JAPAN’S AIMS. “REDISTRIBUTION OF RESOURCES.” TOKIO, Jan. 11. The Asahi prints a description by its managing-director, Mr Bunshiro Suzuki, wno recently visited Australia, of an animatedj but friendly, discussion of the redistribution of material resources with Lieutenant-Colonel W. R. Hodgson, Secretary of the Australian Department of External Affairs. Lieutenant-Colonel Hodgson, Mr Suzuki says, disagreed with the statertient by the Japanese Premier (Prince Konoye) to the foreign journalists’ corps, that international justice required' a re-adjustment of the world’s status quo. Mr Suzuki adds: “A Japanese must disguise himself to avoid bodily harm when he visits a Chinese restaurant in . Melbourne.” There has been a misapprehension, because Prince Konoye. as Premier, has never interviewed the foreign journalists’ corps. However. the sentiment expressed is felt by all Japanese.
