The Foreign Office spokesman made a fresh declaration regarding the Jewish question this morning, in reference to reports that German Jews were being debarred from Japan and Manchoukuo on the basis of discrimination against them on account of their rece or national origin, Mr. Kawai stated that no racial discrimination whatever is being imposed by either the Japanese or Manchoukuo government against Jew refugees in respect of their entrance into Japan, Manchoukuo, or the areas in China under Japanese occupation.
In reply to your correspondent, Mr. Kawai stated categorically that there has been no case of such persons having been refused admission into the territories mentioned as a result but is likely to refuse admission to those who seem undesirable due to the possibility of their disturbing peace and order er to their not having sufficient means of support. He added this will be strictly applied to persons proposing to enter zones in China where special conditions prevail.
