JAPS IN THE PACIFIC
LOOKING FOR RUBBER PLANTATIONS. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Received 3, 10 p.m. Sydney, August 3. Professor Macmillan Brown, of Christchurch, who was a passenger by the Minindi from the Solomons, stated that it appears to be a fact that within the past few months at least one party of Japanese has visited the islands in a cutter. The explanation that the cutter was blown out of her course is regarded as thin. The general impression is that she was looking for suitable sites for rubber plantations.
