JAPAN'S ATTITUDE
TO Be INVESTIGATED
United States Will Learn as to
Intentions of Political Move
in the Far East.

Acutely aware Of the delicate situation
II contronts with respect to its cor
respondence with England and Ger
many over the use of the American flag
and the German war zone decree. the
Administration today was reminded by
press dispatches from the Far East OF
another grave problem of international
import.
Looming up as possible cause for fric-
ton are the reported demands present.
ed to the republic OF China by Japan.
Dating back to the original pronounce
ment by the United States OF its support
Of the "open door" policy in China. the
moral obligation Of the United States to
safeguard the integrity Of the Chinese
nation has come to be recognized inter-
nationally as one Of the strongest de-
fences Of the Chinese people.
Not only was the United States first
to oppose by diplomatic correspondence
the dismemberment OF China. but was
ono Of the first champions Of the Chinese
republic.
While there is nothing to show that
the United States has been officially ad-
vised Of the Japanese demands. nor any
confirmation Of the printed reports con-
cerning them, It Is thought the State
Department will make inquiries Of Am
bassador Reinsch. at Peking. or more
immediate interest, however. is the
suggestion in dispatches from the Chi
nese capital that Japan's demands are
aimed not only at a monopoly OF polit-
ical influence over the Chinese govern
ment. but likewise at the exclusion OF
all other foreign influence. including
! that Of England. France. and Russia
Japans allies in the present war with
Germany.
The administration expects its notes
to Germany and England to be delivered
| some time today. Until they are re-
| ceived by the foreign Offices at Berlin
not be published in this country. AZ
| previously indicated, however, both
! notes are in the nature of Inquiries. but
! remind both nations Of the serious
| danger which their actions threaten to
