To Conference
Delegates From Far Eastern
Republic of Chila Ar
rive i'm Washington to
Protest Against Japanese
Declare Liking for Soviets
Announce Also They Seek to
Interest American Busi-
ness Men i'm Siberia

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4 (By Tho As
sociated Press).--Russia appeared at
the Washington conference tonight in
the arrival OF special deputation from
the Far Eastern Republic of Chita to
lay before the powers here the plea of
that government for insistence in Sc
curing immediate withdrawal of Jap
ance troops from Siberia. Other pur-
poses Of the visit of the delegation, &C.
cording TO Its members, are to open
trade relations with foreign countries
and to secure recognition for tho
Chita administration.
There can be no development Of tho
country or of trade until the Japanese
troops are withdrawn" the delegation
declared in statement tonight, "as
for obvious reasons the presence OF
these troops prevents the utilization Of
our natural resources. The very name
OF the republic signifies the Importance
OF the Washington conference for its
people. The delegation hopes to be able
to present its case to the conference in
order to defend the interests of the
Tar Eastern republic"
The delegation is headed by Alex
ander A. Yazikoff, adviser Of the Far
Eastern government on economic mat
ters; b. E. Skvirsky, former Vice Min
lister for Foreign Affairs; P. N. Kara
vaetf, economist and editor, and Gustav
J. Farman. The deputation left Chita
in mid-October and has been travelling
steadily since, coming by Shanghai and
Vancouver.
Chairman Yazikoff in the formal
statement Of the party, said that the
united States government had invited
Japan to send troops to Siberia with
American troops to aid the Czecho-
Slovaks and that all the powers had
guaranteed their word that there would
be no interference with the sovereignty
or integrity Of Russia.
He said that the time had come for
the powers to redeem this promise and
to SEQ to it that the Japanese troops
left Siberia SO that the tdisunity of
part Of Siberia which is artHcally kept
UP by the Japanese troops" may be re-
moved.
Mr.. Yazikoif claimed that the real
reason while the recent conference be-
tween Chita and Japanese representa-
tives at Dairen was failure was that
Japan refused to entertain the Chita
suggestion that evacuation of Siberia
be made a condition of the proposed
trade agreement. He explained that
the Chita government was q coalition
government composed Of Bolsheviki
and non-partisans and added:
"Our policy is one of cordiality with
the Soviets, because we believe the
Soviet is regenerating Russia"
The delegation, he added, would aim
to open trade relations with American
business interests and to interest
Americans in the development OF the
immense resources in Siberia.
