About Reorgani-
cation

TOKYO, July 1.-tP-The Japa-
nese government will fall probably
tomorrow with resignation of Pre-
mier Baron Tanaka and his cabinet.

ton, liberal party, and home minis
ter in the 1926 government, would
be requested by Emperor Hirohito
to form a cabinet with Baron Kiju-
70 Shidehara-Japanese ambassa-
dor at Washington in 1922-as for
eign minister. Admiral Hyo Taxa
rabe was expected to be minister Of

The crisis is the outgrowth Of the
assassination of Marshal Chang Tso
Lin. defeated northern China war
lord, last year at Mukden while In
territory over which Japan acted
as protector. Investigation Of the
assassination absolved japanese
military officers Of blame, it was
understood, but punishment was in
sisted upon for certain officers for
failure to notify the home office Of
withdrawal of their supervision on
the night Of Chang's arrival.
Another contributory factor was
the handling Of ratification Of the
Kellogg anti-war pact, it's friends
claiming it was bungled by allowing
so much opposition to materialize
This opposition principally was GEN.
