FEAR EFFECT ON JAPAN
Toxic Newspapers Uneasy Re.
garding World League.
Accuse United States and Great
Britain of Making World Unsafe
for Democracy.

Toxic, May 6.--Politicians and news
papers in Japan are still uneasy re-
garding the league of nations and its
effect upon this country.
Details of the Shantung settlement
were lacking. Nothing was announced
by the foreign Office. Newspapers call
the decision momentous Japanese
victory. Asahi Shumbun, however,
fears recognition of Japan's claim in
the Shantung peninsula will lead to
the necessity Of Allied recognition of
similar claims of other nations, de-
stroying the mandatory rule principle.
Kokumin Shimbun, organ of the bu-
reaucratic element, still sees danger
ahead for Japan in the South sea
island possessions question. 1t urges
preparation for secession from the
league of nations conference at any
time.
A number of editorial writer's con
tinue to charge that England and
America at the Peace conference are
making the world unsafe, instead of
more safe for democracy. Some liker
these countries efforts to German
methods.
