The decision by the strikers at Saba

fear that if it is carried out collisions

American Proposition Regarded
by NippOnese Statesman as
Difficult to Work Out

TOKYO, Jan. S.-Baron Shibusawa,
the noted economist; Count okuma.
FORMER foreign minister, and Doctor
Iatoyama. a leader of the conservative
party, expressed themselves as en-
phaUcany opposed TO Secretary Knox's
proposals for the naturalization of the
Nanchurian railway.
Baron Shibusawa said the plan could
NOT he carried out. chiefly because of
jealousy among the powers.
Count Okuma characterized the prop
osition as impractical and nebulous.
III the Manchurian railways must be
ueutra lied, why not all the railways in
China?" he asked.
The leading newspapers in their is
sues Of tomorrow disapprove Of the ac-
oeptance by Japan of the proposition.
The consensus OF opinion here is that
The plan is impracticabIe because Japan
would not receive a benefit proportion
ate with the sacrifice entailed.
INTERESTS UNPROTECTED
Tt is held that the interests of the
japanese settlers in southern Manchu-
ria could not be protected under such
an ARA ngement- Official circles remain
noncommittal on the subject. It is gen
orally believed here that Russia viii
decline 10 accept the American sug-
Eestion.
The newsps pers viii point out that
the commercial neutrality OF southern
Msnchuria was guaranteed by the
treaty Of Portsmouth.
The first information which the pub
lic had of the American note was con-
tsined in extended news dispatches
from Washington printed this morn
ing They were unaccompanied with
editorial expressions.
Although the members of the ca BIZ
net and other government officials de-
cline 10 give the slightest intimation of
their official views IL may be stated
with assurance that the japanese gov
ernmeut is now conferring with Rus
sis. and the tenor Of Japans reply will
depend largely on the position taken al
ST. Petersburg.
TREATY OUTLINES ATTITUDE
IT is no secret that the Japanese
statesmen regard the American propo-
sition As one which would be extreme
ly difficult TO work out in practice The
authorities insist that the attitude OF
their government is clearly and sufi-
GENTLY outlined in the Portsmouth

assert meanwhile have been carried
out scrupulOusly.
There is no intimation of when
Jspan's reply to the note viii be forth
coming. but there is reason to believe
that the government viii not concede
the necessity Of a change in existing
conditions. through which q claim OF
equal opportunity is afforded, unless
st least. the contemplated project
would give the strictest guarantee for
the future safeguarding of Japan's in
terests IN Manchuria.
The japanese experts do not regard
the construction of railroad from All
gun in northern Manchuria TO Chin
Cow Fu as a practical business PROPOSE
tion. In the American memorandum
Secretary Knox refers to the concession
for such a line. which was obtained
some time ago by a syndicate of Amer
icans and Englishmen, and adds that
