THE JAPANESE ALLIANCE.
HAMPERING BRITAIN. AN AMERICAN PRESS STATEMENT. Received March 31, 7.45 p.m. New York, March 22. The Chicago Tribune's Paris correspondent says it is believed that Japan is aggrieved because of the probable loss of Kiaochau and the failure of its initial effort to secure freedom for Japanese emigration to the United States. Australia, Canada and Britain support President Wilson against Japan on the question of immigration. The correspondent says that, apparently, Britain is finding the Japanese alliance irksome. Britain welcomes the League of Nations covenant as abrogating existing treaties and alliances, allow T ing England to part company with Japan amicably, and strengthening the bonds of the Empire. It is no seeret that Australia has been regarding the AngloJapanese alliance with increasing anxiety, and England realises that her Japanese alliance hampers the establishment of closer relations with the United States. —United Preas.
