TOKYO, Jan. 19.

THE BRITISH NOTE to Japan, which was handed by the British Ambassador, Sir Robert Craigie, to the Foreign Minister, Mr. Nachiro Arita, on January 14, has an entirely different significance from the American note, although both refer to Japan's policies towards China.

This warning was issued to-day by Renzo Adachi, president of the "Kokumin Domei (National League)", a minority party in the Lower House, at the Party's convention.
