Tokyo, June 26.
Normal trade relations between Japan and France have been assured following an exchange of communications between the two Governments on June 15, a spokesman for the Foreign Office announced today.
Usual import quotas for Japanese tinned salmon and trout as well as for China would be given this year by France, the Paris Government advised the Tokyo authorities on June 15, the spokesman said. France would also endeavour to make this year's imports of Japanese merchandise reach the average quantity of Japanese imports in the past, the note reportedly said.
On the same day, the Tokyo Government informed Paris that purchases of French goods by Japan would be increased, the spokesman declared.
The adjustment of Japan's overseas trade, necessitated by the present situation, rendered imports of French merchandise into Japan difficult. Representations were made by the French Government on the subject, the spokesman said—Domei.
