Austria. II is known here, is doubt
full about Germany's intentions in her
eastern drive. She sees herself reap
ing no advantages from It as Germany
apparently intends to maintain the
whip hand. And, Austria is chatting
under prolongation OF the war, esS
pecially as Germany promised her
that the war would be over in ninety
days, and that Austria would have q
generous slice OF spoils. .
In these circumstances, the feeling
OF Austria is constantly more bitteT3

Italy, meantime, is beginning 10

JAPAN HELD
TO REALIZE
OBLIGATIONS
+. TO ALLIES

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2s.-The
London Times publishes the follow
ing editorial today, copyrighted by
the Philadelphia Public Ledger:
An indiscretion' in Bavariau
journal reveals what allied statesmen
have long known. that one object OF
the German policy is. to realize in
some form the scheme known as Ber-
1in-to-Tokyo.a The aim OF this scheme
n to tie Japan to the Hohenzollern
chariot wheels and embroil her with
the United States and her western
allies. in order to deal with her at
leisure, as Germany would fsin have
dealt with her when she tore up the
treaty OF Shimonoseki in 1895. and
when she urged the Gar and his ad-
Sisers to make war upon Japan in
1905 .
The collapse of Russia and the con-
cIusion Of a separate peace with the
seIf-emasculated boTshevists and the
progressive German invasion OF
European Russia are doubtless
thought to provide a fitting oppor-
funity for the revival OF the German
schemes in a more concrete form.
But German diplomacy. for all its
nnscrupulousness, usually lacks the
supreme cleverness that takes into
account the intelligence of others. In
this instance lit ignores entirely the
proved loyalty and even the enlight-
eRed selfInterest Of Japan. Germany
may not, indeed. know, as all respon-
Gible allied statesmen know. that the
situate ncreated in Russia by the
conclusion of separate peace has
not taken the japanese government
by surprise.
The possibility that the Ger
msnophile tendencies OF imperial
Russia might bring about a separate
Russo-Gernan peace caused the re-
Eponsible directors OF Japanese policy
more than a year ago to ponder an
action, that might become imperative
In the Far East were Russia to prove
false to her pledges. Unless we have
Eravely mistaken our estimate OF
japanese character. the situation that
has now arisen will appeal to the
statesmen of Tokyo not less urgently
than would have done the situation
which they formerly contemplated as
q contingent possibility.
Japan, who has proved herself
throughout the war, a true. helpful
ally, may be trusted to face the
present position without fiinching

THE Muncher Neuseten Nschrichten,
which often in the form Of mild. inef-
fective criticism discloses movements
OF Prussian opinion, announces the
appearance OF the latest catchword,
Berlin-Tokyo.' The newspaper says:
There is in Berlin, with support

publicists whose watchword Is the
necessity of creating an European
continental league from Berlin to
Tokyo in order that the world may
become AnElo-SaXon. The object Is
certainly most desirable. Nobody
longs more than we for Germany TO
get an opportunity to fulfill her world
mission, but it takes more partners
than Germany alone to make a con-

Warns Against East.

THUS far we have said nothing
about Japan in this war. Japan has
done brilliant business politically and
financially, and assuredly would be
the last to think OF abandoning her
profitable tactics for an oscillation in
behalf OF German literary idea.
mo; IL Germany does not want the
world to become Anglo-Saxon, she
must involve herself as little as pos
sible in Russian and Balkan deals and
must endesvor TO keep her rear in
the east free in order that she can
turn to the west with the greatest
possible strength. sIS.ve lose the
war, this purely eastern orientation
can only be a substitute at best, for
one vital element is a free sea, and
