FAR EAST FARLEY
| To MEET IN JAPAN
First Conference of Kind
Nest of Pacific to Convene
I at Kyoto October 20.
~ the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press. !
KYOTO, Japan, october 18.-The
first international conference on Pacific
ocean snd Far Eastern questions ever
held on that side of the Pacific, where
the most acute of those questions orig
mate, win meet in this ancient capital
of the Empire Of .NSpan october %.
This Is the third bAuniaf conference
of the Institute of Pacific Relations,
which will last almost two weeks,
closing November 8.
The conference is entirely unofficial
and seeks to formulate no policies and
to reach no decisions; but in view of
the lively and controversial nature of
presert-day Far Eastern questions its
deliberations and researches are ex-
pected to develop spirited debate. It is
certain, for example, that the vexed
problems of Manchuria will come be-
fore the gathering, and it is certain
that at least two of the three nations
most vitality concerned in that region,
over which war clouds have been low
ering all Summer, will take part in the
Kyoto diScusSions-Japan and China
The third party, Russia, may be there
also.
No Officials Present.
No delegate to the conference holds
official position in his own country, but
: its participants include men and
women of international reputation, and
its proceedings win be watched keenly
by the chancelleries of most of the coun-
tries bordering on the Pacific. The two
