BRITAIN AND JAPAN.
[ AUSTRALIA’S FEARS. ANTI-JAPANESE SENTIMENT. [■ United Press Association, Copyßionx (Received Sept. 4, 9.15 p.m.) LONDON, Sept. 4. The “Westminster Gazette” says | that while' Australia welcomes the white fleet, it sympathises with American difficulties on the Pacific coast and shares the desire to exclude Asij: atics and aliens. Australia knows that the Imperial Government must |y act as trustees for the empire, but however much she dislikes the Japa- | j neso alliance on sentimental grounds, Australia cannot say she is injured. IS Japan also knows that a British cof; - lony, vide South Africa, has the fu-Il-*:r;‘ •. rights to exclude foreigners and British subjects. ' new york, sept. 4. I - The “Evening Post” (New Yoi'k) doubts whether the anti-Japanese feeling in Australasia is permanent or fey' sincero, and whether the obvious dift - ficnlties of a» Japanese attack upon jfe her coasts will not ultimately dispel ppy- Australia’s fears.
