The announcement is made that the British Cabinet has revived the question of the construction of the Singapore Base, which nearly every paper regards as inevitable, The “Asahi," while expressing the opinion that construction of the base may lose much of its former significance; in view of the 135, probability of a second disarma- Lechment conference, declares that if Irre- the base at Singapore is construct- ed it is bound to complicate the situation in the Far East, as Japan would be compelled to join to such conference with a reserva- tion.
