LOSING FORCE
ANTI-BRITISH FEELING CONDITIONS IN JAPAN (United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright) LONDON. Sept. 3 “ Whatever were its objects, the recent anti-British movement in Japan is losing force.” says the Tokio correspondent of the Times. The anti-British demonstrations, he adds, have stopped like a run-down alarm clock. The Tokio Rotary Club, which includes the biggest business men in Japan, has refused to disband, thus halting the epidemic of panicky dissolutions which had begun to sweep the provincial clubs. The newspaper Mikayo pointed out that it would be foolish if Japanese broke off their contacts with foreigners. It emphasised that there were more Japanese living in the British gmpire than Britons living in Japan.
The Japan Times even declared that many foreign business men were useful to Japan. It expressed the hope that some of the British who are now departing would return under happier conditions.
A British war communique issuet by General Headquarters at Cain today stateo that c.i all fronts then ia nothing of importance to report.
