With China And Japan UNITED STATES AND BRITAIN OUSTED BY SKILFUL DIPLOMACY

By HENRY WOOD,

San Francisco, May 1. Germany is rapidly regaining the trade and economic supro- macy in China, Japan and the Far East, which sho lost during the world war, according to a survey by the instituto of Pacific Rela- tions.

By adroitly dropping the mailed-fist tactics that she employed before the war and inaugurating an era of skilfull and friendly negotiations, the survey finds that Nazi Germany la re- establishing hur trade relations in the Far East and entrenching herself there economically on a sound and probably permanent basis.

The two countries most calculated to suffer from Nazi Germany's new policy in China and Japan, according to the survey, are the United States and Great Britain, There is every indication that Germany will succeed in wresting away a sizeable portion of British and American trade in the Orient.

The institute has established that German policy in the Far East has changed to such an extent from that before the war that the Third Reich has now become more and more careful to avoid giving offence to the National feelings of the various countries concerned.

NEW PRAYER BOOK ERROR OMISSION IN PART OF CHEAP EDITION

The omission of a complete line of five words from the prayer for the King in a copy of the 2s. 6d. edition of the new Prayer Book has been discovered by a-Leeds woman.

The attention of the publishers, Messrs. Eyre and Spottiswoode, was called to the error by the bookseller who sold the copy to the woman.

The publishers, however, had no- ticed the omission themselves before more than a limited number of copies had left their hands.

સ

The error appears on page. 07 of the cheap edition, but not in the more expensive editions,

It is in the section of the prayer for the King, which reads: "Most heartily we beseech Thee with. Thy favour to behold our most gracious sovereign Lord King George In part of the cheap edition this reads: Most heartily we beseech Thee with Thy gracious sovereign Lord King George." missing out the words, ""fa- vour to behold our mast.”
