Wilson's Statement Shows America
Has Been Dealing Directly
with Tokyo.

| The State Department has been in
| formed by Mr.. Reinsch. United States
Minister at Pekin. of the acceptance BY
China of the principal articles of the
Japanese demands. which were published
| teStually Wednesday in the dispatches
| from Tokyo.
This information changed the views OF
the administration, which. as announced
by President Wilson. are that there could
be no discussion of the matter until this
government had replies from it's in
quries to Japan"
The statement of the President was
the first official announcement that the
United States was dealing directly with
Japan. 1t disposed also of the various
published reports that the United States
had been making inquiries of Grea,
Britain and that Great Britain Russia
and the United States and other foreign
powers were making a joint protest to
Japan.
The British Embassy took pains to an
rounce that the United States and Great
Britain were mot in consultation on tn"
subject OF the Japanese demands and
also denied specifically that Great Britain
ard Russia were making protests.
British officials here declared that the
suggestion that Great Britain and Franco
were cocrcing their ally. Japan. was alb
Surd.
Officials here were aroused when they
rad the text OF the demands which had
been made upon china and which had
been granted by her. There H. only ono
opinion among Officials that such con-
c"sSions, so important to tho trade OF
the United States and Of the world, could
only have been secured by tho constant
threat Of physical force by Japan.
