BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC. Dec. 19.-Foreign Minis
ter Hachiro Arita today declared the
s25. 100000 loan granted China by
the United States Export Import
Bank would be very dangerous
political gesture
The loan necessarily will lead to
prolongation of the tChinese-Jap-
anese) conflict and naturally tc the
inconvenience OF third powers" !"
Arita asserted at his first press con-
ference since induction into Office
October %.
He termed the loan, granted by
the American Government agency
last week, "an inopportune and re-
grettable act on the part of the
United States which thus far has
acted with understanding
IF. as the United States press re-
ports, it is political gesture on the
part of the United States against
Japan. I think that would be a very
dangerous political gesture" the for
elgn minister asserted.
Japan may regard the loan as
really intended as form of eco
homie pressure by a powerful eco
nomic unit. It would prove quite
contrary to what is expected by the
United States"
In response to question. however.
Arita said he was rather inclined
not to regard it as political
gesture But he asserted that at
least the japanese people undoubt-
edly will find in it new grounds for
Strengthening the proposed new
order in East Asia through which
the Japanese have indicated their
intention of linking Japan. China
and Manchukuo in an economic
and political bloc
Arita declined to comment on the
speech made November % BY 1t.

of war. saying war with Soviet Rus
