The Open Door in China, and, China’s terrijorial integrity are, of course, old questions. They are the ones in which the real statemanship,| of the members of the conference | may best be displayed. On them de- pends whether China is to become am independent nation, or whether the; special interests which virtually ren-) der China impotent and helpless are to continue their hold. In this is involved the abolition of all extra. territorial jurisdiction, the control of maritime customs by the British, the!’ French contro] of the Chinese post-'| office and the Lansing-Ishii agree- ment recognizing Japan's ‘special! interests” in China. These are in- finite ramifications. The queston of the territorial in- tegrity of Asiatic Russia will bring to the front Japan’s occupation of the Maritime Provinces of eastern Siberia and of Sakalin Island, where} Japan is operating extensive fish- | eries. Japanese colonization in Man-/ churia and her occupancy of Vladvos- tok are also involved.
