WASHINGTON BREAK
ONE DANGER FEARED
Official Says Metropolis Harbors
Hosts of Potential Trouble
Makers.

New York. now the largest city in the
world. Is not asleep on the question OF
municipal preparedness. Under direc-
tiOn Of Police Commissioner Wood, the
Chief Inspectors staff, cooperating
with Inspector Henry Cohen, has just
completed a survey Of New York City's
natural resources. Should n riot or
catastrophe occur the police will know
just where 70 go and what 70 do In
chaotic conditions.
The report to the Police Commits
sioner covers many unusual conditions.
IL contains detailed information rela-
tive 70 rivercraft; motor vehicles that
may be pressed into service in case Of
need; large plots of ground within the
city available for camps. emergency
hospitals or training grounds; empty
buildings that may be useful; statistics
of horses and other mounts obtainable
on short notice; census of the foreign
population arranged in districts. ac-
trouble due to race riots; organization
OF citizens for riot duty; methods OF
handling large bodies Of volunteers;
training schools for such volunteers
under police officers, and systems bear
ing on the transportation and equip
ment Of large groups Of men.
Every poiceman's business prior TO
his joining the metropolitan force is on
record. Each man is placed in a group
under his respective trade or calling
for special duty. College men and men
specially fitted By previous training I.
qualify as officers have been selected
from the II, 900 men making up the
force. Others who were skilled me-
chanics have been picked out. Physical
and mental fitness play a big part in
deciding what man will be called
upon to do under unusual conditions.
Ever since the Plattsburg Camp, con-
Quoted by the United States army Off

japan Declines 10 Sanction
Chinese Help for Allies

TOXIC, Dec. 1.-THE suggestion Of
the Allies that China be brought into
the war on their side 10 unfavorably
received in japan. The press has
voiced unmistakable antagonism to the
project
Il is not true. as some Of the Japan
ese papers have said, that Japan was
not consulted by the Allies on the
question As matter Of fact. the pro-
posal was communicated 20 Baron lshii.
the Minister for Foreign Affairs. by the
ambassadors Of the Entente Powers,
who requested the support of the
japanese government.
Baron Ishii explained that such an
idea wa. incompatible with Japan's pol
icy, which is based upon localization
Of the war. The minister thought that
# China abandoned her neutrality end.
less complications would arise with the
German and Austrian residents in
China. which could only tend TO disturb
the peace Of the Far East. He doubted
whether these complications were worth
while and whether the benefits would
warrant the risks.
In considering the politics of the
Orient the fact is 20 be borne in mind
that Japan will undoubtedly pursue the
doctrine that she is entitled 20 fill the
predom!nating role in Oriental affairs.
The "Asahl" calls tho proposal Of tn
Allies absurd and unreasonable. Sup
posing tha' the Allies intend TO induce
China TO Join the Entente with a view
20 preventing China being made a cats
paw at the hand OF Germany" 1t says,
"the Allies plan is an idle dream. as
they would never derive any benefit
from China which j. H. n chaotic con
dition ard can give no substantial sup
port 10 the Allies"
The "Hochi Shimbun," owned by
Katsunuo Minoura, Minister Of Com
munications. warns the japanese that
the future will undoubtedly witness
remarkable commercial activity on th ,
part of Americans in China. While
tho Allied powers are engaged in life
and-death struggle in Eurore and the
Near East, there arc sig>~ that the
United States is beginning to start
commercial enterprise, either inde-
rondently or in conjunction with the
Chinese. on the Asiatic continent and
on the Pacific. Cons picuous among
these are a Chino-American bank, a
Chino steamship company

According to one Of the plans that
the police have in mind. every precinct

will be used for the training Of neigh

who will give their time 20 the munl-
