A HAGUE WAR CRY
AMERICA And JAPAN.
Correspondent Hears of Strong De
mands Made By Toxic.

London, July 1O.-The correspondent OF THE
Daily Telegraph" at The Hague sends in a coll
umn dispatch which purports TO reflect the views
prevailing there the Japanese American situ-
alton which he says absorhs more interest than
the conference itself
The correspondent says that as a result of his
inquiries he learns that the situation is really
strained, although both governments are trying
to conceal the fact. He asserts that since June
20 the question has entered on an acute phase.
Japan has been sending the United States ex-
tremely categorical notes, stating, without bit
terness, but in the clearest terms the dilemma
that unless Washington is able to control Cali
fornia Japan will consider herself free to act
directly against California
Nothing however. yet has been exchanged
precludng pacific settlement. but many Of tine
Japanese a The Hague are of the opinion that
the Japanese government ought to act without
delay. and not give America time utilize her
vast resources and economic potentalty. d
hundredfold greater than Japans, to perfect
warlike preparations.
In editorial article The Telegraph" says
1t does not identify itself with the statements
OF its correspondent at The Hague, believing
the same time. the paper continues. they are
made upon notable authority and they cannot
he read without profound uneasiness The Tel
egraph' is convinced, however that the states
manship of both countries will be strong enough
and the instinct OF the two great nations sane
enough to hold chauvinism in leash.
Nevertheless" the paper says, 1T is impos-
sible to deny the danger Of the situation. The
present peace conference. from its opening, has
created disagreement and friction tending TO
worsen instead Of improve the relations Of the
powers. The last assembly at The Hague was
followed by great conflicts only pray
that the present one may not be succeeded by
more terrible calamities"
In conclusion. after a full discussion Of the
points Of difference. The Telegraph says II Is
not A color question. but fundamentally eco
nomic question. and adds:
We trust our allies will take II at that and
realize that the point Of national honor has been
accidentally caught UP with the problem. but is
not permanently involved in IT. Any attempt TO
settle the question by arms. whatever the imme-
date issue, would mean. sooner or later hum
dred years conflict"
