An important prom Japan's foreign

policy, by Mr. Koki

marked the opening of the new session of the Diet to-day.

Mr. Hirota reviewed at some length the un- satisfactory relations between Japan and China

and Japan and the Soviet and insisted that Japan

was actuated entirely by a spirit of fairness.

Referring to suggestions that China was pursuing a more favourable policy towards Japan, he declared that the Tokyo Government had failed to observe it.

An amendment is being proposed to President Roose- volt's Monetary Bill which will provide for the re monetisation of silver.

Details are not disclosed concern- ing the form of remonetisation planned, but it is significant, that the announcement of the proposed amendment was made by Senator Wheeler following a conference at the White House with President Roosevelt.

The assumption, therefore, is that the amendment has the ap proval of the President and that it will be included in the Monetary Bill without opposition..
