JAPAN.
MILITARY DEFENCE. NATIONALS CALLED HOME. (By Cable—Press Association —Copyright.) (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) WASHINGTON, April 19Official circles have been warned that all Japanese between the ages of 21 and 37 years without previous service have been ordered to return to Japan for military training from the Philippines, the East Indies, and the South Sea Islands. Officials point out that the order indicates a general inclination by Japan since the war to adopt more rigorous methods to place herself in a state of military and naval defence. Hitherto Japan allowed considerable laxity in enforcing the law providing for military training for her subjects abroad.
SOVIET OVEETUEES. WASHINGTON, April 19. Government officials have been advised that the Far Eastern republic of Chita has received from the Bolshevik Government orders to avoid a conflict with the Japanese and to negotiate a trade treaty with the latter if possible.
