CopyrTgDt) LONDON, Sept. 28 The Japanese Foreign Minister, Mr Matsuoka, and the Foreign Office spokesman, Mr Suma, both said that the new alliance with the Axis Powers did not mean Japan’s early entrance into the European war. Mr Matsuoka said: “ Japan will not challenge any country. Although we adhere to peaceful means as much as possible there might arise a circumstance where we would have to make important decisions.”
Mr Suma said: “We are not going to take part in the European war at this moment. This is a pact to end wars, not to start them.”
