SOVIET AGAIN IMPUTES ULTERIOR MOTIVES TO U.S.A. IN JAPAN
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17 (flee. 6 p.m.)—The Soviet Ambassador, Mr. Alexander Panyushkin, today renewed a demand that the Far Eastern Commission review American efforts to restore Japan’s economy and asked the commission to make its own decision.
Mr. Panyushkin said the aim of the American nine-point directive to the Japanese, issued on December 10, was to subject Japanese economy to the interests of American monopolistic groups at the expense of Japan’s economic independence. “The United States is pursuing * policy of its own directed towards the preservation and strengthening of large Japanese concerns which played a great part in the aggression carried out by the Japanese militarists,” he said.
The American representative on the F.E.C. denied that the directive to Japan violated “the regime of control,” adding that United States authority to take unilateral action on matters of urgency was clearly recognised by F.E.C.
