Tokyo, Oct. 28.
Further warnings that failure to ce-operate with Japan by the Powers might be detrimental to their interests in China was contained in the morning papers today.
The "Miyako- Shimbun" states that Powers which have been helping General Chiang Kai-shek "may now be regretful about their miscalculation.
"If the various Powers should hesitate to recognize the projected new Central Government of China, we fear that their interests there might strike a hitch," the paper adds.
The "Nichi Nichi Shimbun" states:—
"It Mr. Chamberlain wants to strengthen his realistic foreign policy, Britain must modify her attitude towards China.
"This is the only way in which Britain can maintain her interests in East Asia."
The "Yomiuri Shimbun" declares:—"In view of the fact that public opinion in Great Britain has undergone a change, we can easily foresee the direction of Mr. Chamberlain's so-called foreign policy."
The "Yomiuri Shimbun" counsels the people not to minimize General Chiang Kai-shek's resistance.
"We must not be too optimistic, nor declares, intoxicated with victory," the paper
The "Hochi Shimbun," which takes a more optimistic view, says that the fall of Hankow means the collapse of the Chiang Kai-shek regime.
It is of the opinion that the "time has come to construct a new order in East Asia, based on the projected anti-Comintern Axis between Japan, China and Manchoukuo,"
The "Chugai Shimbun" predicts that, with the fall of Hankow, the Communists will overpower the Kuomintang, and henceforth Soviet assistance will be directed positively towards the Communist Party."
