sition in the Far East.

Tokyo, Jan. 21-The reply of the
Japanese government to the United
States proposal for the neutraliza-
tion of the Manchurian railways was
handed to American Ambassador
'O'Brien this afternoon. It is a polite
Gcclination.
No intimation of the contents of
the memorandum or reply is given
out but the best information obtain
able indicates that the communication
is brief and that the declination to
accept the naturalization proposition
is based on several grounds, chief of
which are:
The American plan would be of no
advantages whatever to Japan. It
would afford no advantage to China.
1t would not change the commercial
situation in Manchuria, where Japan
is adhering strictly to it's pledges of
an open door and equal opportunity.
1t is understood that the reply is
couched in terms of friendly appre-
citation of the American purpose, but
is not of an argumentative charac-
ter and the conclusions are not quail.

reply to Secretary Knox's note, pro-
posing the naturalization of Manchur-
ian railways was delivered to Ambas-
sador Rockhill today. 1t has been un-
derstood generally that Japan and
Russia wuld take identical action on
the American proposal.
The Russian communication re-
iects the proposal for the neuartliza-
'tion of the existing railroads. The
communication state salso thee the
Russian government consideres the
alternative proposition for participa-
tion in an international syndicate for
the construction of the Chin-Chow-
Aigum line acceptable in principle,
but because of the political and stra-
tegetical importance of the enterprise
and the bearing on the East Chinese
railroad, Russia will defer a final
answer n this subject pending teh re-
ceipt of information as to the princi-
pies of the American project. Rus
sia reserves the right to pass upon all
such projects as affecting it's political,
strategetic and economic interests,
The note of reply throughout is in a
friendly tone and the American pro-
position is criticized strongly on itz
