more fully views of the administration
as to desirability of reviewing at the

There seemed little doubt among Off
Gals here, however, that the full pro-
gram would be carried out.
Tokyo dispatches have clearly in
dictated the division of opinion in Japan
as to the wise course of that govern
ment in relation to the proposed Far
Eastern discussions and there was no
evidence of any desire to press for an
early reply on the Far East confer
ence. 1t was clear that officials ex-

Japs See China as Menace.
Tokyo, July 19.-Japan seems an en-
pire divided on the great issues created
by the summons of President Harding
to conference on disarmament and
Far Eastern problems.

the bureaucrats, there is fear that the
proposed conference will be dominated
by the Anglo-Saxons and may result
in strangling Japan's political and eco
nomic development in Asia.
On the other side, powerful liberal
group demands Japan enter the DELHI
erations fearlessly, submitting her
wants resolutely, combating for them
with confidence, and not opposing just
claims. Haggling and pickering, they
insist, will ruin the cause of Japan.
Both camps agree Japan is facing a
crisis requiring tact and large vision.
Many members of the privy council
according to the well-informed news
paper Chugai Shogyo Shimpo, contend
that the proposal to discuss problems
and policies of the Far East indicates
cooperation between the United States
and Great Britain in an attempt to set
tie international questions favorably
for them, an indication of which was
to be seen in the attitude of the Eng
lish toward the Anglo-Japanase az

Secret Purpose on China Seen.
The invitation to China to join in
the conference, it is further urged, Is
additional evidence in support of the
theory of secret purpose on the part
of the Anglo-Saxon nations in calling
the conference.
Japan should make participation
conditional on the settlement of all
questions between Japan and the Uni
ted States including opening the eco
nomic door of all territories in the
Pacific to Orientals"

Gus INSTRUMENTATION If we are
isolated we need not necessarily fear
it. 1t is more important for us to de-
sroy the national disease of fear and
suspicion and achieve our resurrec-
tion."
1t has been suggested that Premier
Takashi Hara should go to the Wash
ington conference, but it is believed
that his lack of knowledge of the Eng
lish language would disqualify him.
