specific program for the solution OF
economic problems nor did he an
nounce his plans for political re-
forms. Throughout the conference
he explained that lack of informa-

ing direct questions on domestic
affairs.
Discussing the Americans direc-
tive to abolish Shintoism as a state
religion, Shidehara said, "Shinto
is not exactly a state religion and
I don't think it is utra-nationalistic,
but someone has used it for ultra
nationalistic purposes.
Answering a question on politics,
the Premier said he knew of no
plans for the organization Of Com
munist parties. He praised tn e
American occupation of Japan say
ing that $50 far the occupation
forces have been doing their work
excellently."

Finance Ministry did not know
that the Army or Navy had a sin

Part of the reserves were found
in the Army and Navy buildings.
American authorities found other
stocks of precious metals in mill
tary arsenals and warehouses at
Tokyo and Osaka. Headquarters
said the seizure was made quietly
in order to prevent possible disap-
pearance of the treasure.
In support of the new Premier S

believed if Japan had possessed

On the same subject, Shidehara
told correspondents he "can not

United States.''
Shidehara said he did not be-
lieve that Japanese economic ex-
pansion in the Asiatic continent
was a cause of the Pacific conflict.
