ARMY GENERAL STAFF
CONTROLS JAP POLICIES
No Steps Have Been Taken to
Remove Jap Troops From
Parts of Siberia
BY Henry w. Kinney

limited Prosy staff Correspondent
Tokyo, August 5.-While 1t was
given out definitely as a result OF the
cabinet and foreign office conference
which ended Il few weeks ago, that
steps would soon be taken for the
removal Of Japanese troops from all
parts OF Siberia, except the Amur
region and Saghalien, no steps APP
pear to have been taken to carry out
the evacuation.
Furthermore, no negotiations nave
been entered into with the govern
ment at Chita. although 1t was stated
that such would be taken up imme-
diately, to be followed instanter with
the withdrawal of troops as soon as
Chlta promised to undertake preser-
walton OF order in Siberia when the
japanese pulled out.
At first glance it would seem as II
tho overthrow of the Chitn forces at
Vladivostok by Kappelitees, follow
ing Immediately upon Japan's an
nouncement Of her intention to with
draw her. troops, might furnish the
reason for tho pOstpOnemcnt OF such
action; but while the war depart
ment may look upon this as an excel
lent excuse for staying tin Siberia. 1t
was stated unofrically but on I'M
questioned authority at the Foreign
Office, that this event would not be
allowed to interfere with the plans
decided on.
1t seems apparent that this Is an
other case OF the dual diplomacy
which has been the curses OF Japan
for many years past, where the Minis
try may undertake, in perfect good
faith, to carry out some course OF ac-
ton, only to have it's plans entirely
frustrated by the quiet but effec-
tive stubborncss of the general staff
which still has the power to act
quite independently.
If no change Occure In the situa-
ton very soon, it is apparent that the
general staff and the militarists will
have demonstrated that. lin spite OF
all that may be said to the contrary
they still rule Japan. 1t cannot be
doubted that the Hara administration
was sincere enough in its wish to ef'
feet evacuation, as the Siberian expe.
dition has ever been its most vulner.
able point. The entire venture has
been a most unpopular one with the
Dccple at large and, one of the most
telling weapons used by the Opposi'
ton.
