Japanese Service to Java. It is very remarkable to leaga that the Osaka Shosen Kaisha is openine a new service to Java with s I steamers to take the place of the Dutch vessels recently | requisitioned by the allies. Japan is one of the Allied P wers. Whit benefit to the Allies as s. whole, is conferred by this arran-ement? We fear the announcement will raise still further questi ning in Holland, where it will be regarded as. most unjust that the Allies should commandeer a number of

LAngary-which means to divert the vessels compulsorily from their ori/inal service on the ground of mi itaty recessity and then allow one of their nofaber to place its own steamers on the service thus. suspended. The requisitioned ste-mers of a neutral nation, are, it is understood; to be used for conveying foodstuffs to the European Allies, who are in urgent need of such aid. It might be thought that the tonnage required would be obtained in the first place from am ng the Allies them elves, and only when this source was exhausted would: there be any such thing as requisitioning from neutrals. Where the advantage rests in requisitioning neutral vessela and then replacing the suspended service with Allied vessels it is difficult to understand." Japan Chronicle."
