commissions watching the proceedings,
the trials are going on, and last week
there was revived interest because tTo
German lieutenants were arraigned
charged with submarine frightfuiness.
They commanded the U-boat that sank
the British hospital ship Landovery
Castle, and are accused Of attempting
to murder the entire personnel OF the
vessel, including the wounded and the
Red Cross nurses, after they realized
their mistake in sinking the ship. The
defendants refused to testify, but
members of the crew told how 1t was
decided to hide all traces Of the crime
and how the overcrowded lifeboats
were shelled and sunk. The
court then surprised the allied watch
ers by calling a dozen Germans who
testified to alleged British atrocities
at sea. and made the charge that the
steamship Baralong flew the American
flag when 1t sunk the German subma-
rine U-31. Some Of them swore the
British used lifeboats as decOys and
carried troops and munitions aboard
hospital ships All Of this was in

TAKES EXCEPTIONS
TO STATEMENTS
Japanese Delegate to Peace Confer
erce Objects to Lansing's
Book.
(By The Associated Press.)

TOXIC, May ,.-viscount Maxine,
Japanese delegate to the peace con-
ference, takes exception to statements
Of former Secretary of State Lansing.
made in the ex-secretary's recent back
concerning the attitude Of Japan at the
conference.
AS quoted in the ASH Shimbun, Wis
count Maxine, commenting on cabled
resumes of the book, says that Japan
did not force President Wilson's hand,
regarding Shantung by threatening to
bolt the conference, as did Italy.
There were wild rumors abroad IN
Paris to that effect at the time
these threats being to the effect that
Japan would not join the League OF
Nations, but these were mere rumors
and Japan's real actions had nothing
to do with them.
Mr.. Lansing's statement That Japan
attempted to force the adoption of the
racial equality clause by announcing
decision to refuse to sign the peace
treaty is also denied by the japanese
peace delegate. The delegates OF all
the powers represented, says Viscount
Maxine, had no other idea than to Sc
cure the best peace possible and such
guarantee as would make secure the
peace of the world, and anything in
the nature of a threat from anyone
could not be tolerated.
"The question regarding Shantung
and that regarding racial equality can
not be treated in the same light, he
says. "The statement made by Mr..
Lansing in this connection is probably
only his own misconception, as he was
not present at the meeting at which
the final decision regarding Shantung
was arrived at
"The Japanese delegates had twice
interviewed President Wilson in this
matter between April Fl and April 80,
and, after the matter had twice been
submitted to the four powers confer
ence the agreement regarding Shan
tung was arranged. Mr.. Lansing. not
being the highest representative of
America, did not take part in these
meetings and his statements regarding
Shantung are only his own ideas of
what took place.
Viscount Maxine denies fatty that
he and Count Chinda had an inter
view with Mr.. Lansing, while the vis-
count denies any knowledge of any
member of the Japanese delegation
ever limiting at a possible rupture be-
tween Japan and America in event of
the japanese demands being rejected,
as stated in the Lansing memoirs.
Many heated discussions took place
in the conference. says the yiscount,
