Nomura's Plans For Pacifying Tokyo-Washington Relations

Special to the "Telegraph"

TOKYO, Jan, 23 (UP)--The departure of Ambassador Nomura for America is coincident with revelations by "United Press" of a three-point programme by which efforts will be made to improve Japanese-American relations after his arrival in Washington.

Well-informed Japanese sources told “United Press" firstly, Japanese diplomacy centres on the tripartite pact; secondly, Japanese diplomacy would insist on United States recognition of Japan as the stabilising factor in the Far East; and thirdly, Japan is willing to make vigorous efforts consistent with the two foregoing principles to improve relations with the United States.
