LONDON APPRECIATION
QUEST FOR AGREEMENT
MOVE NO SURPRISE (British Official Wireless.) Reed. 9 a.m. RUGBY. Nov. 21. The report that Japan and the Soviet Union have agreed upon the composition of a frontier commission ■to delimit the border between Outer Mongolia and Manchuria causes no surprise in informed quarters in Britain wl ere is is regarded as natural that tl cy should seek to settle their many i utstanding differences, some of which date back for a number of years.
It is equally comprehensible that, in view of their close proximity, they should seek to reach some agreement on trade which at present is negligible between them.
In the long view of the future, Japan it is believed in Britain, must depend on her ability to trade peacefully with the rest of the world and in this connection it is worth recalling that Japan’s rise to wealth was in a large measure due to her trade with the British Empire and the United States. This trade must always continue to be an important contribution to her material welfare, whatever temporary dislocations may be caused by the world situation.
