WASHINGTON, April 29.-The at
tftude of the United States in the
Eastern war trouble has been made
clear to the various powers interest
ed. In brief, it is that the unvary-
ing policy of this country is not to
form alliances which may involve it
in complications with the countries
of Europe or Asia. 1t is a reasser-
ton of the policy of isolation, except
insofar as this country may be able
to exert a kindly or advisory in
f1uence toward the adjustment of
trouble involving Eastern nations.
The foregoing is now accepted by
diplomats here as the policy which
will guide the United States in the
pending European complications
over the Japan-China settlement. At
one time, within recent days, there
was prospect that the United States
might cooperate with Great Britain
and Italy in endeavoring to effect a
solution of the Japan-China trouble
and the .belligerent protests of Rus
STA, France and Germany Such ac-
ton, if it had been taken, would not
nave been in the nature of assist
ance to Japan, but merely an eXer-
ton of joint influence to persuade
CHINA to ratify the peace a agreement.
1t is said by diplomats that, as ia
pan has already ratified the agree
ment, similar action by China would
make it effective. While, therefore.
Russia, France and Germany were
protesting at Toxic, the desire of the
other powers was to bring to bear
their influence at Pekin.
1t is known positively that
ITALY'S POLICY
IS that of neutral, but that it ia
Vors the execution of the Japan
China agreement as already made.

with Japan. This will not, however.
go TO the extent of opposing the Rus
so-FTanco-German alliance.
1t is understood that Great Brit
aims course is along the same lines.
go far as the United States is con-
cerned, there will be no co-opera-
tlon, as already stated, except in such
kindly way as may seem for the in
terest OF all concerned, but ALWAYS

Ties OF forcible complications
