-B—8 THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. (., JANUARY 29, 1933—PART ONE. - —_— JAPANESE PUSHING MANCHURIAN ROAD Expect to Complete System Paralleling Chinese East- ern by 1934. This is the fifth of six articles on Manchukuo by Mr. Keen, staff corre- spondent of "the New York Herald ibune in China. BY VICTOR KEEN. €Copyright, 1933, by the New York Tribune, Inc.) HSINKING (Changchun), Manchu- kuo, December 18.—Japan's long- cherished project for a railway system | in North Manchuria, roughly parallel- | ing the Chinese-Soviet jointly oper- | ated Chinese Eastern Railway and | terminating in an ice-free port on the | Korean coast, will be realized during 1933, according to conmstruction esti- mates just made public. ‘When the present rail gaps have been bridged, a continuous system will b2 available from Tsitsihar via Harbin to the Korean coast, a system entirely in- dependent of the Chinese Eastern Rail: way. The evisting line from Tsitsihar northward to Kushan is be lig extended | eastward to Hailun to connect w Hailun-Hulan Railway terminatin; across the Sungari River from Harbin. A bridge will be built across the Sun gari at or near Harbin and a new line is being constructed from Harbin southward to intersect the east and | west Kirin-Tunhua line. The Kirin- | s being extended to | is already ccnnected | with Rashin, a port on the coast of | Korea. Kushan Line Soon. ‘The section of the new railway sys- tem connecting Kushan with Hailun is being constructed from both termi- | nals and will be completed in February, | 1933. The new line extending south | from Harbin will intersect sthe Kirin- | Tunhua line at Lafa, a_point about 40 | miles east of Kirin. Construction al- | ready has begun at Lafa and the sec- tion will be completed before the end of next year. ‘The unfinished portion of the line from Tunhua to Laoutoukou has al- ready been extended to a point 43| kilometers east of Tunhua and will be completed to Laoutoukou by the end | of 1933. Laoutoukou is on the Korean border approximately 70 miles east of ‘Tunhua. Laoutoukcu already is linked by rail with the port of Rashin. The Harbin-Lafa section of the new railway system parallels the southern branch of the Chinese Eastern Railway, which runs from Harbin to Changchun, connecting at that point with the South Manchuria Reilway. The Kirin-Tun- hua line when extended to Rashin will parallel the eastern branch of the Chi- nese Eastern Railway, which extends 339 miles eastward from Harbin to Suif- enho (Pogranitchnaya) on the Soviet border, connects with a branch of the Soviet-owned Ussuri Railway and finds a sea outlet at Valdivostock, Soviet Russia’s only important Asiatic seaport. When completed, this new Mancha- kuo railway system should divert to the port of Rashin a great deal of the North Manchurian soya . bean _traffic, which otherwise would be routed either over the southern branch of the Chi- nese Eastern Railway to Changchun and thence over the South Manchuria to Dairen, or over the eastern branch of the C. E. R. to Valdivostock. ‘Will Divert Traffic. During the export season of 1930-31 & total of 1,316.292 metric tons of soya beans, bean cake, bean oil and other produce from North Manchuria was shipped via the Chinese Eastern Rail- way and exported through the Port of Vladivostok, while during the same year period 929,964 tons were routed via the southern branch of the C. E. R. to Changchun and thence over the South Manchuria System to Dairen. ‘When the new Manchukuo rail system is completed and in operation it will greatly reduce the value of the south- ern branch of the C. E. R. as a feeder to the South Manchuria Railway and will make a strong bid for a major share in the transportation of North Manchuria produce which is now being exported through Viadivostok. To Japan, the new railway system, aside from its military and stmtegici value, presents the advantage of bring- ing North Manchurian produce, of which Japan is the principal buyer, to Japan by a shorter and consequently much cheaper route than now exists, while on the other hand it will bring Japanese goods to North Manchuria much more cheaply than via Diaren and the South Manchuria Railway. The North Manchukuo farmer should thereby obtain better prices for his produce, and Japan will obtain raw materials more cheaply and get cheaper transportation for her manufactured products exported to North Manchuria. Chinese to Lose. The South Manchuria Railway still | will serve as the main trade artery for | the area which it traverses. The Chi-| nese Eastern Railway, which is jointly | operated by Manchukuo and Soviet | Russia, will be the chief loser from the competition of the new Manchukuo rail system. The South Manchuria Railway has charge of the ccnstruction of the un- finished links in the new transporta- tion system which is being built with | Manchukuo capital, presumably ob- tained from Japanese loans. Thus the | new railways, although Manchukuo in name, will be largely Japanese in sub- stance until Japan's extensive loans to the new government have bzen liquidated. ‘The construction of an east and west railway system from Changchun via Kirin to a port on the coast of Korea has long been one of the favorite proj- ects of the Japanese general military staff. The strategic value to Japan of such a line in the event of war with Soviet Russia is obvious. It would en- able Japan to bring troops into North Manchuria by a land and sea route many hours shorter than via_Dairen and the South Manchurian Railway. The Chinese Eastern Railway, even if it were to be redeemed from Soviet Russia by Manchukuo, would not link | well with the Japanese or Chinese owned rail system in Manchuria, for it is European standard gauge (5 feet) while all of the Japanese and Chinese railways in Manchuria are American standard (4 feet 81; inches). Accord- ingly, rolling stock cannot be inter- changed. Japan Advanced Money. ‘The Changchun-Kirin line was opened for traffic in 1912. Half of the capital for its construction was furnished by Japan on a 25-year loan, which never has been repaid. The Kirin-Tunhua section was completed in 1928, also with apanese capital. . 'll')h‘: southpMmchuria Railway entered into a contract with the Department of Communications of the Chinese govern- ment on May 15, 1928, for the exten- sion of the Kirin-Tunhua line eastward to Laoutoukou, near the Korean border. Japan, by the terms of the agreement, Was to furnish the capital for the proj- ect in the form of a 40-year loan, with an annual interest of 8 per cent. This agreement was never fulfilled by the Chinese and was one of the Chinese- Japanese railway disputes outstanding prior to the September incident of last year. “The port of Rashin at present is not capable of handling heavy draft ships, but @ five-year construction program has been begun which will give the port facilities for berthing large ocean- going vessels. Other railway projects which will completely parallel the wesicr: branch of Chinese Eastern Railway belween Harbin end Manchull are now under discussion in Japanese and Manchukuo circles, but most of these construction plans are still in the “project” stage.
