SETTLEMENT OF “CHINA AFFAIR” DECLARATIONS BY PREMIER. REGARDED AS SIGNIFICANT. (By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) NEW YORK, October 20. The “New York Times” published a Tokio dispatch from its correspondent, Mr Otto Tolischus, saying that in two declarations today, the Premier, General Tojo, significantly emphasised the necessity for settling the China affair. It is also noteworthy that in referring to this policy he added the phrase “as laid down,” but whether he had in mind previous declarations that the incident can only be settled by crushing General Chiang Kai-shek by military force and promoting the Nanking regime, or some other unrevealed instructions is a matter for speculation. There is a disposition in the Press today to drop the word “greater” in reference to the co-prosperity sphere. The papers speak only of the East Asia prosperity sphere, centring round China and Manchukuo.
