Berlin, June 13.
A new trade agreement between Germany and Japan will be initialed in Berlin some time this month, well-informed circles here stated today. Negotiations between the two coun-Aries have been going on for over a year.
The present proportion of trade exchanges involving Berlin and Tokyo is four against one in favour of the former. The new agreement, it is understood, modifies this proportion to Japan's advantage.
The commercial exchanges will involve German engines, planes, and manufactured products, for Japanese silk, cotton and other goods.
It is believed that the agreement does not cover the areas in China occupied by the Japanese, for which a special accord will be drafted later on.—Havas.
