In resolutions passed by the organization yesterday and presented to officials of the Japanese Government, the Tohokai advocated this action in retaliation to the British seizure of 21 German passengers on the Asama Maru.
The political party also urged that vessels of all third party Powers assisting the Chungking Government should be prevented from entering Chinese and Japanese waters, but pointed particularly to those of Great Britain.
The Japanese navy was also requested to assume a strong attitude in order to maintain the prestige of Japan in the eyes of not only the people of Japan but throughout the world.—Domei.
