REVISION OF COMPACT

Anglo Japanese alliance Is resardes
as the inevitable outcome of the An.

is reason TO believe that negotiations
ior such a revision have heen going

that Great Britain proposes 10 modify
the clause providing for mutua! assist
ahce In the event Of war. making the
provision inapplicable In the event
that either party to the alliance g
nghting nation with whom the other
mas concluded a gene-el arbitration
treaty.
1t is understood that Japan readily
aEreed to this proposition. and the AS
ISOLATED Press is informed that the
readiness Of the Japanese government
to accept the suggestion was due -
lis entire confidence that Japan would
never be at war with either the lTni..d
States or England.
The revision probably would Involve
the extension of the term of the treaty
aiiiance for fifteen or twenty years.
