TOKYO TO IGNORE NANKING

Readjustment Talks Only With Peiping

Says Konoye

Tokyo, Jan. 10. Prince Konoye, Prime Minister of Jupan, in an interview yesterday with Japanese reporters sald that Japan would not deal with Nonking as a party to projected talks for the read- Justment of mutual relations between China and Japan. However Japan would deal with Peiping.

Ho sald that Peiping would possibly undergo processes similar to those of the Manchukuo organisation period, but it will be different when the Government is firmly established. In this connection Japan would assist in hastening its growth.

New York, NY., Dec.'.. "I'm going to any outright now something I've only hinted at before. I beat the negro fair and square, and in his heart he knows I Under equal conditions that night Joe Louis would be no champion to-day."

That is Tommy Farr's reply, con- tained in a letter to Dan Parker of the New York Daily Mirror, to Joe Louts's rmark in, a Liberty Maga- zine article that the British and

to recognise the Pelping regime. However they expected the regime to co-operate with Japan in the promotion of pence and culture, and salu he did not baleve Pelping would become the Central Government of China without a change, but that "will etriainly become the mainstay of the various regimes which emerge in various paris of the country."

Prince Konaye said the matter of merging Peiping and Nanking was a matter between those governments, and Japan would not interfere with it.

The Premier declined to comment on whether the new regime would be completely established in six months and sald a further study was neces- sary before a decision regarding the "creation of a Presidency in the New Government, and also the amalgama-

"In spite of Louis's unquestioned boxing brilliance," Farr's letter con- tinues, "I say he has one vital de- feet in his fighting make-up. He does not punch with his left, but rather does he flick with an open glove. This, of course, is against all the rules of boxing and no punch so delivered should count."
