GERMAN PAPERS UNEASY OVER FAR
 EAST CONDITIONS

Amsterdam, March 14-Some sec- tions of the German press are un- easy over developments in the Far East.
 The Frankfurter Zeitung considers that the breaking up of Russia into a number of independent states is a bad policy for Germany and urges the greatest tact and prudence be used in dealing with the border states so that they will not 'fn the future sigh for reunion with Russia and become so many thorns in Germany's side" The newspaper adds:
 "Clearly, the Entente policy is to use the Japanese alliance to shove Germany out of Asiatic markets for ever. Germany played their game by breaking up Russia. Germany now has no more hope than ever of being able to conduct a Far Eastern policy except in conjunction with Great Britain and Russia. That is why a weak Russia will not contri- bute to Germany's ultimate well fare"
 Capt. von Salzmann, the military critic of the Vossische zeitung, writes:
 "Germany too late began to realize that the time might come when the United States and Japan would see that war is not always the most profitable way of settling differences. Germanys Russian policy has played the game brilliantly for Great Britain and the United States. In the same way Germany has increased Hollands debt of gratitude to Great Britain.
 'It should have been Germany's game to earn Hollands gratitude by guaranteeing her the safe possession of her East Indian colonies, but in stead of this she cemented the Anglo Jananese alliance and delivered the Dutch colonies from Japanese press ure southward by opening the door to Japanese enterprise in Russia.
 "Only the most limited intelh- gence can believe that the breakup of Russia will be to Germany's ad- vantage. The true results of Ger many's Russian policy already are patent in the lessening of the differ ences between Japan and the United States, and the cementing of the Anglo-Japanese alliance and the con- seuuent security of the Anglo-lndlan and the Australian colonial posses sions. as well as the Dutch and French colonies in southeastern Asia
 "The consequences are that Ger many again finds herself without friends in the world, while Great Britain laughs in the background"
