Political rivalries in Japan are always queer, and mostly corrupt. That such intrigues should affect the plain straightforward discus sion of outstanding differences, be- tween Japan, and China is most unfortunate, but they do. To blame Dr. WANG or his Government for being stiff-necked and stubborn in discussing their grievances with and against Japan is to ignore the peculiar provocation they suffer. There is a section of political opinion in Japan which regards compromise, in any dispute ns. humiliating, and it seems the pre- sent political situation in Japan is such that Baron TANAKA cannot face the consequences of an attack on such an issue. Hence it comes about that when Mr. Yosmizawa reaches an agreement with Dr. WANG on a disputed point," the Opposition in Japan has only to raise the cry of "national humilia tion" to induce the Government to repudiats its own representative. It will be remembered that about three weeks ago, when Nanking was hung with Bags in celebration of the introduction of tariff autonomy the spokesman of the Japanese Foreign Office dolefully declared there was no diplomatio victory for Japan to celebrate.
