JAPANESE ARMS
!. IN BANDITS HANDS
Evidence of Empires
Desire to Dominate Chi.
nese Eastern Railways.

Evidence Of Japanese desire for
complete domination Of the Chinese
Eastern railway, now administered
by an inter-allied commission, was
reported to the Chinese government
in a recent memorandum by COM
mission Of inquiry sent to Manchuria
and Siberia. A copy received today
in diplomatic circles is dated July %,
1920, and shows it was prepared by
commission of three counsellors to
the Chinese government, consisting of
an American, French and British rep
resentative.
Statement by Commission.
The commission declared that from
evidence collected as to bandit raids
in the vicinity of the railroad, which
spans the Chinese prouipce of Man
churia, it was plain that certain
bands were armed with Japanese
guns" and that a foreign influence
is exercised in favor Of the bandits
for the evident purpose of destroying
Chinese authority"
The Japanese have neglected no oc-
casion, the commission reported. to
intervene in the exploitation, to keep
watch over the traffic, to interfere in
the policing of the railroad and to
install themselves on the grounds and
in the buildings of the company.
Announced Withdrawal of Troops.
Commenting on Japan's announce
ment of her intention of evacuating
the Trans Baikal, the commission
stated that the technical allied bureau
of Hardin was liking measures to
hasten the with--wal of the Japa-
nese troops.
ct is impossible" the memofan-
dunn continued. "to forsee whether
the Japanese will evacuate all the ter
ritory to the west of Hardin and will
retire to Japan all the troops thus
or whether they will main
tain a part of these troops either in
northern or southern Nanchuria.
ut is indispensable to clear the
along the Chinese Eastern
railway of the brigands which infest
it, but it oughs to be added that after
the evidence given by the local au-
thorities this danger is bound to dis
appear as soon as the Japanese have
evacuated the region"

Copyright, 1920.
BERLIN, October 2.-Oficially
and unoficially Germany is little
inclined to join the league of ma
tons, unless the United States
also becomes a signatory power.
At the convention of the German
Peace Association. Herr Won Pritt-
witt, representing the German for

words that Germany was not at all
anxious to join the league as it
is now constituted.

league We might as well wait
until things take a more definite
shape"
.Vorwaerts, the official govern
ment organ, at the same time
comes out with the following re-
marks on Germany's attitude toward
the league of nations:
$50 long as mighty powers like
America and Russia are not MEM
bers of the league it is not a
league IT is a farce. Germany
cannot join until those two ma
tions, particularly, America, be-
come identified with the league"
This, on the whole. is the opinion
of the majority of Germans. The
newspapers are interested in the
opinions of Cox and Harding on
the league, and most of them tell
their readers that Mr.. Cox will not
be elected because he is backing
the league. which is unpopular in
the United States.

Rovnor was on his way to this city
