Tokyo, Nov. 7, No time limit was included in the Japanese note requesting the French government to carry out its previous promises to place a complete ban on the trans-shipment of arms and ammunition through French Indo-China, a Gaimusho spokesman declared today in replying to queries by foreign correspondents.
The spokesman added that friendly negotiations regarding the subject are going on between France and Japan. He added that it was his opinion that there was not much trans-shipment of war materials going on at the present time. He voiced the hope, however, that such trans-shipments would be stopped completely.—Domei.
