By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1921. YOKOHAMA, Japan, September 12. | —A sensational statement of Japan's proposed claims at the disarmament conference, made by Prof. Arta Ninu- gawa, i8 receiving the enthusiastic support of military circles. Nina- gawa 18 a professor of law and diplo- matic history at Doshisha University and received the decoration of the | order of merit for his services as ad- | viser of the army in the Russo-Jap- ancse war. He was an adjuster of forelgn property at Port Arthur &nd Later he traveled in Europe as a| diplomatic adviser. i Ninagawa recommends that the | other powers be obliged to limit the sise of their respective armies and navies to the size Japan decides to ' lbu necessary. America is to be pro- ' hibited from surpassing Japan's eight-eight warship program. Amer- ican warships are to be prohibited from using the Panama canal. Great Britain's military operations in the orlent are to be entrusted to Japan, “as hithert Army and Na Ninagawa explains that the Japanese larmy and navy are already at a_minimpm requisite for holding Korea, K- ung and Formosa. “Japan's nece: at the conference,” says Ninagawa, “are, first, the insistence on abolishing arma- ment in the Pacific islands of Hawai and Guam, a standing menace to Japan second, the maintenance of the ope: door in China and prohibiting China's starting boycotts: third, a refusal t consider accomplished facts and d manding that other powers make annu:. treaties for concessions in China shou the latter mention the twenty-one d mands; fourth, a solution of the Jap anese ‘immigration problems in Cali fornia, Canada and Australia; fifth, other powers to pledge non-interference in Japan's warlike actions in Siberia which are solely in self-defense, as | Britain is doing in Afghanistan, Persia, | Mesopotamia, and America in Mexico, | and, eixth, to dispose of the Man-| churian problem by recognizing Russia | at Minimum. and also the validity of the Russo-Jap- anese agreement."” Ninagawa says that Japan should con- vince the powers that her actions in j Manchuria are for the best of all pow: ers concerned pending the establish. ment of a solid government in nuusu,l —_— SCORES CANAL PROJECT. E. H. Outerbridge Says St. Law- rence Scheme Is to Gain Rights. I NEW YORK, September 12.—E. H.| Outerbridge, chairman of the port of New York authority, in a letter to Darwin P. Kingsley, president of the state chamber of commerce, made public yesterday, declared that the project to canalize the St. Lawrence river was, in his opinion, sponsored by interests seeking to ac power rights. The ship canal features of the proj- ect, he asserted, were capitalized to attract support from the middle west. The report of the engineers of the International Joint Commission, he said, was very involved and mislead- ing in the way it was drawn. That report, he added, speaks of the project as one of navigation facilities, with power as a by-product, making no reference to the fact that the depth of great lakes harbors and channels does not average twenty feet. Con- sequently, ocean vessels could not get | into any one of the ports or navigate | the lakes, he said, until the channels and ports were deepened at an esti- mated cost of $500,000,000 to $1,000,- 000,000. - The infernational engineers esti- mated the cost of the canal and pow- er plants at $252,000,000. Mr. Outer- bridge said that ocean steamers of 10,000 to 20,000 tons could not, in his opinion, navigate the canal as pro- posed without danger. SHIPS LEAVE NEWPORT.
