JAFANK8* TO ACT QUICKLY
In Siberia to Protect Allied War Storm
Hi Vhdivoviork.
i
> *
f,ondon, March ft. ? Tho lirltlsb,
Kreuch. Italian umhau?adors lu Toklo
intended yesterday or today Jointly to
ask J u pan to take the ne<-ossary step*
to safognard allied Interest* in Siberia,
aeeordttng to Tho Daily Mull. Bfi
nowsiwipcr add* that the American am
bassador was not expected to join tho
request but that no disturbing <*onclU~
^ioi)H are to l>e drawn frou? thlls fact,
as no American apposition is expected.
Washington, March i. ? Military ao
tion by Jaimn lu eastern Siberia to
cb?H'k tiorman influence and protect
war stores at Vladlvostock is believed
here to *hj imminent. The U nil ted
States has not yet expressed its views
Inn (lie proj>osed step, Uut it was wild
in diplomatic quarters tonight that
tiu- Japanese probably would move
,,ulckly to meet emergency conditions,
leaving to the pending diplomatic ex- J
changes development of an understand
ing with America apd all the allies
him ?n the scope and purposes of the
enterprise.
While li has no direct bearing upon
the situation in Asiatic Russia , the
news which came today to the Swed
ish legation that Oermany has given
notice of her Intention to occupy the
whole of Finland will tend to hasten
an agreement upon Japan's plans. The
licmniu explanation to the Swedish
foreign ottleef, whilch has protested
against the proceeding, that the ocou
pat ion Is to restore order and without
intent to take permanent iMwscsston,
is regarded as u very clear indication
of what the. Teutons may undertake
in any part of ltussia now that the
holsheviki have been forced to accept
their hard peace terms.
Officials and diplomats here profess
ignorance of what preparations have
tK'on made by Japan for the opera
tions about to be undertaken. As a
matter of course, secrecy has been ob
served, and a strict censorship in re
gard to tho Siberian question is In
force at Toklo. Possibly the next word
u> come out of Japan on tho subject
will be an announcement of something
acVompIlslied.
In this connection, it is recalled that
at the beginnlnlg of the Russo-Japan
ese war. the Japanese noted wlthouot
heralding. Reforo there was any such
formality as a declaration of war, a
Russian tleet bad boon smashed and
the war was half won.
? It has -boon stated in official quar
ters that it is no concern of the en
tente allies nor of America how Japan
u'(>os about the task, once the ques
ton Is Veaehed to give Japuu a fm)
ion Is tvuchod to gllv* Japan a free
hand in eastern Siberia, it Is now con
ceded ttyut no other military or njival
power is In itoosiilon to reudor her any
substantial ahl owing to tin* lack of
available fon^e#. ??
In a diplomatic way.' ttii? situation
has remained unchanged since the mld
hle of last week. The state depart
ment has not ludlcated to the Japanese
government what may be Its view of
the now situation created by tin- sign
lug of i>eaeo articles hy the bolshevlki.
The statement ma do recently hy ViU
count Motono that Japan had a work
Ing agreement wit Ih tlw? entente allies
and America in re&ti rtl to this ques
tion, It is said, has been taken too lit
erally. ( HlW'tuls say what tho viscount
{probably saw that there existed a syin
iwithetilc understundlnlg on- the sub
ject.
In seeking an undersrandllng as to
scope Is'fore going on record as sup
porting the Japanese action, the Amer
ican government Is understood to hold
tliat while It has every confidence In
the proper Intentions of Japan, It would
be easier to convince neutral nations
and moreover would enable America
and the allies to defeat any (ierman
design to organize the discordant t ie
nuMits In Itnssla on the (ierman side,
were there some formal, assurance that
Russian Integrity was not to suffer. A
high olllclal tonight expressed the opin
ion that for this reason the situation
was very delicate and required very
careful treatment at the hands of the
press to avoid embarrassing misun
derstandings.
