 Prepare for Future.

London, Oct. 3-The address made in New York last week by Viscount Ishii, head of the Japanese mission, the Times in leading editorial on America and Japan," says is a re- suit "as unforeseen by Germany as it is unwelcome, of years of intrigue on both sides of the Pacific, which she has spent in that vain effort to arouse enmity between the United States and Japan"

:. SHOULD BE SOLD.
Vessels Seized or Captured From Ger
 mans Should Not Be Returned.

1 London, Oct. 3.--vessels captured or , seized by Great Britain from her ene- mics during the war 5'in restitution for the destruction and plunder of the countries and shipping, of the allies. should be sold and the proceeds ap- piled as part of the war indemnity, in the opinion of a committee of Mem- bers of the Chamber of Shipping of the United Kingdom and of the Liver pool Steamship Owners Association. This committee was appointed to as- certain what Great Britain's trade policy should be after the conclusion of the war. They recommend that the funds derived from the sale of enemy vessels taken in war should not be ap- piled to reimburse British shipping owners or underwriters for lost ships but should go to the general indem- nifty fund. .
 The committee asserts that, in de- termining Britian's trade policy.t to be adopted after the war, it should be the first care of the state to do noth- ing to imperil the "pre- eminent posi- tion the United Kingdom holds in the international trade of the world.
 "Our manufacturing power, our
 
 mittee stated have been established for the worlds trade and no smaller field can provide scope for their em- ployment. To maintain that position the nation must with the utmost pos sible speed after peace is restored bring back it's fighting forces into pro- ductive industry, as to re-estab- fish it's manufacturing power and to replace the war wastage in it's ship ping.
 "The ruling principle of our trade policy after the war should consist in the maintenance for each individual citizen of the fullest possible oppor- tunities for the exercise of his ener- gies and enterprise in the markets of the world We are satisfied that so far as shipping is concerned apart from any exceptional case for estab- fishing a new trade, it can only hold it's own in competition with the world free from State control and therefore free from State assistance, and that speaking generally State intervention can most prof1tably be directed and limited to increasing the trading e1fl- ciency of the nation as whole.
