VIEWS ON Brussels
FI
CONFERENCE
London, OL 23.
"In all the circumstances i cannot be said that the outlook for the Brussels Conference is particu- larly hopeful," says "The Times'at the conclusion of a leading article this morning analys ng the pros-' pects of operations in China.
Japan says the journal has in- dicated in advance the resentment and distrust with, which she views outside attempts at mediation.
China has waged the struggle for existence with "considerable suc- cess, and neither the temper of the people nor the considered policy of the Government at present wi tolerate for a moment the idea c peace save on terms wholly unae- ceptable to Japan.
It is, therefore, folly to expect from the Conference a magica! formula to separate the combat- ants as pepper breaks up î dog fight.
ECONOMIC PRESSURE Nevertheless, much can be done at Brussels, as proposals for peace- ful settlement though they cannot be entertained by the telligerents now may one day serve as a pre- text for a basts of compromise.
The evolutior. of wär-proof mean of applying economic pres- sure is conceivable but is most un likely.
"The Times" hopes that nobody at Brussels will indulge in long- range recriminations against Japan which cannot be supported by ac- tion, because a plethora of dog- matic condemnat'ons will enable Tokyo to persuade the Japanese Signal at 12 pm 12.10 p.m.-A people that Japan is being malign- Religious Service (Roman Catho-ed and misunderstood.

fishing junts attacked testified that the lunks were equipped with old style cannon.
"We have never heard of a figh ing boat with such armaments." he said, "and the Chinese testi- mony therefore must be taken as a.confession that the allegedly at tacked junks were pirate' junks. which infest the neighbourhood of Blas Bay."
.
He points out that the Honr Kong Government in 1926 revised the pirate law for the purpose of strengthening control over Blas Bay pirates, without satisfactory control, therefore "In September 1927
Britain proposed to the Powers a joint; expedition against pirates, but the United States, France and Italy refused. There fore Britain decided to negotiate with Japan for joint action. Ax understanding was reached, be- tween the naval · commander, in Hong Kong and the Captain of the Japanese patrol ship Qji" at Canton to watch over Bias · Bay until January 1028.
The spokesman recalled that i 1023 and 1924 the Canton authorl- tles unsuccessfully sent an expedi- tion against pirates and Britain iv, April 1927 sent four warships and the aircraft carrier Hermes to Biar Bay and destroyed 110 houses Lor 50 junks: In Beptember 1928, sim- larly they landed 500 marinci against pirates.
These facts should serve to make clear the circumstances sur- tounding the action taken by the Japanese navy against pirates dur fng the past weeks," he declared.-- Beuter
