CALL CONFERENCE
Japan's Position In Far East
VIII Be Examined.
May Remodel Policy in Siberia
and Also in China.

ment in Eastern Republic.

TAKE UP SHANTUNG QUESTION

Toxic, May determination of
Japan's position relative to the entire
field of questions affecting the Far
East is the object of a colonial con-
ference to be held here soon, accord
ing to authoritative information. This
conference, which possibly may re-
model Japan's policy in Siberia and in
China, will be attended by the high
est japanese civil and military Of
ffcials holding positions in China,
siberia, Korea, Shantung, Kwang-
tung and Manchuria. One of the
principal subjects to be considered is
said to DE the complete military
evacuation of Siberia. The present
tendency of the government is de-
scribed as being favorable to the re-
moval of the troops there.
SI1antnng Question Important
! Forecasts of the work of the con-
ference also emphasize the Importance
placed upon the question of Shan
hung, in which China persists in de-
.clining~~to enter into negotiations for
the restoration to her of that district.
In an attempt to hasten a solution of
the question it is said Japan may de-
eide to withdraw her troops from the
STsinan-Fu railroad but reports that
this country intends to release the
entire peninsula of Shantung uncon-
ditionaIIy are authoritatively de-
scribed as ''nonsensicaP' as Japan
probably will insist that Tsing-T Tau
be made an international port. The
Chinese question, as a whole, con-
tinues to be Japan's greatest problem,
but there is said to be no possibility
of recognition being given the south
Chinese government at Canton, of
which DR.. Sun Vat Sen is president.
At least no move will be made be-
fore a consultation is had with the
leading powers. There are indications
also that Japan Is seriously examining
the possibility of a trade agreement
with the far eastern republic which
has it's seat of government at Chlta.
Americas attitude towards Japan
activities in the far east is deeply
occupying the Japanese, who appar-
emily are trying to understand what
significance lies behind the recent
note sent to the powers by Secretary
Hughes relative to the disposition of
mandates over islands in the Pacific.
To Get Americas Views.
. Endeavors will be made it is de-
clared, to determine Americas exact
intentions in the far east and Japan
is said to be disposed frankly to out
line her own attitude. The foreign
America of Admiral Uriu, who is a
close friend of Secretary Hughes and
Secretary Weeks. The trend of pub
lie discussion relatively to relations
between America and Japan is dis
tinctly away from the immigration
problem and toward the .vaster field

mittee aggregatfng s100,000,000 over
house provision of $396, 100000, or al
most three times the pre-war naval

really called for about $3.50, 100000.
Asserting that the Japanese navy
had only $4,000 to $4,000 men and the
British about 100000, with more ships
to man and a larger service to be per-
formed, Senator Borah said it ap-
