By the Associated Press. TOKIO, April 7.—Commenting to- day on the recent statement by Vi Admiral Kato, the minister of m ihe, in which he declared Japan not trying to compete with the Amer- fean navy and that her project to have a fleet of eight battleships and eight battle cruisers not more than eight years old was not necessarily ifreducible, the conservative newspap- or Jiji Shimpo declares this statement merits serious attention throughout the world. It deserves such attention, it says, Hecause contrary to the opinion of many other Japanese, it admits the possibility of scaling down the eight- battleship eight-battle-cruiser project When a reliable agreement for cur- tailment shall have been concluded among the powers. “Vice Admiral Kato's declaration.” adds the newspaper, “should serve to remove misunderstandings abroad and give a decided impetus to the move- ment for international armament re- striction.” ———————— INJURED RESCUING STOCK.
