THE FAR EAST
4 SOME READJUSTMENTS ANTICIPATED IN BRITISH DIPLOMATIC ARRANGEMENTS. POSITION OF DOMINIONS. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) SINGAPORE, September 30. The possibility of far-reaching readjustments in British and Dominion diplomatic arrangements in the Far East is visualised here. This view is based on a number of factors including the wide scope of talks conducted by Mr Duff Cooper, the fact that the Australian Minister to Japan, Sir John Latfiam, will call at Singapore on his journey back'to Australia, together with the appointment of the Netherlands Consul-General to Australia, Mr T. Elink Schuurman, as the first Netherlands Minister to Australia.
The Japanese news agency here, when announcing Sir John Latham’s departure from Yokohama and his intention to call at Singapore, described the visit as “significant” and also referred to the presence here of the British envoys to China and Thailand. Authoritative circles in Singapore, however, deny that there is special significance associated with Sir John Latham’s proposed visit.
