Tokyo, Feb. 24.
An agreement of views was reached between Japan and France for Japan's purchases of rice from French Indo-China, and the agreement was already being carried out, Mr. Yosuke Matsuoka announced at the committee meeting of the House of Representatives today.
"Economic relations between Japan, and French Indo-China hitherto had been unsatisfactory in many points," Mr. Metsuoka revealed, but he added that "negotiations at Tokyo between Japan and France regarding Indo-China are being continued in a spirit of mutuel concession and conciliation in efforts to fulfil each other's needs."—Domei.
