JAPANESE PAPERS

Anti-American Riot Is Nipped in
City of Tokyo.
DECRY PRESIDENT WILSON
Police Bar Outburst Before the U. S.
Embassy-Growing international
Influence of America Thought
to Be Basis for Agitation.

Tokyo, May 1.-THE anti-American
campaign in the japanese press con-
tinues with renewed force. Up to the
present no serious overt acts have
been committed against Americans or
American property. Evidence exists,
however, that the newspaper agita-
ton, which has spread to virtually all
the leading journals of the empire, is
melting popular feeling against Amer
lea and thus paving the way for pos
sible open demonstrations.
Representative japanese deplore
the press campaign and have begun to
criticize the government for its fail
IRE to check the literary outbursts, o..
the ground that they are going so far
that they are liable to engender i'll
feeling.
Threaten U. S. Embassy.
The participants in a mass meeting
held Sunday, at which some anti
American speeches were delivered, an
nounced their intention of continuing
the demonstration in front of the
American embassy. The police, how
ever, interfered and prevented this
step.
The belief is expressed here that the
basis for the agitation is fear of the
growing influence of the United
States in international affairs, as evil
denced by her position at the peace
conference and that it will act as a
curb on what are regarded as Japan's
legitimate aspirations in China and
Siberia
After declaring that renewed at
| tempts for anti-Japanese legislation
on the Pacific slope indicate that the
| Americans persecute Japan in every
thing, while wearing the mask of lib
erty and fairness, the Hochi Shimbun
| charges the Americans with having in
cited the Chinese to make the secret
treaties public and also accuses Amer
| lean missionaries of fomenting the
Korean instruction.
The YorOdzu ChohO says the Ameri-
cans responsible for attempts at anti
| Japanese legislation are nothing bet
| ter than DarDarlanS; Indt tnelr dcIlOIlS
are more deSpicable than those of the
