Japanese Seek
To Sidetrack
Far East Issue

one of the. most daring and skillful
diplomatic thrusts in the history of re-
cent international relations.
Nor is it alone the American reaction
to this gesture which must be consid-
cred. The Japanese public will read
that Baron Kato in his statement has
proposed program Of the limitation
Of naval construction which goes be-
yond the limit of expectation in his
own country. He will be very severely
criticized in many quarters for such
proposal. But if in addition to this
proposal the representatives Of the
United States in the Washington con-
ference insist on further concession
persist in raising the Chinese and ST.
herian questions, nothing is more likely
than that the reaction at home may
consolidate all elements within the
japanese Empire.
Move Has Double Purpose
In word, the first Japanese move in
this great game of chess which is the
Washington conference at one time en-
visages undermining the diplomatic ad-
vcrsary abroad and fortifying the Jap
aEeSe pOSlClOn at nome.
For those to whom parallel is im.-
portant, the analogy between the stu
alton Mr.. Wilson found himself in in
the opening days of the Paris confer
ence and that in which the Japanese
have put Mr.. Hughes is striking. In
Paris every kind of pressure was put
upon Mr.. Wilson to postpone discussion
Of the League of Nations proposal un-
til the terms of peace were written.
Now, the Japanese design is manifestly
to prevail upon Mr.. Hughes to postpone
the Far Eastern discussion until the
question of the limitation of armaments
is disposed of.
Mr.. Wilson resisted the European
maneuver, which, to be sure, found
American support. Mr.. Hughes, now
at the outset of the conference, is
called upon to defend his program in q
similar fashion. The Japanese have
Carried the war into Africa" 1t now

tions in the Far East in the same way

War, and with the acquisition Of Shan
ltung, which she took over from the Ger
mans in 1914, she included in her
spheres some of the most important
sections of China Japan considered
that her title to these spheres Of in
huence was strengthened by the Lam
sing-Ishii agreement Of 1917, whereby
Mr.. Wilson admitted that territorial
propinquity gave priority Of interest to
Japan in those portions Of the continent
nearest that country. Certainly the
agreement was used to strengthen ia
pans hold in China and helped estab-
lish Japan's spheres of interest.
That France is now willing to aban-
don her sphere is particularly signifi
can't in view of the effect that this pol
icy may have upon Japan and Great
Britain. Although there is no animos-
| ity on theepart of France toward Japan.
| it is we'll know that certain lines of
French policy have been sharply at
, odds with British policy, and it is not
inconceivable that this factor may af-
feet in part Frances present attitude.
If France is willing to give up her
| sphere Of influence, and in that manner
support Americas general program,
both Japan and Great Britain will be
put in position of having to follow
ner example.
France an Active Factor
In other words, it is considered in
we'll informed circles that just as Ad
miral Kato's statement on Tuesday that
Japan was prepared to cut her eight
eight naval program has brought
| sharply before the world her readi-
ness to cooperate to the full in the
matter of naval reduction, so Frances
willingness to abandon her spheres Of
influence in China shows her desire
to take leading part in the success
full settlement of the Eastern problems
This attitude of France is expected
to 60 far toward removing the mis-
apprehension that has generally ex-
listed in this country that France was
coming to the conference ready only
to insist on the safety Of France
against future attacks from. Germany.
1t indicates that France is fully con-
scious that while the problems of
Europe and Asia are closely inter
twined the present conference is called
primarily to deal with the questions
of the East. If France is ready to
back Americas policy to the extent
of abandoning her spheres of influence
in China she will, in the belief of OBJ
servers, have taken an initial step that
will go far toward clearing up the
difficulty in the East.
