"Tokyo, Sept. 16.
Japan has decided to flood China and Manchoukuo with goods because of the loss of foreign markets with the exception of Thailand and Indo-China, it was learned today.
Japan's foreign markets have been greatly cut off because of the expansion of the European war and the Anglo-American freezing of Japanese assets.
The Cabinet 3 today adopted a sweeping change in Japan's trade policy, calling for the maximum possible exports to Manchoukuo and China, Previously only surplus Japanese goods which had been in Shanghai Were sent to other areas of China.
The plan further presages a sharp reduction in the number of Japanese export and import firms, which at present total approximately 6.000.—United Press.
