EAGERNESS OF SOVIET
POLITICAL SETTLEMENT TALKS WITH JAPAN CHINA AN OBSTACLE (Reed. Nov. 21, 2 p.m.) NEW YORK, Nov. 20. The Moscow correspondent of the New York Times reports that unusual prominence has. been given to the intrinsically unimportant RussianJapanese developments. “This shows the Soviet’s eagerness for a general Russian-Japanese political settlement," states the correspondent. “Japanese circles are definite that the Soviet has not suggested a non-aggression pact and that other political considerations are behind all the recent talks. The Japanese belief is that the Soviet cannot afford to abandon the Chinese and this is an obstacle to a general settlement.” The correspondent adds that while it would be helpful if both parties could regularise their commercial relations, it is unlikely that important exchanges of goods will result.
