ests of European powers in China
are extensive and complicated. ia.
pan has her special interest in some
| parts of the land, but many of the
European powers have larger and
more prosperous parts under their
spheres of influence. If Japan should
attempt to close the door in a part
of China, her economic gain in that
district will be more than Offset by
her loss in other larger parts of the
continent, which will subsequently be
caused by the antagonism of Chinese
people and by the combined opposi-
tiOn of other powers. Japan is not
foolish enough to kill a hen which
lays golden eggs. Furthermore, if an
economic partition should once be in
trOduced, it will eventually lead to
a political disintegration of China
Japan can hardly permit such a state
of affairs for the sake of her own
national security. Our self interest
dictates us to respect and maintain
the principle of the open door and
territorial integrity of China by every
means.
There exists group of people who
look upon America alone as the great
savior of China, but it is not Amer
lea. it is Japan, it is not any country
in Europe which can ultimately save
China. 1t must be the Chinese them
selves. l wish most sincerely and
earnestly that our great neighbOr will
soon become strong enough to protect
her own rights and interests by her
own power, and relieve us of the pc
culiar position which is open to con-
slant misunderstanding and misinter-
probation.
We seek in China only economic
the most natural course
in view of our racial and geograph-
ical proximity. Japan is small
country with large population. One

SPIES SEEK TO ENTER AMERICA
GERMAN SOCIALISTS SPLIT
Copenhagen, April 24.-Berlin is
thrOnged with Turkish troops en-
route to the western front and
stirred by Socialist peace talk, ac-
cOrding to information from German
capital reaching here today
Despite boIstering of western front
revealed as necessary by drawing in
Of Turkish forces, the Berlin public
is being fed on victory stories by
Berlin newspapers and the German
staff.
All information from Berlin indi-
Gates taCit encouragement if not aC-
tive aid extended Socialists peace eff
forts by German government. Aim
is encouragement Of peace party
among Russian Socialists. German
Socialists are also aiding the govern
ment in denOuncing the general
strike.
Reports Of meeting of general COM
mittee of German Social Democratic
party, received today, quoted Philip
SCheidemann as declaring:
I'VE attempted connection with
neUtrals and with the Russian Social
lists, but the newspapers made our
work difficult Our effort is toward
general peace. But if a general peace
is impossible, we shall naturally ac-
cept a separate peace. But We must
not be too optimistic"
All dispatches emphasized wide
split between two Socialist factions,
Scheidemann branch, now devOting
its energies to peace work, and the
minority faction, now concentrating
on demand for demOcraticzing of
GeTmany's government and on fur
thering the general strike.
There has been a great influx of
Germans to Copenhagen recently
and the American legation has been
extremely busy in anti-spy work A

in Hungarian Internal politics, look
forward to a speedy beneficial solu
ton. Whatever elements may parti-
cfpate in achieving the realization of
electoral reform and the adjustment
of social problems, it, lis wholly exclud-
ed that the security and cordially Of
our alliance with Germany will be af-
fected in the slightest degree"
The attitude Of the Apponyi party,
which numerically controls more
votes than those of the Andrassy fac
ton, is admitted to be of decisive i'm
portance for the direction of future
Hungarian politics.
Count Moritz Esterhazy the Hun
garian Premier is industrious1y striv-
ing to win the support of Count APP
ponyfs followers by offering their
leader cabinet post. Count Apponyi
as yet is undecided but as indicated
an inclination to consider an APP
pontmest with certain political reser-
yations, Transy1vanian Saxon depu-
ties have withdrawn from the major
ity party and joined the Andrassy
faction which is supporting the Ester
hazy regime.
