Pro-British Style Policy
RESIGNATION OF FOREIGN MINISTER
TOKYO, Oct. 3.
ล

foreign policy would not be altered as result of General Ugaki's resignation, the Tokyo Hochi gives prominence to a story alloging that the resignation marks the beginning of a remark- able now stage in Japanes diplomacy, in which the pro-British policy will be broken once and for all.
The article says that a "forceful Chinese policy will. also be translated into action, while efforts will be made to further strengthen the Rome-Berlin-Tokyo axis."
The writer states that with this end in view the Premier will choose either M. Matsuoka or Mr. Shiratori as Ambassador-designate to Rome.-Reuter.
