GERMANS WORRIED ABOUT
AMERICA AND JAPAN
(New York Times)

The Hague, July 28.-The news
that Japan will intervene in Siberia,
but especially the fact that Japais
and America have comes to terms,
has aroused acute interest in Ger
many, particularly as the papers
have been prophesying exactly the
contrary for so long and there were
undoubtedly many persons in Ger
many who still banked on future
alliance with Japan.
If Japan and America are to act
jointly in Siberia, the Cologne Volks
Zeitung says, then it means that an
accord has been reached between Jap
anese and American interests.
"Japan's attitude also means," it
goes on, "that in influential Japan
ese circles it is believed that the in
terests of the country are being as
sured by close alliance with the En-
tente. This fact is worthy of consid-
cradle attention"
The paper speculates on what in
sterests the western powers have in
strengthening Japanese influence in
Eastern Asia and says that the
strengthening of this power is the
only means to an end. Events in the
far east, and the new undertakings
on the Murman coast, it says, are in
tended to react on European Russia
and thus on the war in the west by
strengthening the anti-revolutionary
party.
eve cannot think" it proceeds,
''that an attack on European Russia
by the Siberian railway is really SER
iously contemplated"
The paper deduces that Japan and
America have naturally been paid
something for their consent to inter-
vention.
Japan" it says, certainly reck-
ons too coldly to allow herself to be
used for European interests in which
she is not concerned. What the agree
ments concerning East Asia are we
can only guess. America would not
have given her consent and help to
Siberian action if she had not been
assured of political and economic ad-
vantages in Siberia as guarantee
against Japan's monopoHzation of
East Asia. 1t does not require much
perception to see that the present
Japanese-American agreement hides
seeds of dissension, and the more
