“DIVINE MISSION”
JAPAN’S SOUTHWARD GRAB VIEWS OF THE TOKIO PRESS. OIL SUPPLY PROBLEM. (By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) (Received This Day, 12.30 p.m.) LONDON. July 31. The oil problem dominates the Japanese political scene, according to the “New York Timos” Tokio correspondent. The Commerce Ministry's Fuel Bureau has reported to Cabinet that Japan has enough oil stored for some time, but that if oil supplies are cut off, Japan will have to act with groat determination. The Tokio Press, shaking off restraint, sees Batavia’s action, in conjunction with the assumption by the United Slates of control of the Philippines forces, as part of an encirclement to be met by even more determined efforts to construct a sphere of self-sufl'iciency, enclosing China, IndoChina and Thailand. The construction of such a sphere, the newspapers'state, is Japan’s divine mission.
