mitted either that She was beacon or
that her attitude prior to the war was
njustificd and in either case Japan
holds that Russia should pay the cast
OF the war. Japan feels hat Russia's

sonable, claiming that her face was
lost when she conceded! the ante-bcl-

public opinion is not only bitterly op-
posed to further concessions, but fav-

people feel, and their feeling it is said.
