SOVIET RELIEF DECLINED BY JAPAN.
ALLEGED ULTERIOR 'MOTIVES. Washington, September lf>. The Japanese Embassy stated that the Home Government has rejected Soviet relief, barring the >1 earner Lenin from Yokohama on September 12, because the relief was allegedly intended only for labourers and because the authorities
suspected the presence of Communistic literature aboard, supposedly concealed among the relief supplier. The Japanese declared they were constrained to refuse this relief because they believed the Soviet relief mission regarded the disaster as a providential opportunity for the furtherance of the revolutionary movement.
