Tokio, Oct 27 (By Associated Press )-The statement concerning the Japanese warship construction pro gram, which vice-Admiral Kato, g member of the Japanese delegation to the Washington conference, is report ed to have made upon his arrival at San Francisco last week has startled Japanese naval authorities here, ac- cording to the Asahi Shimbun today.
 Particularly surprising, says that newspaper, was the dispatch received here which quoted Admiral Kato aa saying:
 "Japan's financial condition docs not allow the government to expend an enormous amount for naval armament. Consequently the scope of the arma- menta Of the Japanese navy must ba minimized irrespective of the decision Q. tho washington conference"
 Newspaper Comment
 Commenting today upon the alleged statement the Asahi says:
 This i1 quito contrary to what ia often declared by the Japanese navy maintains the principle that the Jap enese government shouId keep in har- rnony with the governments of other powers II sSaasgti tiea Eith the prob l,- tsn.s ssm LIE 5 6f snasnasIs sna ars rati0nA4 1ifnita ton to be arranged among tho bowers eoneerned.
 Japan has no intention whatever to nornimize her naval armament inde- pendently and on her own accord. The above principle of the Japanese gov ernment and of the department of the navy must have been clearly known and perfectly understood by the naval suite which now is in Washington.
