FAR EAST WAR NOT INEVITABLE
Frank Statement by Mr Menzies
LONDON, Mar. 3. Mr Menzies, the Australian Premier, Epeaking to-day said that because Japan had made an agreo- ment with the Axis Powers, Australians should not permit themselves willy nilly to drift into an atmosphere in relation to Japan which was at least dubious and might quite frankly be dangerous.
"Do not let us grope around in that kind of fog," he said. “Do not let us become victims of that most pernicious of all habits-the habit of | believing. that a possible confilct becomes inevitable. I do not believe in the inevitability of conflict. I do |believe, except in the case which bas come upon us in Europe, that there is no such thing as the inevitability of conflict or any difficulty which is Incapable of being resolved by cul- Ilvation between nallons of the ut- most frankness.

An Associated Press message from New York states that, in discussion with a diplomat who had talked to Gen. Weygand, sent to North Africa by the Vichy Government, it learned that the general had inten- tionally placed himself in a "trad- Ing" position in Algeria.
His object was that. If the German

chr
Americans had their own ideas and their ideas were not necessarily the same as the Australian:-Their-in terests, too, were not necessarily the some as Australian interests. Fear would never control the foreign policy of Australia.
