 Washington, October 2. - (UP) - American participa- tion in consultations with the nations who signed the nine power treaty appeared cer- tain today. It would give this government common cause with the League of Nations towards halting Japan's undeclared war on China.
 The United States already had acted once and with dispatch to fulfill the implied promise of Pres. ident Roosevelt that the United States would support concrete and practicable measures by League powers to end international anar. chy and treaty destruction. Observ- CTS generally assumed that this government would act again with equal promptness and vigor as soon aS another opportunity arises.
 That opportunity was expected in c formal invitation for this coun- try to participate in consultations with the nine power treaty sigma tories. The League of Nations as- scmbly, after condemning Japan for violation of the nine power treaty and the Kellogg. .Briand Anti. War Pact, requested League poweri who also arc signatories of the nine power treaty to initiate consulta- tions regarding the violation of that pact
