Scarcely have Japan's queries as to what is and what is not to be considered been disposed of than a difficulty crops up regarding the intention of the United States Government in reference to the agenda. the latest report being that America proposes to place disarma- ment first when the natural thing would appear to be to first settle the problems of the Far East and the Pacific.
