Tokyo, Oct. 30.
The need for immediately starting a national movement to sever diplomatic relations with Great Britain was the subject of a resolution passed to-day by the "Council on the Current Situation," an unofficial body consisting mainly of members of the Lower House and leading industralists.
The resolution, which brought to the surface undercurrents recently visibly strengthening, denounced the British attitude towards the Sino-
Japanese conflict.
The meeting also adopted a manifesto declaring that, since the outbreak of the "China incident," Great Britain had failed to observe neutrality, and alleging that Britain had openly pursued "an arrogant and insulting attitude towards Japan," had consistently been "assisting China in her struggle against Japan," and had been the main driving force in persuading other powers to con-yoke the Nine4Power Conference, "apparently with the object of bringing about international intervention in the China situation."
