Dr. C. W.

The secret service funds of the Tokio. Foreign Office have beea greatly increased and most of the money is to be used for the purpose of political propaganda. A Foreign Office official, in an interview with the Fomiuri, says:- A new bureau for propaganda will be established in the Foreign Office and Mr. Ijjuin. Japanese Ambassador to Italy, will be appointed its head and most probably Mr. Ariyoshi, formerly Consul-General at Shanghai, will be made vice-chief.
