VISCOUNT KATO HEADS NEW TOKIO CABINET Accepts Command of Prince Regent } to Form Government to { Succeed Kiyoura. MAKES TENTATIVE LIST Shidehara ConsiGered for Foreign Minister. By the Associated Press. TOKIO, June 9.—Viscount Taka- akira Kato tonight accepted the com- mand of Prince Regent Hirohito to form a new cabinet, asking, however, that he be given a few days. His ministry will succeed that of former Premier Kiego Kiyoura, and will be 4§ coalition affair, according to the vernacular newspapers. The tentative line-up of depart- mental ministers, as forecast by the ncludes two members of the kai party, which is considered as absolute master of the Diet; one member of the Kakushin (reform) Club, and otfier ministers drawn from the Kenselkai party, of which Premier Kato is the leader, except in thé foreign office and the war and navy departments. It is considered probable that nister of War Ugaki will _be the ofiy holdover from the Kiyoura cabinet who will find a place in Premier Kato's ministry. Former Envoys Mentioned. Baron K. Shidehara, former am- dassador to the United States, and Viscount Kikujiro Ishii, former minis- ter to Paris and special envoy to the United States in 1917 when the famous Ishii-Lansing agreement was signed, are considered the likeliest candidates for the foreign office portfolio. Tt is believed in Some ver, that _Baron who held the post under Premier Kiyoura, may retain his position. Premier Kato conferred last night with Baron Shidehara. It is under- stood that if the latter does not take the foreign office, he will return to ‘Washington the Japanese ambassa- dor. Close family connections be- tween the new premier and Baron Shidehara, who married sisters, is dpnsidered a strong reason which may gruse the latter to decide not to en- ter the cabinet. His inclusion in the niew cabinet, it is feared, mighy em- barrass the premier and provide a basis for the charge that the cabinet was under the control of the Iwasaki interests, which are linked with the powerful Mitsubishi Company, one of the largest concerns in Japan. Mes- dames Kato _and Shidehara are daughters of Baron Iwaski, who is dircctor of the Mitsubishi Company. Consults Other Leaders. On leaving the imperial palace, where the regent commanded him to form a new cabinet, Viscount Kore- Kivo Takahashi and Ki Inukai, lead- ars, respectively, of the Seiyukal party and Kakushin Club, whom he consulted regarding the formation of the ministry The prince regent previously had refused to accept the resignation of the Kivoura government, deferring such acceptance until the selection of A& successor, in accordance with Jap- anese tradition An _imperial messenger with Prince Saionji, the elder states- man, vesterday. Viscount Kato at one time served under Prince Saionji as a cabinet member and it was con- sidered as a foregone conclusion that Saionji's dictum would assure selec- tion of Kato as the new premier. Member of Nobility. The new cabinet leader is a dis- tinguished member of the Japanese nobility. He has had a long and suc- cessful career in governmental af- fairs A graduate of the law college of the Imperial Tokio University in 1881, he served in the foreign office, was transferred to the finance office and eventually became director of the banking bureau and taxation bureau. later he returned to the foreign of- fice. From 1894 to 1899 he represent- ed Japan in England. In 1900 and 1901 he minister of foreign af- fairs and again in 1912 and 1913 he consulted JAPAN STILL OBSERVING GENTLEMEN’S AGREEMENT Rushing Natives to U. S. Before Exclusion Law Becomes Effec- tive Held Not a Violation. By the Associated Press. TOKIO, June 9.—Commenting on the government subsidy of ships rushing Japanese to America before the exclusion law becomes effective, officials pointed out today that Japan still is observing the ‘gentlemen’s agreement” with the United States and that all Japanese who will enter the United States before the exclu- sion measure goes into effect are en- titled to do so under the arrange- ment. ‘The ‘government is not attempting to aid an unwarranted immigration to America, they declared. Japan will continue to observe the “gentlemen's agreement” until it is formally de- nounced, the spokesmen asserted. Reports in the vernacular press that the ~United States has _protested against the subsidizing of ships to carry the immigrants to America were denied at the foreign office and the American embassy. BRITISH SHOW WORRY. Papers Concerned Over Trouble at Tokio Hotel. By the Associated Press. LONDON, June 9.—Newspaper com- ment here on the anti-American dem- onstration at the Imperial Hotel at Tokio is_tinctured with anxiety. The Morning Post, expressing smpathy with both the Americans and Japanese, says the former have the legitimate ambition to protect their country against a “peaceful i THE E vasion,” which might threaten Its economic stability, while the latter have a legitimate grievance. ,“It is one of the most difficult and dangerous problems besetting our age,” the paper says. “It is a mani- festation of a racial struggle which, unless carefully handied, may re- plunge the world into bloodshed." The Daily Mail expresses satisfac- tion that the relations of the two countries have not yet been strained beyond the point where the trouble can be mended. The Daily Express thinks it would be the grossest folly to minimize the possibllity of a sudden and malignant expansion of such demonstrations as that in Toklo. It urges the United States to attempt to bridge the aif- ferences by frank discussibn with Japan, and advises Japan to con- demn’ the demonstration and take evewy step to prevent its recurrence. The diplomatic correspondent of the Daily Telegraph says the inci- dent in Tokio has added to the gen- eral and increasing anxiety in diplo- matic circles, and expresses fear over the outcome.
