DISSENSION IN CHINA
CHARGES AGAINST JAPAN REPLIED TO
ABSOLUTE NEUTRALITY
MAINTAINED
By Telegraph—Press Association-Copyright New York, September i.' The Peking correspondent of the "New York Times interviewed the Japaneso Minister, Mr, Obata, who said the chargo that Japan cherished a desire io keep China in constant turmoil in pr'der to secure the lion's share of tho spoils was preposterous. Japan, he said, suffered most from tho endless internal dissention in China. It had been the historic policy of Japan that peace in the FarEast should be placed on a secure basis, and that China would obtain prosperity as a united nation. It was for that reason that Japan had maintained absolute neutrality in Ihe recent difficulties in China, and had not at any time lent money to any Chinese faction. Chinese politicians were prone to spread false charges against Japan. The salvation of China could come only through reorganisation, of the Government and industry by the concert of interested Powers. -Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
