Thanks to the Chinese offenslva on Wednesday the situation Is now squarely up to Japan. It remains for her to dlsplosa her own hand in the far east and for the mo ment Japanese strategy seems to be hesitating between a counter offensive and a passive defense. It Is true, however, that there is a marked Inclination In well Informed quarters to regard the Chinese gesture as far less Chinese than American. There Is very good authority for the - suggestion that the ten proposals made by China on Wednesday were made at the Instance of the United States for tha double purpose of placing China ' on record and opening the way for Ja panese declaration. I am reliably Informed that China only reluctantly yielded to American suggestion In making her proposals, whloh have already become the ten commandments of the Chinese situa tion. It Is not suggested that the .tlnited States government had anything 'to do with the character of the Chinese' proposals, although they bear a strlk- ' ing resemblance to certain American propositions which have been advanced In recent years, but It Is indicated that China would never have moved as she -did without American Impulsion. .., . Chinese Proposals Too Vague, i Nevertheless the value of the Chinese move to American strategy hRs been somewhat diminished by the fact that . the Chinese proposals were vague In the extreme. Moreover the Japanese hava for the moment eluded the neces sity of a definite utterance by a perfect ly reasonable request that China In dicate what she means by each of her i, 10 proposals and do what, outside of diplomatic language, we call "get down to brass tacks." The mere westerner knows so little about the realities or the metho.ds of the oriental mind and some of the methods of thought and of action are so different from our own thnt It Is foolish in the extreme to , undertake to interpret Chinese or Jap anese moves or to do more than show ' what they seem to mean. Tt Is worth recalling, too, that, while China and Japan are separated on every other question, they are united In their desire to keep the west out of the east, and China will have the solid support of Japan against any project which suggests International eqntrol, political or economical, i for Needs Pepto-Mangan to Make New, Rich Red Blood Th man whose complexion in pasty 1 has Impure blood.

China's Prnnnslsl RpparHpil China, with the possible exception of that of the four-power oonsortlum. Now, given the tact that China and ; Japan are united on this one large issue, it seems less sure that they are separated on others. Is this Pekln gov ernment controlled by the Japanese? Does the Pekln government control th-4elegatlon which it has sent hefe? Is the Chines policy real or is it In spired by Japanese Influences? Obvi ously these questions cannot be an swered now, but every one who un dertakes to estimate the Slno-Japanese I situation must at every moment ask himself these questions. Japan Om Defensive. Except for these complexities one would say outright thtt it would ap pear that the Chinese manoeuver on Wednesday placed the Japanese In an embarrassing position, placed them on the defensive, and would ultimately force them to make a disclosure of their position. Such a disclosure, It Is clear, may take one or two forms, The Japanese may Imitate Mr Hughes and come out with a broad. general declaration covering the whole subject of the far east. They may, on me contrary, accept the Chinese nro- posals as the basis for discussion and express their opinion on each of the lu as it is discussed in the commit. tee.' My Japanese friends tell me this latter course is now the one that has momentary support. They also tell mo that they were taken by surprise by the cmnese proposals and they express admiration for the skill with which the Chinese seised ths Initiative. This I is tne Japanese statement. There is still another Interesting angle. I am again told by my Jap-1 anese friends that there Is a nrofmmit umorciice ot opinion in the Japanese delegation as to the wisdom or un- wisaom of the suggestion that th Japanese ratio of national strength be increased irom six to seven, that Is, from 60- to 70 per cent. Amnnr h Japanese Journalists, who are more Closely In touch W th Amerlcnn nnln. Ion than their statesmen, there la a I strong feeling that the government win make a mistake If t does not - cept Mr. Hughes' ground as to capital siujiB wunout a protest. This, too, I present' frankly as a Japanese state ment. I Is the ITnlted States nresentlv to nr- I sent a full program f Its own as It did In the naval ouestion or ha. it decided to content itself with waiting unt" Chinese, Japanese andperhaps British petitions have been presented men unaertake tne role of com promiser, seeking to promote agree- ! meni over tne debated points? The question is unanswered, but there is every Indication that at the moment Mr, Hughes Inclines to play the latter roie. In a sense there Is something rMI- culous about the far eastern situation. r,verynoay is waiting for the other fel low to make the first move. China has been egged into making a move, but has couched her statement In such i ague and general terms as to amount to no statement at all. Jaoan has dodged or rather has pushed the thing! dsck Dy asking for a bill of par ticulars. So far the Vnlted States has not moved. Obviously American . dip lomacy would like to ant China anil Japan on record, but there are ebvlousfs) oimcumes which up to date have Diocked tne American desire. , Bargaining and Barter. All of which is another wav to savl that the far eaBtern ouestliins are going to be settled by a process of Bargaining and barter. China and Ja pan will have to make big concessions. weuner or tnem. however, desires to concede anything until it knows what me maximum expected Is. since obviously neither desires to give away aiming mm ne aoes not have to. ji me Japanese and Chinese are really lighting a "sure-enough battle" men oDvlously the Japanese will promptly ask the Chinese what guar antees the Pekln government can alve tor tne protection of railroads. oroD-1 orty and lives provided Japan troops are withdrawn, and then we shall have Derore us at once the whole question or me auiicuities and chaos in China bui it is still far from clear that eith er side desires to go to the bottom of tne far eastern question since both nave a common deslra to get the "bar-1 Darian out. There are many resemblances be tween the present situation and that in .pans, sinoa the conference, has gone underground we are back In thai golden age of the press agent Thel main sources of news now are the of ficial spokesmen of the several dele gations, the unofficial snokeaman who gives voice to what the Europeans call "officious" declarations, and ths more or less Inspired press agents who glvo circulation to every sort of rumor de signed to hurt the other fellow's slue ana neip their own. The result is necessarily a stream of contradictory and critical comment, such as everyone who reoalls the fans conferenca rifmembers as characteristic output of each day's work. If for no othsr reason than mat a long period of this press cam. palgnlng might produce deolorahle ra suits it seems likely that those vho are in control of the conference will seek to make events march rapidly. After all, the conference beiran i.mi.t than anybody hoped: the possibility cf achievement Is larger than anyone uuum nave imagined a month aro and. after the most magnlficlent entrance on record, what the responsible states men now deslra most is a happy end muick exit.
