London, Nov. 15.

The recent wave of rumours, denied by Mr. Ramsay MacDonald, Prime Minister of Great Britain, which sug- gested that there was a certain amount of Anglo- Japanese political and economic activity parallelling the naval conversations, has caused China some concern.

On Thursday the Chinese Minister to London, Mr. Quo Tai-chi, visited the Foreign Office and inquired as to the truth of the reports that Japan and Britain were engaged in some: sort of political and economic conversations by which each hoped to benefit.

It is understood that the reports which the Minister sought enlightenment ranged from the allegod Anglo-Japane v pulitical conversations to ine question of British loans to Japan.

In the former matter it had been voiced abroad that Japan was aim. ing at securing recognition of certain special interests in China and her special position in the Pacific. For this recognition Japan is alleged to have onered a promise not to encroach upon British Internets in China and thei Pacific.

Mr. Quo Tai-chi also wanted to know whether Japan had approach. ed Britain in the matter of future loans to Japan and Manchukuo,

London, Nov. 15.

There is every hope now that the British plan for a gentlemen's agreement between the principal naval powers, which will obviate the necessity of altering the present 5-5-3 ratios, will be accepted by Japan. In that event it is very likely that the United States will also accept the British scheme, and a long step will have been taken towards an understanding at the 1935 Naval Con. ference.

An authoritative British source states that at the commencement of the naval conversations in London Japan communicated to Great, Britain the desire to main- tain the friendliest Anglo, 1 Japanese relations, whereupon Great Britain requested the Tokyo Government to elucidate.
