Th e declared, meant that tiere o “no change in Japan's fundamenta | bolicy,” in the far east. The government has decide bublish any of the conclusion d by the conference for ti but it was declared that the had been so gratifying that similar atherings may be held annually to ecure co-ordination between the va- fous branches of government at home nd in other parts of the far east. Th onferees included high Japanese ilitary and civil authorities from Si- | peria, Manchuria, Korea and Kwanz | ung, and was presided over by | Premier Hara. The sessions were pri- yate.

The impression prevails in Tokio hat Japan has actually inaugurated egotiations with the Chinese gov- rnment, though for the moment here is a question as to the recogni- ion of that government. Meanwhile he leading Japanese newspapers in- ist that Japan will withdraw her roops from the Shantung railroad o Tsingtau Without awaiting China’'s cceptance of Japan's standing offer 0 open restoration negotiations. 1 is declared this withdrawal will b arried out with an aim to hastening rrangements for the actual relin- quishment of the province to China. | Will Evacuate Siberia. | The newspapers also declare the ‘overnment is arranging to evacuate he whoe of Siberia, with the excep- ion of the points in Sakhalin prov- nce which were occupied because of he Nikolaievsk massacre. i The Kokumin Shimbun, the mili- ary organ, attacks the government, hich, it says, is trying to create he false impression that it will es- ablish a constructive policy in Si- beria by withdrawing its troops. It ys the military leaders are fearful hat such an evacuation will lead o anarchistic conditions inimical to lapan and the other powers. The ewspaper also reports that Japan | is to make a loan to the Chinese [Eastern railway. ) According to the Nichi Nichi Shim- bun, Japan's donditions of Wwith- dfawal from Shantung include as- Isirance of the maintenance of peace and order in the three far eastern provinces, with safeguards against lestablishment of communism and protection of Japan's economic in- terests. The Nichi Nichi adds that. to “protect Korean” from a million lor more Koreans in Manchuria and | Siberia who are in a state of un- an is seeking a special | ment with China in regard to | he extension of comsular and police rights, and also a_stricter control over the discontented Koreans. Simul- [taneously, the newspaper says. eco- nomic measures will be adopted for the benefit of the destitute Koreans in Manchuria to prevent them be- coming affected by bolshevism.

[New Plan for Siberian Lines Now Predicted in Japan. BY JUNIUS B. WOOD. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright. 1921. TOKIO, Japan, May 23.—Changes in the interallied management of the Stberian railroads are forecast simul- taneously with the announcement that | Japan is planning a big loan to the Chinese eastern road. which is inter- fering with the ambition of the South Manchurian railroad to mak Dairen (Port Arthur) the only St berian shipping port to America, Japan and Europe. Reports emphasiz- ing Japan's readiness to make the loun were persistent in official circles for several weeks preceding the pres- ent cabinet conference, and it was also said that the Japanese ministry | g was determined to withdr: the | troops from Siberia and use other | W mathods to control the one transpor- | tation artery of Siberia Recently Secretary Noda of the | government railways went to Vliadi- | '\:uok and conferred with Charles | tive on the interallied committee. and with other members. Japan has re- peatedly urged that the broad gauge line between Changchung and Harbin be changed to the narrow south Man- chgirian gauxe. Shipping is return- :ng o Vladivostok since conditions there have become settied, and the port is competing seriously with Dairen. The April returns show that more than 21,000 tons of beans, bean cake and wheat were handled by the Chinese Eastern between the Ussuri river and Viadivostok. CLUBWOMEN ELECT.
