TOKYO, Nov. 21.-Japanese DO
litical experts close to the govern
ment asserted Thursday the North
China situation has developed into
an explosive issue within the Tokyo
government.
Dispatches from China showed
that the scheme for the declaration
Of autonomy by the five provinces
In North China under the protec-
ton Of the japanese army had mis-
carried.
However, although japanese civ
ilian leaders were temporarily re-
strain.ng the action of the japanese
militarists IN China, a strong ele-
ment Of the army was insisting that
the North China autonomy plan be
carried through.
According to the political experts
the issue will Ie debated in a meet
ing Of the cabinet Friday.
1t is expected Koki Hirota. the
foreign minister, will be pitted
against Gen. Yoshiyuki Kawashima,
minister Of war, in the debate.
Experts said that the life of the
cabinet might possibly depend upon
the outcome.
Hirota Is expected TO support the
{ mpromise suggested by Ambas-
Sador Akira Ar.yoshi following his
interview Wednesday with Gener-
aliSSimo Chang Kai-Shek, by which
Marking would be permitted to re-
tain q considerable degree Of SOW
ereignty In North China.
The newspaper Asahi asserted that
Ambassador AriyoShi, whom the
militarists long have accused OF

Official sources In Shanghai ex-
dressed the fear that the halt was

and Chinese quarters agreed that 1t
was definite.
The japanese army's high COM
mand IN Tokyo instructed It's sub
ordinates on the Asiatic continent
that officers conniving in Chinese

ing their authority.
Japanese military leaders In China
were reported to have told Chinese
national leaders to undertake taerr
own reforms in North China. intro
ducing into that area q regime and
a public attitude more acceptable
TO the japanese.
Certain Chinese officials, how
ever, olnted out that the Jap.
anese army on the continent has
often exercised independence Of

the same independence might be
demonstrated again.
