JAPAN AND NAZIS
NEGOTIATIONS CRITICAL BALKANS NEUTRAL BLOC (Reed. Sept. 18, 11 a.m.) NEW YORK, Sept. 16. The New York Times’ correspondent at Rome says that the RussianJapanese agreement is regarded as a step toward returning Japan to the German sphere.
It is considered significant that the Japanese General Terauchi has gone to Berlin to visit the Eastern Front.
It is also suggested that Russia and Turkey are about to conclude a new pact. The British-Turkish negotiations are critical, and Turkey may be lost to the Allies.
Italy is not participating in these negotiations and even her efforts to form a neutral block from the Balkans has not extended to Turkey. Although working hard, Greek diplomacy is directed solely to maintaining her neutrality whatever happens, and whatever demands are made by Italy.
