"Would Paralyze"

Viscount Shimpei Goto, onetime Mayor of Tokyo, arrived diffidently at Moscow. Cornered by correspondents, he protested: "I came here on no political, economic or indeed any specific mission." Pumped by a U. S. correspondent, he said:

"I. have always opposed the hotheads who claim that the interests of Japan and America are conflicting. The loss of our silk trade with America alone would paralyze Japan. I maintain that the two great Pacific nations must be mutually friendly. The same applies to the Soviet Union, which is now retaking its place as a world power."
