JAPANESE BUDGET.
MONEY NEEDED FOR WAR. TOKIO, Aug. 5. Cabinet has approved a supplementary budget of £24,000,000 for expenditure in North China, for which purpose £5,700,000 has already been voted.
CLASH INEVITABLE. PERIOD OF QUIET FIRST. LONDON, Aug. 5. The Daily Telegraph’s Tokio correspondent says that a major clash between the Chinese and Japanese is accepted as inevitable by all Japanese editors and special correspondent in China, although they are inclined to believe that a period of comparative quiet will intervene to permit both sides, particularly the Chinese, to strengthen their positions. Nanking reports that people have begun pouring out _of the capital. Trains and buses leaving the city are crowded. The Government has urged public servants to remove their families owing to the possibility of a food shortage. A Tientsin message says the Japanese military have ordered all the influential newspapers in North China to suspend publication, including the Tientsin Evening Post and the Pekin Chronicle, which are published in the English language.
