The Local Practice.
Mr. Loseby: You won't admit that it has been the regular, and consistent practice of the Police to arrest people for the purpose of deportation without any roper Aarrant?
Witness: No I won't admit that. It only happens occasionally ?--- Yes,
And when it does happen the

Yes.

Points Emphasised.

They are;

Japan must recognize the Man- chukuo Government, since the Manchukuo is a concrete fact and the Japanese Government is free to acknowledge her as an inde- pendent country; therefore it is the Japanese intention of recogni- tion at the earliest date in order to make permanent peace in the Far East.

Referring to the provisional warrant issued for the arrest of the fugitive on April 1 the witness said that he had ignored it.
Mr. Laseby: In the usual way?---- I ignored it.
In fact, it is not quite true to say you ignored it, only until it was convenient to you?-Until it WAR convenient to me and the prisoner.
Mr. Loseby pointed out that it was about nine weeks after the warrant was issued that the Police actually arrested the fugitive, and asked if the Police kept the war- runt "up their sleeves" for that time.
Witness replied that the fugl- tive's Counsel was aware of the warrant.
Mr. Loseby: Will you tell me why you didn't execute itt- Chiefly as a charge of a similar nature had been preferred against the man and I had no wish to put in to the Magistrate another war- rant of the same nature.
I put it to you that your object in holding this up was to get over the inconvenient section that the Magistrate will discharge the fugl- tive if a requisition did not arrive within reasonable time?--I abo- lutely deny that.
You will admit it may have that effect?--Yea.
The hearing was adjourned until Saturday next.
