The poin! is that he is supposed to represent the official intention "to escure important concessions in the Yangleze Valley," whoreas he is only a freelance. But his visit may be the more dangerous on that very account. If the Baron's visit is all square and above-board there is no need whatever for him to indulge in a quibble of this kind. We have no great fear of his accomplishing anything of material advantage to Japan. After the reply given to the Chinese Ambas nador recently, when he asked for oil concessions to Japan, it is... fairly clear that concessions to Japan are not to be too readily granted. But it would do no harm if Britain kept ap open eye on the Baron, all the same. There has been quite sufficient careless- ness or aloofness on the part of Britain in the Yangtze Valley in the past Only the other day it was alleged that a strong move was on foot to secure Japanese control of the China Merchants Company. The statement was denied, of course, but it would be well if attention were paid to these rumoure while they are still rumours.
