TOXIC. May 2l.-Japan is to evac- uase Siberia and restore Stantung to China --at the earliest possible mo- rsent.~ according to a statement by an official of the foreign office fol- lowing adjournment today of the Co., lonian conference which has been in session for a week. This, he declared, meant that there would be mo change in Japan's fundamental policy in the Far East
 The government has decided not to puhlish any of the conclusions reached by the conference at present, huf it was decided that the results, had been so gratifying that similar gatherings may be held annually.
 The sessions were private.
 While officials generally declined to say whether Japan would take any new positive steps in Siberia and Shantunf. declaring that this de, pended on circumstances, they voiced the hope that China was wiling to discuss arrangements for restoration of the province. They emphasized that Japan sought nothing in ex- change. but must have assurances that Japanese residents and interests in Shantung would be protected.
 Ii was added that the absence of responsible authority in China with which to deal was the greatest handi- cap
 Meanwhile newspapers insist thet Japan will withdraw her troops from the Shantung railroad to TsinS-T Tau without awaiting Chinese acceptance of Japan's standing restoration offer
 It is declared this withdrawal Will be carried out with an aim to hastet- xsag arrangements for the relinquish- .ment of the province to China Tie newspapers also declare that the government is arranging to evacuate all of Siberia except points Tn Sag halien province which were occupied because of the Nikolaievsk massacre.
 The Kokumin Shimbun military or gan. attacks the government, which it says is trying to create the false impression that it will establish constructive policy in Siberia bv withdrawing it's troops
 According to the Nichi Nichi Shim- bun. Japan's conditions of withdraw from Shantung include assurance or the maintenance of peace and order in the three Far Eastern provinces, Sstfh safeguards against establish hent of communism and protection of Janan-s economic interests.

tRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

FL PASO, Tex, May 22-Dr. l. w. Tappan, United States public health service, who returned late today from the Navajo reservation in northwestern New Mexico, says there Is serious danger of the typhus epi- demic spreading over the entire res ervation. Though but 16 deaths have been officially reported, Dr. Tappan says there is reason to believe many more Indians have died and been buried in remote places without the deaths being reported. Practically all members of the tribe, Dr. Tappan says, are infected with the parasite which is the carrier of the disease and the manner in which the Indians live. crowded together in small huts, called hogans, makes it difficult to enforce cleanliness.
 A delousing plant and hospital have been established at Shiprock agency in New Mexico and a corps of gov ernment nurses have been ordered to the stricken area. The Indian huts are being burned as rapidly as pos sib1e and new clothing and blankets is being provided
 When the disease first made its ap- pearance it was diagnosed as influ- enza and a number of deaths occurred before it's true nature was discovered
 Dr. Joseph Goldberger. United States public health service, a noted authority on typhus, has been sent to Shiprock from Washington and is in charge of the fight against the disease.
 There are approximately 30.00O In dians on the reservation which covers an area of nearly 15,000 square miles

BOSTON, May Senator Lodge, in letter read today at a. mass meet ing in which reduction of armaments by international agreement was en- dorsed, said President Harding has this matter much at heart and I am sure you may trust in his doing all he can to forward it.
 Asserting that he himself was in favor of an international agreement for a general reduction of armaments, he continued:
 "A reduction of armaments by one great maritime power and continued increase by another would in my judgment lead to war rather than to peace; but of the value of interna : tional reduction of armaments there can be no question. It is something all must believe in and favor on al occasions"
 Senator Walsh of Montana, who addressed the meeting, said, he was strongly in favor of reduction anC also of calling an international con- ference. He asserted he did not be- lieve the United States navy should be reduced. but that we sAould have a fleet t1as big as the biggest

.EXEMPTS D|ST|LLERS

IRepubiicanA A. p. Leased wIrel

WASHINGTON. May 22.-Distillers are held exempt from extra taxes on liquor withdrawn from warehouses for non beverage purposes if diverted by theft to illegal uses under an opinion by Attorney General Daugh- erty submitted to Secretary Mellon and made public tonight The opin- ion was given in response to re quest of the secretary for a ruling as to the liability of distillers for the SOL called differential tax on liquor when diverted from non n-beverage purposes. The differential tax on distilled spirits is s4 20 gallon.
 In the absence of intention by the distiller to evade the law, Mir. Daugh- erty ruled. the differential tax could not be applied if the liquor was ac- tually withdrawn for non beverage purposes.
 However" he said, 'in cases where the distilled spirits are with drawn for non beverage purposes and are subsequently, diverted to beverage purposes with the know ledge or connivance of the distiller. it is my opinion that the distiller is liable for the so-called differential tax if there is shown to be reason able presumption of knowledge on his part that such distilled spirits would be diverted to other than non-bev- craze purposes by those coming into possession of them"
