JAPAN AND EOAN PROPOSAL

It is quite expected that Japan will be readier to enter into discus- sions with Britain on a somewhat different basis than to contemplate the question of an international loan. In view of the Japanese. claim to a dominant position in China, reports from Tokyo during the past week suggest that the joint loan proposal will be unwel- come, and that Japan will prefer to enter into a bargain with Britain

exchange for the removal-of-ob- stacles to Japanese trade in the British colonies.

Sir Frederick Leith-Ross's mis- son, however, is confined to the obtaining of information, and no decisions will, of course, be taken until he has reported to London

The most dramatic diary in the history of aviation has just been made public here;

It was written by M. Vanlang- len, the, Dutch Journalist, while the giant Douglas Royal Dutch | air liner, with. 12 others, was hurt-

|ling through snow and rain to its doom in the Swiss Alps on July 20.

In this crash two Britons

| Cmdr. Arthur J. Watts, D.S.O., and Mr. L. M. Nesbitt, the explorer and author-were among the killed.

The liner was flying from Milan, 1) Amsterdam, and the diary opens with this entry:

"We have just taken off from Milan, and soon we will cross the Alps." Then comes the for lowing:

"Over the Alps. Rain beats down. We can see very little below. Our height is now 12,000ft. "We are climbing hard to try ar get above these storm clouds
