pAR1S.---L'IlluStrati makes a fea- ture of an article on Japanese inter- yention written by Andre Cheradame. M. Cheradame declares Japanese in- able, as victory for the allies is certain through their own efforts. He says, however, that the matter should be considered solely from the viewpoint of shortening the infinite sufferings of the war.
 NJ. Cheradame recounts Japan's grievance Germany which led Russia to occupy Port Arthur and instigated the Russo Japanese war He also charges that Germany recently corrup- ted Japanese naval officers in the mat ter of getting contracts for German firms for installing electric and other works on the new warships.
 The writer consideres that Russia, England, and France will be able to give Japan territorial compensation without invovling Indo-China. which Japan does not desire. But financial compensation, he says, is more impor- tant. as Japan was unable to obtain an indimnity after the war with Russia Japan is weighted with taxation and is unable to expand at home. For this reason it Is now driven to seek new lands for it's people to emigrate to-
 NJ Cheradame figures that interven- ton by Japan would shorten the wal three months and save the allies $20O, 100000 a month. A loan could be made to Japan which Germany eventually would have to pay as an idemnity.

This a point which alothor writers on this subject have steadily avoided, although it is understood here that England's dislike of Japanese intervention is greatly due to a desire not to offend the United States
 After pointing out that the Monroe doctrine, which prevents European countries from intervining in Mexico, puts the United States out of court as an objector M.
