JAPAN IN SIBERIA.

HOWEVER necessary IL may be for Japan to nnd new

ion OF many Americans there must be no expansion by
the sword in the Far East.

sphere Of American interest
Any deveionent that forcbly dsturbs existing ntena

sequences for the United States.
Japan has not yet deInoorazed her government japan
is still a military power
Her and navy departments are not even under the
ultimate authority OF the prime minister
They directed exclusively by the heads Of the two
departments
Thai is to say by the miliarstic elements in Japsns
national life
The Japanese ambassador at Washington is controlled
by his foreign office.
The foreisn Office in turn is controlled by the prime
minister and his cabinet
But The ministry cannot control Japans nghtins ma
chine.
It is selfperpetuating and is not ansverabe to Par
lament
For this the Japanese ambassador cannot speak
authortatvey concerning the activities and ambitions Of
Japan's army and navy chiefs.
Neither the Japanese foreign office
Neither the japanese premier.
They all know as much the field marshals and ad
mrals choose TO tell, and more.
