Foreign Office through the British AM
basador at Paris within few days.
Baron HGyashi, the Japanese Min
lister. informed the Associated Press
that from what he had seen in the
papers he believed the Russian war
ships were not observing French
neutrality. He added that it was not

the Russian squadron making a base

had refused to allow press dispatches
to be sent from Saigon and said he
