Toxic. January 21.-The reply of the
Japanese government to the United
States proposal for naturalization OF
ManchurIan railways was handed to
American Ambassador O'Brlen this az.
ternoon. 1t Is a polite dcclination.
No intimation OF the contents of the
memorandum of reply Is given. The
best information obtainable indicates
that the communication is brief, and
that the declination to accept the neu-
tralization proposition Is based on sev.
eral grounds.
Chief of>thesc reasons are:
The American plan would be OF no
advantage whatever to Japan.
1t would afford no advantage to
China.
1t would not change the commercial
situation in Manchuria, whore 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 apprecia-
ton OF the American purpose. It Is
not OF an argumentative character.
