Berlin. Aug. p. -- (By A. P.) -
Prince Bernhard Won Buclow, former

making revelations concerning the out

Fremdenblatt, of Hamburg, regarding
the statement made by DIR. Theobnld

his mind got busy on the necessary
deal.
He saw the Shantung question
coming. And the Japanese saw just
what part House played in the set
tlement Of affairs. They wasted no
time on any one else. They camped
in the Coloners office. The attention
to him became so marked that the
Chinese were frightened. They ran
around Paris asking every one, even
American newspaper men, What
about House? What influence has
he? Is it true that he is the Pres
ident's chief adviser?"
House Sought Least Resistance
House was convinced by the Jap
anese. His view of the Shantung
situation was that no principle was
involved. 1t was only question of
methods. Shantung would return to
China in any case. To do it one way
would flatter the Japanese natural
pride. To insist on doing it another
way would be to wound the Japanese
sensiblities. To wound the Japan
ese feelings would be to endanger
the league and the treaty.
Colonel Houses optimism came in
here. He, no doubt, honestly be-
lieved that Japan, unbound by any
written agreement and not having
set any date, would still unquestion-
ably return Shantung to China. The
President needed just contact with
