TOKYO, Aug. II. That Japan
hopes to be the dominant factor IN
the economic rehabilitation Of Rus
STA and will bend all her energies
toward the accomplishment Of that
object, was strongly intimated BY
Tokichi Tanaka. the new Japanese
Ambassador to Moscow, in ian adj
dress here on the eve of his de.
parture for this new post.
Ambassador Tanaka made it
plain that he considers Russia q
legitimate and foremost field for
Japan's economic expansion.
"A simple consideration Of the
possibilities for development makes
clear the immense Importance of
increasing the economic ties be-
tween Japan and Russia," Ambas-
sador Tanaka said, in an address
before the Pan-Pacific Club Of
Tokyo AT the moment our COM

Ambassador Tanaka indicated that

ing. Under the economic policy
which seem to be developing In
Russia, it may be possible for
japanese capital, to be employed to
the very great benefit OF both Rus.

further possibility. Inasmuch as
we have in Japan enough men Of

it should prove that the extent Of

with Japan's credit relations with
other nations, we might easily at

In other words. Japan might be.
