ARMISTICE REACHED RUSSIA AND JAPAN DIPLOMATIC MOVES (Elec. Tel. Copyright—United Press Assn.) (Reed. Sept. IG. 2 p.m.) MOSCOW, Sept. 13. Russia and Japan have reached an armistice in their undeclared war on the Mongolian-Manchukuoan borders. The Foreign Minister, M. Molotov, and Mr. Togo, the Japanese Ambassador, agreed on the immediate cessation oC hostilities. A meeting will be held to-morrow, after which a communique will be issued. Only meagre details of the conference are available, but observers express the opinion that the -signing of a non-aggression pact would be considered as a diplomatic triumph for Herr Hitler, who had worked constantly to stave off British efforts for an understanding with Japan.
