The Position in China. No lossa personage than Count Okuma, the Head of the JapanesÐ Government, has even gone en.. far as to suggest an Economic Alliance between Great Britain and Japan for the purpose of exploiting the Yangtze Vall and oneof Japan's most prominent baúiness men, Bardu Shibusays, is at this moment in Peking endeavouring to secure industrial concessions in the Yangtzs Valley. The Foreign Office, in |viewing the position, in. Chiga. with too muok complaisance. AH the Report of the Committee of the China Association points out, mileage of the railway con essions anandue proportion". E the

granted by the Chinese Govern- · ment within the past six montbe have gone to foreign syndicates. It may be that "there is still-- mple scope for any number of Southern Provinces-enoogh : to lines in the Yangtsz and keep English engineers and manufacturera employed for the next twenty years "but the paint which it seems desirable to emphasise is that other people are oking out for these oprer unities, and the danger in that having the financial backing of the Govern ments they may escure all the concessions which are likely to prove most remunerat've."
