At the Washington fonference, Baron Kato confessed himself a liberal. _ But the power of the militarists has proved too subtle him. The Japanese general staff has insulted Baron t. and defied Japan's parliamentary system of govern- ‘ment py selling to Marshall Chang Tso-lin all the Jap- ‘anese war stores at divostok. Chang Tso-lin is the lox? of Manchuria and a notorious tool of the Jap- militarists who have designs against China's inde- nee.

That is the way Japan is now secretly gov- 4. The Kato ministry has taken no action to repu- » the sale. Nobody has been removed from office. laron Kato, himself, threatened to resign but has not ollowed this manly and democratic course. "The Japanese people are not responsible for the action af the militalists. Japanese public opinion is opposed to he militarists, but the soldiers stubbornly resist the d of democracy.
