Tokyo, Sept. 18.
The Soviet-Japanese truce agree. tive ment has nothing to do with European situation nor has it been concluded through German mediation, declared the spokesman of the Foreign Oflee this morning. It was hoped that the agreement would have

The
spokesman declared that there had been no talk of a non-aggression pact. Japan was not entertaining any such ideas at present.
He pointed out that Japan's polley of non-intervention in the European war as announced by the Government 4, remained intact. on September 4,
