Washington, March 4.-Although in
dications today are that the state de-
partment is being steadily influenced
to accept the allied view that Japan
alone can best deal with the menace of
German aggregation in Siberia, high
officials minated hat any prediction
Of the decision of the American gov
eminent would be unsafe. Conditions
We're changing so rapidly, they said,
and so many factors Were continually
entering the problem thai the United
States was faced by new issues almost
daily.
From the frequent exchanges between
the entente governments and Wash
ington ii is understood Great Britain
and France and possibly Italy believe
an efficient army and navy within
reach of Siberia and not otherwise en-
gagged and acting in conformity with Il
general agreement, might be better able
10 deal with the situation han an in
ternational force.
Doesn't Need U. S. Approval.
1t is gathered here hat the Japanese
government holds that ii does not re-
quire any warrant from the entente
powers generally or America to embark
on a compaign in Siberia, although it
makes an exception in the case of Great
Britain because of the close alliance be
tween Japan and that country expressly
covering their joint interests on the
Asiatic mainland.
The point has been made by some
of the allies during the negotiations
that AZ instance by them on joining
Japan in the proposed move would i'm
ply a lack of confidence in the motives
and ultimate designs of the Japanese
when it came to the final disposition
of any occupied territory.
Lord Reading, the British ambassa-
dor, and Mr.. Tanaki, the Japanese
Charge. had conferences yesterday with
Secretary Lansing. The Japanese gov-
eminent is understood to be relying
upon its ally by special treaty, Great
Britain, to support any course Japan
may adopt in Asia and to assist in
framing such a definition of purposes
as she may feel inclined to submit to
the other allies and to America before
taking final action.

COLDWATER DOES
HANDSOME THING

A great crowd OF people witnessed the
raising of 70-foot flag staff and the un-
furling of Old Glory at Coldwater last
Tuesday evening and participated in the
parade and exercises that followed. A
big service flag was also raised, showing
that coldwater has her quoto of lads in
the camps or overseas.
The parade was almost as inspiring as
the poll-raising. 1t was headed by the
Celina- Coldwater band, led by that prince
of band-mastels, John B. Albers, follow
ed by village officials, veterans, school
children, Knights of St. John, Red

industries and citizens of Coldwater and
and vicinity.
This was followed by patriotic ad-
dresses by Mayor Morvilius, master of
ceremonies; 1. r. Antrim, of Van Vert,
and Congressman B. F. Welty Of Lima.
This patriotic event at Coldwater will
long be remembered with pride by those
who participated in it. 1t was fine

have gone forth to serve under its folds
to and those who spent their time and
means in making the celebration worthy
the cause in which they are engaged.
