DESCRIPTION

Article [translation]: "Takuaki Matsumoto talks about German withdrawal from League of Nations. Dr. Matsumoto, who is from Hiroshima and has many acquaintances there, spoke on board a ship as follows: 'Japan has been internationally isolated wince its withdrawal from the league, but I want to introduce the true Japan to the educated class in Germany. Germany has finally made the same mistake as Japan, but it was unavoidable for us. It is impossible to maintain our present status under the exploitation of the Allied Powers. France may want to seize power, but it cannot carry out that plan because of its ties to England. It is profitable for Japan if the other European countries don't agree with Germany's actions. If this produces an opportunity for cooperation between Japan and Germany, it would create an important epoch of alliance. It would create an important epoch in history. (The picture shows Dr. Matsumoto.)"
