DISARMAMENT.
JAPAN READY TO CURTAIL. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Tokio, Jan. 25. Baron Uchida. replying to interpellations in the Lower House regarding the disarmament proposals, said that the existing German situation was one factor in preventing a complete agreement on the subject of Japan’s naval policy. It was one of expansion, but one that was unavoidable in the interests of selfprotection. However, Japan was ready to consider curtailment in order to ensure a world peace in case any Power made such a proposal. Baron Uchida declared that the inauguration of trade with Russia might be considered after a stable Government had been established at Chita (Siberia). He hoped there, would be an early beginning of direct negotiations with China, relative to the restoration of Shantung. AN AMERICAN MOVE. Washington. Jan. 25. The Senate adopted a resolution directing the Senate Naval Affairs Committee to report whether it is possible for the United States to suspend the naval building programme for six months.
