FRENCH SHIPOWNER'S

"SUGGESTIONS.

JOINT EUROPEAN ACTION,

The chairman of the Mes sageries: Maritimes, Mr. Georges Philippar, and a member of the French Academy of Marine, in an interesting speech on Far Eastern problems before the France-Amerique dealt with the political and trade relations existing between France and these countries, and made suggestions concerning the gen- eral policy to be followed by the French Government towards the

He set forth the importance of the new state of things introduced in the Far East on the expiration of the Anglo- Japanese Alliance in 1923, point- ing out that the development of Japan had far-reaching conse- racequences, as now other Asiatic Ipeoples had also entered the way of nationalism. In this connec- tion Mr. Philippar's opinion is that the white race nations with: interests in the Far East should unite their efforts to counter- balance, this pan-Asiatic move.
