Cordell Hull indicated clear

a satisfactory settlement of
political differences between the
United States and Japan before any
new treaty is negotiated to replace
the abrogated commercial pact of
1911.
Hull notified Japan yesterday OF
abrogation of the commercial treaty,
effective six months hence-a move
that would leave the United States
free to impose economic reprisals
against Japan for repeated treaty
violations.
Developments today included.

would study the future status Of

Japanese sources denied the reports.
The Japanese reverses were re-
ported to have come when a regi-
ment attempted an encircling move-
ment against the Soviet-supported
forces similar to the tactics recent-
ly used in the China war. The
movement, however, was said to
nave run into a powerful Soviet
concentration which opened up q
bombardment with artillery that
out-ranged the japanese guns.
Japanese hurried heavier guns
to the front and attempted to take
the offensive, the advices said, but
thanking attack failed and inn
paired she offensive.

According to British officials, the

Japan but they have to be applied
equally to the same categories OF
goods from other countries.
The tendency of British policy in
