JAPAN bEL|TTLES
MANEUVERS TALK.
Nations Own War Games to
Be Far From U. S., Says
Naval Minister.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TOXIC, May 16.-A spokesman for
the Japanese naval Office said today
he believed naval circles In the United
States and Japan were not alarmed
over each others maneuvers in the
Pacific Ocean.
The spokesman, Adjt. to Admiral
Mineo Osumi minister of the navy,
explained that the Japanese Navy's
war games this year would not come
within 1000 miles of the United
States Pacific Coast and probably not
within that distance of either Hawaii
or Alaska.
His reference to 1900 miles" was
prompted by the statement of Claude
A. Swanson, the United States Secre-
tary Of the Navy, that Americans
would feel no concern If the Japanese
fleet activities remained that distance
away from American shores.
Description Is Refused.
While declining to describe the ex-
act area in which the japanese
maneuvers will take place. the ad-
jutant said:
TT can be said they will not ap-
proach the 180th meridian (the in
ternational date line). Likewise, they
contain nothing like the United States
Navys Midway fight, because Japan
has no islands suitable like Hawaii
and Midway. Fogs in the Summer
and Fall eliminate the possibility of
such flights to the Kurile Islands,"
(The Kuriles are Japanese islands
in the North Pacific, just south of
Siberia, and some 1000
miles from the Alaskan coast)
&The naval officer said the only
time the Japanese Navy had been
anxious concerning the Midway fight
was when early reports limited that
some Of the planes had failed to
arrive on schedule. 1t was relieved,
he said, to learn the feet was safe.
Worry Is Doubted.
IT do not believe naval leaders in
Japan and the United States are wor-
ried over each others maneuvers," he
continued. I'VE realize the necessity
of such training and also that the
range of modern warships
is narrowing the oceans which sepa-
rate U.s."
The adjutant said the Japanese
will begin late in July with
training for reserves and
small units and conclude with major
battle problem in october. The budget,
he said, would preclude extended
cruising.
Vernacular papers interpreted Sec
retary Swanson's reference to the
180th Meridian as the limit of the
United States maneuvers as a sugges-
ton that the international date line
divide the American and Japanese
spheres in the Pacific Ocean.
The newspaper Toxic Asahi dis
played cartoon picturing Uncle Sam
playing with warships behind wire
fence labeled international date line"

AS BATTLES NEAR
Most Exciting ManeuverS
Under Way-Attackers
Steam South.

ABOARD BATTIESHIP PENNSYL-
VANIA IN HAWAIIAN WATERS,
May l6-All vessels of the United
States Nays white fleet" moved
seaward from Pearl Harbor today, the
black fleet" bore south from its base
near the Aleutians-and the most
spectacular part of the sixteenth an
nual naval maneuverS was under way.
These l53 ships, with their hun
dreds Of fast planes and hordes Of
move on a tactical chessboard Of
100000 square miles, seeking to
checkmate each other and putting to
practical test the training and abilities
of thousands of officers and men.
Many Islands in Chain.
The Hawaiian Islands-not only
those garden spots known as the
paradise of the Pacific" but the
chain Of rocks, atolls and outposts
extending to midway and almost to
the international dateline-will be the
scene of these dramatic games"
These are the stepping stones of the
Pacific. and along this 1.40O-mile line
Of dots on the map the white fleet"
patrolled today after having cut short
its visit to Pearl Harbor and Hon.
olulu.
In this. strange little frequented
area about which many tales Of TO.
nance and shipwreck tragedy have
been written, birdmen. seamen and
undersea strategists will play a mil
itary game with unusual phases that
set 1t apart from all previous Navy
maneuvers. The areas naval baptism
will be given by force with the
greatest power, mobility and tactical
breadth of any the United States ever
sent to sea.
Extensive landing parties. record
breaking aircraft flights, cruiser, sub
marine and battleship inf1ltration will
be used by the Navy in measuring
these stepping stones" from Pearl
Harbor all along the string of islands
to the international date line.
Expert Training to Result.
For training purposes, navigation
problems involved in maneuvering
through this area will present condi-
tions to tax the wits Of the most ex-
pert.
In general strategy, Admiral Harris
Laning and Vice Admiral Arthur j.
Hepburn as opposing fleet COM
manders will have real work to do.
Laning commands the white feet"
main battle force of the Navy. Hep
burn Is directing operations Of the
swift-striking "black fleet" now mov-
ing southwark from somewhere near
the Aleutian Islands. His exact
whereabouts are shrouded in secrecy.
Watching them as chief umpire is
Admiral ]. r. Reeves, commander in
chief of the Navy.
Indications are that the maneu-
vers will develop rapidly, forcing tao
ticians and commanders to proceed
not only carefully, but at top speed.
