NO NEED TO WORRY
ABOUT JAPANESE RELATIONS WITH SOVIET ACCORDING TO AMBASSADOR. HOPES OF FORESTALLING U.S.A. AND BRITAIN. (British Official Wireless.) TOKIO, October 15. The Hsinking correspondent of the “Asahi Shimbun’’ reports that the new Ambassador, Mr Tatekawa, who left for Moscow said, “Japan does not need to worry about the reported British and American overtures to the Soviet for a rapprochement.” He claimed it was a wiser policy for the Soviet to be friendly with neighbouring Japan than “shake hands with distant America.” The Soviet, undoubtedly, was aware that it could not ignore Japan's naval strength, and that it was also difficult to continue trade with America without previously securing Japanese-So-viet relations. Mr. Tatekawa added that he .would I start his negotiations with the Soviet Union with a clean slate and was not i taking over where the former Ambassador left off.
