Acquisitive Japan claims vast Pacific island gains
Mr. E C Dyason told a Melbourne audience that Japan has annexed over 1,400 islands north of the equator and urged stronger policing of the Eastern Pacific and Indian oceans by Australian or British navies. He helped form a society on Australian settlement by 70,000 Japanese and said colonisation was being intensified. The lands could be seized due to Japan's departure from the League of Nations.
