JAPAN'S FOREIGN POLICY.
STATEMENT BY THE PREMIER. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, Jan. 12. Trie Daily Express' Tokio correspondent interviewed Premier Hara, who considers the hitch regarding Australia and the Pacific Islands is easily adjustable. Japan does not object to Australia receiving the mandate but considers the mandate's tone is unsatisfactory. Japanese traders are at present treated worse .than under German ownership. Japan cannot accept such a position and hopes Britain will secure an amendment. Japan has no territorial ambitions in Siberia, will not take an inch of Russian territory, and will withdraw every soldier the moment the Bolshevik menace is removed. Japan wishes to act in harmony with America and the Entente but cannot permit a Bolshevik danger at her door. Apart from this Japan refuses to embark on extensive military intervention. —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
