Tokyo, July 25.

The Premier, Prince Ayamaro Konoye, returned to Tokyo this morning from Karuizawa, the famous mountain resort, where he has been spending the week- end together with the Minister of Public Welfare, Marquis Koichi Kido.

All Japanese newspapers this morning report under banner headlines and extending from five to seven columns that the Premier has apparently mapped out concrete plans for coping with current difficulties.

The Nichi Nichi Shimbun, leading daily, reports that the Premier's plan consists of four points, firstly, fundamental reform of administrative organs, including the Cabinet system; secondly, readjustment of Japan- Soviet relations, with the Manchukuo border problems constituting the centre; thirdly, readjustment of Anglo- Japanese relations, with the China problem constituting
