Discuss Japanese
Plan to Intervene

WASHINGTON, March 1.-Japan's
move to develop the feeling of the allies
toward proposal for joint military op-
erations in Siberia 10 keep the vast stores
at Vladivostok and also the Trans Siberi-
an railway from falling into hands Of the
German invaders of Russia was widely
discussed today among diplomats and Of
ficials, hut all were reluctant to give
opinions for publication.
Opinion in London that the declaration
by the Japanese foreign minister. Count
Motono. in the Japanese diet, could only
be interpreted as declaration that ia
pan was about TO intervene was regarded
as further evidence Of the negotiations
now proceeding between the co-belliger-
ents To make the action Of IN international
character, probably including the partici-
patton of the American forces.
Must Protect War Supplies
While all officials here are silent and
disposed to minimize discussion of the
subject. it is known that exchanges Of
opinion are going on with the object of a
perfect understanding between Japan. the
United States and the other co-belliger-
ents,. which would make the plan Of joint
action wholly acceptable to AT and thor
oughly define its extent and duration.
Russian representatives here oppose
action by the japanese in Siberia. but the
60 -beIligerents are thoroughly alarmed
lest the vast quantities of supplies piled
up at Vladivo,tok. bought and paid for
with American cash, should fall into the
hands of the Germans.
