WORLD’S PEACE.
TASK FOR THE NATIONS. A CONFERENCE PROPOSED. BRITAIN, AMERICA AND JAPAN. By Telegraph.—-Press Apsn. —Copyright. Received April 26, 10.15 p.m. Washington, April 25. The Chicago Tribune’s Tokio edrrespondent interviewed Baron Sakatani, ex-Minister of Finance, and the present leader of barons in the House of Peers, who said America, Britain and Japan were so friendly that if statesmen of each country sat at a common table, many complications could be avoided. The League of Nations, he said, could not be trusted without America, and the peace of the world was best assured with America’s presence among these three Powers. The occasion of the renewal or revision of the Anglo-’japanese alliance afforded an excellent opportunity for such a conference, and America should be consulted if the alliance is renewed, since it would promote a clear and definite understanding of the reasons for the alliance—the menace of Russia and Germany. These were now gone, and it was therefore no longer necessary to continue the alliance, but if it was renewed America should be consulted as the ’first safeguard of the world’s peace.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
