LAPS ARE ANXIOUS T0
 GREET GENERAL WOOD
Beiksye, Heart to Heart Talk WiE Serve to Improve Relations
 With America

With America
 rolrjo, April 27.--Japanese appar- entay expect much from the visit of General Wood who will come to Japan after coscluding his visit to the Phil hppine islands.
 It is believed that. she nature of his mission to the Far East will permit discnssion of various matters of mutual interest to Japan and the United States.
 In voicing the nations welcome to General Wood, the conservative Japa- nese weekly, the Herald of Asia" 1" thinks the visit may be productive of highly beneficial results. The journal continues:
 While we stoutly refuse to share alarmist views over relations with the United States, we cannot shut our eyes to the fact that the situation is not altogether without cause for anx- iety. Thanks to 2 persistent propa- ganda to create trouble, the poison of mutual suspicion seriously inter feres with the natural growth of friendship between the two nations A frank heart rt-to-heart talk has never been more needed than at the | present moment, the visit to this coun- ] try of man of General Woods stand ing and influence at a juncture like this is peculiarly opportune."
