FAR FROM SETTLED.
ATTITUDE TO INCIDENT. Received February 1, 8.5 a.m. TOKIO, Jan. 31. The Foreign Office has published a statement regretting and apologising for the soldiers’ assault on Mr Allison and promising that the men responsible will be punished. It adds that whatever the circumstances of the incident the slapping of the face of the American. ' was extremely unfortunate. It is understood that the United States Embassy regards the matter as far from settled, although the Japanese watered down the charge against Mr Allison from insolence to “cold” official attitude.
