DAILY NEWS LETTER
By MILES w. VAUGHN (UnIted Press Stan COrresr,OnIent

Tokio, (UP)--The Imperial Jap anese government continues to fol- low with the utmost care the atti- tude of the American press to. wards the Sino-Japanese conflict. Regular reports, including clip pings of news dispatches from the Far East. cartoons. Washington dispatches. outlining the attitude of the government, editorials and general comment, are sent the in- formation bureau of the foreign office by consulates and the Washington embassy.
 For weeks resumes of the edi- torials of the principal news papers were cabled the foreign office daily and translated into Japanese by the information bu- reau and distributed to Japanese newspapers for their information. Comments on Attitude
 The chief of the Information bureau. Toshio ShIratori. fre- of the American newspapers in his daily press conference with foreign correspondents here and does not hesitate to criticize the news papers and news agencies repre- scented by the various reporters at. tending the conference.
 The general tenor of the spokes- mans remarks is that the Ameri- can newspapers have no ''rear' understanding of the essentials of the Far Eastern situation and are making the same mistake" as those indicated in the state papers of Secretary Stimson.
 The Mistakes
 These mistakes, the Japapese believe, are in the basic idea that tho Kellogg pact, the nine power treaty, and the covenant of the league of nations can be applied to the Sino-Japanese conflict It, eraliy and in their ideal sense. The Japanese conceptions that Japan has not dlsobeyed the spirit in which she adhered to these treaties and agreements and that she has not upset the machinery created for the peaceful settIe- ment of international disputes. Japan continues to contend that the real error fin the American conception of the situation is in considering China as q modern state. with the same status as the United States.
