganda is not 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.
