EXCITED
OVER TREATY
Some of the Newspapers Do Not
Like the Terms Of the
Pact.

TOXIC, July 17.-Charging that it
completely isolates Japan and that
the United States has gained decid-
ed advantage as a result, several
Toxic newspapers today continued
their strong condemnation of the re-
vised Anglo-Japanese treaty. In elm
mating England as hostile factor in
the event of war between Japan and
the U. s., the latter so the papers de
clare, has outplayed Japanese diplo-
mats.
Government and conservative org.
ans continue to look upon the new
treaty with satisfaction. In many
places, however, the question is ask
ed. "Will Japan enter upon great
er naval and military policy as re
suit of this isolation?'
