LAMONT GOES TO JAPAN 1^
BEHALF OF CHINESE LOAN
Thomas W. Lamont, of J. P. Mor-.

:his week for Japan and China. The

s, as representative of the American
ranking group of the Chinese consortium,
to confer with members of
;he Japanese group. Mr. Lamont will
Uso confer with'the leading Chinese
inancial representatives.
It is believed that Mr. Lamont will |
,ry to persuade the Japanese mem-j
>ers of the consortium to recede
rom their present position with regard
to financing China. 7/hen the
:onsortium was formed, in May of j
ast year, it was understood that no:
ountry should attempt to cultivate j
ipecial "spheres of influence" and
hat, so far as practicable, all options'
hen held by members of the errouD, _
vhich includes the United States,'
ireat Britain, France and Japan,'fi'
hould be turned into the consortium M
is a whole. These principles, in a j|
:sneral way, were agreed to by all jf
if the groups, both through their ]
tanking and diplomatic agents, but It
span later expressed some reserva-jlj
ion in regard to certain portions of U
3hina in which she foels she has par- if
icular interests. This attitude on U
he part of Japan has resulted in de-1
aying the consortium. It is Mr. La- jf
nont's intention to find out definitely! If
vhether Japan intends to enter the If
onsortium on a basis satisfactory to
he other nations.
