Japan Exaets Price From United States
For Increased War Aetivties-Othe

Important Factor In German Defeat.

Washington, Nov. S.-Increased Jap
anese participation in the war. both
on land and sea, is expected to be the
result Of the negotiations concluded by
the United States and Japan by which
recognition is given TO Japans special
interests In China.
1t was learned yesterday that the
Japanese fleet has been modified
Nearly 100 vessels aggregating more
than 100000 tons are engaged. This is
accepted as forecasting the dispatch by
Japan of large feet to European
waters.
Dispatch Of Japanese army TO Eu-
rope is expected in response to ap-
peals made by both Italy and Russia.
Japan Waited for Price.
The United States will meet Japan's
price for increased var activity by
China. There has been no secret that
Japan has been holding back until
the attitude Of the powers. particularly
the United States, with reference to
japanese Chinese relations was set
forth.
One Of the important questions at
the forthcoming allied war conference
will be the part Japan Will take in the
war. Italian and Russian delegates
will urge use OF japanese troops on
their fronts. Russia's attitude has
been set forth by the Vechernee NreIn-
va, which urges that whatever may
be her demand, nothing will be con-
sidered too dear, in view Of the enor-
nous loss of lives and money that will
occur during the six months that the
war viii be shortened by the appear
ance OF Japan on the firing line"
View of the Italians.
Italys view, expressed by the Cor
rjere Della Sera, one Of the most in
huential Italian newspapers, is that
one of the worst errors Of the allies
has been the missed opportunity OF
japanese participation
Not single responsible statesman
among the allies" it said, had the
timely insight to urge d st-a!g h-for-
ward bid for Japans intervention"
The action of the United States in
satisfying Japan Is accepted as re-
ply to these criticisms.
In diplomatic circles the belief Is ex-
pressed that the United States achieV-
ed q notable success in the negotia-
lions with Japan. The United States
it was asserted, was obliged to recog-
n1ze, either expressly or tacitly, Japan S
claims in respect to China, a claim
which the United States had advanced
toward the American continents in the
Monroe doctrine, which Is reciprocally
recognized by Japan in principle, tho
not in name, in the exchange Of notes
between Secretary Lansing and VS.
count 1shu.
What Japan viii Pay.
Japan, according to the diplomats,
has consented to furnish a great
amount of tonnage for transport pur-
poses and to risk her warships. Troops
are believed to have been promised
also. In return Japan will obtain from
the United States recognition OF its
claims in China and also a supply Of
steel and iron adequate for her needs.
