JAPAN HAS NO DESIRE
TO SHUT OUT AMERICA
Toxic Press Pleased With Unbiased
Views Of Ebert n. Gary on
Chinese Situation.

TOXIC. September 7.-Expressions
of satisfaction and appreciation re-
garding the speech of Elbert n.
Gary Tuesday night are voiced by the
press.
1t is evident here that Japan is deep
ly interested in the nature of the
United States general policy toward
China. more particularly whether the
government would support the part1ci-
patton of American capitalists in the
f1ve-powers reorganization loan. Toxic
has the impression that Washington
is undecided.
The Times hopes that the fair and i'm
partial view that Mr.. Gary forms of
the Chinese question will constitute an
important souvenir for him to take
home from the orient.
The newspaper fears the existence of
efforts to convince Americans that the
United States has an enemy In Japan
regarding China, with Japan deter
mined to thwart American enterprises.
1t declares that Japan is in a special
and incompatible position regarding
China. but insists that there Is no de-
sire to shut out America.
There is no reason why both nations
cannot Cooperate" the Times asserts.
